This one of our favorite Rv parks, we couldn't even wait to get back home to write this review. If…read moreyou are looking for a children friendly Rv park in the valley, well this is definitely the place! It's full of gorgeous nature all around us! The serenity you get is unbelievable calming to walk at all hours of the day or night being able to here all types of birds, cricket chirping. The safety surroundings you feel made us extend our time:) We were dealing with some very difficult circumstances with my mother in law, every time we would pull up to park we would immediately feel the tranquil we so needed. Thank you Kathy&Bill for your warm hospitality upon our late night arrival. And Bills guidance helping us pull our trailer in our beautiful space, after driving three days made a world of difference, we hope to see you guys very soon! P.S. one more thing you're salt water swimming pool was amazing amazing we couldn't get enough of it after some very long days Thank you once again sincerely Coronado family

When showering if someone else runs the water you will get scorched by the hot water in your shower. I had to call the police once for a guy walking in the park that appeared intoxicated. Price was very reasonable and the people we met were absolutely awesome . Many things to do and all were very enjoyable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I did enjoy our stay overall.

I fly through here regularly and have never had a problem. Since this is a smaller airport, lines…read moreare not usually long unless there are two flights headed out around the same time. I can usually check into my flight and get through TSA security easily in 10 to 15 minutes. If you don't have pre-check it may take a little longer. The airport was recently remodeled and expanded and functions really well. As you approach TSA there will be a Border Patrol agent who may ask to see your documentation. If you don't fly often, get familiarized with what is allowed in your carry-ons and prepare accordingly. It's frustrating when others in front of you have not done their homework, have not prepared, or think they don't have to follow the rules, so they hold up the lines for everyone else. Yes, going through security is a little inconvenient, but it's for our safety. The employees here have always treated me with dignity. The pre-check lane is open all the time these last couple of years. While pre-check people are not required to remove their belt, my belt buckle is a little larger than some as the belt is reversible. So I always remove it prior to getting in line. This airport still usually requires pre-check people to remove their computer and electronics from the case. It pays to ask as the rules change. Be respectful, follow the rules and you should have a smooth experience.

The activity director goes above and beyond trying to have as many activities as possible for everyone. Yes, for active residents there is pickleball, horseshoes etc, there are also many many activities for mobility challenged individuals as well, card games galore, crafts, glass adventures, rock shop etc. This is the only park I know of that has activities every single night in the summers so permanent residents can stay busy year round should they choose to. Agreed there are water issues and management changes but that's going to happen anywhere. Overall, could not be more pleased to call Bentsen Grove my home.

It's a beautiful resort, wonderfully maintained pools and continued improvements to facilities to ensure resident safety and satisfaction. With any location there are changes, updates and adjustments from time to time, and this resort is no different, except the people here make all the difference and management truly does the best they can to communicate and more importantly, listen to the needs/wants of residents and Winter Texans. Nothing is perfect anywhere, choosing Bentsen Grove Resort was the best decision we've made and can't imagine being anywhere else. Best resort in the RGV!

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.
