I was in the area for the 2023 Texas Master Naturalist annual meeting. I don't like to stay in…read morehotels, so I turned it into a camping trip and brought my RV down. I usually stay in State Parks. Unfortunately, the Benson Rio Grande State Park, which was immediately across the street from this lovely RV park, does not have camping. After carefully studying the area for good RV places to stay, I decided on this one. Two other couples from the Alamo Area chapter of the Texas Master Naturalists also stayed there. I can't say a whole lot about the facilities, as I had no time to enjoy any of the luxurious amenities available. I can tell you that this was the most beautifully laid out RV park I have ever seen. The entire place is landscaped with Texas natives. The varieties of flowers that were blooming was nearly overwhelming. The birds flying all over were equally enchanting. I probably could've thrown a rock from my camper to the border wall. That was interesting for me. I watched several border patrol vehicles passing by on the street just outside of the fence. I felt 100% secure the entire time I was there. The park is only 9/10 of a mile from the National Butterfly Center. as I mentioned before, it is also right across the street from the state park. In fact, there is a gate that takes you directly to the visitors parking for the state park. The resort was extremely quiet. I don't know if that would be true when it is filled to capacity with Winter Texans, but I wouldn't be there. The seasonal price is really high. The location is only about 8 miles from downtown McAllen. It was very convenient to get to all of my field trips and the conference at the convention center. The RV park is under new management. The couple that runs it are two of the nicest people you could ever meet. They are extremely accommodating and welcoming. They have a wonderful place, and they really know how to run it. I will stay at this particular location anytime I am in the area in the future. Since most of my time was taken up with conference activities, there is still a lot of exploring I would love to do in that area. The Rio Grande Valley is an amazing place for birding. I would love to do more of that.

After several complaints they set up a couple of traps outside. Did nothing so I slept in a chair till we were able to leave early. Loud music and noisy trucks that sped by a few feet from the door. Dated and unkept not only in the trailer but throughout the park. When we complained the maintenance guy only asked how soon we were leaving. Tried to bill us for an additional 500 in the beginning. When we had NO hot water told me to take a shower in the public showers. Felt like I was living in the slums as a lot of places had trash etc stacked up outside. A lot of uncovered electric outlets - a hazard and dangerous! To top it all off the train comes by several times a night. Horrible experience!

The tent site was clean and level and had shade and a picnic table. The RV park itself was quiet but the road was busy and could be noisy at times; nevertheless I slept well. There were birders and butterfliers there who helped me plan my itinerary when I asked and were generous with their knowledge. The resort even had a bird walk area. It's very close to a beautiful state park and a superb butterfly garden. I highly recommend it!

BUT it was a homey place to stay, the pool and spa were immaculate and kept that way and the funky tiki bar added character. Beautiful landscaping in the small pool/tiki bar area but less lush elsewhere in the park. Very big lots compared to the parking lot style RV parks nearby and included picnic tables and patio area in addition to parking for your vehicle and RV. Clubhouse is the only wi-fi zone, and the wi-fi there is just so-so. On-site manager went WAY out of his way to accommodate us - turned on the spa when we were the only users, found us a carport the evening a hail storm was predicted. We paid a third of what we paid at a nearby RV park last year.

It floods when there is heavy rain (Facebook) . There are no visible fire hydrants and some units that are rentals ( small and a few stink ) or dependent trailers do not have paved driveways for vehicles to park. Moreover, some of the units look way older than the 10 year limit according to the cities building code and in need of repair. The park bills your electricity and water ( as per rental application online). This indicates one would be at the mercy of the management as to how much you are billed .Some of the concrete slabs that are available for travel trailers are quite dated, cracked, and in need of repair (website and observation). I don't know if a licensed plumber, electrician, or handyman is on site or just contract labor is used. However, a tenant did advise me to be careful of speed because management will issue citations. The very few speed limit signs say 10 mph, so one can't even pedal their bike too fast much less their motorized wheelchairs. The washing and drying facility is very small and unattractive. The washeteria down the road is open 24 hrs 7 days a week and cleaner ( stopped and checked ). Pictures on facebook show that roofs came off some of the trailers during the last tropical storm, tree branches fell damaging the trailers and park. Therefore, the landscaping and maintenance is below average. Definitely a safety issue. There is no swimming pool, tennis court, or walking path. The nearest golf course is 5 miles away as well. Where the park is gated there is no call button to reach the front office and the code box is not functional. In Addition, The park sign was broken off by the last storm and has not been replaced as of yet. So it was hard to locate if not for Google. Facebook shows little participation in park events other than socials (very limited). Same people over and over in the pictures. Many of the lots are vacant. Pros: Gated community, over 55 +, quiet area, small community , dog friendly, has a ample dog park, affordable. (you get what you pay for), close to shopping ,grocery store, and restaurants. Too many issues are present to even think about considering as even a temporary residence.

This place needs to be shut down. When it rains the city sewer system overflows into the park and…read morethe owners even pull the sewer caps to allow the sewage to run out of the pipes and into the park and it eventually goes into the lake. It stinks for days because of the sewage. They pull the caps off because if they don't the sewage will back up into the rec Hall. They do not have Wi-Fi, they do not keep the grass mowed, there is no AC in the rec Hall, they do not have a swimming pool, they do not have activities, and the managers are rude. Mosquitoes are absolutely horrible because they don't keep the grass mowed. But the main thing is the sewage. When I was there the sewage ran nonstop out of the pipes and into the lake for more than 72 hours and the smell was horrible! And it did this every time it rained! They do not allow the residents to work on their own units. If work needs to be done you have to choose someone from their approved list of contractors. There are a lot of parks in the area to choose from and the others are much nicer than this one.
