    Beach beautiful

    Stayed an entire month and loved every single day! Beach area is one of the best and well maintained. Sites are small in certain areas, but others are generous.

    fine

    Awesome Tanks 2 is an exhilarating tank warfare game. Players customize tanks, battle through challenging levels, and strategize to defeat enemy tanks while collecting power-ups for enhanced firepower and defense.

    Tropical Trail Mobile Home & RV Park

    Not so Great

    All considering this park needs a lot and is neglected and over rated. Stayed her for a week based on reviews and is not what we expected. First the park is in the middle of no where and I mean no where. Nothing within biking distance or walking distance, the winds are non stop windy. The grass is still, well there isn’t any nor do they water to grow any, was all weeds which they don’t keep trimmed or cut. Dust and dirt in the trailer everyday. The water is incredibly hard and stains everything. The pool(only 1 pool for the size of this park) get full quick. If you don’t have your seat or chair by 9am bring your own. Oh yah, though they do offer good rates on gold carts, you will need it because it’s a long drive to the pool. There is also a daily resort fee per person for whatever reason they tack onto your bill. The park is way over rated and way over priced considering all the conditions I listed. And the funny part of this, if you go to there website they claim it’s a 9.5 star according to good sams reviews, yet when you go to good sams reviews to look up there park it isn’t listed. Definitely don’t recommend this park nor will we ever return.

    Texican Winter

    If your looking for a spot to winter over this could be the spot for you. It is crowded, but as a solo nomad I find it refreshing to be in a community setting from time to time. Big clubhouse with a full kitchen and full size pool table plus all kinds of events like fish fries, chilli cook offs, live music, bingo, karaoke and more. I am not into public swimming pools but they have one that is very nice and well maintained. Individual mail boxes to transfer your mail service to and of course package delivery in the library. Located 20min. from the SpaceX launch pad on Boca Chica Beach which you can drive on and allows dogs. Also South Padre Island which is like Daytona Beach on steroids. Monthly rates are O.K. but with location and amenities a fairly good deal. Thinking of making this my winter home!

    Great RV park.

    Very nice place and the people are great. Mostly used by winter Texans, visiting from Wisconsin and Michigan. Very clean and well maintained.

    Llano Grande Lake Park Resort

    Nice over 55 RV Park!

    Llano Grande was a nice park and we enjoyed our stay there, but it sounded lime there were some issues with pools being heated and communication on events. We dont really use ammenities, so didnt affect us, but could hear grumbling among guests. We had a nice pull thru site, level and plenty long and were close to the laundryroom/pool. Everyone had a golf cart and it was nice to see all the activity going on. There is a big canal behind the park with a levy you can walk on, a nice rec room, a shuffleboard area, horseshoe area, three pools, pickleball courts, a golf course and very nice people. I was bummed that it was so far from the beach. There is a bird viewing state park near, costco and walmart were fairly close and South Padre Island was about an hour away.

    Close to beach

    So close to the beach. Bathrooms were clean and they have a lock so only campers can use. Pickle ball courts were used every morning. They did not allow wood fires.

    Pleasant surprise

    From the park map, it looked like the campsites were pack in like sardines. When we got there, we found very nice, spacious site right on the water. We were there on a Sunday, so there were lots of families grilling and fishing, but we would not have known if we didn’t leave the campsite. The bathrooms were clean, but sparse. They were also used by day-trippers. We enjoyed watching the birds, particularly the pelicans which entertained us by diving into the water in front of our campsite.

    Friendly Residents

    The residents at this park/rv resort are friendly and come from all over the country, we spent the winter of 20/21 and 21/22 at Snow to Sun and enjoyed it, facilities I would rate 4-5 star, staff 3 star, sites 4 star, neighbors 5 star, activities 5 star.

    Would stay again

    We enjoyed our stay as Isla Blanca. Some sites are spacious, some are a little cramped but I've seen worse for sure. 5 minute walk to the beach so thats pretty hard to beat. Lots of stickers around is about the only bad thing.

    Isla Blanca Park

    Nice location, poorly maintained

    Great location and great beach. Good for viewing spacex launches too. Roads, sites, and lawns are poorly maintained and quite varied in condition from site to site. Checkin procedures are odd, where you have to supply all the info they already have when you made the reservation. Then you have to read like 6 pages of rules and agree to them and don't get a copy (I asked). They don't enforce rules and there's noone to call anyhow (neighbor had 5 cars in his 2 car site and played loud music until midnight).

    Great park

    Great park! It is worth paying the daily fee to spend time here. Beach is clean and lifeguards on duty.

    Busy fishing CG

    Very busy and popular CG with the local fishermen. Some sites on the water way. Those are very busy with locals walking through the sites to fish and tons of road traffic to the boat launch. We stayed in the area divided by foliage. Much quieter and a lot less traffic. Had a beautiful view of the Laguna Atascosa sanctuary behind us. 30/50 amp service with full hookups. All sites are back in and gravel but easy to level our 40ft 5th wheel.
    If you have dogs be careful. While we were there they were having a problem with the Javelinas. A pack attacked our neighbor's dog and bit the owner as she tried to save her pug. A day later we were chased by them at our site when we were out with our dogs. Carry a club of some sort. I scared them with a loud dog whistle. The rangers were notified and they contacted animal control.

    Isla Blanca Park

    Huge park

    The sites were fairly level, but with some broken concrete areas the need for levelers were necessary. Sticker burrs were legit and everywhere. I liked the fact that you could easily access the beach or the bay. The beach was not too busy during the week when I was there. Umbrellas and beach chairs were available for $30. I’m not sure there are any sites that can actually see the water, maybe a couple. The dunes and the other 599 campers block most all views. Close to neighboring campers, but to be expected I guess. My particular site did not have a picnic table.
