What guests say
The park report card
We don’t recycle other sites’ reviews, but the published scores tell a clear story: RVers like the quiet, the fishing and the friendly long-term neighbors, and the main gripe is how close the sites are to each other.

Before you book
Plan your stay
Everything we could verify about ICW RV Park, in one place. It has no website, so call ahead.
Our take: a quiet, no-frills park for anglers and long-stay RVers, with waterfront sites on the Intracoastal Waterway and a fishing pier. There’s no website, no published rates and not much elbow room between sites, so call ahead and expect a community of regulars rather than resort amenities.

Open
ICW RV Park is a small, long-running RV park on East Ransom Road in Aransas Pass, laid out along a narrow peninsula on the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. It suits anglers and long-stay RVers who value a quiet waterfront spot over amenities.
Best for
- Anglers: a 360 ft fishing pier and waterfront sites on the Intracoastal Waterway.
- Winter Texans: most guests stay by the month, and some have come back for years.
- Rigs up to about 45 ft: RVers report wide concrete pads.
- Quiet seekers: reviewers call it a very quiet park.
Consider this
- There’s no website, online booking or published rules; everything is by phone.
- Sites sit in one long row with little space between neighbors.
- Amenities are basic: no pool or clubhouse is listed.
- Many guests are long-term, so short-stay space can be tight in winter.
