This one hour trip on the Rio Grande River aboard a large pontoon boat is relaxing and informative…read more The captain, John, has lots of knowledge about the area, both on the American and Mexican side of the river. His lighthearted humor while corny, is quite funny. The ride itself is ok from a comfort standpoint as the bench seats are padded and have backs. They sell refreshments and snacks while cruising but we didn't partake so I can't speak of the prices. Reservations are a good idea as our cruise and the one prior to ours were both quite full. They only take cash, no credit or debit cards. We take all our friends and relatives that come to the Valley and this was our fifth or sixth trip. They also have a two hour excursion that goes up the river, but this trip was the one hour, down the river to the Anzalduas Dam. Well worth the cost.

We'd definitely come back here!

McAllen - Miller International Airport (MFE) is a great little Airport. Not too big, not so small…read morethat you cannot get a good meal. The location is excellent, across the street from La Plaza Mall, a hotel, and numerous shops and restaurants. There is also Uber and other similar services available. They have an Explore McAllen Marketplace and Café in the waiting area as well as inside the Terminal. In the Terminal there is also a Café, bar, VIP room, clean restrooms, and free Wi-Fi. There are six gates and two luggage carousels. So, I always smile when flying in and the crew announces, "your checked luggage can be picked up at Carousel Number 2." Just stand in between 1 and 2 , and you'll be positioned perfectly regardless of which Airline. Speaking of airlines, MFE has flights with United, American. Aeromexico, Delta, and limited flights with Allegiant and Volaris. If you arrive from and International location you will go through immigration and customs first downstairs. It has been my experience that the immigration and customs process is more detailed and takes longer here, as they go through every bag. Not a problem if you are behaving. There are also a few car rental desks across from the luggage carousels. Avis, Payless, Hertz, Enterprise, National, Dollar and Thrifty. Budget is a few blocks away, walkable, but not easy in the South Texas heat. They have easy parking for reasonable prices. Short term and long term. Airport Security is also well organized and uses facial recognition. I like this Airport because it's so easy to get in and out. The only times I've seen lines is when multiple airlines have flights departing close to the same time.

I called every few- 5 minutes to the local number. No one answered for three hours! I called the corporate number and there is no record of my reservation in their system. They suggested calling the local number which I did again for the next hour. Finally, I called and spoke an Enterprise agent at the desk next to Avis' he confirmed someone was indeed sitting at the desk and not busy. Immediately, I called again and again for another 30-45 - hour kept calling NO ONE picked up the phone despite being physically next to the phone!!! Very unprofessional. Why not answer the phone? Isn't that part of your job? I will never rent from AVIS again! Enterprise didn't have cars available so I went to Avis. I learned a valuable and potentially expensive lesson, if they have no record of the reservation or me returning it. But, they have my credit card number. I am going to put a block on the card. This isn't necessary at all! Do your job Avis agent at MFE!!!

La Feria East, West and Breeze Wood RV Parks are contiguous, owned and operated by the same people…read more Observations; Some La Feria RV Park West and Some RGV: Workers and customers were friendly and polite. The resident assistant managers had a laissez-faire approach. They tried hard to keep the customers, workers and owners happy. After the 2022-2023 season most staff resigned due to the owners failure to inform them of new policies. Population in the park is consistent with small villages; teetotalers, imbibers, religious, non believers, MAGA enthusiast, independents, never MAGAs. Rates, electricity and essentials are competitive. The park is adult only, meaning young adults with younger children are permitted. Locals are friendly and polite. Feels safe to walk the streets. The locals have a great street festival in February. The park has a variety of activities. Park is clean and mowed frequently. Clubhouse, restrooms and laundry area are clean. Hot Tub is relaxing when working. Mail is sorted daily. Facilities are dated and worn. Always have some water stored in your potable water tank. The old water lines break often resulting in outages and muddy water. The city water in La Feria is nasty tasting and smells. Most buy purified bottled water, now $.50/Gal, or have the individual treatment systems. Local establishments includes McDonalds, Whataburger, Subway, Church's Chicken, Stripes, Stars, Dominos, Subway, Little Caesars and Dairy Queen. A CVS pharmacy. Three local diners and a wing joint. Multiple dollar stores and a Grocery/Hardware store. Quiet late evenings, early mornings and weekends. Ambient noise is manageable, particularly for those with some hearing loss. Eight miles to the nearest Walmart and major stores. 10 to 15 miles to the better restaurants. 7 miles due north of the border. 16 miles from the safe Progresso border crossing. 50 miles to South Padre Beach and SpaceX Boca Chica. 35 miles NW of Matamoros MX where it has been deadly for visitors. Occasional train track noise within two city blocks. 5am to 9pm interstate traffic noise within 75 yards. A large concrete block manufacturer within 2 city blocks causing fine dust blowing into the park. Burning the Cane can be a problem for those with respiratory issues and allergic to black ash. A heavy manufacturing facility near the rear of the park has a noisy exhaust fan. Head Start is adjacent to the rear of the park with the happy or not so happy children's voices. A dozen older park models. Annually there is at least one stray dog or cat that wanders into the park. The Winter Texans try to find them homes. The occasional rat will find its way into a unit, damaging electrical and plumbing. On one occasion a rat made it back north with the RV. Gnats and flies are plentiful during the warm/hot days. During sunny 90 degree plus days many RV AC units struggle maintaining a comfortable temperature. Ants and termites can be a problem if precautions are not taken. Mosquitos are unmanageable in the summer after a heavy rain. Flooding has occurred during the summer and the clubhouse has suffered water damage. Sewer gas oder is noticeable in some areas. Occasionally there are heavy wind gusts exceeding 35 mph. Each year someone loses an unattended awning or power lines come down. Avoid parking under a transformer if possible. Electric poles with a transformer have blown down causing a RV fire. A generator is nice to have. In the past much of Texas has been without electricity for longer thn your batteries can supply power during sub 40 degree temperatures. La Feria is economically challenged ranking in the bottom 10 percentile of many economic categories. Medical care in the RGV is adequate but overwhelmed at times. During the height of COVID, one fatality and around a dozen positive cases of customers choosing to ignore safety measures. New owners are nickle-and-diming long term loyal customers having last minute medical or rig trouble and not being able to pull out on their schedule date. New owners in 2022 with many rumored changes in 2023 and beyond.
