If you live in Southeast Texas, you know that April isn't just about bluebonnets—it’s about the return of major outdoor festivals. From the legendary country vibes of Chilifest 2026 in Snook (April 10-11) to the soulful bluegrass at the Old Settler’s Music Festival (April 17-19), the next few weeks are the busiest time of year for Texas campers and boaters.
At I-10 Sealy Columbus Boat & RV Self Storage, we see our tenants gearing up for these massive events every day. Whether you're heading to a music fest or taking the boat out for the
Events like Chilifest attract over 35,000 fans.
Many April festivals involve "primitive" or "dry" camping (no hookups). This means your RV's systems need to be in top shape before you leave our gates:
Check Your Generator: If you’re camping at Camp Ben McCulloch for Old Settler’s, you’ll need that generator for power. Test it at our facility where you have the space to run it safely.
Fill the Fresh Water: Don't wait until you get to the festival grounds. Ensure your tanks are sanitized and filled before you hit the road.
Solar Panel Clean-up: If you rely on solar for dry camping, give your panels a quick wipe-down to ensure maximum charging during those sunny April days.
While some are heading to music festivals, others are taking advantage of the rising water levels at Lake Somerville. If you’re bringing your boat out for a weekend of fishing, our covered storage units ensure that your upholstery isn't ruined by a sudden April "Spring shower" or hail storm while you're waiting for your next trip.
After a weekend of mud, music, and memories, your driveway shouldn't be the place your rig sits. Bring it back to I-10 Sealy Columbus. Our wide aisles make it easy to back in even after a long weekend of driving, and our 24/7 surveillance means you can sleep soundly knowing your investment is secure until the next big event.
Don’t let HOA fines or cramped driveways ruin your festival season. Store with the best in Sealy and Columbus.
