Layover On the Waterfront

We were headed from Mission, Texas, to Sugar Land, Texas, for Christmas.  The trip was a bit too far for one day, so we had a “layover” in Rockport, Texas, at the Goose Island State Park. 


We were only there for one night, however, our campsite backed up to the Gulf of Mexico (well, it’s Aransas Bay but Gulf waters)!  We had a beautiful view of the “Gulf”, along with some encounters with deer near our campsite as well as many waterfowl, thousands of schooling fish and just one little jellyfish. 


Review of Goose Island State Park

We got some good pictures, but we can’t say too much about Goose Island State Park since we were only there for one night; however, we can say that it is someplace we would like to spend more time in the future.  It was our first experience without a sewer hook-up at our site, but we learned how to use the dump station (yay?🙁) on the way out.  The sites are very isolated and quiet.  The view of the water is mesmerizing.

We will definitely return!
