Camp Margaritaville Crystal Beach, Texas

After hearing about Camp Margaritaville for years we finally visited the newest one in Crystal Beach, Texas. We got some boat drinks and went when it wasn’t so crowded, so there weren’t fins on the left nor fins on the right. We wish we had taken the weather with us as we were trying to reason with the hurricane season but that’s okay. It’s Five O’Clock somewhere and I’m glad I live in a trailer.

Benton Hot Springs

Benton Hot Springs is well off the beaten path, about 45 minutes from Bishop or Mammoth Lakes in California. The campground is located on Highway 120 near the junction of Highway 6. It's a little more than 300 miles northeast of Los Angeles, near the Nevada border, and about 365 miles east of San Francisco.
