Admiralty RV Resort, Feb 21 to March 21, 2018

Rating:  3.0 on a scale of 5



Location: This park is situated on the west side of San Antonio with easy access to main roads, grocery stores, pharmacy, etc. We visited the Texas Hill Country from here and really enjoyed the numerous state and city parks accessible from this location. 

Lot size: The lots here are a little too small for our liking. We reserved 1.5 lots so we had a space to park our car. On several occasions, our neighbors parked their car on gravel on our lot (management notified them that this was against their park policies). 



There are also cabins for rent here.




Below is the layout of the park.


Amenities: There is a large, heated swimming pool here. Near the pool is the laundry room with 10 washers and dryers, so very convenient. However, you pay for the machines with a credit card (quarters not accepted) and card reading errors are frequent and annoying! 




A small dog park is located next to bathrooms at the far end of the park.


There is no cable TV or wifi provided at this park. We ended up getting Spectrum for one month (a cost of $127 for basic cable and high speed internet), plus an appointment for installation. We had to pick up and return the cable device and modem at the Spectrum store where there is always a long wait. The bonus for us was that we terminated our contract in less than 30 days, so we were informed that we will get a full refund. 

Cost: $655 plus electric for the month

Management: This is a well run and busy RV park. The office is open 8 am to 8 pm most nights and receiving mail here is a breeze. The first night we arrived, however, we had electrical issues and had contacted a mobile RV service company. The next day it was determined that we were not getting power from the utility pole at our site. When I spoke with the office about a refund for the day (as we paid for full hook ups), we were informed that they NEVER provide a refund. Also, it was their stance that it was not their “fault” that the 50-amp service was not working at our site. Obviously, I disagreed, but did not push the issue as we had another month planned here. 

General Comments:  Overall, this is a good place to stay primarily due to the location. And we met some nice people here, too. But, the next time we are in San Antonio, I will likely look for another park.
