    This is an outstanding museum staffed by friendly people who are very proud of the work that went into this facility. My wife and I really enjoyed our visit. The exhibits and displays were really interesting and tastefully done, with just enough information presented to where you don’t feel overwhelmed. Once again, the personnel were fantastic, offering assistance but not to the point of interfering with the visit.

    New vegetation is slowly coming back from horrendous 2011 Bastrop County Complex Fire, Texas' worst-ever wildfire. The cabins, nestled in loblolly pines, are still there. Lots of trails to hike. Park Road 1C connects Bastrop and Buescher State Park and is nice 20-minute scenic drive.

    I visited downtown Bastrop a few days ago and I had a great time. They have lots of restaurants and eaterys near the river to visit. Tons of shopping is also available for folks who want to buy souvenirs. Review by Gabriel Culiat

    Stopped in for the first time tonight. We had a flight of drinks and an iced tea with their house made peach infusion. All were very good. That peach is dangerous! Tastes like liquid pie. Live music was fun. Will be back for sure.

    I’m not a huge fan of snakes and such BUT... when my kids make me go to these places it’s not that bad. It’s really cool to see all of the different species. This place was fun for all ages.

    We LOVED our quick trip to Fisherman's Park! From the picnic, BBQ, and volleyball to the sandy beach on the river, we will definitely be back!

    We visited with our 11 and 13 y/o granddaughters who are budding artists. They went over every inch of the displays. Much of the art was for sale - I was very tempted by several. It doesn't take long to tour and is worth a stop.

    Lake Bastrop North Shore Park is a clean, friendly park. Great for singles, couples, or families. Picnicking, water activities, hiking and more--lots to do!

    When you walk inside they have a small gift shop with various toys and horror themed knick knacks. You pay for the bbq at the cashier and can either take it out or eat at the back for outdoor seating. They have specials on Saturdays and a small but great selection of bbq. This is a great iconic stop if you’re passing by or in the area.

    This place is great... also a very creative way to utilize the water. Also, the military discount is very generous.

    Years back, a fire torched much of Bastrop State Park, but pretty much across the road is the LCRA South Shore Park, untouched by the destruction.
    We found the LCRA facility to be everything we desired.
    Camping, pulling a small travel trailer out of MICHIGAN, we acquired a secluded campsite right on the lakeshore.
    Staff was friendly, sites large, bath houses were modern and kept clean.
    There are trails, kayak rentals, cabins, and picnic shelters.
    A terrific 4-day stop over for us.

    If you enjoy historic theater's than a visit to the Bastrop Opera House is a must. This beautiful building still retains it's original character. While there is still quite a bit of restoration work to be done, you really get a good feel for what it was like to come see a show in this space in the late 1800's. The performances are good and the season is varied so you can surely find a show you'd like to see.
