    I can't say if I know this is a common thing at airports across the country, but if you have a kid…read morewho loves planes, this place is awesome. Luckily the directions are easy to follow, because this spot is a bit out of the way. That being said, you get full access to planes landing and taking off. My one recommendation is to try and come at a "busy" time. You can see a rough idea of arrivals and departures online to plan your trip. For the 20 mins or so that we were there on a holiday Monday morning, we got 2 take offs and 2 landings. This was plenty for our two year old, but probably not enough for a 3 or 4+ kid who loves planes. Either way, it's a great option to take kids (and adults).

    I'll tell you the easiest way to find this place. It's located behind the Flight Services building…read morelocated at the end of Gold Course Rd. If you're leaving the airport, make a right onto Hwy71. You'll see a paved walking trail on the right. Golf Course Rd is also on the right. I thought I was driving into a restricted area at first, but then I eventually ended up seeing some old signs pointing you in the direction of the Family Viewing area. You'll see an abandoned golf course on the left behind a fence; keep going until you see Flight Services - it's right behind it. My little boy is OBSESSED with airplanes, so I was so happy to find this place on yelp by accident. The unfortunate thing about the previous review, however, is that the address listed is incorrect. Do NOT use the Presidential address - you'll just end up circling the airport like I did lol. I've submitted the changed pin drop to Yelp but I don't see it updated yet. Anyways... place was very nice and secluded. And you don't have to worry much about the runway because it's fenced. I'm giving 4 stars only because there aren't any bathroom facilities at all. And no shade. It's nice there are picnic tables to have lunch at though.

    Live Oak Brewing Company is one of Austin's oldest breweries, best known for traditional German and…read moreCzech style lagers, especially its hefeweizen, pilsner, and seasonal lagers using old world brewing techniques. Founded in 1997 by Chip McElroy, Live Oak was built with a simple idea "make beer for people who actually like the taste of beer." In 2015, Live Oak moved to their current location on a beautiful property along the Colorado River, opening a taproom and biergarten. One its unique features...it's off the beaten path of other breweries. Live Oak Brewing is north of the airport and backs to the Fast Park remote airport parking lot. At first glance it looks like it's a convergence of a fire station and deserted manufacturing plant. The grounds are impeccable...tall statuesque trees, lush green vegetation and an extensive outside biergarten. It feels like you are in a nature bubble. Interestingly, Live Oak Brewing has its own on site 18 hole disc golf course (different from traditional golf) located directly on the brewery's property. Live Oak Brewing's interior has the feel of a German Hofbräu...homey, spacious, and welcoming, with long communal tables that encourage conversation and human interaction. You can see directly into the brewing space, with large tanks and equipment. Also, board games are available if you choose to play. Live Oak is family friendly and dog friendly. In fact, Groot, the owner's dog, freely roams through the brewery drinking area. While I only had sips of beer (not a big beer drinker), my friends enjoyed their beers. Live Oak Brewery Company is a super fun place to hang out.

    Great brewery! Different location close to the airport but handy if you have a long connection :)…read moreIt's really nice outdoors with big trees and even a disc golf course. My baby loved sitting in the shade and staring at all the trees! Beers are German themed and they have a few Athletic NA beers too. We've been a few times and always enjoy it :)

Joan Marie did us an immense favor, too, by allowing us to start our ride a couple hours early in order to avoid an incoming thunderstorm. I'm sure she saved our weekend! And a final kudos for an excellent BBQ joint recommendation; we went straight there for lunch after our ride and got a "full" Lockhart experience! Strongly recommend Maverick for an excellent equestrian experience!

Our ride was scheduled to start at 4:00, but it got delayed with no explanation and we did not start until after 5:30. The sun had set by that time because of winter and we couldn't see any of the views. Also, we didn't do a true trail ride, they took us to the city park and we rode around there at night, it was absolutely underwhelming for what we paid. Lastly, there was this little girl who is the daughter of one of the instructors. At first she was cute and sassy, then it just got old. She spoke to the adults like she was one, telling them to "move" out of her way.

Major construction projects are always a hassle and headache BUT Athena Pools removed all those worries. I love my pool and so do my kids. Jeff and Nate are true professionals in their craft!

    Jeff is an exceptional pool builder. He spent serveral weeks with us going back and forth to…read moreachieve the optimal design for our desires. He managed to maximize our space (odd shaped back yard) giving us what we wanted: A large pool with a substantial play area and a long lap lane for exercise purposes. Most importantly, he made sure that we had solid engineering construction for our pool size (about 33K gallons, ~170 linear feet), strongly recommending a double mat rebar construction with 12 inch walls. Nobody else even mentioned that. When I asked other pool builders, I was told "not to worry about it". Well, I'd rather spend the extra money up front than dealing with a cracked pool shell later. He even commissioned an engineering survey to confirm before breaking ground. The equipment is top notch. Pool pump and heater are working beautifully giving us the clearest water we've ever seen in a pool while maintaining the temp at 80 degrees when needed. We were guided expertly through the materials process and features (plastering, tile, travertine, water features, autofill) to achieve the end result we wanted. He also recommended a great pool maintenance company that takes care of all our ongoing needs. He was responsive throughout and supervised the pool building from start to finish. He made sure everything was done to our satisfaction down to the smallest detail.

The space the owner…read more(Carey) has created is wonderful for playing before/after class and connecting with the other families. My son does several paid activity classes during the week (music, gym, dance, etc.) - this is by far the best value for your money. You'll get music, teachers who have studied the curriculum and Montessori education, movement, language development, and a beautiful space for play and community after class. My son started at 11 months and I wish we started earlier! For weeks he just sat in our laps and listened most of the class. He seemed like he wasn't super excited but he was actually just slowly absorbing everything! It's now been four months and he gets so excited every time he hears music he starts dancing and smiling! We listen to all the songs in the car and someties at home and he's started singing along to several words from different songs. He even remembers which words/sounds are coming next - it's so adorable to hear him in the back of the car singing! Heartsong has been great for language development too - an unexpected plus! My son started saying words with difficult sounds (e.g., "car") that we hadn't heard as a babble sound or really used often and we figured out it's because the "ca"/"ka" sound is used in several songs we're singing this semester. Neat! I love that Heartsong follows the Music Together curriculum which means you do the same set of about 25 songs over the 10-week "semester" and then move to a different set. This allows time for the kids to get used to the sound of a song over the semester. The songs have been developed to help with language development (lots of different sounds), music development, and even self-regulation (slower/faster). I love that the teachers offer insights on why certain things they do help with development. The in-class experience will vary by teacher. Keep that in mind if you decide to do demo classes first.
