These two places for us went hand and hand for many reasons so we decided to join our two reviews about them both, not just as customers but as workers too.

They charge $39.00 with no discounts but they accept Good Sam, AAA for 10% off or Military for 15% off the nightly charge. They offer full hookups only, water, electric 30 or 50 amps, and sewer and the nightly sites are pull through on gravel with a picnic table and most sites are level.


They have an indoor pool and spa...



The showers and restrooms were kept immaculately clean and were designed nice...



They have two fenced in pet areas, grassy areas to hangout and a playground...



We found this place during a rough patch in our lives and it was heaven sent. We learned that we could once again trust people with their words and not believe that all people are critically prejudice against the age of Maggie.

We worked here for several months and of course there were personalities to deal with but we made it through and even had some fun times through it all.

This is a busy overnight park, not the typical destination park so we had a nightly turnover of RV’s which made it very exciting for us, we love busy and this place definitely fits that profile.

Our manager, Bill is not a hands on, micro-manageable type of person which was a definite plus for us, we love taking reign of our situation and just having a blast. He was also a man of his word, what we discussed in the interviewing stages, he stood by it all.

We worked only about 30 hours each per week, which was unfortunate for us but that is what we agreed to and when he could offer us more he did, but it didn’t happen too often.

We received several free meals at the Big Texan Steak Ranch since they now owned the RV Park and that was a nice perk. Free limo rides there was also a good perk to have given to us.





We would highly recommend staying at this RV Park, since it is very clean, the staff is very friendly and even though the sites are a nightmare to situate campers it still is a great place to stay for a night or longer.

As for the Big Texan Steak Ranch, it’s one of those places that is a must see at least once. The food is good and at times it’s not but the atmosphere is outstanding.






They have a stage where at most times there is at least one person attempting the 72oz challenge and it’s fun to watch.


They have a gift shop with some pretty cool items for sale. Then if you go to the back, and we mean the very back of the place there is an area that is the Brewery and even though we are not beer drinkers the atmosphere back there is where the fun is at and there are so many Kodak moments.




The free limo/shuttle ride there and back is just a complete package to the things they offer. The limo’s have horns as do the golf carts they use to escort you to your site at the RV Park, just a very cool place to hang out.

Glad you had the chance to experience not only the Big Texan Steakhouse but the Amarillo Ranch RV Park. We've stayed there a number of times and have been witness to several people trying to have a Free Meal.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
