Quick note we haven't used services but had to say how great the customer service was for planning…read moretrip! We had planned a quick family trip for our kids...they've been on lockdown since mid March due to the pandemic. I'd like to start by saying the customer service and contacting has been THE BEST.... (YASSSS!!!) I believe Anthony is the owner and I spoke to Logan an employee and they provided everything I needed and more. We had a sudden family emergency happen that we have to attend and we adjusted the time with no problem. Logan fixed it within two phone calls and less than 20 mins. However, things became unaligned and unfortunately we had to just cancel it as a whole. With that being said not only did Anthony completely refund the money he did it quickly and with so much understanding that it made me feel bad for canceling. He understood that family comes first and also assured me it was not an issue and would stay on top of my refund. Nowadays many places lack customer service and just being kind to one another as a human PERIOD. I hope to be able to bring my kids here just for that reason and I am happy that I have a place to look forward to bring my kids in this area. Thanks so much!!! We had the fortune to actually rebook after making it to our family event and drove to Corpus. Pretty much no more to add aside from the review above was correct and pure excellence. If it wasn't for their great interactions I wouldn't have even bothered making it down. I'm a huge yelp reader and do more reading than reviewing. I live by reviews lol. Ok let me get to the point....Logan was THE BEST. In addition we met sweet Macy. Those two are chill, cool, and knowledgeable. You can tell they love their job and are happy to be there. That's important with a job period let alone an outdoor one. It's HOT PERIOD! But, thank you all for helping make a fun time for my family. We will be back for sure.

We spent about 90 minutes at this park, primarily on the boardwalk. We also drove to the area along the water, where people were fishing. The road is pretty rutted and uneven. Our purpose in visiting the park was to look for migrating bird species. While I ended up photographing mostly hummingbirds, there were also orchard and Baltimore orioles, scissor-tailed flycatchers, and other migrating species to be found. There are a few shady refuges for those visiting the park, mainly along the boardwalk. One has a good seating area.

They leant us nice binoculars and had a telescope they would focus on the far-away birds and let us look into. In short, they really cared. They were as nutty about birds as their customers, which is what you want and need for an experience like this. The captain was an aviary scholar who happened to captain a tour boat. Perfect.

Kayak fishing is an awesome way to fish spots inaccessible by boat. You can roam the flats catching redfish, trout, and drum while being close to the water and the action. Ty and Theresa are Rockport-area experts and will put you in position to catch a lot of fish. Check out their popular YouTube channel, 30 miles out, to see them in motion. They're also both really great people. They will teach you how to catch fish, no matter your level of experience fishing or kayaking. My wife not only caught her first fish in a kayak on our trip, but applied what she learned to catch a 24 1/2 inch trout the next day! We are definitely looking forward to the next trip!
