The Great Outdoors

Although Katy is located in the suburbs of Houston, it has two great state parks right on its doorstep, so you can experience the best of the great outdoors without any inconveniences.

The Stephen F. Austin State Park is 20-minute drive west of Katy, situated upon the Brazos River. It’s a great place to relax, go fishing, biking, or to take advantage of one of the many hiking trails or nature tours in a picturesque setting that ranges from wetlands to forests. The park offers overnight RV camping, with 40 full hook-up sites and 20 partial, and there is also a store. A privately run 18-hole golf course is situated just next to the park, for those who have a competitive sporting streak.

The Brazos Bend State Park is located at Needville, less than an hour’s drive south of Katy. It is also on the Brazos River and has no less than six fishing lakes and 37 miles of trails. The park is home to an array of animal and marine life, including resident alligators. There is also a store, the George Observatory (which makes up part of the Houston Museum of Natural Science), and some partial hookup sites for RV camping on the grounds.

The whole Houston area is home to numerous hiking trails, such as the Memorial Park Red Trail, the Anthills Trail and the George Bush Hike and Bike Trail. Travel a bit farther in your Katy rental RV and there’s no shortage of Texas state parks and historic sites within comfortable distances, such as Galveston Island State Park, San Jacinto Battleground Historic State Site and Sheldon Lake State Park.

RV Parks

There’s a large number of nearby RV parks just a short distance from central Katy and Houston, so you’ll have plenty of choices when it comes to parking your Katy camper rental, without getting too far away from all of the great amenities and attractions.

Katy Lake RV Resort is in close proximity to Houston. Set on 18 acres, with a six-acre lake, Katy Lake RV Resort is only 10 minutes away from a wide variety of stores, restaurants and entertainment. The resort has a heated pool and hot tub, the lake for fishing, a pavilion and nature trails. Pets are welcome and there’s plenty of space for big rigs.

Houston West is another RV park in the area, located just 10 miles from Katy Mills Mall. Complete with pool, spa, two-acre fishing pond, TV lounge, kitchen and 24-hour laundry facilities, all sites feature level Texas limestone parking areas, Wi-Fi and picnic tables. The park is right off the freeway.

It’s worth noting that Katy is also home to a large camping supply store, located on the Katy Freeway. It’s open year-round for RV supplies, accessories and services, including a staffed RV wash, RV supplies, parking and repairs.  

Exploring the City
