- Megan FMcKinney, TX84 contributionsThe Heard’s Museum and Wilderness Sanctuary has it all: fossils, live animals, unique nature trails, and a cute little gift shop.
The museum has a wide variety of items and is fun for the whole family. My child didn’t want to leave!
The trails are absolutely gorgeous. Whether you like hiking in the woods, wetlands, or prairie, each brings with it beauty and serenity. I bought a membership because I just keep coming back again and again.Written April 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

BEAUTIFULLY restored house, gardens, surronding grounds. The stain glass windows are so incredible. Many beautiful artworks, period clothing, and all original furnishings. Such an interesting story about the Heard-Craig family. I enjoy touring old homes, but this tour was one of the best.Written April 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Megan FMcKinney, TX84 contributionsI’ve hiked the trails in Erwin multiple times. It’s where I go when I need a break from the hustle and bustle. On the south loop, a lot of the trails are shaded, which is great during the Texas heat. I love the elevation changes, the plant and wildlife, and the friendliness of other hikers/bikers.Written April 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- scott rSilver Spring, MD769 contributionsI went for the Saturday historic house tour, but appreciate the community feel of the farmer's market - I would probably make this a semi-regular stop if I lived in the area / has a small town feel. The tour itself is fine, but not really in depth. Our guide was enthusiastic but somewhat limited beyond what she'd read, declarations to the contrary. It's nice to see these places preserved and the upkeep must be expensive given what I'd imagine revenue is, so you really can't fault what I would imagine must be the volunteer staff. Good of the town to assist in saving this and adding some flavor to the community. On balance it's worth a stop, and even a drive out of your way for something to day Saturday a.m.Written June 20, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I have been to this place while viisting a friend and we went for a walk. The place has very well designated parking, barbeque shelters, club house and boating piers.
The walkways are very well done keeping all age groups in consideration. I saw many family and groups of friends visiting this place and having a good time.
Good place and you may visit this place if you have couple of spare hours while viisting this place.

It certainly has that quaint old world southern European feel with cobblestone streets and alleys, attractive landscaping, interesting walkways and unique architecture all situated on an attractive lake. There are fountains, a bell tower, 2 restaurants, a few shops and services and across the lake new upscale properties are being built. It is a nice little enclave built by someone with a vision. Worth a visit.Written May 3, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Jason JPlano, TX27 contributionsFinally made my way to Franconia and well worth wait — started with a flight and got a couple of pints after… great service, friendly owner and awesome selection of beers… looking forward when they open a taproom in downtown McKinney. 5 stars in my bookWritten September 17, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Getaway679072029041 contributionThis is a really nice museum. Though limited in size, it is full of interesting information and artifacts that help the visitor really get a feel for the breadth and depth of Collin County's history. If you go, be sure to borrow one of the iPads; using it, you learn additional, up-to-date details that are not shared via the more permanent displays. The staff on site was both engaging and knowledgeable - they really helped make my visit a great experience. If you are in the area, I highly recommend stopping by - you will not be disappointed.Written October 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
