Many people complain about the expense and difficulties of finding RV resorts in Florida and Arizona in the winter. But we hardly ever hear these complaints about wintering in Texas.
When looking at a map of Texas, take your eyes down to the furthest point south, right near the gulf. This southernmost tip of Texas is part of the Rio Grande Valley, and filled with winter destinations.
Being so far south, and so close to the gulf of Mexico, the climate is nice and warm in winter months. This makes the area a very popular destination for ‘Winter Texans’. We loved how welcoming this region is for their winter guests.
In our research there are nearly 70 RV parks in this region. We chose to stay at Fun N Sun RV Resort for a few reasons. First being that we had heard so much positive feedback about it from friends.
Why Fun N Sun RV Resort Instead of Other Resorts in the Area?
Second being that we can stay here for no nightly fee with our Thousand Trails Membership with the Trails Collection upgrade. Plus, some friends were staying at the resort at the time, so it seemed a perfect time and place to check out what the RV Resorts in the Rio Grande Valley are all about.
The main draws to this area are the warm winter weather, welcoming community, and excellent amenities offered in the RV Resorts. But many will love the close proximity to South Padre Island and Mexico.
Did you know that Texas is one of the largest producers of wine in the United States, and that their wines have won many international competitions? The reason that most people outside of Texas don’t know about it is because Texas wineries sell all of their wines within their state’s borders!
