Snowbird RV Sites in Central Texas
Central Texas is the practical middle ground for snowbirds: warmer than the plains, cheaper than the Rio Grande Valley in season, and close enough to I-35 to keep moving whenever you want.
Quick Answer
Journey's RV Park offers monthly snowbird sites in Temple, TX from $500 plus sub-metered electric. Bell County winters average highs in the upper 50s to low 60s, with occasional hard freezes.
What winter is actually like here
December through February in Bell County means daytime highs usually in the upper 50s and 60s, cool nights, and a handful of freezes each season. It is not South Texas, but you will spend most of the winter outside without a heavy coat.
Plan for freeze protection: a heated water hose, skirting if you have it, and a plan for your holding tanks during a cold snap.
