Lessons learned by the park residents from last year.
Last year the park lost power on the morning of the first day. The sewer overflowed on the streets n Day 3 of no power due to residents use the drip technique with open grey tank. This practice and the lack of power to pump the sewer out cause the streets to flood with sewer affluent (Clear but still sewer water). This info came from a Pioneer maintenance guy.
There was a "Boil water" order issued by Port Aransas on day 3.
We never did the drip. We completely disconnected.2021 310GK-R - MorRyde suspension and pin box. Sumo Springs. Solar, 7k axles.

Fredericksburg, Texan wine country. It is beautiful out there. Enchanted as the rock is! Can't wait to get back there. Family in Houston so did this area a few times in motels. Now both retired, we are planning (fingers crossed) slowly drive to Houston October 2022 initially via east coast, east of blue mountains. Of through Tennesse, Leave RV at his place, visit fam in FLA and then return to Montreal returning end of February 23, go west, Arizona, New Mexico...loop around....see the canyons to return to Montreal by late April.

Hello Jay, We just left there yesterday, hated to leave. I think you will like it. A couple more places you might want to visit, the West End Marina has a very nice restaurant and is close to the RV park. The KOA Holiday is 7 miles from Jamaica Beach and there is a great little grocery store (Seven Seas) there so you don't have to go all the way into the city. Nate's is a good restaurant and is right beside the grocery. Diesel fuel at WalMart was $3.25 / gal when we left, unleaded was @ 3.00.
Enjoy your staySteve & Tami Cass - Escapee's, FMCA Members, Texas Fulltimers Since July 2020
