This is an absolutely amazing and beautiful RV park that offers exceptional hospitality, genuine care for their guests, a wonderful view of the panhandle with gorgeous sunsets, and all at an incredibly affordable rate. It has FHU’s, military discounts, great souvenir and supplies store, immaculate restrooms with showers, animals on site, Route 66 decor, old cars, wagons and WiFi. Make this your home away from home. You have to stop here. The town of Shamrock, TX has all you’d hope for on the historic Route 66 and delicious restaurants where many will deliver to you, if needed. I can’t say enough about these amazing folks who bend over backwards to ensure you enjoy your stay. Call them, you won’t regret it. This is now my go to place while traveling through this part of Texas.

Huge site's with full hookups next to the farm. The staff is so friendly! Our truck broke down and they were able to accommodate us for an additional night and gave us suggestions for mechanics. While waiting for the mechanic we enjoyed the farm by playing horseshoes, feeding the animals and swinging. Highly recommend staying here!

This park is a hidden gem, we traveled from Oklahoma to the Grand Canyon, stayed at numerous RV parks the past few days and by far, Texas Route 66 was our favorite. Even though it’s off I-40, we were parked back in the back under gorgeous large trees and highway noise never bothered us. All the amenities you could ask for were available.

This was such a nice place to camp for the night, right off old Route 66. We would have loved to stay another night but because of time restraints, we couldn't. Clean and well maintained with chickens and ducks and surronded by feilds of grain, it had a farm feel for this old country gal. Highly recommend.

Great place to stay. Right now it looks like they are redoing the bathrooms so no doors on stalls and one shower. Chickens, goats, donkey, cows and geese to see and pet. Right on route 66. There is noise from the freeway. Gift shop with old candy like candy cigarettes and red wax lips. And an enclosed dog fence, good size too.

If you want a clean quiet place to get off of the road, take a hot shower and do some laundry, this is a place to stay. They have a nice medium size dog play area. Beautiful laundry. Great showers. No pool or playground but room for bicycles. A number of guests are long term, working in the area, but their sites are well kept and tidy. The park is gated. Walmart delivers.

Never met the previous owners. It changed ownership just as we were getting there. But the new owner was great. Prompt with issuing refund on the deposit after I left, didn't even need to call him about it. Other than that the showers and laundry facilities were nice/clean. My dad had a problem with the power post, owners replaced it in under an hour.

We wanted to park our RV near my husband’s job and found Texas RV park. We were very pleased with our experience. Very clean and quiet. Management was always available and responded promptly to all questions and requests. We will definitely stay here again. We only moved because my husband’s job relocated him. Thanks Sam you’re the best.
