Eric & Jay's RV Resort has launched in Houston, Texas during a time in which more Americans have expressed interest in RV trips amid the pandemic.
The resort was founded by Jay Fields and Eric Houston, two friends who had a "long-held dream" of creating an RV resort in their hometown, Houston, according to the company's website. Now, their dream RV resort has come to life, just a short drive away from the Texas Medical Center, Houston Zoo, and the Museum District.
Its location is strategic: along with the obvious tourism market in Houston, the 10-acre resort also hopes to serve staff and patients from the Medical Center, according to a statement by Fields. To cater to this, the resort has set up a daily shuttle service to the medical center.
"Our goal for this endeavor has been two-fold: creating a passion project that would tap into our shared interests while filling a niche in an underserved market," Fields said in a statement.
The resort has 114 slips that range from 30 feet to 40 feet to accommodate the multitude of RV sizes. Each slip includes water, power, sewer connections and a picnic table. The power connection comes from power pedestals ranging from 20, 30, or 50 amps.
The property also holds a 3,300-square foot clubhouse styled to resemble a "modern farmhouse" with warm colors.
The check-in area and sundry shop are both located in the clubhouse, which also houses a gym, game room with coffee, business center with two offices, laundry center, and spa shower rooms.
The resort has a pool and jacuzzi with a grilling and dining area, all of which overlooks the "green space" with a pond for fishing.
There's also WiFi and a propane refueling stations.
A gas station, market, barber, and liquor store are all within walking distance from the resort.
...and will soon be releasing a programming calendar for more leisure and entertainment options for its guests.
A night's stay starts at $56, but there's also a separate pricing option for guests who plan to stay long-term.
