This wasn't required as most of the snowbirds had left (I was staying here in early April), so there were lots of empty spots. I found the area to be remote enough to ensure a quite stay, but it was close to shopping and only a short trip to South Padre Island.The amenities are top notch and bathrooms and showers were extremely clean.The staff is very friendly and I appreciated the pro-active phone call to confirm my arrival time. I ended up needing to arrive late and they did a great job letting me know the after hours sign in process and provided a detailed map so I had no issues finding my site.I would highly recommend this location and will use them again in the future.

As others have said, this is a nice place. It’s a very new park and sites are spacious and well laid out. However, train tracks run along the back of the property and a LARGE freight train runs along it 2x per night (at 2 and 3 AM during my visit). I stayed close to the tracks and the sound of the horn and train vibration are hard ...moreAs others have said, this is a nice place. It’s a very new park and sites are spacious and well laid out. However, train tracks run along the back of the property and a LARGE freight train runs along it 2x per night (at 2 and 3 AM during my visit). I stayed close to the tracks and the sound of the horn and train vibration are hard to describe. May be better in other areas of the property.

There are not words to express how wonderful this park is. It will spoil you and make all others campgrounds seem lacking. This park deserves all the stars rating and then more.

It will spoil you and make all others campgrounds seem lacking. This park deserves all the stars rating and then more. When we arrived, we were greeted by Jan, the manager. She is a warm friendly woman who sets the tone for the great customer service we received during our stay in the park. She got us registered and gave us an overview of all the activities that happen in the park and in the park. We were then escorted to our site. Every site is large, 12 feet wide by 90 ft long concrete pads along with a large concrete patio. There is at least 50 feet between each site. This campground is only three years old so it is made for large RVs. The roads within the park are large and easy to maneuver our 40’ fifth wheel. Each site has full hookups that are in the middle of the site so easy hook ups. In addition, there is fiber optic internet for each site. The bathhouses and laundry rooms are scattered throughout the park and are clean and modern.This park goes out of their way to organize all kinds of events within the park (live music, food, margaritas, pickle ball tournaments, shuffleboard tournaments, etc...) and out of the park (zoo visits, sea turtle visits, dinners on South Padre, rodeos and etc.) The best of all was meeting and visiting with the friendly people staying there. There are a few trains that travel through, but once you hear the first one you got use to them. They did not bother us. A few times the wind blew pretty hard, but I will take the wind along with the nice temperatures!! You have heard the saying, "You get what you pay for." At Tropical Trails, you get more than you pay for. It is truly a wonderful place, and we plan on returning next winter.The customer service is the best! All staff are helpful and friendly. There is great communication from them in regards to activities, weather events, mail and anything else you would want to know.

This facility deserves the high ratings it gets. The pool, hot tub, bathrooms and showers are all top notch. The internet here is maybe the best I have ever seen. The instructions may look complicated, but Luis will set it up for you when you arrive. The reasons I did not give it 5 stars is that the park is very exposed.

The instructions may look complicated, but Luis will set it up for you when you arrive. The reasons I did not give it 5 stars is that the park is very exposed. I realize it is brand new and over time the trees will grow, but right now there basically aren't any. There were a couple trains passing by during the night, otherwise it is quiet. This park is pricey. The $6/night "resort fee" on top of an already high per night fee is annoying and unnecessary. Overall, a great place and the host is very nice.

This was a nice place to recharge. Full hookups, clean restrooms and showers and a great pool and hot tub . What’s not to like? Very nice people working there also. On a side note , I had air conditioner problems. Sierra RV fixed it on a Sunday. Can not recommend them enough.

The lady in the front office was very nice, and told us everything we needed to know about the resort.The one thing I absolutely love about Tropical Trails (if I had to pick one) is that the spaces between sites are some of the largest I've seen. It's so refreshing not to be right on top of your neighbor, even if they are super nice (which ours were).Some of the other benefits that I thought were noteworthy:High Speed Internet (ethernet from the pedestal) was very fast (over 100mbit). No issues with multiple 4k stream, and/or Zoom/Teams calls. It's been an absolute joy to carry out my daily work without any network disruption.Cleanliness of the park is incredible, staff is more than welcoming and ready to address any needs.Gated access with PIN code entry is a plus, even though the area seems very nice, and somewhat remote.They provide you with a newer (and clean) picnic table and a nice covered fireplace (and wood!).If I had to find something negative to say it'd be that I wish there was more grass and less dirt between the sites. That said, it's a pretty new park, and I am sure they're working on that. Also, this is TX, not MN. I bet it's harder to get grass to grow due to lack of precip. They have planted a lot of palm (and other) trees, but they're still growing so there isn't much shade at the moment.There are train tracks on the north end of the resort, and we were very close (as close as you can be) to them. Train seems to roll through at about 1030pm every night, but you honestly don't even notice after the first night.We kept extending our stay by a few days here, a few days there as we didn't want to leave, but alas, people are finding this place, and we weren't able to keep our spot any longer.We're heading to FL very soon, but we'll definitely be back to Brownsville and we won't even consider another RV resort.

We come to this area every winter and watched it being built and decided the next time we were in the area to give it a try. The gal making the reservation on the phone and when we arrived was so helpful and sincerely wanted to make things go smoothly for us. You can go the website and see the layout, but suffice it to say the owner really designed this park well. Lots of room between sites, really nice amenities, and super fast fiber optic internet at each site. It seems like you are out in the country yet shopping is just 5 miles away.I hesitated to review this site because I wanted to keep it a secret. But heck, people need to know about this place. I like the idea that this is not a corporate park.There is some noise from FM 511, but not that bad. Also there is a train that comes by once a night that might bother some.
