    Thank you for this video! We just made reservations here for 2 weeks in March after watching your video 👍🤩 we are so excited!! We want to reserve another 2 weeks, but have to wait to do that one. It looks like a beautiful park and surrounding area. Once again you have given us valuable information - we appreciate it so much!! Safe travels friends ❤

      Glad it was helpful! Shelley this truly is a wonderful RV park. It is truly a resort. It even has a free ice maker machine to fill your cooler. The hot tubs and pool area remind me of a Caribbean resort. The state parks we mentioned in the video are worth a visit too! Lou

    I'm setting about 10 east of Victoria Palms at Llano Grande Resort, today it's a balmy 48 degrees. No what is the norm for south Texas. A clipper from the north jumped off track and has been making cabin critters out of us and it's not going to change for at least 5 more days.
    South Texas is a very friendly area, Winter Texans are warmly welcome coming and sorry to see you leave.

    That is a very pretty Resort. I love the Palm Trees there and we are looking forward to heading back towards Texas not this winter but the next. The lights on the palm trees were so cool. The sunrise was just breathtaking. Great Shot of the Alligator.

    This was our first Encore and we went just after Christmas. The weather was great until the day we left. Enjoyed a day trip to south Padre Island, dipped our toes! We will go back for sure

    Wow is this nice place. The palm tree entrance so inviting👍 One of the prettiest parks I’ve seen. Tks for sharing. New Sub. Guessing the empty sites are Canadians who couldn’t cross the closed borders.

    Great park! We are trying to head there this spring. Ginger went down there for dental work and stayed at a friend’s home, but we are planning to go together in April. Thanks for sharing!

    Hello ! Oh my, you really hit a home run with this video!! Very nice, and sparkling clean RV resort that you stayed at !! I loved ALL its feature's. The grounds were so lovely, and the tall palm's...spectactular !!! Loved it at night with the lights shinning up each palm!!! The modular homes were really cute also. Are they for rent? The on site Restaurant was really nice,and convenient. Was it open?(or not, due to covid) and what kind of restaurant was it? Your trip to the nearby World Birding Center was a real treat ! I am a birdwatcher of sorts,and oh, how beautiful those birds were in your video, absolutly stunning! Your other excursion to the Estero Llano Grande State Park was really cool. Loved seeing the alligator, but...wasnt too keen on seeing the "snake habitat" sign, lol . Now the best part that I loved at the resort was...the Pool area, and the hot tub area ! I love how they had the little "cabanna's" they had , so you could hit the shade if you got too hot in the sun. At night....the changing lights in the pool, ahhhh so relaxing. I'll bet you all had a blast ! Thanks for a VERY informative and enjoyable video ! Vicky

      Hi Vicky. We stayed at several destinations in the Rio Grande Valley (stay tuned) and this RV resort was without question the best. The resort does lease both RV campsites and modular homes (monthly, seasonal, and annual). There were also properties for sale. Thanks for watching! Lou

    Did you see them allow anyone under 55 there during that time. Even for a few days (especially since was empty)?

    • @LivingOurDreamNow
      @LivingOurDreamNow  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Other than a few grandchildren, we did not see anyone staying on property under 55 years of age.

    Beautiful. Do you know by chance if they have attractive monthly rates for non-Thousand Trail members?

    • @LivingOurDreamNow
      @LivingOurDreamNow  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good time to negotiate a monthly or seasonal rate. Many of the sites were vacant in high-season.

      @@LivingOurDreamNow I noticed that and was wondering why. Possibly the pandemic.
