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)

Tucked away behind a vast pine timber farm, this quiet campsite offers a simple, peaceful escape surrounded by tall trees and fresh woodland air. The site opens into a cleared, sandy area beneath the pines, creating plenty of room to spread out while still feeling private and secluded.
At the heart of the campsite is a stone fire pit—perfect for evening campfires, cooking over an open flame, or gathering to relax after a day outdoors. Nearby log seating adds a rustic touch and makes it easy to sit back and enjoy the warmth and crackle of the fire.
The main setup includes a spacious three-room tent that provides dedicated areas for sleeping, relaxing, and storing gear, offering more comfort than a standard single-room tent. Beyond that, there is ample open space for additional tents, making this spot ideal for families, small groups, or multiple campers who want to stay together without feeling crowded.
Guests can expect a quiet, back-to-nature experience—ideal for stargazing, campfire cooking, storytelling, and unplugging from daily life. The surrounding pine forest offers a calming backdrop, with natural sounds and shaded areas throughout the day. This campsite is best suited for those seeking simplicity, privacy, and a genuine outdoor camping atmosphere rather than developed amenities.

If you’re good with tiny spaces, this is the place for you. It’s better than your average camping because you have all your amenities. Understanding this is a tiny space not meant for more than 2. It’s like camping but without pitching a tent yet the luxury of modern amenities. Everything you need for an overnight stay or a few nights away.

The campsite is lovely. We especially appreciated the fenced in yard because of our dogs. The little screened cabana was also a nice touch, and the area is nicely lighted at night. We will definitely plan to stay here again.

Suntastic exceeded my hopes. It's very clean, spacious, and outfitted with everything one could possibly need. The hookups worked great. The outdoor shower is a bonus. The strung lights come on and go off at the right times. This host has gone out of their way to create a welcoming, lovely, comfy and safe place to enjoy your RV and the beach.

We had an amazing stay at the Mom Mollie Glamping Tent, and honestly, the horrible rain during our trip only proved how great this place is. If you want a host who truly cares about your experience, stay here.
The campsite at Khushatta Hills Ranch was really nice and well-maintained, but what truly made the difference was Mrs. Ingrid. She was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and available on-site for anything we needed, giving us total peace of mind. We felt so well taken care of despite the weather. We’ve already decided we will definitely be back for a second visit—hopefully with a little more sunshine next time!

I have stayed here several times. Our host Jennifer is the absolute best. The property is well maintained in great proximity to the beach, the ferry, food, and groceries.
If you need to escape for a weekend or you need a Basecamp for a week long galveston adventure, this is the place to stay.

I think I found a hidden gem for the price of a piece of coal. This camp ground thought of it all. Clean, convenient, and quiet. I was able to relax and reorganize in the midst of my trip. I will definitely mark this as a place to stop again. Tip: book through hip camp for the deal.
The address takes you across the street onto a narrow road. Watch for their sign.

We had a great time here. Cherise was really hospitable and greeted us upon our arrival and showed us around. In the morning we had scheduled for the complimentary animal feeding and the experience was awesome. Cherise met us at the barn as scheduled at 9 AM sharp and provided us with a good amount of treats for all the farm animals. It was really nice to be able to give the donkeys, goats, Horse, horses, miniature cow, and chickens their morning breakfast. Cherise even allowed my two siblings a ride on one of the horses which we thought was really nice and a great experience for the kids. Oh, and she has a really beautiful turkey and peacocks on site as well. Overall, we had a fun time here and would definitely love to come back to check out the glamping tent.

Overview
About
Your next camping expedition near Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge will place you amid 30,000 acres of pristine bottomland hardwood forest, a testament to the natural beauty of Trinity River's expanse. Established in 1994, this refuge is a sanctuary for a myriad of wildlife, from the majestic bald eagle to the elusive Swainson’s warbler. Camping near Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge, you're not just setting up a tent; you're stepping into a world where nature's symphony plays around the clock. Whether it's the flight of swallow-tailed kites, the stealthy movements of American alligators, or the gentle rustling of river cane and sycamore trees, every moment here is a sensory delight. The refuge boasts approximately 37 miles of primitive trails spread across 10 day-use areas, each offering its own unique perspective of this vibrant ecosystem. For water enthusiasts, Champion Lake and Pickett’s Bayou are havens for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. And as you navigate these waters, keep an eye out for the alligator gar, alligator snapping turtles, and perhaps even the Rafinesque’s big-eared bats.
When to go
The best time to visit Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge is from March to May and late August to early November, aligning with migratory bird seasons. Summer brings lush vegetation but also higher temperatures and humidity. Winter offers cooler weather but less wildlife activity. Avoid periods of heavy rain as trails and areas may flood.
Know before you go
- Check the National Weather Service for Trinity River water levels before your visit, as trails may close due to flooding.
- Bring insect repellent and sunscreen for protection against the elements.
- Respect the wildlife by observing from a distance and not feeding them.
- Be prepared for primitive trails; carry a map, compass, and plenty of water.
- Visit the refuge headquarters for maps, brochures, and the latest information on trail conditions.
