I've been going to Comanche Peak for years. The people are above average and the plant is kept clean and is fairly easy to get around in. The contractor techs are treated pretty much the same as the house techs. While I have seen some personality clashes, those are typical where ever you go. So far, all the people I've worked with have been great and helpful.
Close lodging in Glen Rose and Granbury is adequate, but nothing to write home about. I've always stayed in Glen Rose (closest). The toilet flushes, plenty of hot water, the beds are okay, the TV is okay, and I don't spend a lot of time driving to and from work. And it's close enough to Fort Worth and Dallas for my days off (except on race day). That's all I need (laughing).

I've worked 33 different plants, 25 years in the biz and will say, 'Comanche Peak is tops in my book'. Amicible staff and management.
But, if you're into night-life, this local area is not for you. Lodging is getting better and growing lime mad in Granbury. The next outage begining February 07 will be a biggy. Steam generators & head replacement. Just finished a 19 day outage successfully.
The on-site food leaves MUCH to be desired. $9 for a meal & drink. Pack a lunch.

Go to shadyoakscottages.com for a place to stay. Better hurry, cause things fill up fast.

Hoof Prints Ranch in Stephenville.... Just found a comfy & clean place for my dog & I while working at CP.
It's a little bit of a drive (30-40 mins) but totally worth the low monthly rate, the scenery, the furnished cabin w/ kitchen, the horses in my backyard & the amazingly friendly manager Tandi.
Check it out... I'm looking fwd to this! ;D

If pulling an RV; Glen Rose Campground is a nice one with one caveat.

Does anyone have any recommendations for RV parks near the plant? I see that there are several to pick from, but was wondering if any stand out as better. Good WiFi, rates, etc...
Thanks
