RV Texas Adventure: Alligator Encounters & More at Brazos Bend State Park
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ย. 2018
- Just 30 miles southwest of Houston, Brazos Bend State Park has been the home park for Stacie's family since it opened in 1984. In this video, we make a special day trip to Brazos Bend to give you a tour, show you some of the park's very unique features, and share why we love it so much.
Brazos Bend State Park is a great park for tent or RV camping with 30/50 amp electric and water hookups, shelters and a cabin. With multiple ecosystems including prairies and lakes, woodlands and wetlands, Brazos Bend offers easy hiking and biking on well-maintained trails. And we always see a lot of wildlife when we visit!
And, maybe the most unique feature we've seen at a state park so far: Brazos Bend is home to the George Observatory which is operated by the Houston Museum of Natural Science!
We hope you enjoy this little glimpse into Brazos Bend State Park near Needville, Texas. Add it to your list of Texas State Parks to visit! To see our full write-up, park profile and pictures of Brazos Bend State Park, please visit our website: rvtexasyall.com/region-texas-....

Excellent presentation - Brazos Bend State Park should promote this video about the park
Wow Loda! Thank you so much!! We are so happy that you enjoyed it.
Love the video, will be visiting Brazo Bend later this month with our RV. Thank you for all the good information. Educational too!👍🏻
So glad you enjoyed it Gloria! Enjoy Brazos Bend. This should be a great time of year to visit.
"Y'all" are delightful! Nice, informative tour. Headed to Brazos Bend this weekend for our 1st ever visit, and even more excited after watching your video.
That is a very nice park. Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome David! We always enjoy our visits to Brazos Bend.
Thank you for taking us on a great tour of such a beautiful state park with so many fond memories of your family get togethers. We love it when a state park has so much to see and do. We live with in a few miles of P.F. Hoffmaster state park here in Norton Shores, Michigan. It has a beautiful nature center and tons of hiking that takes you right out to Lake Michigan.
Sounds awesome, Alan! We will definitely have to visit PF Hoffmaster when we get up to Michigan. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent! Very well narrated. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you David! We appreciate it!
Great presentation. Beautiful park !!
Thank you Petra. We’re glad you enjoyed it!
omg thanks
You’re welcome Andres!
Great video! Very informative! We stayed on the right loop around the back at Christmas. It was so nice and secluded even with all the sites near us occupied. I look forward to visiting it again!
I shared this video with my sister for my nephew, who loves to visit Brazos Bend. I'm sure he will enjoy watching!
Thanks Julie! Glad you enjoyed the video. We really enjoyed visiting with y’all yesterday!
no problem best to you both
Enjoyed the video. Have intended to visit this park. Livingston and Huntsville are two of my favs.
With Livingston and Huntsville as 2 of your favorites, you will definitely enjoy Brazos Bend, Karen. Hope you get to visit before too long. :)
Thanks for all the great videos they will help me plan our future trips. Plan on visiting more parks in Texas just started RVing. I'm hooked.
Awesome Alex! Welcome to the fun world of RVing. Y’all have a lot of fun coming up in the future! We are happy to hear that our videos are helping you with your plans. There are so many great places to visit!

My family and my dads friends go camping twice each year. We are going to Brazos Bend State Park In a week! I can't wait to see all the wildlife, this park sounds so fun!
That is awesome Dara! This should be a great time of year to see wildlife there. Have fun!
Loved this video! First thing I noticed was the UH Shirt! My son just graduated from there in June ! We are BIG UH Cougars fans!! He was in The Spirit of Houston Band! So yes, I LOVE your shirt!! #GoCoogs! I can't wait to visit this park soon!! Thanks for taking us!
Hi Tammy! Thank you! We are big UH fans too. I (Stacie) graduated from there. We even took our RV to Atlanta to tailgate for the week when the Coogs played in the Peach Bowl a few years back. Go Coogs! :)
Thats Awesome!!! My son Marched in the Peach Bowl at half time with the band! He had an amazing time!! LOVE finding more Coogs family! Go Coogs!
Very cool!
hi hope doing ok have nice day be safe thanks for video on this park on bucket list
Hi James! Thank you. You will enjoy Brazos Bend.
Loved the alligator portion of your video Stacy. Very interesting.
Was always interested to know the major differences between alligators and crocodiles.
Sending you both hugs and love from California
Thank you Russ! Hugs and love back your way! We always love the opportunity to learn more about the animals we encounter. We’re with you, we find them extremely interesting!
