This week, we're bringing you 2 parks in 1 video! Brackenridge Recreation Complex just outside of Edna, Texas is home to Texana Park and Brackenridge Park. The parks sit right across the road from each other and are both owned and operated by the Lavaca-Navidad River Authority. When you camp at either park, you have access to all of the amenities at both parks! Each park offers RV camping, tent camping and cabins, and both have access to Lake Texana.
Texana Park was once Texana State Park. In this video, we show you some of the many amenities here, and share a bit of the history on the parks. In our opinion, Brackenridge and Texana Parks are true destination parks and we look forward to visiting again.

Hey y'all! We hope you enjoyed this visit to Brackenridge Recreation Complex. What a unique place! We'll have a full park write-up on our website soon. Have you been to Texana or Brackenridge Park? We'd love to hear about your experiences there!

@los5manantiales 3 года назад

You talk just good things about our parks. Im actually just around the corner and have never beento the park. I live at Cape Carancahua just a couple of miles from the park. Just because of this video I will now have to visit that park and will even rent a place to stay. gracias amigos!

@CCaudits 3 года назад

Give em hell Tom. Leaving trash on the trail is UN-called for. That aggravates me too, to no end.

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Thanks Ty! We agree 100%.

@brianlykins6663 2 года назад

Really enjoy your videos. Glad to see this very nice parks. And I do have to agree with you, if you bring it in, take it out. Why it is that people think it's ok to walk through a pristine area and throw trash or not pick up after they're dogs. If you enjoy that type of hiking, go to your local landfill and spend the day. A few folks can really mess things up for everyone. Or they can just shut places down so no one can enjoy it. You guys are great and go to amazing places. Keep up the great work. God bless y'all , take care and have a blessed day.

awesome video, I have been camping in the texana side for the past 5 years, and every time i go i have an amazing time. Lake texana park is my number 1 spot for crappie fishing. The staff is super friendly and it is well kept. I try to go at least 5 times a year

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Glad you enjoyed the video! We can absolutely see why you go as often as you do. We look forward to our next visit there.

You're right Margie... we love the trees. Nice to have such great parks so close to your home.

Tom got a little irritated about the trash. Same as me. It burns my buns to see people trash a place. I often pick up trash in a local park by our house. Thanks for the video! Love seeing the parks where y’all are staying.

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Thanks Walter! It’s a shame that we have to pick up other folks’ trash, but we always try to leave places cleaner than we found them.

@PopsCustomSignsLLC 3 года назад

I have camped in both campgrounds numerous. We always stayed at the old Texana State Park back when it first opened. The state did a decent job of maintaining the ark until funding was cut. But LNRA has done a PHENOMENAL job maintaining the park since taking it back over. The staff at both parks are friendly, helpful and professional!! The trails are not normally trashy.....sorry you found them that way.....but thank you for stating what needed to be said Tom!! I prefer site #104 at Texana......but I doubt your rig will fit that site. Thanks for another beautiful video! Frank Jenkins "Pops"

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Hey Pops! Thanks for the tip on site 104. There are some great looking campsites in these parks. We definitely look forward to going back. We are very impressed with the LNRA parks.

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Hey Brent! We love those booties. And she really likes them too. They have made it much easier for her to hike or go for walks in hot weather and in places with stones and sticker burrs. We have them listed in our Amazon store when you are ready to look at them. These are very well made. www.amazon.com/shop/rvtexasyall

@edbennett1751 3 года назад

Tom, I applaud you for picking up someone else's trash and then scolding them for leaving it behind; I share your displeasure. But, for your health and safety, please use either a trash picker or gloves. My wife and I travel all summer long and we find trash on the ground frequently. I too used to just pick it up and carry it to the nearest trash can with unprotected hands; so, I'm not w/o shame. I carry gloves to pick up trash now. Keep up the great videos and reviews. Can't wait to travel outside and tour the U.S.

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Thanks Ed! Great point. Safe travels.

@randallalan4221 3 года назад

Right there at 7:20 I couldn't agree with you more...sadly these days seems too many people have forgotten what a trash can is used for :>( My sister-in-laws grandmother lived in Edna, Texas (she passed some years back) and after watching this video I think it's time to revisit :>) Safe and Happy Trails to ya'll!

Thanks Randall! It is a real shame that so many folks are okay with leaving their trash behind. This area is definitely worth a revisit! Have fun!

@glennbeattie6172 3 года назад

Don't snarl at me! I didn't leave that trash! Often times when there is trash outside of a garbage can, It's not humans fault. Animals will pull trash out of a can. Which is why you don't often see them on trails.

@rvamericayall 3 года назад

Fair point Glenn. We don't think an animal was the cause of these bottles though, and unfortunately, we've seen an increase in trash in some park areas lately.
