Tent Reviews

Very nice campground, walking distance to the beach and a nice restaurant. Clean facilities . We camped in a tent and had a little covered patio. Swimming pool is currently under repair.

We've stayed at the KOA to camp about 5 times already and the upgraded spaces are so much better! Pergola and patio furniture is so cozy. Bathrooms/Showers/Pool are always clean! Love taking my family there, its our favorite way to enjoy SPI now!

I always have a good time and it's my park of choice every time I go.

Aside from unexpected cold and wind, I had a great time. Too bad about the Pier 19 fire but there were other places to eat and drink! Will definitely be going back to play more on the beach when it warms back up!

My only complaint was that the times I tried to take a shower the water began hot but then turned cold. I hate cold showers.

We had an awesome site with great views. The staff was extremely helpful and polite. This is definitely a return to campground.

This park is excellent for RVs but not suitable for tent camping. The pool is awesome! The park is beautiful and well-maintained. The problem is the tent sites are separate, far from bathrooms, and on the entrance to the park and restaurant. Left early as I could not sleep due to the traffic in and out and long walk to bathroom.

The tent spots are in the wrong location, to much traffic there. I personally think the tents should be in the back of the campground, where there is less traffic. But the employees where very courteous and helpful.

All the workers I've encountered were super helpful and nice. The only problem was the distance between the tent camping and the restroom.

We have been there all summer and truly enjoyed the convenience of the laundromat, s’mores night and the clean grounds and friendly atmosphere. The staff is very helpful, friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home. Thank you �

Conveniently and easy to use. Ladies at front desk were accommodating. WIFI at the tent area and calling customer service went nowhere. Walking by the dumpsters to the Pier was horrendous due to the smell.

The staff was amazing, I was somewhat annoyed by the amount of traffic at the park. Also the gravel pad was nice to set tent up on but there were lots of stickers still. At $57 a night to camp I expected a little more

Our stay was great, very friendly staff, and helpful. Definitely will be staying there in the future. I will highly recommend this to my family and friends. The only problem was power going out and 1 restroom stall in one of the restroom areas, other than that we had a great time. Thank you to all the staff.

Some of the staff were very rude about security. I understand it was 4th of July weekend and that they wanted to keep "the riff raff" (their words, not mine) out, but when my kids drove out to meet us, which I had informed the front office about and had already gotten a second car permit/wristbands for them, the staff member went out of her way to interrogate them and made them feel very unwelcome

Booked a tent/camp spot mistakenly, they were happy to accommodate us still. We had a great weekend

Great staff just hated the environment, we had to get a bug net to keep the roaches away from our dog. We sealed up the tent because roaches were all over our tent, our tent is mounted to our truck. The mice that came out as well were horrible. We had to be done cooking and packed up by 10 to avoid the roaches. Spent one night there and decided to camp on the beach instead. Waste of money.

Everything was great! The only thing was the pool looked really green and cloudy and it had a lot of debris floating around edge of pool. We did not get in it ..it was really full of people.

Super clean bathrooms/ Showers. Extremely friendly and welcoming staff. Wish there was a actual pier that we could fish off off. You cant fish off of Pier 19, you can do wade fishing but I was expecting a actual pier. But over all super nice place and staff.

They put us in a spot next to the swamp. Huge cockroaches were everywhere and rats too. They said they would spray but didn't. In fact they blew it off and said they were palmetto bugs. They had a shower at the pool with no drain...water pooled and was nasty and hot.

Friendly staff. Shannon went out of his way to help us. We will definitely stay here again.

We are work campers and this location and KOA were perfect for our next temporary home on our winter journey. Staffing is great and helpful. This was our first visit to South Padre and didn't know what to expect. This KOA was a perfect place to stay. This end of the island seems to be where the large RV parks are located. Isla Blanca Park is another large RV park located next door and run by Cameron county. Several smaller beach camping ares are also run by the county along State Park rd 100. South Padre island and Port Isabela have plenty of restaurants and services available in a short drive. Several fun attractions are just minutes away from the park. The weather was cold and rainy most of the week we camped at this KOA. Since we were work camping, the weather didn't really matter and we didn't get a chance to take advantage of many of the amenities. We did inspect those we didn't take advantage of. WiFi, laundry and shower facilities are distributed well throughout the park and worked well. Propane is also available on site and not at an overly inflated price. At the end of the pier is a good restaurant and several types of water excursions. Just wish we had more time and better weather to properly check it all out. Defiantly a place to stay longer than a week. The park is on the bay side of the island, has a lot of palm trees and quite pretty. One thing I thought was cool about the park is it seems to be built on an old water pumping station. I wasn't able to confirm this, but it looks like the office and community rooms are built inside old water reservoir tanks. The swimming pool seems to be built on an old outdoor water holding pool. Some large water distribution pipes protrude out of the ground in some areas and are integrated into the concept of the whole park. Very well done. Hope we can find our way to this KOA again.
