There's a lot to be said about West Bay Marina. I spent from May-August in this park. Considering…read moreother RV parks in the area, I would say this is one of the better ones, but it does not come without many flaws. To preface, I will say I am from Ohio, and I have absolutely never been in an RV Park like this one. Texas campgrounds and RV parks just don't compare to the ones back home, but this one on a lake was as close as it could get. Regardless, Texas is still hotter than shit, and there's not much to do u less you own your own boat- the boat rentals at West Bay are outrageously unaffordable and the boats they have available to rent are not very well stocked or taken care of. The pontoon we rented twice went max 10mph so it provided no wind relief from the sun, the radio didn't work, the front chair was about to rip out of its studs, it was dirty, and the anchor didn't work worth a flying crap... which is unfortunate on a lake without a sandbar where you can't touch hardly anywhere and have to anchor so you can get out and float. The one day we couldn't even enjoy it because the wind and current were so bad we just kept drifting away from the boat on our floaties. The beach area and volleyball net leaves a lot to be desired. The sand is not taken care of in either spot, it's dirty and full of sticks and fire ant hills. My sister in law asked a few times if they could grade the sand, they said yes but never did. Oh, and the volleyball net is basically a giant litter box, because the park is overrun with stray cats. They really need to handle that issue because it'll hurt the wildlife population in the area and continue to stink up the park. My dad came down and rented the cabin for a week, $1500, and they won't even give the renter a discount on the boat after spending all that money to be on the lake. Cleaning fee was included but we had to practically clean the cabin ourselves, spider webs everywhere inside and on the porch hangout area. Leftover garbage left behind from someone else. A few roaches. Missing necessities like a lighter, coffee pot is only 5 cups... they should be able to afford a full sized coffee pot. The tv is a smart tv- no local channels. Runs off park wifi- which is an absolute joke. Don't count on it- couldn't use it in our camper (which was in row 3) or the cabin rental. Had to use our own hotspot, my dad ended up using his entire monthly allowance in 2 days at the rental just by watching tv at night. You should be able to use the tv after spending $1500 to rent the place. On the topic of absolute rip offs, when we first got to the park Wayne told us our spot was $480. Months into our stay they tried to tell me it was $715 a month but they'd knock it to $555. I said absolutely not. Funny how this comes about a few days after my neighbor asks me what we pay for our spot. Turns out they'll cut people deals but as soon as someone else finds out and complains they try to raise the price on you. They ended up raising all lot rent in the entire park which seems like entirely too much money for a spot on a lake without a sandbar in Tex-ass, the hottest place on earth. Water, sewer, electricity, laundry, and hell even wifi because the park wifi doesn't work... all an extra expense on top of your lot rent. The laundry and bath house is shut down at least once a month, not sure why. And the laundry is all new washer and dryers but they apparently run off wifi and constantly need to be rebooted and aren't working 80% of the time. The showers in the bathhouse don't drain very well so you stand in everyone's filth. Some people's camper sewerage smells so bad you can't even go outside. My brother in law in the back wouldn't even hang out at his camper his neighbors smelled so bad. And lastly, it's my understanding Wayne is a new owner trying to clean up the park, and it'll take time. But a lot of permanent residents have permanent fixtures and campers that aren't well taken care of. Some lots have dog crap and garbage everywhere. It makes the park look trashy and cluttered. I've also never been to a campground that allows golf carts- they're a nuisance and eyesore to the park and often times people do not pay attention to where they're going or what they're doing and they're literally everywhere. Ultimately, I can appreciate a park that allows campers of any age (well taken care of), and takes care of its facilities and provides some opportunity for entertainment (the lake). This could be a great spot but it isn't well executed and the staff has it out for money but leaves a lot of the park lacking. Might be the best park in the area but I was glad to get out of there and I won't be returning. Best part we're my neighbors- really friendly people.

We have a neighbor who had caught 13 crappie (a family fave!) the day before, so we had high hopes for our catch considering they are spawning right now. I think our neighbor might have caught most of them because my dad was the only one who caught a big crappie amongst the 4 of us. I did catch a bass and a little perch, but it was a slow catch that took nearly 6 hours. Many went home empty-handed (including a lot of regulars) this day, so I can't complain. Did I mention I got some good vitamin D? Oh, and fresh air!! Yea, oxygen won as my best catch of the day. I think it's best to come on a weekday when less people are out. This way, if the fish are biting, they have fewer baits to choose from. I like this place. Entry is $5 per person. There are a few off-limit areas near the boat dock and walkways. I get it, but a bummer from a fishing standpoint since crappie like to hang out around structures (i.e. decks, fences, etc.) We found out that you can bring your boat out for $7, which is a better deal even if only 2 people are fishing. My dad has a boat, so we'll probably go that route next time. We were advised that they close the dock at 8 pm and you absolutely will get locked in the lake if your boat is not out of the water by then. Careful! If you plan on coming out a lot, an annual membership will cost you $135. As it relates to social distancing, I was honestly disappointed to see that many didn't seem to be doing that out there and very few had masks on when talking to each other. We still need to care for ourselves and each other, people! Things are not back to normal. Nonetheless, it is still doable to stay distanced and take your own precautions (like I did), if you're planning on coming out. Let's not live in fear, but let's keep doing our part to fight.
