When it comes to finding affordable, comfortable housing in Central Texas, more professionals are discovering that long-term RV living offers unmatched value and flexibility. At Elgin RV Park – Colinas, we’ve welcomed hundreds of extended-stay residents who’ve found their perfect home base for work, travel, and life in the Austin metro area. Here are real stories from our long-term residents who’ve made Colinas their home.
“I moved to Colinas six months ago when I started my project management role with Samsung in Taylor. Initially, I was looking at expensive Austin apartments, but the commute and cost didn’t make sense. At $500 per month during winter rates, I’m saving over $1,200 monthly compared to Austin rent, and my 15-minute commute to the Samsung facility is unbeatable.”
Sarah’s 32-foot travel trailer sits on one of our generously spaced sites with full hookups including 50-amp power, water, and sewer connections. “The free WiFi is fast enough for video calls, and having free laundry on-site saves me time and money. The quiet atmosphere helps me decompress after long project days.”
Carlos and Maria Martinez relocated from California when Carlos accepted a position at Tesla’s Austin Gigafactory. “We sold our expensive California home and bought a beautiful fifth wheel. Living at Colinas for $550 monthly gives us financial freedom we never had before.”
Their two children, ages 8 and 12, attend Elgin schools and love the community atmosphere. “The kids have made friends with other RV families here. There’s something special about the RV community – neighbors actually know each other and help out. Our site has plenty of space for the kids to play safely.”
Our residents consistently report significant savings compared to traditional housing options. Here’s how Colinas stacks up against competitors and apartments:

“After 30 years in the military, I wanted simple, affordable living without the hassles of homeownership. Colinas gives me exactly that.” Mike, a retired Air Force veteran, has called Colinas home for over two years.
“The on-site manager responds quickly to any issues – not that there are many. The park is well-maintained, quiet during designated hours, and the gated entry gives me peace of mind. At my age, having someone else handle maintenance while I enjoy my retirement is priceless.”
Mike particularly appreciates the pet-friendly policy that allows his two rescue dogs to enjoy the spacious sites. “No breed restrictions, and plenty of room for the dogs to exercise. Try finding that in an apartment complex.”
“Working remotely opened up housing possibilities I never considered before. Why pay $2,000 for a cramped Austin apartment when I can live in my beautiful motorhome at Colinas for a fraction of the cost?”
Jennifer, a software developer, chose Colinas for its reliable internet and professional atmosphere. “The WiFi handles my video conferences perfectly, and I’ve set up a proper office space in my RV. When I need a change of scenery, I can easily relocate for a few weeks while keeping Colinas as my home base.”
