Little pier access to jump off and also walk in spots to the water. Make sure to bring your own chairs / blankets since there aren't picnic tables here.

I really love this spot. I've been twice. Once when I moved to Austin back in 2017 and recently in…read more2025. The first time was empty, quiet, the shack was still there on the water and kids were jumping off of it in the water. The second time was busier, no shack, tons of people and a freaking DJ blasting music. lol the music was not bad but like what the heck. It's like that meme, I go to nature for relaxing and I have to listen to their shitty music. I'm honestly surprised the city of Austin allows for speakers and loud music at this spot. But anyways, I had a nice time. Recommend going on a weekday, not weekend!! Bring your floats and water shoes

It's a cute little neighborhood park in Steiner ranch. There's plenty of space for picnics with…read morebbqs, benches and tables. Or you might use the lawn if you don't mind bringing a blanket. The access to water is not swimming friendly, it's more suitable for fishing or kayaking. We did the first - caught a sunfish and a catfish.

Pictures don't do this place justice!…read more On this beautiful Saturday, I was seeking adventure! This tour is such an amazing deal. My tour guide Eryn was amazing and so funny. Caves are so interesting and there is so much to learn about them . Longhorn Cavern offer 3 different tour options. The cavern walking tour is just like a casual walking tour. The black light tour is where you wear hard hats and walk with a light. The Wild Cave tour is for the extreme explorers who are okay with tight spaces . I chose the cavern walking tour. I highly recommend shoes that have a tight grip. The gift shop has really good options for keepsakes. Also, if you get thirst drinks are available to purchase. I saw a section for pizza, but it was sold out. I had amazing time during my visit. The cave is beautiful and there is so much to see.

This isn't the best caverns I've visited within a Texas State Park, but it is pretty darn cool. The…read morebest caverns tour is at Kickapoo Caverns. I did a wild cave tour without the extra charges that Longhorn collects. At Longhorn, our guide, Johnson did an amazing job with our small group of six people for the 10:45 AM tour. My brother and I initially registered for the 11:00 AM tour and am glad that we were suggested another time. We passed by the 11:00 AM tour and they had 40+ people in their group. Johnson showed us cool geological formations. We saw dolomite, calcium bicarbonate, chert, limestone, geodes, stalagmites, stalactites, and quartz crystals. Johnson is somewhat funny; he had a bit of quirky and dry humor. I enjoyed the history of the caverns, but some of it I thought was interesting. It was really delightful to learn that in the 1800's, before the CCC got involved, the locals would dance and play music turning the cave into an auditorium of entertainment. Johnson said that if certain geological formations glows, it is growing. Very catchy phase for memory. I got to see a few bats hanging out. They were tricolor bats which are smallest bats. The cave is cool, but thankfully not slippery. I was wearing no grip support shoes, but I didn't fall or have the urge to fall. There are mats on the floor of the cave to prevent falls. Johnson gave us more time to look around and admire the geology. My brother and I weren't required to bring our own flashlights. Johnson had a flashlight, but forgot to grab the blacklights. What I find is strange is that this is a state park that you cannot renew your state park pass at. This park headquarters is very different than the rest considering that there's a third party company handing the cave tours, they sell ice-cees, popcorn, and the gift shop is very big and vast. The others don't have this. It is questionable to me. I was told that I needed to go to Inks Lake to renew my pass. The cave tours are very pricey. Kickapoo Caverns tour was very affordable at $10. You can use the park pass. You can't get your state park passport stamped at Longhorn Caverns either. It seems like Longhorn Caverns is more for profit and the history about the cavern could be overly exaggerated to attract customers. My opinion. It was hard to believe half of the things what Johnson was telling us. There's one portion of geological formation in the cave that is "dead" because in year 1919, the locals went exploring by touching the formation it "killed" it. I preferred Kickapoo Caverns and the Caverns of Sonora a lot more. Even Inner Space Caverns and Natural Bridge were very exciting to see. Longhorn is cool, but didn't give me that WOW-factor, but I still had a ton of fun on a Sunday morning.

This park is at the very end of Quinlan Park Rd. From 620 turn onto Quinlan Park Rd, regardless of…read morewhich way you are going on 620 you can only turn one way onto QP Rd (it dead ends into 620) turn that way drive all the way to the end. It dead ends at Lake Austin and the park. The park is about 5 acres and has picnic tables, grills and restrooms and the only boat ramp within several miles. There are no fees and fishing is allowed but not sure about swimming. I would not suggest swimming since the river is very narrow at this point . I have only actually used the park for the boat ramp. The park would get 4 stars the boat ramp a 2. The parking lot can only accommodate 10- 15 trucks with trailers attached. Today there was a party going on and the parking situation was insane - a lot of people blocked in and cars parked all along the boat ramp making the boat ramp almost impossible to navigate. The person in front of us side swiped a Jeep with his boat trailer. Even though the Jeep was not moving I think it was the Jeeps fault - what idiot parks there car on a boat ramp? It is hard enough to back a trailer down a ramp without having to navigating cars on all sides. If Mary Quinlan was not less than 5 minutes away we would drive the extra 20 minutes for the park at the 360 Boat Ramp.