Great video and thanks for sharing :>) I use to frequent that park throughout the 90's and what a true nature experience it was! Once while hiking off of Big Creek I came across a live oak tree that was a good bit larger than the old ones at the information center...all I could say was WOW! I only hope that grand ole live oak survived the drought of 2011 along with the epic flooding events that happened afterwards?? :>(
Thanks Randall! We hope that tree survived also. We just love thinking about what those old trees have seen over their lives. They are amazing!
❤️
Enjoy the park!
☺️😊🙏🏾🙏🏾👏🏾😌🙃 Thank you for the great video
Glad you enjoyed it! We always appreciate you watching. 😀
Let me ask your opinion I am just a weekend warrior and I am over tent camping how do you feel about R-POD 90 by Forest River 🧐?
We don’t have any personal experiences with R-Pods but we have seen quite a few. We like the small size. You could camp in just about any campsite. We think they use the space well. The R-Pod owners we’ve talked with seem to be happy with them.
RV Texas Y'all thank you very much😊😊😌
You’re very welcome! Enjoy your RV shopping!
I guess I need to start carrying cash with me. Never thought about it. I have been nosing around the last few days by driving to Stephen F Austin and Livingston State Parks the last few days in my car to go check them out. Tomorrow (Sunday) i am going to this park. I did have a regret at going to Livingston on a Saturday in June (wow the place was packed). I make most of these runs by watching your videos. 3 more months and I will be in it to win it with a new 5ver! Thank you for your videos!
3 months will fly by! We are so excited for you! Enjoy your day at Brazos Bend! Good hiking over there. Hope to see you out here soon!
@@rvamericayall ack!!! Closed for flooding! drove all the way to gate without knowing!
Oh no! ☹️
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. Going there for the first time. Looking forward to capturing some footage myself. :)
Awesome Jay! Have fun!
@@rvamericayall Thank you so much!.
When we were there, we drove down to Varner Hogg Plantation
Awesome! My (Stacie) aunt used to volunteer at the Varner Hogg Plantation! She and my Mom played there as kids... they lived down the street.
As always, great video. Within the next two months we'll be going to Brazos Bend State Park. Curious if you could recommend a site? We use 30 amp but can adapt to 50 if needed. Would like the site empty on the camping side or a decent amount of space to the next site. You have stated before about being in site 105, which looked good. But, it appears they have done away with this site. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!
Check out sites 213 and 215. They are 30 amp sites in a meadow. We always see tons of deer around those sites.
Great video.....
We enjoyed meeting ya'll at the Dallas RV show.
Kevin
Hi Kevin!! We had a great time meeting y’all also! Tell Jenny Hi!
is there a time limit on how long you can stay in a Texas state park. if there is how long do you have to be out before you can return
Hi Larry! There are some variations & some parks have different length of stay rules depending on the season. For the most part, you’re looking at a 14 day max stay. As far as how long before you can return, we know you can go directly to another Texas State Park. We are not aware of any specific rules for how long you have to be somewhere else befor you return to the same state park.
I have a question. Do y'all have certain days y'all put out videos? Or do y'all just put them up when your ready?
Since July, we have been publishing a video every Sunday. Our goal is to post a new video at 10am Central time each Sunday.
Oh cool..Thanks so much! Can't wait until the next one. I am binge watching all of your others to get caught up! Love y'all!!
Awesome Tammy! Thanks!!! We’re glad to have you with us on this journey! 😁
You should try Bryce Canyon.
Space and nature
Thanks for the tip, Antony! That would be awesome.
I thought only Florida and Louisiana had gators. I love your backpack. What brand is it and where did you get it?
Hi Lina! That is our VanGoddy camera backpack. We have it listed in our Amazon affiliate storefront if you'd like more information on it: amzn.to/2pjZm3n.
thank you
You’re welcome!
is Star a Belgium Mal mix?
She’s a shelter dog so we’re not really sure. We think she’s a Black Mouth Cur mix. We’ll have to look up Belgium Mal. We’re not familiar with them.
She got it wrong. It was hurricane Harvey 2017. That's the hurricane for that year
Sorry, this video was 6 years ago, not sure what the reference is but we experienced Harvey first hand with my parents & sister both losing their houses but we were fine.
It's all good 👍. It's sounds like for 2024 looking like going to be back for hurricane season. I know no one likes hurricane.
Looking bad for 2024.
That was great guys! I didn't know that park had all of that to see. I admit to being a little leery about the gators but we've been to Caddo Lake and that was lovely but we didn't have our dogs at that time. Thanks for the video guys!
Hi David! Thanks! We are a bit more cautious about passing them when we have Star. But we’ve never had a problem. Just like you saw in the video, they’ll usually move on if we are patient. Plus, there are plenty of trails away from the gators and they don’t go around the camping loops.
