Park Review – Fort Amarillo RV Resort

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐1/2
Location: Amarillo, TX
Type: Commercial Park
Check-in/Check-out times: 1:00/12:00
Site Quality / Amenities: Roads and pads are gravel with some asphalt below. There is a picnic table and concrete patio on each site and there *might* be enough space to park a dually truck in the back of the site next to the trailer. Additional amenities include a heated indoor pool, a rec hall with exercise room, a large playground, a fenced dog park, and pickleball and basketball courts. There is a large pond and stream (both man made) in the middle of the park with some nice outdoor seating areas. Part of the office includes a large store.
Access: Easy access from the new Loop 335 W on West Amarillo Blvd just north of Interstate 40.
Staff: Office staff were friendly and check in was quick and easy.
Cellular/WiFi: There is WiFi at the park but we didn’t use it. We had a strong Verizon signal but I didn’t check speed, T-Mobile was 5 bars and achieved about 500 Mbps download and 12 Mbps upload. Although there are some trees around the park, our Starlink was unobstructed.
Restaurants: Hook & Reel Cajun Seafood & Bar – We weren’t thrilled and will try somewhere else next time.
Nearby parks: We have stayed at the Oasis RV Resort nearby several times. It is a newer park but a bit farther out of town and the last time we stayed there the roads in the park were in need of some maintenance. In addition, connections are in an awkward place. Overall, Fort Amarillo will likely become our go to place when staying in Amarillo.
What we liked: Although there were some buildings on site that needed some major TLC, the park generally seemed to be well maintained.
What we didn’t like: We’d prefer asphalt or concrete roads and pads but the gravel here was in good shape and was not a problem.
Verdict: We will stay here again when in Amarillo.
