Downtown Texas RV Park

Downtown Texas RV Park provides full hookups for RVs up to 50 feet along the San Gabriel River between Thorndale and Rockdale. Sites split between riverside spots along the bank and more developed areas near the road, where a restaurant and bar operate on-site. The river offers a cooling option during hot Texas weather, though water levels vary seasonally.

The campground occupies the historical site of a Spanish colonial mission, with interpretive markers detailing the area's past including stories of garrison commanders and priests from the colonization period. Campers can find camping near Rockdale for additional options in this rural region. The location serves primarily as an overnight stop for visitors with family in the area rather than a destination campground.

Neat park with unique history.

This park is located between Thorndale and Rockdale. There isn’t much to do in the area and we only stay here when visiting family in the area.

The park is pretty nice with full hookup sites down on the bank of the San Gabriel river. The river isn’t much but it’s a place to escape the Texas heat. There are also more developed spots out by the road. By the more developed area there is also a restaurant and bar.

The campground sits on the site of one of the old Spanish missions from the days when Spain was colonizing Texas. There’s a neat story about the garrison commander killing one of the Priests in a feud over an affair. There are historical markers that speak to the history in the area.

If you’re in the area and you’re looking for a spot to stay at then you really can’t go wrong here.
