Why Goose Is Hard to Book
Goose Island State Park is one of Texas's most popular state parks. Reservations open 5 months in advance and popular weekends sell out within minutes. Cancellations happen constantly — people's plans change — but they go fast.
What Makes It Worth the Effort
- ✓The Big Tree — 1,000+ year-old live oak
- ✓Adjacent to Aransas NWR (whooping cranes)
- ✓Bayfront campsites on the water
Booking Tips
- Visit the Big Tree — it survived Hurricane Harvey and is still standing
- Take a whooping crane boat tour from Rockport (November-March)
Site Types Available
Tent Only, Water + Electric, Screened Shelter
When to Go
November through March for whooping cranes and winter Texans. Spring and fall are also popular. Summer is hot and buggy.
