    The RV campground at NAS Corpus Christi is called Marvin Shields Park and is located in the northeast corner of the base on the shore of the bay. It offers 64 sunny sites, all with full hookups. Nearby are 28 additional sites in an area that was formerly a mobile home park. The RV park is open to civilians with an MWR Guest Card.
