Grand Design RV Getaway – #8, Rollover Bay & Ocean

Beach Time RV Park — Site #8 | Fully Furnished RV Rental | Rollover Bay, Gilchrist, TX

About This Rental

Welcome to Beach Time RV Park in Gilchrist, TX — a small, friendly park with a spot ready for you! Site #8 features a fully furnished Grand Design Transcend, set up and ready to go on a private gravel pad right on Rollover Bay along the Bolivar Peninsula. Skip the towing and setup — just bring your bags and settle in.

Inside you'll find everything for a comfortable stay: cozy sleeping for up to 5 guests, a full kitchen, A/C to beat the coastal heat, and a private outdoor space to watch the sun go down over the water. This location also offers 30 Amp and 50 Amp electrical service, a laid-back family-friendly vibe, and pet-friendly accommodations.

Set your home base here for great fishing, kayaking, and birdwatching, all just outside your door. Wet a line off the shoreline, paddle out into the bay, or take a short drive over to Crystal Beach and the Bolivar Ferry. And keep an eye out for the new Rollover Pass Pier going up nearby — a 1,000+ foot T-head pier with night fishing lights, rod holders, fish-cleaning stations, and a bait shop.
