For Energy, Oil and Gas Workers

Extended-stay RV parks near the Permian, Bakken, Eagle Ford, and other production regions exist specifically because conventional housing doesn't scale to boom cycles.

The good ones know this market: big rigs, 24-hour gates, laundry, and rates negotiated against per-diem allowances.

What to look for

  • Big-rig pull-throughs with 50-amp service
  • Heated water lines (Permian winters can hit freezing)
  • Early-exit gates for pre-dawn shifts
  • Proximity to field or yard
  • Monthly billing that plays nicely with per-diem

Practical tips

  • ·Negotiate a project rate if you're bringing a crew. Parks would rather fill 10 pads at a modest discount than hold them for single rentals.
  • ·Verify electric billing. Per-metered can double your bill in summer AC season.
  • ·Ask about bunkhouse or crew-quarters arrangements for workers without their own RVs.

A note on housing.

RV Annual welcomes all renters and households. Community pages describe lifestyles, occupations, and use cases. Nothing here signals a preference or limitation based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, or disability. Communities marked 55+ are self-designated by the operator under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA) and are subject to that law. See our Fair Housing statement.
