Our Travels, where they have taken us

 This was a stop on the way to South Padre Island with a stop in San Antonio, TX.    We stayed at the Love's in Cameron using one of their RV sites.  We stayed here in the past, the rate is Fifty bucks for the night.  That is high as far as I am concerned.  Access is easy, quality hookups, good Wifi, but it is noisey with traffic all night.  We stopped here on the way home as well,  Nothing changed, but its still and easy place to rest up for the rest of the trip. 

 This was the next stop on the way to South Padre Island with a stop in San Antonio, TX.   This location has different size spots, and I got one that a 40' rig wouldn't fit in.  It took several phone calls to get things worked out.  While they did move us, it seemed to be way to hard to get done.  Access is easy, quality hookups, and good wifi.  We stayed here on the way home as well.  Easy access, just have to remember to get one of the end slots.  

We are attending the Volunteer Leadership Conference for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in San Antonio, TX, which is a great stop on our way to South Padre Island. We are staying at the KOA in San Antonio. Initially, while driving to the site, it seemed like we were in an industrial area, but once I entered the park, my concerns were put to rest.

The park is very large and offers a range of amenities, including some unexpected ones, like an onsite café. There's also access to a walking or biking trail. Everything is well-maintained, and the staff has been very helpful. Located just minutes from downtown, this is a conveniently placed facility. I highly recommend this park if you’re spending time in San Antonio.  

We are spending two weeks here in the KOA .  A very nice facility that is going through some expansion as they are adding some more sites, closer to the water and updating their Laundry, Exercise Romm and Community Room.  The construction isn't detracting from our time here at all.  I will say the sites here remind me of the older KOA's in that they are pretty close together.  We are glad it is off season and park isn't close to being full so the closness isn't to much of an issue.  I  personally would not want to come here on a weekend when they are full.  They have a heated pool, which is quite nice but no real activities to speak of.  It is close to the beach and plenty of things to do away from the campground.  As always the folks here are friendly and will do what ever is needed to keep you happy.  The other guests seem to be in our age range so its easy to strike up a conversation when on a walk or at the pool.  Space X is just across the intercoastal and visible during the day.  It would have been nice to see a launch from here as the view is unobstructed and according to some others we have talked with it is quite an experience seeing a launch from here.

The South Padre Island area doesn't have much to offer other than the beach.  We enjoy daily walks on the beach but we also enjoy exploring local shops, attractions and restaraunts.  The local shopping is all beach wear related and there are very few other activities to do in the area. There are good restaraunts on the island and in Port Isabel so do take advantage of those should you come here.  We have changed our plans and are leaving early to explore the Corpus Cristi area.  While this is a nice park, and will be better when the construction is done, there just isn't enough to occupy us for two weeks.   KOA South Padre Island

Just 30 minutes from Corpus Chisti in Rockport, TX.  We ended up doing a couple nights here.  A very large park, no trees, good spacing and all concrete spots.  Great sunsets and there is plenty to do in Rockport. We really enjoyed exploring the town, visting a flea market going on as well as several great shops.  We ate a Mac's BBQ in Rockport.  A must stop if you like BBQ.  Great food and nice staff.  We also got back to Corpus Christi and toured the USS Lexington, and wonderful way to spend an afternoon.  KOA in Rockport, TX
