Need Advise on Heading South for the Winter from NW Iowa

My bucket list has NM written all over it and when I was looking for places to stay I ran across Hidden Valley It I remember its north of Deming in the mountains and it really looked nice. I spoke with them and they seemed friendly and helpful. Also, I see they have some great reviews.

North Central Iowa here. We usually go to Carthage Mo. for the first night and de-winterize then head for the Bolivar peninsula, take the ferry to Galveston and head for the Rockport area. Check out Palacios Tx. on the way, look for Serendipity RV resort on the way. Have a great trip!
P.S. We avoid Houston by going to Beaumont then I-10 to Winnie then south.

Des Moines area here. We head straight south to Carthage, MO also, where we dewinterize at Coachlight RV Park. If its still too cold there we sometimes head on down to Oklahoma City to Twin Fountains RV Park where we dewinterize.

Once at Oklahoma City we follow I-35 down to San Antonio then take 281 to McAllen. Now you're in the Rio Grande Valley and have 300-400 RV parks to choose from all the way from Palmview west of McAllen or east down to Brownsville and South Padre Island.

Other times we will cut down from Carthage to Sherman, TX (Lazy "L" Rv Park) and then head over to I-35 and the west side of Fort Worth and then on down to the Valley.

Just some ideas on fishing:

Good luck!

Rockport is now closed as they reached their max on winter texans:)

Well it finally happened. We headed south on the 2nd and are at Waco, TX. Cold is hitting here also so staying one more night then will head to San Antonio for a few days. Any recommendations on where to stay there? KOA is right in the heart of town but a little pricey but we are thinking it might be worth it to be centrally located. Not sure where to go next as it's cold all over. How is it where you are at and is there any room in the inn?

I like the looks of the Blazing Star Luxury RV Resort on the West side of San Antonio along North Loop 1604 west. Very nice, a bit expensive at $41-$61/night. The $61/night is 30' foot wide lot with concrete pads and a wooden deck. Never stayed there but I'd do it for a night or two just to pamper myself. Blazing Star Luxury RV Resort, San Antonio


I also thought that Stone Creek RV Park located along I-35 just NE of San Antonio looked very nice and interesting. Pull thru, 50 amp is $40/night, 30 amp is $37.50//night.Stone Creek RV Park, San Antonio


KOA is running around $41-$45/night.

PS-I'd head south to the Rio Grande Valley, ASAP. It's going to warm up very nicely there. By Friday it'll be 85-90F, by Thursday 70's F. From what I hear, there is plenty of room at the inn in the Valley. Nearly 500 RV Parks and most all have some spaces left if not a lot of spaces left.

Come to the WARMEST place in the continental USA, Yuma AZ.
