Rv parks in Waco area

Depends on whether you want warm weather. Waco is not far enough in my opinion. We winter in Rockport and sometimes I feel this is not far enough, but I like the fishing.

Check out Quail Crossing. Its off of Texas state rd. 6 North West of Waco a few miles. Nice park, nice owners. Can't weigh in on wintering there because we never have. This is a no frills park mind you and I don't think you will find the people interaction you seek there either. Its a nice quiet park that is safe. You might look at the Galveston and Bolivar peninsula areas. We enjoyed our stays that area too.

Several people winter at the US Corps of Engineers parks in Waco
Airport Park & Midway Park

You would be on a 14 day period, with an extension at the end of each 14 days. I've never heard of anyone being disapproved. Those are usually allowed between mid-October and mid-March.

Both have 50/W/S sites available.

However, this winter Airport Park (the better of the two in my opinion) is closed due to flood damage.

I've found COE winter over folks friendly, but there are no social events planned by the park.

I've lived in Meridian, MS, and in Dallas, TX.

Waco winter weather should be close to Jackson. There should be a couple really cold spells, but not lower than the mid-20s. Almost any RV will handle those temps fine with heat tape on the water hose, and some type of underbelly/ tank heaters.

There might be a winter ice storm in Waco.

Personally, I prefer farther south. I-10 is my personal dividing line. I like to be south of that if possible.

I would go a bit farther south to Fredericksburg or Kerrville. We stayed at the KOA outside of Fredericksburg and it was quiet but friendly. Not many activities but we found plenty to do around the area. I believe the KOA has monthly sites in the rear. Nice shade trees.
