Traveler advice
What to pack
Bring water shoes if you are going to the river or lake.
Very rocky, can be slippery etc.
-Bring floats-tubes if going to spend time int he river or lake.
Getting around
Deer (Caution)
There are deer and wildlife all around. Be careful driving and aware of surroundings outside. Birds love the house, we are trying to get them to love other peoples houses instead of only ours!
What to pack
Bring tubes or buy them!
They sell them at Bucees and HEB.
Ordering food curbside at the HEB and picking up off 306 is the easiest and my best advice.
Bring a cooler- order ice with your food- put the cold items in there with ice, and everything else around it.
Head to the house!
