Traveling to Spur by RV

Reaching Spur is straightforward via Highway 70, which connects east to Roaring Springs and west toward Matador, providing scenic views of typical Texas Panhandle ranch country. The most common approach for RVers comes from US Highway 82, turning north on Highway 70 for the final 12 miles into town. This route offers gentle grades and wide shoulders suitable for large rigs, with no significant elevation changes or tight curves to worry about.

From Lubbock, take US 82 west for about 35 miles before turning north on Highway 70. This 45-mile drive showcases classic High Plains scenery with cotton fields, ranch headquarters, and distant mesas on clear days. RVers coming from the north via Amarillo can take Highway 207 south through Floydada, then connect to Highway 70 west – a longer but equally scenic route through traditional farming communities.

Fuel up before leaving larger towns, as Spur has limited services. The nearest major truck stops with motorhome-friendly diesel pumps are in Lubbock or along I-27 near Plainview. Plan your fuel stops accordingly, especially when pulling heavy loads. Cell phone coverage is generally reliable along major highways but can be spotty in rural areas between towns.

For supply runs, stock up on groceries and motorhome supplies in Lubbock before heading to Spur. The town has basic services including a small grocery store, but selection is limited. Hardware stores in nearby Crosbyton can help with minor motorhome maintenance needs. Propane refills are available at several locations in Lubbock, making it worth planning a supply run if you're staying in the area for extended periods.

Explore the Spur Area

The best motorhome camping in Spur typically happens at parks on the town's outskirts where you'll get better views of the surrounding plains and less road noise from Highway 70. These locations often provide easier access for larger rigs and more space for slideouts. Book ahead during cotton harvest season in late September and October when agricultural workers increase demand for accommodations.

Boondockers should explore the public lands around Caprock Canyons State Park, though dispersed camping requires driving 30-45 minutes from Spur proper. The state park itself offers excellent camping with hookups, but primitive sites provide that authentic High Plains experience under massive skies. Always check current fire restrictions before camping on public lands, as drought conditions can close areas to camping.

Dining options in Spur are limited but authentic. The local café serves solid home-style meals with generous portions that locals recommend, especially their chicken-fried steak and fresh pies. For groceries, the small market covers basics, but serious shopping requires a trip to Lubbock. Stock up on ice and cold drinks before exploring the area, as summer heat can be intense.

Photography enthusiasts should plan for sunrise and sunset shots across the plains – the light here is spectacular with unobstructed horizons in every direction. Bring a good telephoto lens for capturing distant ranch buildings, windmills, and wildlife. Storm photography can be dramatic but requires caution as weather moves fast across these open spaces. Pet owners will appreciate the wide-open areas for exercise, though watch for rattlesnakes during warmer months and always keep dogs leashed near agricultural areas where livestock might be present.
