We stayed for 3 nights in the RV park with our 21 foot travel trailer. You can't beat the location and the price. It was $16 a night and we have a State Park Pass so there was no per person charge. The park was clean and the park rangers and workers were very visible. The spaces are small, but... more

I have been going with my family to Mustang Island every year for the last 20 years, and we couldn't imagine spending our annual vacation anywhere else!! The area is amazing! There are always plenty of things to do and see no matter how many times you've been there! I even took my 3 month old daughter last year and... more

Getting to the 2d story bathrooms along interminable concrete ramps is torture. Park rangers were distant and visible; wish one had mentioned the tent-crushing storm on... more

I just stayed 2 nights @ Mustang Island State Park. The showers/restrooms need lots of work. Paint peeling everywhere... Texas Parks & Wildlife now charges an entry fee for persons 13 & over. I don't think they're using the new fee increase for any improvements. The campsite was nice - just be prepared to hike 1/4 mile to the restrooms... more
