How does a tow truck get to you in Lamar, TX?
The coastal and outer corridor splits two ways. Rockport and Fulton mean boat-trailer towing, RV traffic, and storm-recovery work. The US-77 and US-281 stretch toward Kingsville, Falfurrias, and Beeville means long-distance rural breakdowns far from any tow yard. The operator taking the job gives an arrival estimate on the phone and stages from the nearest hub.
The Lamar Peninsula juts northeast into Copano and Saint Charles bays from its connection to SH-35. FM 1781 crosses the Copano Bay causeway to reach the peninsula, and Park Road 13 runs northeast from that junction to the entrance of Goose Island State Park, about two miles in. There is no through-route. One way in, the same way out. A camper or boat trailer that breaks down on Park Road 13 is stranded on a two-lane park road with no alternate exit, the tow truck has to come from Rockport, back it out, and haul it the full 12 miles south to any service. Goose Island State Park has 101 campsites, 44 bayside with water and electric, 57 under live oaks with water and electric, and 25 walk-in tent sites. The park draws RVers year-round, peaking in spring during bird migration and fall during Whooping Crane season. Large Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels navigate Park Road 13 to reach bay-side sites. A motorhome slide that seizes, a blown tire, or a diesel that won't restart after a cold night creates a recovery problem on a narrow park road with no shoulder to speak of. The Big Tree is a Coastal Live Oak the Texas Forest Service designated as the State Champion in 1966. Its circumference is 35 feet, its crown spreads 90 feet, and it's thought to be over 1,000 years old. It survived Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Carla, and every storm before them. It is the most visited single natural landmark on the Lamar Peninsula, and the combination of the Big Tree, the state park boat ramp, and Aransas Bay access draws anglers, birders, and kayakers from across Texas who are unfamiliar with the peninsula's dead-end geography.
