We camped here spontaneously one weekend in February. The good: the trails are lovely! There are…read moremany miles and different terrains to explore. I love the pine trees and views from some of the trails. The campground is lovely as well. Very clean. Spaces are large. People are respectful. But... A big con is the traffic noise at night! We stayed in the Copperas Creek Camping Area, which is quite close to the road, so we expected some noise. But it was intense both noise. A loud, long crash woke me up in the middle of the night, with a second crash crashing into the debris from the first one. That whole incident kept me up for 2 hours. I don't know if the other campgrounds in the park are any better. The park is nestled in a populated area so I doubt it. But the trails and area are beautiful!! So I would definitely recommend for hiking!! Not so much tent camping... (maybe it's better in an RV?).

This is a lovely park!

I came out here with a group- most of ours first time. We enjoyed the smell of the tall pines, some bridges and steps and switchbacks. The overviews left some to be desired as they overlooked the highway. Overall the park is clean and beautiful and we didn't see many people which made it better! I can't wait to go back and tackle the 8mi trail!

Bastrop is a wonderfully historic town that really embraces its past while feeling incredibly…read morewelcoming today. It actually holds the title of the "Most Historic Small Town in Texas," and you can feel that history as you walk through the beautiful downtown square. The historic brick storefronts and 19th-century architecture line the streets, making it a perfect spot for an afternoon stroll. I always love exploring the local businesses downtown, from the unique artisan shops to great comfort food spots like Neighbors Kitchen & Yard. It's the perfect place to experience true Texas hospitality while supporting a vibrant local community.

Very quaint historical town. Offering different types of restaurants, bars and shops.read more

Building bridges for small business is an understatement, they are helping to build interstates! The networking events are an awesome way to meet and connect with other business owners in the area.

There were several pretty ducks strolling on the green grass. It rained yesterday so everything was green and bright. It seemed like a safe place to walk and run. There were several others walking their dogs and some kiddos riding bikes. We walked along the river and saw the backside of a great looking bar/joint called Neighbors. There was nobody there seeing it was only about 10 am but it looks like a neat place.

Totally recommend if you are looking for something "cool" to do this summer. PS adults are allowed to get wet too.

My love for this musical brought me to Bastrop (and I'm glad it did!) I loved how they performed Fiddler on the Roof! It was phenomenal!!! It matched exactly from the 1971 movie. I have this movie on VHS and watch it every month because I love it so much!! Every scene was as if I was watching the movie. Lisa Holcomb is an amazing director and trained the performers well. If you're a history buff or admire antiques, you'll love the Bastrop Opera House built in 1889. The parking can be limited in Downtown and in historic district, so I took an Uber from the Airbnb I stayed at. During intermission, I went to check out the ladies restroom and it was severely cramped. It reminded me of an old church restroom: three stalls with doors so close to the toilet. Whether you sit or squat, your knees are at the door. A primary sink and a line out the door. So, there's some discomfort there! I want to mention that the seating inside the opera house is comfortable, but the chairs are close together. I reserved seat E1 which is the last seat of the row, so each time someone from the middle needed to leave. I had to get up to let them out. That was a bit much. Seats sell out quickly, but if you travel solo you can find something last minute. Anyways, I'll be attending the upcoming show of Rent (another one of my favorite musical) here. I wanted to see Dial M for Murder by Alfred Hitchcock, but I'll have to catch it another time.
