San Antonio is known by many names: Alamo City, River City, Military City, USA. But many people just call it ‘home.’

In the 18th century, missionaries founded the Spanish mission and fortress now known as The Alamo. In 1836, this is where the Battle of the Alamo occurred. Today, The Alamo is located in the Alamo Plaza Historic District in downtown San Antonio. It is Texas’ biggest tourist attraction.

The name River City comes from the San Antonio River Walk, a network of paths along the banks of the San Antonio River—a whole story beneath the streets of the city.

San Antonio is home to several military bases, including the Lackland Air Force Base, Randolph Air Force Base, and Fort Sam Houston. It’s no wonder people refer to it as Military City, USA.  The industry employs almost 90,000 people and more than $5 billion to the city’s economy.

With plenty of attractions to keep you busy and a bustling economy, San Antonio would make a nice place to call ‘home.’ Read about the following five best mobile home parks in and around San Antonio.

1. Traveler’s World RV Resort

Traveler’s World RV Resort may be great for those on vacation, but it’s perfect for those looking for a long-term home as well. With tons of amenities like wifi and cable access, a mail center, restroom and shower facilities, laundry facilities, a pet area, clubhouse, picnic
area, swimming pool, and hot tub, playground, horseshoes, fitness center, game room, and library, you’ll never be bored. They also have hiking and biking trails.

Traveler’s is only five miles from the heart of downtown San Antonio, so you’re close to all the action! Only three miles from the Alamo and the River Walk, you could walk or bike to activities. There’s a bus stop right across from the park that will take you to the city as well.

What makes this RV park feel like a community is their social calendar. They host potlucks, game nights, and other gatherings for residents.

Site Features:

● 160 sites
● 20-amp/30-amp/50-amp
● Grassy or gravel sites
● Full hookups
● Pull-thru or back-in sites

Reviews: 267 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.4 out of 5 stars.

The short: Traveler’s lets you live close to downtown and their park feels like a community.

2. Green Lake RV Resort

Just under 12 miles from downtown San Antonio, Green Lake RV Resort is stocked with every amenity your heart could desire. Free wifi, recreation room with exercise equipment, swimming pool and jacuzzi, outdoor kitchen facilities, outdoor fire pits,
stocked fishing lake, dog wash station, and perhaps the best amenity—a coffee and popcorn bar.

The reviews are glowing, including this review from a new resident, “Since moving to San Antonio this is the one place I feel most at home.” Another comment, “As close to perfect as an RV park could be,” goes to show why they have such a high rating on Google.

The photos show a clean, well-maintained community. There are palm trees and plenty of greenery, something parks can lack.

Site Features: Concrete pads with full hookups, outdoor storage for rent, free cable TV at hookup, and free air station.

Reviews: 206 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.4 out of 5 stars.

The short: Green Lake RV Resort is a 5-star RV park experience that is close to downtown San Antonio.

3. Blazing Star RV Resort

Blazing Star RV Resort offers sites for a weekend to week stays or extended stays at one month to a year. They also have cabins for vacation rentals. So in this park, you’ll have long-term neighbors and those just stopping by for a trip.

Blazing Star is located 20 miles and a half hour from downtown San Antonio. But you don’t need to trek all the way to the city to do your shopping. They have an on-site store and shopping and dining just down the highway.

Other amenities include restroom and shower facilities, laundry facilities, gas, pet area, clubhouse, swimming pool, playground, bocce ball, game room, library, and a fitness center.

It’s a kid-friendly park with games and outdoor amenities, and other children to make friends with. Their game room includes arcade games and a claw machine! There’s an elementary school just minutes away as well.

Site Features:

● 30-amp/50-amp
● Grassy or paved sites
● Concrete patio

Reviews: 213 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.2 out of 5 stars.

The short: This family-friendly park is a little further from downtown but it’s not lacking on shopping or dining options.

4. Admiralty RV Resort

Inspired by the military presence in San Antonio, Admiralty RV Resort offers a discount to all active military members.

You can book up to six months at a time, but not all sites can be booked for this long of a time period. Their super slab sites can only be booked daily or weekly. So if you own a big rig, this is likely not the RV park for you.

They have a heated swimming pool, playground, laundry facilities, exercise room, basketball court, gift shop, RV supplies, and two pet playgrounds. They even offer a free shuttle to Sea World.

Downtown San Antonio is 17 miles away but there are plenty of shops and restaurants around the park.

Site Features: There’s a variety of sites you can book, ranging from a site with no trees and one car allowed, to a super slab which is 120 feet long, includes a tree, lawn, and plants, and accommodates two vehicles. Sites have full hookups and long-term guests can purchase internet and cable.

Reviews: 171 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.1 out of 5 stars.

