Winter Haven Resort
Paul Delano
This is a 55+ resort. E stayed last season and fell in love with the park and people. Bought a place this season. It is a place for active retired people but you can also relax and enjoy the 3 pools, tennis courts, etc. Also plenty of activities to enjoy each week. Dances and dinners at the clubhouse. Quiet and clean, it’s just a nice place to rent or live. We have tried a lot of places in the RGV. This is the best.

My Mother has a place there. She has been harassed multiple times by a tenant. He described in detail in a text sexual explicit actions he was taking against her. We are talking about vulger acts on an 89 year old widow woman. At this time to my knowledge no action has been taken by the board. At this point she and my Brother who is also an owner are concerned for her and their safety. And have avoided Winterhaven for most of the winter. This is a very disappointing situation.

Clean well kept residence park with multiple paved pull through sites with palm trees grass and full hook ups. Coast to coast area and special pricing for weekly rates. There pools. Very nice park.

My husband and I moved here and just planned on staying for the summer. We rented from a wonderful couple here in the park. Two and a half years later we are still here because we love winter haven! The people are very welcoming, the staff is top notch, and this place is just gorgeous. Everything is well maintained, Tom the manager keeps this place running like a well oiled machine! There are so many fun activities such as: three pools, a spa, dances with live bands, dinners at the lovely clubhouse, bingo, card games of all types, a billiards room, chess club, tennis, pickle ball and so much more. Being close to south padre island is great for fun beach outings, great food and plenty of entertainment. Brownsville is a safe and welcoming place, with lots of great eating establishments, shopping and activities. Whether you are a winter Texan or live here all year round you will definitely enjoy this beautiful park!

During cold weather, the clubhouse has no way to keep warm and comfortable.

Probably the most desirable Winter Texan destination. The park has an artificially made resaca which is very appealing. They also have a community garden and are environmentally minded with a composting area. However, I did not notice a recycling area.

We rented an RV space for a few days. Beautiful, 55 plus park. Clean and secure, with 24 hour guard at the gate. Very nice people are here. Renters and owners and Winter Texans all. We will definitely be back again.

I would start out by saying this is not a real RV resort. You really need to own a site, have a golf cart, not care about the ambience or lack thereof, and have exhausted all Walmart parking lots before choosing this as a place to stop. The WiFi service advertised is really non existent unless you have your own provider and the park have a set of the necessary hardware available to hook up your own service. We gave up trying to get connected and when querying the office they tell you that the WiFi service is really dedicated to the people who are resident there? Go figure??? The real scam is their rules for providing refunds for RV campers who have to change their itinerary. When asked about a refund since we were leaving one day early the response was "on our website is says you need to give us 30 days notice about a change of stay if you want your money back"! If you have to go there don't pay for an extended stay online. It's fairly obvious this location is not ideal for the real RV camper. The few transient sites are not private and scream "your not one of us". The installation seems to reflect a management focused on steady income and long term residents and no time for short stay RV campers. So be aware that they are not recommended by Good Sam not a KOA and cater to 55 and older. Try going to Island Breeze that is managed according to a whole different mindset. We missed going there because of flooding and overly wet sites. These folks told us that we might get stuck and did not want to see us ruin our vacation due to unseasonal rains. What a bummer! However, we left the $40 dollars behind, breathed a sigh of relief, and never looked back.

My family had a very lovely time here! The staff was affable and accommodating for all of our needs for the site we chose. Other sites are owner based so it all depends on who you choose to stay with for the price. The whole place was nicely maintained and had a nice aura. The sites were rather adequate in space and there was a lot to choose from for any size rig. The location was really beautiful as there were so many things in the resort and a lot of great places to shop and eat that were only a short drive away. We can’t wait to go back! - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group

A beautiful park, the roads are paved and the sites are level. We were in a area near the front of the park. The spaces were long enough to fit our 34' 5th wheel with no problems with our truck. But be sure to have extra long hoses and power cord. Space width was adequate, this area was nice but the other parts of this park were beautiful. A lot of the park is owner lots. And they are building homes there. There are many canals with a garden feel. There are 2 pools and 2 laundry rooms. We had good WiFi. - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group

The name of this place is very fitting as this is like a little haven, a getaway, a tremendously nice campground/resort. The staff was super nice and helpful. I particularly liked the layout of the park. It was easy to navigate and find where we were at all times. With my little ones that is a big thing for me. The facilities were always clean and also nice in design. The price was just right for how many amenities they offered. There was so much I couldn’t believe it. They really did a great job in providing a nice place to relax (especially in the pool!) Well worth every penny and time!! - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
