Great winery with boon-docking & full hook-ups

We discovered this amazing little Texas Winery on Harvest Hosts, but it appears anyone can make a reservation and stay. They offer several dry camping boon docking sites at no charge, assuming you'll visit & support the winery with a tasting and purchase. Plus, they have 3 full hook up sites for a whopping $15 a night :-)

They lots of wine varieties. They're decent. But what's really good.. the large selection of hand made Meads & Fruit wines. Very unique. In fact owner Jim Frascone has won several awards for his meads. Try the Dragon's Breath along with their alligator egg rolls.

The property rests right on the a bay off the Gulf of Mexico. We stayed in one of the 3 full hook up sites for $15. Perfectly level on a concrete pad.

We could walk to the winery in 2 minutes. There is also a small pier with EPIC sunsets over the water.  Down the road about 1/4 mile is are a couple water front restaurants.

Overall the place is clean, peaceful and quiet. Jim took our reservation by phone. When you arrive, you stop at the sign and call him. He rolls out in a golf cart to greet you and shows you where you'll be staying.

It was quite cold and windy, so they carted us around from our camper to the winery then to the pier for a sunset. 

it's a little bit of drive off the interstate, but well worth it. You can even jump on a fairy to or from the south of Houston if you have "travel time."  Well worth it.

What impresses us is that Jim has several vineyards around the area, and has his own bee hives to make the meads from. Cool spot for sure. We love it.
