We are in Conroe, TX now. We are putting this in our must do. Great video.

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Be sure to catch the sunrise. More than several were spectacular during our stay. Lou

[@martyh4777]

We stayed a week at Magnolia Beach exactly a year ago. Truly an amazing boondocking place. I used the outside shower a few times to freshen up (@ 55 degree Fahrenheit) after a sunny day on the beach. I would be nice if the small town of Magnolia Beach would have a couple of stores, restaurants, and bars in walking distance.

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Thanks for sharing and thank you for watching Marty. Much appreciated.

[@steveleonard1227]

Wow. Almost a full year since you shot this video and what a change in fuel prices! Thanks for the video. This been a fairly regular stop on our way further south, in the winter escaping winter.

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Thanks for watching our channel Steve. Hope you stick around for more of our content. Lou

[@margegrafton3232]

Thank you. You definitely helped me make up my mind. Can't wait to get there in December!!

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Have fun! Thanks for watching. Lou

[@ms.e585]

I really appreciate all your videos. So nice to see what's there waiting for us. I also appreciate that you're giving us a peek at the restroom/shower facilities when available. It is some important insight for those of us traveling in smaller vehicles that don't plumbing! I hope you are having as wonderful a time as your videos show. Again, thank you so much for this and *all* your wonderful, detailed, videos!

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

You are so welcome! Your kind feedback is much appreciated. Thank you for riding along with us.

[@ouRVisionnomadicliving]

Great Video, we just left there on Feb. 20th, and seeing it makes me want to go back. We spent a week here in Feb. 2020, returned on Feb. 7, 2021 right before the severe winter storm hit Texas. On Feb. 14th we were the only ones left on the beach. But hey, we are used to winter camping, just didn't expect to be camping in freezing temps for a week in southeastern Texas. Safe Travels you two!! 👍 Sean & Angie

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Sean & Angie, Awesome feedback. We just missed the cold snap as we departed Texas for Florida. Life on the road definitely needs to be flexible. Thanks for watching! Lou

[@raythehaulingguymignery5223]

Great video as usual. We quarantined there February And March 2020. Campground let us dump and refill fresh 💧. Wash your rig after salty air.

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Thanks for the info and thanks for watching Ray!

[@raythehaulingguymignery5223]

No problem been following you guys since Carlesbad caverns blm chosa camp. . Saw our 5th. Wheel in your video. Lol

[@edwardtesterman9772]

........Ahhhh, sooo nice!! Wow, that sunrise!! Breathtaking!!! Beautiful place ! thanks, vicky

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Our pleasure! Happy Sunday Vicky. Lou

[@shaunnajantz2900]

I just added this to my bucket list thanks for sharing beautiful. I love the water

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

It's so good! Really this is a great place to boondock.

[@wcrvadventures9489]

Hey Shaunna! How about this spot for your wedding? Wayne and Carrie 😃

[@houstoncountylake]

Very informative. Many thanks to you. I’m guessing fires aren’t allowed?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Self contained propane fires should be okay, but camp fires are not allowed on this pristine hard shelled beach. Thanks for watching. Lou

[@SaltyVetAdventures]

Nice video, thanks for sharing! I can't wait to make my way down there. How many days are you able to stretch your boondocking?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Hi Salty, You pose a great question. Pre-COVID we could boondock about 12 days before having to dump our tanks. However, during COVID we are almost exclusively using our on-board facilities and the black tank will only make it 6 or 7 days before we have to dump.

[@rodneyotobias8604]

Thanks for showing your adventure there looks like a nice place how many batteries are using with your solar set up thanks for your time to make the videos

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

I have three 100 amp hour batteries. The 680 watts of solar has served us well. Thanks for watching!

[@rodneyotobias8604]

Thanks for information

[@wcrvadventures9489]

So nice! I sorry if I missed it, what time of the year was this filmed?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

We stayed here in mid December. Thanks for watching! Lou

[@weazybeazy]

Love following you guys! Just about to sign to buy a Chinook RV,,,by the time it would be ready to go out,,I'll be heading probably Arizona and then Colorado..I am a newbie and a retired single woman,,so also want to check out 1000 trails.

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Hi Claire. A camping pass is affordable and will give you a feel for if Thousand Trails is for you. We get a lot of value out of our membership. Lou

[@sbanks1491]

How close was the nearest dump and fresh water station?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

We usually cycle between hookups and dry camping so we probably did not have the need for a dump station during our visit. Generally, if the information you seek is not found within the four corners of the video, chances are I wouldn't recall anyway. We've visited over a thousand camping areas to date. Lou

[@harrywest8100]

Great video. What batteries do you have?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

In the rig shown in this video I had Battle Born lithium batteries.

[@chucknewman3445]

How does this compare to Padre Island for "on the beach" camping?

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

Stay tuned. I have more than several more beach camping videos forthcoming for Texas

[@chucknewman3445]

@@LivingOurDreamNow that's awesome. Our adventure finally begins this coming Sunday. We're taking 6 days to get to Padre Island. Hopefully that gives Texas some time to dig out and warm back up.

[@brendaloyd907]

But it’s not totally free right. You have to pay the $12

[@LivingOurDreamNow]

There is no fee to camp here. You may be thinking about another boondocking area several hours north and on the beach, not Port Lavaca Bay. If you are subscribed to my KZbin Channel, you'll see this video in April.
