Crossroads RV Park - Big Spring
15 RV Sites
Crossroads RV Park in Big Spring, Texas, occupies a practical and well-situated position in Howard County's wide-open West Texas terrain — a campground providing full-hookup RV sites in a community that serves as the commercial and service center for the oil field and agricultural economy of the southern Permian Basin. Big Spring's position at the junction of US-87 and the former Texas and Pacific Railway corridor makes it a natural staging point for travelers crossing the vast midlands of West Texas in either direction, and the campground's combination of infrastructure, quiet atmosphere, and genuine regional character gives it an appeal beyond the purely transactional overnight stop.
Full-hookup RV sites with spacious pull-through options accommodate rigs of all sizes in a clean, well-maintained environment suited to both through-travelers and guests planning multi-day stays in the Big Spring area. The West Texas night sky above the campground — with the minimal light pollution of a county seat surrounded by miles of basin grassland and ranch country — is a reliable asset for stargazers who appreciate the Milky Way visibility that the Permian Basin's wide horizons and sparse settlement consistently provide. Pets are welcome.
Comanche Trail Park, within Big Spring, encompasses a municipal lake with walking trails, fishing piers, and waterbird habitat that provides a genuinely pleasant outdoor environment within the city itself — a reminder that even West Texas communities at the margin of their climate build meaningful public recreational infrastructure around the water they can retain. The park's morning bird activity, particularly during spring and fall migration when the Permian Basin acts as a funnel for songbirds crossing the semi-arid midlands, rewards early risers with sightings that the region's position on the Central Flyway makes consistently productive.
Big Spring State Park on the mesa above the city provides one of the more underrated panoramic viewsheds in West Texas — the escarpment edge looking north and west across the rolling Plains and basin floor delivers that characteristic West Texas spatial feeling of standing at the edge of an enormous emptiness that is itself the attraction. Hangar 25 Air Museum, located at Big Spring McMahon-Wrinkle Airfield, presents a substantial collection of vintage aircraft with particular depth in World War II–era military planes reflecting Big Spring's role as a WWII bombardier training base — a history that shaped the city's development and deserves more than a passing visitor's attention.
Crossroads RV Park serves guests year-round in Big Spring's dry West Texas climate, where the mild winters and predictable sunshine make it a comfortable stopover destination through every season. Spring wildflower season in Howard County's grassland and scrub terrain brings bluebonnets and paintbrush to the roadside margins beginning in March, and fall brings the cooling temperatures that make West Texas most comfortable for extended outdoor exploration. The campground's connection to local dining and the broader Midland-Odessa metro area 40 miles west means that regional services, entertainment, and petrochemical-sector visitor infrastructure are all within practical range for guests with an interest in the broader Permian Basin landscape.
