Luckily the staff showed up early and in a jiffy the park was clean. The water is nice and there is lots of beach area to chill at.

These folks put their hearts and souls into conserving nature...& it's not free to do so. There's a visitor center, gift shop, and walking trails. Spring-fed marsh, wildflowers, wooded areas, tall-grass, and so on. You can sometimes spot an armadillo or two scurrying about (along with other critters). There's a Monarch Butterfly research field to check out too. They have learning center and auditorium too. Really beautiful way to spend a day in nature.

We had my sister's bridal shower here at The Gathering Hall and it was perfect! We had access to…read morethe kitchen, fridge, and there were quite a few plates and drink containers available for us as well as tables, chairs, and linens! It was in August and incredibly hot outside, but it was so nice inside and we had a great view of the farm in the back! Lots of room to fit 35 people comfortably and it would be even more beautiful with more space in cooler weather! Staff was INCREDIBLY sweet, informative, and helpful!!

I think I finally got my new hiking spot here in San Antonio/Boerne! Such a nice spot to get some…read morefresh air and exercise while being out in the outdoors! Everything is super maintained than most parks I've been before! I usually go with my MIL, my baby girl and our dogs to get them some exercise as well and try to do 1-2 miles each time we are here. Depending on what trails you walk/hike on, theres some with shade and some that you will hit up the blazing sun, but with fall upon it hasn't been horrible! Everyone who hikes here are really respectful with the trails/area which is such a pleasant thing as there's usually not a lot of people who do that now a days. Will of course be returning weekly to get our steps in and vitamin D!

This was actually a great place to come visit with the family on spring break! The weather was…read moreperfect, wasn't overcrowded, plenty of places to sit and enjoy fresh air. Loved they had a dog park and a playground you can take your kids to. There are places you can even go fishing if you want or just sit by the water to relax. Loved how there were plenty of signs around too talking about the animals and plants common there. Good information about the park too and didn't feel I would get lost either (good flat paths you can take). I barely saw any trash flying around either and could tell they keep this park well kept. I absolutely plan to come back here in the future when I have time. Definitely worth the visit!

I saw people fishing so if that's your thing, it seems to be allowed here. I was able to get some amazing shots of the wild life in this area. I especially loved the waterfall at the end of the pond. It's a small pond with free flowing water. I would love to come back to visit again. Across the street there is a restaurant if you get hungry. Watch out for all the duck poop in the grass though. We almost tracked some into our car.

Stopped by this park to kill time between appointments. Because of COVID i decided to find an area…read morethat was open. luckily there weren't much people here today. First Impression, the park is clean and well thought out. I gave it 4 stars because i felt there could be more seating. I love the painted trash cans! They were colorful, cute, creative and really added a nice sense of community to the area. There was adequate signage reminded visitors to social distance. I would love to see this park running at normal capacity again. I'll be back soon, hopefully with both of my kids so they can enjoy the playground.

I did walk some of the easygoing trail and I felt brave with my friend to go to the level 4 and 2 minutes later looking up to where we heading we got discouraged and turned around and headed back to the wimpy trail hahaha!! For fit people this is a great place to hike!! I took a look at the class room very nice setting. We had the pleasure to meet David Goree. He is the person that teaches crafts to children's and has knowledge about history of the park. He was very helpful and attentive to us. Keeping in mind that is part of the parks amenities I recommend to find information about classes and activities for children's and take time to take your children's for a great experience. The reason that I held back and gave 4stars because of the no dogs rule!!

I got a reservation there for…read moreone of their buildings setup but wasn't able to get a return call to confirm it until 4 DAYS BEFORE THE PROPOSAL! At this time they told me "oh we can't actually do it for you cause we are a state park and we require a guard and we can't find anyone". So I am out of sorts and freaking out. I found somewhere far better and then the day came. I setup a wall of pictures at the location where I would propose a few hours later which I WAS TOLD WAS PERFECTLY OK by the lady on the phone. When I returned and walked around the corner I found... the picture wall have been removed completely!!! I found this out while streaming live. So, they screwed me twice and I am totally done with them. It was our special little place but now it's not. Don't support this place at all.
