We’re located at 50864 Rio Grande Drive, Brownsville, Texas 78521 (yes, we’re on Google Maps!). Just 3.8 miles from the SpaceX launch tower, we’re as close as you can get outside of SpaceX property!
For early morning SpaceX launches, we recommend arriving at the viewing area prior to midnight to secure your position and ensure an optimal viewing experience, as HWY 4 (the road to SpaceX and Raptor Roost) is closed by the sheriff at midnight before the launch. Launches may occur in the early hours, so please plan your arrival accordingly.
For precise arrival times, you are welcome to contact us via call or text. Please note that refunds will not be available. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
You can arrive at Raptor Roost at 8am the day before the launch. We’re excited to have you join us for this incredible experience!
Yes, we provide port-a-potties for our guests, and they are cleaned daily to ensure your comfort and convenience.
While we provide free bottled water for our guests, please note that Raptor Roost is a ranch and not a year-round campground. You're responsible for your own food and water. However, there’s usually a snack truck that arrives the evening before the launch with food and drinks for purchase, and you’re welcome to cook out on one of our grills. Please plan accordingly.
No, as we are not a year-round campground we do not have the infrastructure to support RVs, EVs, nor do we offer any electrical outlets for guests. You are welcome to bring a generator to support your needs.
Friendly pets are welcome, but please keep in mind that rocket launches are extremely loud. If your pet is sensitive to sound, it’s best to leave them at home. Also, since we’re located next to a national park reserve, there’s a risk of your pet running away into the wild. We want to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, including your furry friends!
ALL SALES ARE FINAL, and we do NOT offer refunds under any circumstances, including but not limited to cancellations, delays, or personal scheduling conflicts. This policy is strictly enforced, and no exceptions will be made.
In the event that SpaceX aborts or reschedules a launch, your reservation WILL be honored for the new launch date. Please note that this is NOT a refund or a monetary credit; it is solely a transfer of your reservation to a future event. By purchasing, you acknowledge and agree that refunds will NOT be issued through PayPal or any other payment method. We are committed to providing you with an exceptional experience and appreciate your understanding of this policy.
If you need to arrive earlier than the day before the launch or stay later than the day of the launch, we offer extra days for just $30 each. We’re happy to accommodate your schedule and ensure you have a great experience!
Each guest, including children, must sign a standard release waiver. This is your way to understand any potential risks and the terms for your stay. We want to ensure everyone’s safety and enjoyment!
