Book Your Labonte Park Campsite for Easter Holiday

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX – Do you have plans for the Easter holiday? Thinking about ways to spend time with your family that everyone can enjoy and connecting with nature? Outdoor camping at Labonte Park is so much fun! You can try your hand at fishing, play a friendly game of softball or volleyball on the open field and fly a kite or toss a horseshoe. And who doesn’t enjoy grilling their catch of the day (fish) or hotdogs on the barbeque pit? For some park visitors, this is a family tradition passed down through three generations or more. For the children, the highlight of the weekend is the Easter egg hunt followed by cracking the cascarones on family and friends!

The Nueces River runs along this park which historically has been a very popular holiday spot. We ask visitors to take pride in our City park and to please keep it clean, so everyone will have an enjoyable experience.

The Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation will start accepting online reservations from park visitors to secure camp site(s) at Labonte Park for the week of March 27–April 1, 2018.

The Camping Fee of $25 will be required for up to three days of camping at the park. A second $25 camping permit may also be purchased allowing for up to three additional days of camping. RV campsites are $50 for the first three days of camping and $50 for three additional days. Each campsite will include parking permits for two vehicles. Each additional vehicle will need a $2.00 per day per vehicle permit to enter the park or a weekend pass may be purchased upon entry for $5 per vehicle. Overnight camping is allowed by City ordinance for a maximum of six consecutive days. A day use permit for an individual campsite will also be $25. Camping Fees will offset the cost of trash pick-up and site clean-up required as a result of the holiday camping. 

RESERVATIONS: The online reservation period will run from February 5 at 10am until noon on March 29, 2018. Campsites are reserved and paid for in advance at www.ccparkandrec.com (click ‘Register Online’). Two campsite packages are allowed per customer request and payment must be made within 24 hours of reservation approval. Beginning on Friday, March 30, 2018, any vacant campsites may then be reserved on a first come, first serve basis at Labonte Park.

Don’t wait. Reserve your campsite as soon as possible to secure your spot.
