Island RV Resort

Island RV Resort

Island RV Resort is a private RV park at 700 6th Street in Port Aransas, Texas, on the Gulf Coast, and it is the value play in the town core. With 199 full-hookup sites, pull-throughs, a pool, general store, laundry, cable and showers, it sells on location: you are inside the Port Aransas street grid, a golf cart ride from the marina, the jetties and every restaurant in town. It suits anglers on charter trips and anyone who wants full hookups and walkability more than elbow room.

Why RVers stay here

The practical picture is 30/50-amp full hookups with sewer and cable, year-round operation, and rates reported around $32 to $100 a night depending on season, though published pricing is inconsistent across platforms and the park asks you to confirm by phone at (361) 749-5600. It is advertised as big-rig friendly, but for rigs over 40 feet we would confirm site dimensions before booking. The trade-off is unambiguous and it is why the park scores just 5.5/10 on RV LIFE, the lowest in our Port Aransas guide: the sites are extremely tight, packed closer than even the beachfront parks. Fine as a bed and shower between fishing runs; not the place for a week of outdoor living at your site.

Port Aransas RV Parks: The Best of Mustang Island, From Beachfront Resorts to $12 Beach Camping

Island RV Resort at 700 6th Street is the value play in the town core: 199 sites with 30/50-amp full hookups, pull-throughs, a pool, general store, laundry, cable, and showers, at rates reported around $32 to $100 per night depending on season. Its location is the sell — you are inside the Port Aransas street grid, a golf cart ride from the marina, the jetties, and every restaurant in town.

The candid part: Island RV Resort scores just 5.5/10 on RV LIFE, the lowest of any park in this guide, and the recurring complaint is unambiguous — the sites are extremely tight, crammed together in a way that even the beachfront parks' close spacing doesn't approach. For a fishing trip where the rig is a bed and a shower between charter runs, the price and location make sense. For a week of outdoor living at your site, spend more elsewhere. Verify current rates by phone at (361) 749-5600 — published pricing is inconsistent across platforms.