The short: This park is geared towards long-term stays, but research their various sites to make sure your mobile home will fit in one that can be booked for six months at a time.

5. Indian Hills Manufactured Home Community

At Indian Hills Manufactured Home Community, you purchase one of their manufactured homes.

It’s family-friendly, with a 20-acre park right across the street and within the East Central School District. Kids can swim in their two swimming pools or play basketball on the court.

Parents will appreciate the close access to shopping, a large clubhouse, laundry room, and fenced RV and boat storage.

Site Features: Sites vary based on manufactured home.

Reviews: 68 Google reviewers give the resort a respectable 3.9 out of 5 stars.

The short: Indian Hills is a good choice for someone looking to buy a manufactured home in a family-friendly area.

If you enjoy fried food, pig races, and impressive titles, Dallas might be the city for you. Home to the United States’ largest state fair, Dallas proves that everything is bigger in Texas.

But that’s not all. Dallas has the country’s largest contiguous arts district with 20 square blocks of museums and performing arts centers!

And for those who just want to grab a bite to eat, there are 12,000 different locations serving up food. If you ate at a new place every day, it would take you more than 32 years to try them all.

So if boredom is your enemy, it’s safe to say Dallas is your friend. For those who’d like to make Dallas their new home, the following mobile home parks are all good options.

Best Mobile Home Parks in Dallas

1. Lake Haven Estates Mobile Home

Hugged by Lewisville Lake, Lake Haven Estates gives you both easy access to the water and other conveniences. And with numerous schools just minutes away, it’s a good choice for families with young children.

Just a straight shot north on 35E from downtown Dallas, residents of Lake Haven can get to the city in a half hour.

Within the community itself, enjoy the playground, RV storage, swimming pool, and outdoor picnic area with grills. Pets are welcome but must be no bigger than 20 pounds.

Perhaps one of the best features is the proximity to Lewisville Lake, the largest fishing and recreational lake in Texas. So whether you like catching fish or swimming alongside them, there’s something for everyone.

Site Features: There are 147 lots with paved streets.

Reviews: 57 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.1 out of 5 stars.

The short: For a family-oriented community that’s equally convenient to shops and lakes, Lake Haven is a solid choice.

2. Golden Triangle of Coppell, Texas

Maybe equally as family-friendly as the previous mobile home park, Golden Triangle is also surrounded by numerous schools. It’s slightly closer than the previous choice at a 25-minute drive to the city.

Kids can play at the playground, families can enjoy the swimming pool and picnic area, and you can invite friends over for a game of basketball or shuffleboard.  One reviewer writes, “ Great place to live. No issues. Quiet neighborhood. Good management! Great maintenance guy!” While another writes, “Some may dislike the airport noise, but you get used to it and the airport is convenient.”

Site Features: They offer homes for rent and homes for sale featuring 2, 3, and 4-bedroom floor plans.

Reviews: 42 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.3 out of 5 stars.

The short: This is a family-friendly community in a good location. The price of convenience is airport noise.

3. Town View Mobile Home Park

The downfall for many mobile home parks is management. But not for Town View Mobile Home Park. Their Google reviews boast glowing reviews of their management.  One resident writes, “The manager at the property is amazing. She has always [gone] out of her way to help everyone that she can. She has made the property look very [nice].”

The closest to downtown, Dallas on this list, you could hop in your car and be in the city within 15 minutes. However, there are plenty of shops right down the road as well.

And for warm Dallas summer days, take a dip in the community swimming pool.

Site Features: This mid-sized community has 166 sites and off-street parking.

Reviews: 39 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.0 out of 5 stars.

The short: If being close to downtown but not actually being downtown is important to you, Town View knocks it out of the park.

4. Good Luck RV Park

Good Luck RV Park’s community is spotted with fun memorabilia like large retro parking signs and vintage tractors.

Unlike some other parks, Good Luck is only for RVs, Big Rigs, and Multiple Slide-Outs.  Their lots are closely packed, but rent is on the lower end at $315 a month for most sites.

As far as amenities, they have a playground for kids and a dog run for pets. They also have a restroom and coin-operated laundry facilities.

What may be the most attractive aspect of this park is its close proximity to downtown Dallas at just ten miles away. That’s only a 15-minute drive or a one-hour bus ride.

Site Features: They have 30 and 50 amp full hookup sites and paved pads.

Reviews: 74 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.0 out of 5 stars.

The short: Good Luck RV Parks gets you close to downtown at an affordable price.

5. Brookside Village

Brookside Village sounds like a quaint community, and via the photos left by reviewers, it is! The park is clean and well-maintained, a big plus in our book.

Another family-friendly option, there are schools for all ages within a few miles, and there’s even a school bus stop within the park.

