Arroyo City Cabins

is about a 10-mile strip along the South bank of the Arroyo Colorado, as it winds its way to the Intercoastal Waterway and the Lower Laguna Madre. Dolphin, pelican, heron, turkey, deer and other wildlife are abundant. The Arroyo Colorado was a natural tributary running through the Rio Grande Valley of Texas out to the bay. During WWII, it was dredged by the Army Corp of Engineers to make a navigable waterway to transport supplies to the military base in Harlingen. Today, several major products are transported by barge to/from the Port of Harlingen.
