RV Storage Houston Texas 7 day cruise?

Where should we store our 35' Class A for a seven day cruise from Port of Houston. They have no RV parking at the passenger cruise terminal. We have a tow car to get to the port.

    Another idea... take your unit into a dealer for some service,, wiper blades or oil change,, something cheap,,, go back a week later.. it will not be done,, so pick it up because you got to have it... no charge. :)


    Almost spit my coffee out. Too funny.
  • Is Katy texas ,Houston area close??????

    A rv,er had his rig there 2 months ,and they didnt touch it..(camping world)

    Wait,they did winterize it......L.O.L.
  • Great Idea Jimtoo........L.O.L.
    GEE.. is there a Camping World near there?????
  • That is so true with many RV service schedules. Made me laugh!

  • A less expensive option is a state park or COE (Corp of Engineer) campground. Those are typically around $20/night. Brazos Bend State Park is on the south side of Houston and is a pretty large park with a lot of camping spaces. You'll have to reserve online though because the park does fill up pretty quickly on weekends.

    There's an RV park about 7 miles from the port. Marina Bay RV Resort in Kemah. Might call them to see if they have storage.

    The lot where I keep my TT is also in Kemah. Call A-Zinn Storage at 281-334-3222. Maybe they can help you out. They're good folks.

  • Several years ago about five couples of us signed up for a special "RV Trip" to the Panama Canal and the Western Caribbean from Houston. They specifically allowed for RVs to be parked in the port terminal parking lot without additional cost.

    Have you contacted the parking facility directly? It seems to be only a "policy" restraint, not a space one. The cruise we went on was advertised in Trailer Life Magazine. It was a great trip. We, personally, at the time decided not to take our RV, but our car was parked without cost.
  • I would use an rv park and rent a space.
    It's what I plan to do this summer.