Residents can enjoy their soccer field, playground, clubhouse, and swimming pool. You won’t need to run downtown for the basics (although it’s only 18 miles away) since gas stations, grocery stores, and restaurants are all down the street.

Site Features: You can buy or rent one of their 2, 3, or 4 bedroom units.

Reviews: 121 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.0 out of 5 stars.

The short: A family-friendly option with clean and well-maintained grounds

Dubbed the “Space City” because it’s home to NASA’s Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston is a bustling metropolis. In fact, it’s actually the most populous city in Texas and the fourth most populous city in the United States.

If you’re looking for work, Houston might be the place to move. With its economy made up of energy, manufacturing, aeronautics, and transportation, Houston has the most Fortune 500 headquarters behind New York.  And similar to New York, Houston is known for its diversity. In 2010, Rice University put out a report that stated Houston surpassed both Los Angeles and New York as the most diverse city in the country.

Best Mobile Home Parks in Houston

1. Woodland Estates

Amenities, here we come! Woodland Estates boasts an impressive collection of perks including a sports center, swimming pool, soccer field, playground, clubhouse, basketball courts, and a grassy recreational area. It’s pet-friendly too! This large community with 342 sites is located 16 miles from downtown Houston and a 25-minute drive.

One reviewer writes, “ We have [resided] at Woodland Estates for over 10 years and the staff members have always been very professional, [courteous] and helpful. If you enjoy living in a community where the staff doesn’t enforce the rules, don’t move here.”
Site Features: You can rent a home or purchase one.

Reviews: 91 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.0 out of 5 stars.

The short: Woodland Estates might be the choice for you if you enjoy loads of amenities and management who enforces the park’s rules.

2. Camino Villa Mobile Home Park/RV Park

Technically located in Pasadena, Texas, just 22 miles east and a 25-minute drive from downtown, Houston, Camino Villa Mobile Home Park is the perfect quiet community.  With numerous reviews praising the park’s calm, quiet nature, those who seek a relaxed
environment should look into this community.

As far as amenities, because the park doesn’t have a website, we couldn’t find a list of features. However, a handful of reviews mentioned fishing, so we figure they have a lake or pond available.

One reviewer writes, “I never thought about moving [to] a mobile home, but the staff there gave my husband and I a change of heart. We have [fallen] in love with the place and staff.”

Site Features: Because they don’t have a website, we couldn’t find specifics on their sites. They allow both traditional mobile homes and RVs in their community.

Reviews: 58 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.2 out of 5 stars.

The short: Even though Camino Villa doesn’t have an online presence, their 58 reviews speak for themselves. This laid back environment might be the perfect fit.

3. Cedar Creek Forest

Cedar Creek Forest is located just under 30 miles northwest and a 30-minute drive from downtown Houston. They describe their community as having large lots, large trees, and a convenient location.

For $375 a month for a single wide lot, ($400 for a doublewide and $425 for a premium) residents can enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of the park. If they’re in the mood for a night out on the town, Houston is only a half hour away.

Google reviewers describe the park as well taken care of and clean. There doesn’t seem to be amenities, or at least their website doesn’t mention them, but their reviewers don’t seem to mind.

Site Features: There are single wide, doublewide, and premium lots available. Rental cost includes water, wastewater, and garbage fees.

Reviews: 27 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.7 out of 5 stars.

The short: If you aren’t looking for a community loaded with amenities, Cedar Creek Forest could be a good choice.

4. Woodgate Mobile Home Park

Woodgate Mobile Home Park (not to be confused with Woodland Estates listed above) is 14 miles and a 20-minute drive northwest of downtown Houston.

This is a mid-sized community with just over 140 lots. One reviewer writes that they don’t have RV spots for campers, making us think that (unless the reviewer was mistaken) this community is only for long-term residents.

It’s described as a nice, quiet place to live, but there’s no mention of any amenities via their Google reviews. But with Houston, just a short drive, the lack of amenities may not be a problem for those willing to travel.

Site Features: Due to a lack of a website, we couldn’t find information on their site features.

Reviews: 24 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.3 out of 5 stars.

The short: Woodgate is a good choice for a quiet community with a short drive to downtown Houston.

5. Holiday Village Mobile Home Park

The quickest drive to the city at only 15 minutes, this would be an ideal commute for anyone working downtown or near the city.

The park boasts numerous large trees, giving it an outdoorsy vibe. Unfortunately, a lack of website and any web presence leaves us with questions. Are there amenities? What is the rental cost?

Site Features: We could not find any information on site features.

Reviews: 19 Google reviewers give the resort an impressive 4.3 out of 5 stars.

The short: If you want to live in a well-reviewed mobile home park that’s close to the city, Holiday Village is your best bet.
