Luxury RV resorts in Galveston, Texas
1. Galveston Island KOA Holiday
Posted by Galveston Island KOA on Tuesday, August 10, 2021
Best for: Beach lovers and anglers
With a stay at Galveston Island KOA Holiday, you’ll be located just half an hour away from downtown Galveston. This makes for an ideal base for all kinds of travelers, from those seeking city excursions to those hoping for easy beach access.
On-site entertainment doesn’t disappoint, either. The resort has basketball and pickleball courts, as well as a private catch-and-release fishing pond, which I’d love to spend time by. An outdoor pool, hot tub, and lazy river also make for great spots to relax after a day of exploring.
What guests are saying about their RV resort experience:
“This is one of the best campgrounds we have ever been to. If you like campgrounds that have a lot of organized things to do in a stunning location at a great winter rate, this is your place. First, the location is perfect with the easily accessible ocean and awesome ocean front properties to look at or take a walk by. Both are just across the road. A perfect blend of nature with restaurants and stores 10 minutes away. The campgrounds and road are quiet. Grassy plains pretty much surround the campgrounds. Each campsite is pretty big with well maintained grass and palm trees. For activities, we saw musicians, organized bingo and card games, Easter egg hunt, craft fairs, weekend nighttime movies, a talk on how to best vacation in Alaska, and on and on. 2 to 4 activities every day that don’t interfere if you don’t want to participate. There is a great playground for kids. A lazy river and a pool. They are very dog friendly. An amazing and memorable place to vacation that is incredibly well managed. We absolutely loved it and highly recommend it!” - by Google reviewer, George Hinkens

What guests are saying about their RV resort experience:
“This is a great RV Resort! The concrete pads are large with lots of room in front of your RV or coach and still room to park vehicles. The resort is clean and well maintained. The pool is beautiful and the amenities are nice. The beach is across the street, it’s a busy highway so use caution if walking. It’s a little ways from the downtown core (The Strand) and the beach with all the bars and restaurants, but it’s worth to park near the activity for the day and go explore. Would stay here again!” - by Google reviewer, Leah Longaphie

Trevor Brown was extremely friendly and helpful. Each time I saw Trevor, he had a smile on his face and asked how I was. He graciously assisted me the very first day I was there in opening the doors to laundry/shower area (as for some reason I had issues keying in the code - lol). It was also a very quiet location. I would definitely stay here again.” - by Google reviewer, Gail Taylor

What guests are saying about their RV resort experience:
“This newish RV resort was a very pleasant find. The location on a salt marsh and is quite beautiful. It is located outside of town and has a very natural feel with no crowds. At the end of the park, there is a long sandy trail out to a bird rookery that is great for a hike. If you get a premium spot, be prepared for the fact that they are very tight when you put out slides. The one big drawback… mosquitoes. Come prepared with bug spray and be sure you have screens if you open windows. The staff was very pleasant and helpful.” - by Google reviewer, woglinda
