Colorado River RV Campground

     Colorado River RV Campground is just outside of Columbus, Texas.  It is on the Texas Colorado River as opposed to the Colorado River flowing through the Grand Canyon.  (Who knew? there are two Colorado Rivers)  We were immediately impressed with how green the park is. It had some damage from Hurricane Harvey, but you couldn’t tell other than the bathrooms have been rebuilt and the banks of the river have fallen some, eating several campsites. The campground is divided into two sections, one being near the pool and courts while the other near the river. Both sections are equally nice. The sites vary from 50 amps with full hookups (where you have to pay $3 per night extra), to 50/30 with full hookups with the option of using the 50 or not and 30 amp sites with water only. Since we were only staying for three nights and the weather wasn’t too hot we opted for the later. The park has a small pool, and indoor hot tub, a mini-golf course, a basketball court and a pickleball court. The rec. facilities are in the welcome center at the park entrance. The Campground is well maintained and has a beautiful park-like setting, with lots of birds and deer. If you’re looking to get away from it all, this is the place to go. Nearby is the town of Columbus that is very picturesque with some historic buildings. An hour of walking around will cover it.  Unless the Confederate Museum is open (pictured left).  It cost a dollar looks like it may take some time to tour.  Overall, we love the feel of this park and will definitely return here in the future.
