Tips for a Comfortable Stay
Maximizing Your Comfort
Stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter with these tips. Regular RV maintenance and upkeep are essential for a smooth experience. Make sure your HVAC system is in good condition, and consider using fans or space heaters as needed. Before each season, check your HVAC systems to ensure proper functionality. Clean and replace filters, and inspect the system for any signs of wear or damage. If you are camping in extreme temperatures install insulation solutions like thermal curtains or other window coverings to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures.
Safety and Security
Keep your belongings secure by following a few basic safety procedures. Make sure to give your emergency contact information to the camp hosts and familiarize yourself with our safety procedures in the unlikely event of an emergency. Remember to secure your valuables inside your RV and out of sight of any windows. While our crime rate is very low in Bryan-College Station it is always best to make a habit of this. Finally, stay informed! Know the campground layout and emergency exits on your rig. Also, know the location of fire extinguishers and first aid kits.
Managing Utilities and Services
Manage your water, electricity, and internet usage efficiently. At Galloping Snail, water, sewer, electricity, and Wi-Fi are all included in the price. However, since Wi-Fi signal repeaters are not allowed, we highly suggest providing your own internet access through hotspots or Starlink for a dedicated high-speed line (as the park’s Wi-Fi is shared). Remember to monitor your usage to avoid unnecessary waste, and turn off lights and appliances when not in use. You can also optimize your rig with energy-efficient appliances and LED lighting to reduce your overall electrical consumption. You can also consider installing solar on your rig. Another tip: cook outside with a grill or make use of our camp kitchen to minimize indoor heat and energy use.
