Get Set for Easter Holiday Camping at Labonte Park

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX – It is not too soon to be thinking about your Easter holiday plans. What will you and your family be doing to celebrate?

Labonte Park, located at 14333 IH-37 Access Road, is a wonderful place to enjoy and connect with your family and nature! The Nueces River runs along this park which makes it ideal for outdoor camping. Create memories of fishing along the river, bike rides along the park, enjoying lawn games and sports just to have fun!  And you can’t forget, outdoor grilling —all on the campgrounds. This is a fun-filled family tradition for many visitors at the park. Remember to pack your cascarones for your Easter egg hunt!

We ask visitors to please keep the park clean so that everyone will have an enjoyable experience.

Starting today, the Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation will start accepting online reservations from park visitors to secure campsite(s) at Labonte Park for the week of April 10–12, 2020.

The Camping Fee of $28 will be required for up to three days of camping at the park. A second $28 camping permit may also be purchased allowing for up to three additional days of camping. RV campsites are $55 for the first three days of camping and $55 for three additional days. Each campsite will include parking permits for two vehicles. Each additional vehicle will need a $3 per day per vehicle permit to enter the park or a weekend pass may be purchased upon entry for $6 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 $28. 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 10, at 10am until noon on April 9, 2020. Campsites are reserved and paid for in advance at https://register.ccparkandrec.com/. Two campsite packages are allowed per customer request and payment must be made within 24 hours of reservation approval. Beginning on Friday, April 10, 2020, 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.
