Last week, the riverfront resort won the “Park of the Year” award in the large park category from the Texas Association of Campground Owners for the third year in a row. It has also won top ratings from the nation’s leading campground directories.
The park borders the Guadalupe River with 212 RV sites including pull throughs with 30 and 50 amp service, as well as wireless Internet and cable television service. It also has 46 park models, 17 cabins, three swimming pools (including an indoor heated pool during the winter), hot tub, dry heat sauna, steam sauna, exercise room, laundry rooms and two large recreation halls, plus an attractive onsite bar with indoor and outdoor seating.
“We’re still the only RV park in Texas with a liquor license,” Temple said, adding that the onsite bar is a popular amenity for RVers who like to enjoy their drinks without having to worry about getting back on the road. Temple also has barbecues on weekends, which are always well attended.
The bar has also become a favored hangout for active and retired law enforcement officers, from Texas Rangers to U.S. Marshals, which helps ensure that Temple never has any problems with his bar patrons. “On any given night, there are at least five badges in the crowd,” he said. Temple is currently expanding the bar to include a new outdoor stage and dance floor.
But while the improvements and amenities and fine customer service ensure repeat business for his park, Temple said the ratings and awards help put Guadalupe River RV Resort on the map. “People pay attention to ratings,” he said.
