Camping season is fully underway, and it can get pretty pricey sometimes depending on where you're staying. It's always nice to save some money whenever possible, so here are seven awesome places for first-come first-serve camping in Texas that are completely free and allow no reservations camping. Some are right by the beach while others reside more inland, but they all have one thing in common: enough space to accommodate whoever shows up and it's so nice to not have to make Texas camping reservations. This means no stressing or planning ahead. If you happen to be in the area come nighttime, feel free to stop by knowing there's room for one more. Is there anything better than no reservation camping in Texas?

1. Brazos Island State Park (Cameron)

You'll need to plan ahead because there are no dump stations and the nearest grocery store is 25 miles away, but Brazos Island State Park definitely worth the extra hassle. You'll likely be the only family camping on the beach, so you can enjoy the peace and quiet and come back feeling completely rejuvenated.

2. Fritch Fortress Campground (Fritch)

It's hard to believe that Fritch Fortress Campground is among our state's free campgrounds - it has a beautiful view, trash service, dump stations, fresh water, clean bathrooms with showers, Verizon, and ATT service, and it's only 20 minutes from a national monument.

3. Bolivar Flats Free Beach (Bolivar)

You have to get a $10 permit to park on the beach, but other than that it's free. This part of Bolivar can be accessed by taking Highway 87 to Retillion Road, and you'll need to bring plenty of water with you. Enjoy your beachfront freedom!

4. Camp Creek Recreation Area (Marble Falls)

Camp Creek is a beautiful park with picnic tables, grills, fire pits, vault toilets, trash bins, and 4G telephone service. There's even a boat ramp, and locals say the fishing is great! Pecan trees abound for the picking and every morning, deer are frolicking around all over the place.

5. Spring Creek Park (Tomball)

There are tons of activities at this beautiful park to keep you busy during the day from a swimming pool and basketball and tennis courts to plenty of walking trails. Showers and restrooms are across the street and it's about a two mile drive to restaurants and grocery stores in Tomball.

6. Magnolia Beach (Port Lavaca)

There are two areas to camp at Magnolia Beach: one near the water and another closer to the restrooms/showers and a covered pavilion. You'll have much more room to spread out and enjoy the open air if you choose the former.

7. Indianola County Historic Park (Indianola)

There may not be much left of this little town, but the park is one you don't want to pass up. You'll get a breathtaking view of the water and escape from all your troubles with the sound of the gently crashing waves lulling you to sleep.
