About This Rental

Join us at Beach Time RV Park in Gilchrist, TX — a small, friendly park with a spot ready for you! Site #4 features a fully furnished Grand Design Transcend, set up and ready to go on a private gravel pad right on Rollover Bay along the Bolivar Peninsula. No towing, no setup — just pull in your bags and settle in.

Inside, you've got everything you need for a comfortable stay: cozy sleeping for up to 5 guests, a full kitchen, A/C to beat the coastal heat, and a private outdoor space for watching the sun sink over the water. This location also offers 30 Amp and 50 Amp electrical service, a family-friendly atmosphere, and pet-friendly accommodations.

This is an easygoing basecamp for surf fishing, kayaking, birdwatching, or simply slowing down. Cast a line right from the shoreline, launch a kayak into the bay, or make the quick drive to Crystal Beach and the Bolivar Ferry for a day of exploring. And just up the road, the new Rollover Pass Pier is coming soon — a 1,000+ foot T-head pier with night fishing lights, rod holders, fish-cleaning stations, and a bait shop.
