Waterfront RV Port on Bolivar Peninsula. Water, sewer, and electric (20-30-50 amp panel) Covered RV spot with a screen porch. Property is fenced and dogs are welcome. The screened has a dining table with chairs, and also stores some patio chairs to use on the property. They are really great to sit on the dock! There is also a charcoal grill and a crab trap for you to use. (You need a fishing license and bait. Chicken bones works great!)
Fishing is great here... the canals have been dredged and folks are catching right of the back of their lots. Community fishing area is on the end of both Van Sant and Mabry, Mabry has a boat ramp. These you cast right off a drop to the intracoastal. Beach Access via community gate at end of street. Combination for those will be shared in arrival instructions.
Spot is a residential lot... It is 60 x 130. Canal City is a quiet residential area. The back side fronts on the water. You will probably see more seagulls and purple martins than people.
We have weekly discounts. Message me and I can go over them because the Hipcamp platform makes them difficult. It works out to approximately 7 nights for the price of 5.
Be prepared: Bolivar has mosquitoes. This is the coast. If it has rained they can be really bad. The county sprays on a regular rotation but it can be bad. They tend to swarm when you pull in. Spray helps. We also send recommendations for what sprays work best for us in the arrival instructions. We do not offer refunds for mosquitoes. We have never found them unmanageable, and the screen porch keeps them almost entirely away.
We are east of Rollover Pass. Easiest to arrive through Winnie and south on 124. Unless you are coming from Galveston or southeast Houston it is probably shorter. The ferry is fun (dolphins and such) but the waits can be long. Also: Do not bring loose propane tanks or gasoline cans on the ferry, they will send you away. (Propane on RV is fine, but that is all they allow)

It was a great little spot to be near the Gulf breeze and sounds of the waves!
The camping areas are well maintained. Nice little path to the beach from the site.
We walked along the beach to Peveto Woods and spent time on the trails- maintained but also somewhat primitive.
It was a great stay, even though we had to leave early because a storm with high winds coming through.
Glenn was very responsive and helpful.
We recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quirky, laid-back coastal experience.

We loved our stay! It was a quick overnight on a long road trip but the animal sanctuary caught our attention!
You do need to make sure you have clear expectations. It's not a typical campground. The family home is part of it and the bathroom and shower are separate but attached to the main home.
Each camp site it private and have a couple different options for amenities depending what you are looking for. From primitive camp to tent provided!
There is an extra sink, counter and microwave accessible as well.
The animals are all over. The dogs are sooooo sweet and lovey. There are goats, emus, turkeys, chickens, roosters, peacocks, horses, cats, dogs.
We did arrive late at night it was dark and despite the very clear instructions for arrival we struggled finding the camp spots. The hosts responded quickly and guided us to our options!
It was an amazing experience. It was quiet peaceful and beautifully dark! We would definitely return!

It was good for value but nothing exciting. Kids loved the animals roaming everywhere but the RV powered sites are right at the entrance of the property, little charm. There is only one 30 Amp outlet so if the other site is using it, bad luck. There is no water connecting near by either, hoses are available from the house but we did not feel comfortable to get a use them. Host did not respond to any of our messages via Hipcamp and when we arrived and called to know where to go, the phone line was disconnected. So we had to go knocking. We did not feel welcome really.
Price was good though and it might be an oasis (as describe) when camping a little more in but from the site we had, it was just a parking spot.

The natural wetlands of the Snow White Sanctuary were absolutely beautiful! We arrived late (well after dark) but the hosts came out and showed us where we could set up our tent. The dogs were so friendly and came out to greet us. We heard the horses too, but we only saw them in the morning. (Callie, the mare, wasn't too fond of being pet, but she didn't mind being admired from afar :) The only downside to this location is that there aren't really any hiking trails (only one that goes around their property, definitely less than a mile). There was a slight mishap as we were leaving (there are a lot of dogs, mostly rescued, at this location and their neighbors) and some of them got in a dogfight near the gate. But Alyssa came out and it was resolved. The animals are all very tolerant towards people, and I would recommend Snow White Sanctuary to anyone wanting to experience Louisiana's natural wetlands in a peaceful, animal-filled environment!
