Ocean Grove RV Resort

 Our stay here at Ocean Grove RV Resort is winding down but before we leave I want to take you around the park in case any of the readers are thinking about visiting the area. The park is located 7 miles south of St. Augustine on highway A1A about 400 yds. from the beach. There is a shopping center less than a mile away with a Publix grocery store. A Winn Dixie grocery store is even closer to the park. There are several restaurants within walking distance with our favorite, Salt Water Cowboy's" a very short drive south of us. More on Salt Water Cowboy's later....
  
   The park has 198 full hook up sites, many of them pull through patio sites. There are plenty of live oak trees however they are well trimmed and posed no problem maneuvering our 36' fifth wheel through. Even though our site was well shaded, we had no issue setting up or satellite dish. The sites are plenty wide enough for any type of rig. Cable TV is available but at $38 extra for the month, we opted to stay with our satellite only. A nice bonus is free Wi-Fi that is very fast and reliable. They have an on site propane station which was heavily used by everyone in the park due to some unseasonably cool, rainy weather. Other notable amenities are a boat and fishing dock directly on the Intracoastal Waterway and a well equipped fitness center. All in all, I would highly recommend this park to anyone visiting St. Augustine.

Time to change gears....we had dinner today at "Salt Water Cowboys", a restaurant about a mile from the RV park, on the Intracoastal Waterway. The food was great and we highly recommend this place. It has a great atmosphere along with decorations that reminded us of backwater, rural Florida cracker land.

 

 

 

 

 

Excellent food! I had the combination platter with fish, scallops, shrimp, and crab. Barbara had baby back ribs and shrimp.
