    Keep in mind on Mondays the spring fed pool is only one open and if u bring a pet have the vaccination papers to get into pool area. There were 2 slides down so our 8 yr old did the Kidda slide and enjoyed it. Train ride was nice. Area for paddle boats full of grass so we backed out on that one. Overall a nice experience

    I searched and searched and googled to try to find prices for drinks here for adults. Of course, if you wanted a margarita or a beer, here are some pictures of prices in case you're interested prior to coming

    This is in the Hill Country and was settled by German migrants in the mid-1800s. Many of the traditions persist, including the great food. The countryside is beautiful, and the people are friendly. Well worth a visit.

    Bigger than I thought, it was clean, friendly staff. My 3 year old and I really enjoyed all the animals. Definitely wish the wolves had a large pool or something to cool them down in this Texas heat. But all around great day and experience. We will be going back.

    Nice place to stop for views and a dip in the river. It was crowded when we went on the weekend (in July), but we went back on a Tuesday afternoon and it was much nicer. Over the weekend many people were picnicking and grilling.

    Such a fun place! They make it easy to buy your tickets on the app or when you pull up to the ticket booth. The 50's diner was cute and the food looked good! There are a few options to listen to the movie, 1. Through your car radio or 2. Through a portable FM radio. The ticket booth guy told us that our car battery would more then likely dies, but they can give a jump. We weren't a fan of that option, so he also mentioned that you can rent a FM radio at the diner for $10 and a $20 refundable deposit once the radio is returned after the movie. We went with that option and it was perfect! Definitely a must do on your trip! Bonus...we saw sooo many stars too, truly amazing.

    Age range: toddler - 1st grade
    * more play focused than education focused
    We go to children's museums all over the country and I feel this is one of the nicer ones we have been to. It's not huge, but it has a good variety of indoor exhibits such as hospital, doctor's office, and ambulance that lights up. It has an outer space section with a space walk that might be a little intense for kids with sensory processing issues. It's got bright red lights down the hall that lead to a room of stars where it is pitch black. You must feel your way out. But it was a lot of fun! It has several forced air exhibits. There's a bank and grocery store. There's a western section, forest/camping section with a bat cave, and indoor playhouse, and a toddler section. The outdoor section features lots of water table play and musical instruments along with a very nice playground, all covered with fans.
    In addition the gift shop was really nice stuff like Melissa and Doug and STEM, not just garbage.

    Loved the fact you can pre book tubes!! Excellent spot to get in! Longer float. Overall, all the staff were nice. Shout out to the bus driver though, he was so much fun!!! We didn’t catch his name, but we sent him a tip on Venmo & his Venmo account name was Albert Flores, this guy alone gets 5 stars!!!!!!!!! So much fun!! Thanks Albert!!

    There is a lot of history in a small space. The people are very friendly and helpful! Interesting from the time they purchased this land, to all the great displays of businesses.

    Parking is expensive during the Summer. but it is the most beautiful park, with crystal clear spring water. Best to go early or late in the day to miss the crowds. Or in the late fall.

    Nice little station. Nice staff. Visit an actual dining car and caboose. Nice exhibit of trains. How appropriate an actual train goes by the station.
