Tres Rios RV Resort Perfect Texas weather and a trio of rivers make this a destination resort
When choosing a destination, RVers look for a variety of options. Weather is always a consideration. If the RVer is active, then the number of nearby activities is important. And, if the RVer is an angler, a canoer, a boater, or just enjoys water activities, then nearby water is a must. This makes Tres Rios RV Park in Glen Rose, Texas, the place to be. Once onsite, choose from spacious RV sites nestled among native Texas pecan and oak trees on 47 spacious acres. The friendly and helpful staff are ready to help, including planning activities which include cards, bingo, stitching, potluck dinners, wood crafts, nature walks, and more. Major events include the chili cookoff and antique car show, auctions from the American Cancer society, and concerts. There are spacious meeting rooms perfect for family reunions, as well as regular activities including jam sessions, kayak demonstrations, and community clean-ups of the surrounding rivers. It’s a great place to meet old and new friends.
But we haven’t even touched on the water part of the resort. Tres Rios is named for the three Texas rivers that converge on the resort’s southern point—the Brazos River, Paluxy River, and Squaw Creek. The Brazos is popular for tubing, kayaking, and canoeing. The Paluxy is known for numerous dinosaur footprints found in its bed near Glen Rose. The three rivers assure visitors of water fun year-round. Not only are the waters great for fishing—the Brazos River is home to 44 fish species— but the area is a magnet for a large number of bird species including blue herons and bald eagles. Warblers, cranes, plovers, peregrine falcons, woodpeckers, and sandpipers are present throughout the year. Off site, take a day trip to nearby Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose. Long ago, dinosaurs left footprints in the mud at the edge of an ancient ocean. Today, you can walk in their tracks in the bed of the Paluxy River.
