Starting an RV park?

Question

I cannot seem to find much discussion on Rv parks and how to obtained them. Mobile home parks look like a good idea but I really want to focus in starting a RV park. Basically tentents live in their RVs on my land and pay me a fee each month.

I was wondering if anyone new what it took to actually start one, what permits I would need and the type of land?

I need a starting point, anything will help. Thank you!

@Peter Galik Peter if you are looking for a fully operational RV park in the Houston area I have one under contract that may be of interest to you. It is located in Pasadena, right outside of Houston.  It is a 31 site park that sits on approx 2 acres and is in pristine condition. Many capital improvements recently made to the property including new paved roads, Welcome Center with laundromat, and ADA compliant bathrooms. All units have full hook ups, 30 or 50 amp. Being offered at a 8% cap, but lots of room to increase rents and reduce expenses. Can easily be re-positioned to yield 10-12% returns.  I am asking $1,325,000. Please let me know if you would like more information.

Guys, does anyone know how many spots for RV/travel trailers I could build on 1 acre? I'm just looking for a rough numbers, we are deciding how many acres we are going to purchase in West Texas (yes, for oilfield workers).

Thanks!
