This the perfect spot for an overnight visit. Headed through and need a break for the night? Pull in here. I would not want to spend a week because it's not like there's a lot to do in Van Horn, but if you want a very comfortable and welcoming place to stay for the night, this is where you want to pull in. Level dirt lot with pull through spots. Nice clean bathrooms and showers along with free WiFi and laundry. Staff is very friendly and helpful. This not Paradise but it's the next best thing for a good night's rest.

We LOVED this place. Flat surface, easy hookups, AMAZING SHOWERS, VERY clean. Top notch laundry facility and propane on site for refills. Staff were kind and very helpful. Great place to stay.

This isn't "fancy" but it is exactly what is needed. Texas is HUGE, and driving an rv across it requires overnight stops. The manager was friendly, the site was easy in and out, and good rates for full hook up's. I will definitely stay here again.

For a small RV park, it was very clean. Tidy Had everything you needed? And it's such a reasonable price. I would go back anytime and would recommend this to anyone. You can see him working all day long. Doing things and making things better easy access off the highway pull through sights. I'd raid him a ten out of ten

Easy off n on the expressway. Sites were pull through and long enough for our 38ft fifth wheel. Full hookups for under 40$. Part of the park appeared to be for long term RVers but all of park was clean and well maintained. Enclosed dog run available and was clean. Plenty of fuel options for both gas and diesel. Was just an over night stop. There was a train but never heard any during the night. Owners/manager was very kind. I would definitely stop for the night here again.

This is a good stop on I-10. All the services worked well. Easy access. Like all Van Horn RV parks, had some road noise and trains. $28 plus tax is a good enough price and they have some discounts. You can take a short walk to the Historic Hotel which has a restaurant or if you want some GREAT Mexican food, go to Gilbert’s across the street and order any dish with brisket or green sauce but I think they are only breakfast and lunch.

No frills, but the spots are level and relatively easy to get into. Staff is nice. Have stayed here twice every year for an overnight stay on cross-country trips for about 15 years. We've been through multiple names and owners together.

This will be my third time staying at this park. I think it's a new owner. Hands down way better! DOGS CAN PLAY WITHOUT GOAT HEADS! The previous times I stayed here, the goat heads were so bad. You couldn't even walk out of your camper without your dogs getting them in their feet. They have been killing them off and I just spent 30 minutes in the dog park throwing a ball. For those that travel with pets. This is very important for us after a long day on the road.

Good clean park. Great restrooms with lots of hot water. Used to be a passport America park. Now it isn't and cost is 32.00 per nite. Management helped me set up after my accident.

Having stayed elsewhere in Van Horn before, sticker burrs seem to be in abundance, but this place managed to keep them much more under control than most places. My dog had far less problems at this place, and the dog run is nicely graveled so no sticker burrs in the dog's feet this time. The bathrooms are super nice, to the point where my 16 year old son complimented them. The showers are roomy. The reception was wonderful with a very considerate and polite person to check us in. We will definitely pick this place again.
