WirelessTrips.com Campground Review: Gulf Waters Beachfront Resort, Port Aransas, Texas

This is the “non-review” review.
We would have liked to review this campground’s facilities and WiFi, but they wouldn’t let us into the park.
I was told on the phone that this is an owner RV park and that the owners don’t allow RVs older than 10 years. Ours is a 1989 model.
This is the first time I’ve ever encountered this.
Our RV needs a wash after the trip from Maine, but other than that it is in very good condition. In fact, people have a tough time believing it is as old as it is.
I wonder how these guys treat RVers who have vintage or restored RVs?
So if your rig is older than 10 years from the date you want to stay, don’t bother with this place. They won’t allow you in.

We stayed at this RV Resort this past weekend. It was really pretty nice. They sell these lots and we saw one in Real Estate magazine for $87k!! It was close to the beach yet not sandy and was well laid out and landscaped. We’ll go back for sure. Oh, the WiFi even though we were close to the pole with the WiFi antenna the signal wasn’t all that strong. But it was fast and worked well. We were told it was “Free” and then they said, it’s free for the first 24 hours. But it cost $3.99 a day. We used it one day thinking it was free, but found when we go home it wasn’t.
They did ask for the year for our trailer and the size. Turns out we were new enough but just barely big enough. It cost $33 a day.
As I said, we’ll go back. We’ve thought of renting for a month during the Winter and using it as a “weekend” home away from home, but it’s $500 a month during the winter.
Too bad they didn’t let you in.
