Serendipity Bay RV Resort

Serendipity Bay RV Resort operates as a private waterfront facility in Palacios, accommodating RVs up to 70 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections. The resort sits directly on the water with boat access available alongside standard drive-in entry. Sites feature concrete pads, though spacing between RVs is tight with limited room for vehicle parking once positioned.

Amenities include restrooms with showers, laundry facilities, a pool, playground, fitness room, and a heated community building where pets are not permitted. The property maintains a fishing pier and small fenced dog run. Mosquitoes become active during mid-morning and late afternoon hours, particularly problematic given the waterfront location. For additional camping options in the region, campers can explore campgrounds around Matagorda. The surrounding town offers minimal services with only a few restaurants and small stores available.

Guests frequently mentioned the well-equipped facilities and pet-friendly amenities at this waterfront RV resort. Several reviews noted concerns about tight site spacing with limited setup room.

By the water

Nicely equipped RV park right on water. Paid a few more dollars to have a pull thru site with FHU, cable & level concrete pad to pull on to. Nice big bathrooms with showers, laundry, pool, playground, gym room, small fenced dog run and large heated community room. No pets allowed in laundry/community room.

Peaceful but sites too close together

Very well-maintained and pet-friendly RV park with various amenities such as a pool, fishing pier, and dog park. Sites are very close together with little room to set up outside between RVs. Very little room to park vehicle once RV is in place and limited space to back in. Enjoyed the peaceful sunrises and sunsets and the constant breeze was a plus to keep the humidity and heat down. Take plenty of anti-mosquito repellent, as around mid-morning and late afternoon, the mosquitoes come out in force. A good location for those wishing to fish, but not sightseeing. The town has very few amenities and only a couple of restaurants and small stores.
