COVID Considerations

The COVID-19 pandemic is still with us. The State of Texas and local municipalities routinely adjust reopening plans to make sure travelers, businesses, and local communities stay safe. Because the situation can and does change, you should always call ahead to any establishment you plan to visit.  

Ensuring guest and staff safety is our top priority. You can read more about our cleaning and disinfecting practices to keep you safe. 

Staying Safe 

Due to the recent resurgence of coronavirus cases, many local businesses and attractions have made significant changes to their operations and hours of availability. The governor of Texas has outlined the Minimum Recommended Health Protocols in a series of PDFs. The protocols include wearing a face covering while in public and keeping any group gatherings small. 

Safe Practices

Always remember to self-screen before deciding to travel. Stay home if you are feeling any of the common symptoms associated with COVID-19.

Wash your hands often. Wash or disinfect every time you enter a business or interact with an employee, visitor, or object. It’s a good idea to bring your own hand sanitizer, too.

Be sure to stay at least 6 feet away from others at all times. Most businesses have rearranged their high traffic areas to keep everyone socially distanced and safe.
