Park on the Lake
As an RV camper, you know that lakeshore camping is rare to find. At the Park on the Lake, 50 of the 100 sites lie right on the shore of Lake Conroe. One of the best camping spots in Texas, you can tow a boat or enjoy water sports, fishing, swimming, or just lounging at the shoreline. Your four-legged companion is sure to enjoy walks around the lake at this pet-friendly venue or some swims in the shallow portion of the water. Check out the dog run that allows you to take your pet off the leash for some basic agility play.
At the RV park, use the exercise room, do laundry at the on-site Laundromat, use the swimming pool or heated spa and clean up after a day of fun in one of the nine shower stalls. Use the boat ramp free of charge and make use of one of the 16 boat piers. Contact the park operators for seasonal, weekly and daily rates.
