Bush Library information
Our friends are going to see the Bush Library in Feb. They'll be traveling in a class C motorhome. Are there any decent RV parks in the Dallas area close the Library? And what else is there to do in ...

Back to the question.
Parking at the library is limited. If they have a toad they should not have a problem. But I don't think there is a place to park a C, even if it is not a large C. Even the library web site suggest using the DART rail system due to parking limitations. But using DART requires quite a walk since the station is the other side of central expressway.
As noted above, there is just not much in the way of convenient RV parks to north Dallas. Spring Creek Village in Plano is closest. Mostly mobile homes with RV sites at one end. Check the reviews. Most say it is ok for a night or two, but only because it is the only thing in that area.
Next most convenient would be Lighthouse RV Resort in Melissa, a little farther north. Don't be mislead by the "resort" name. But it does get better reviews than Spring Creek. And it is on US 75 and a straight shot south to the library in Dallas.
The other RV parks noted by PAWPAW above get much better reviews, but are not as convenient to north Dallas. But I would assume they would only be at the library one day, so that may not be an issue.
As far as what to do in Dallas, it depends on interest. Google Dallas tourism or request a free Dallas visitor guide and see what may interest them. Lots of arts, museums, broadway type productions, arboretum, etc.
What direction will they be arriving from?
