Links to what others are saying about Pecan Grove:

Airstream Life: "Part of the fun is Pecan Grove RV Park, a funky oasis in the middle of Austin. This is an old-time park that the city grew around over the years, and one of the last RV parks where you can camp just blocks from downtown of a major city. It has a mix of permanent residents and transients like us, plus a few eccentric millionaires."

A review on Yelp says "Knowing someone with a trailer here is like knowing someone with a boat - you suck up to them...For ACL [Austin City Limits], REALLY suck up to your friends, since this short walk to Zilker cannot be beat with the promise of an air-conditioned trailer to regroup or nap in..."

Tumblewagon: "The park itself is a wonderful little community of mostly people who either live here as their primary place of residence, or have a permanent place to retreat to on the weekends. They have made this little slice of land in the middle of the city of Austin into not only a cozy campground-feeling place to stay for a few nights (or in our case, a months) but also a real neighborhood."

BareNakedFamily: "We arrived in Pecan Grove and were immediately sucked into the very cool groove in this park. This ain't Grandma's RV park!"

There was a huge uproar in the "Keep Austin Weird" community with confusion that Pecan Grove was to be torn down to make way for a massive condo project. Partly true, it was actually our neighbor, the Shady Grove RV Park that was lost "In the Shadow of the Condo." The saddest loss was the massive pecan trees, some hundreds of years old. There was an agreement with the developer to save some of the largest ones, but a hail storm that came up at an unfortunate time prevented that from happening. I guess it was inevitable that the value of this prime real estate would dictate a higher density use, but still, so sad...Let's hope they really do "Save the Nuts" at Pecan Grove!
