The Jacales loop is quiet and dark, but it's really just camping in a big parking lot with a picnic table, shade pavilion and grill for each site. There are water and electric at all sites, and each site has two large parking spaces.

Bathroom facilities are old and small. Cleanliness was ok, but moldy shower curtains are gross. (Womens and Men's each have one shower and both curtains were moldy.)

The bike trail that runs to town and to the historic locations was great. The park itself is a great place to learn about history, but we wouldn't spend more than a couple of nights in the Jacales loop while checking out the area.

Went to Goliad State Park unsure of what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised. My wife and I camped at the Jacales loop with a few friends. We were not expecting much given the close proximity to other sites but it turned out there was plenty of room to go around. The facilities were in good condition and the shower had amazing water pressure. Only downside was there was only one shower in the women’s restroom. Other thank that, everything was great.

I’m from Goliad, so whenever I feel like getting outdoors I can just drive 15 minutes down the road to the park and enjoy a day hike or a weekend out in the woods. The park is awesome lots of Historic sites and lots of history in such a small town. The park has Tent sites, small cabins for rent and restrooms with showers that are always clean. They also have RV hook ups with plenty of room and shade trees. The nature trail is nice too. Definitely recommend for anyone that has not visited before.

This Texas State Park is located in Goliad Texas. This is in the south central area of the state between Victoria and Austin on Highway 183. The park has some great historical sites including a 16th century Spanish mission. The campground is situated along the San Antonio River. You can kayak along the 6 mile long kayak paddle trail or try your luck at fishing. The campground is well maintained and offers a nice range of sites from tent to RVs and small cabins. The sites are located along the river with no privacy. They have some walk in tent sites as well. The town of Goliad is a hidden gem with a rich history and some cool antique shops and cafes. We plan to stop again here on our next trip to the coast.
