    Finally made it out to Blue Lagoon in Huntsville, Texas. Vis was 10-15ft due to recent rain. 68° at…read morethe surface and 64° bottom temp at 25ft. They have an underwater rope course you can use to navigate from one side to the other. The waters color and clarity come from its origin. It was originally a Limestone Rock Quarry. Spring water has filled it up making this a good dive location. Another feature I found to be very cool for instructors is the large underwater decks. These are part of the course and make a great place to perform dive skills without disturbing the silt on the bottom. My dive site had an easy entry and exit. The depth ranges depending on the amount of rain throughout the year. This is a great place to teach new students, practice your skills, or train as a dive team. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Being this was my first time here they answered all of my questions.

    I have always been curious about this place. Today I finally got the chance to go. I am not a diver…read moreso my perspective is limited to swimming. 1. I kept thinking when I was there that the city of Huntsville or some wealthy person should buy this place and fix it up. It has so much potential. Right now it is "rustic". Roads unpaved, covered picnic areas falling apart. It's a shame. 2. The water itself is like lake water. It's ok but not as lovely as pictures seen online. I kept thinking...at least no alligators! The term BLUE lagoon is misleading. 3. I understand that this is primarily a scuba diving place. But the attitude in phone calls and the employees was like you were second class Citizen if you were a "swimmer". Finally, I was the only one there! I guess $30 is way too much for what you get here. I enjoyed my swim but I will not return is

    The ranch and hunt was above average. I have hunted ranches throughout the US and never had guides…read moreso determined to make the hunt successful. The guides were professional, organized, well prepared and picked us up and dropped us off on time. In addition, the cleaning and cleaning of the animals was done to perfection salvaging every square inch of meat. The food was was outstanding even the desert. Make sure you get Mike to make his world famous banana pudding. We are already penciled in for an even bigger package next year. Mark N. Thibodaux, LA

    Took my son out to Moody Ranch for his 11th birthday as a surprise. Booked a guided bass fishing…read moreexperience. We both love to fish and this was by far the BEST fishing excursion/trip we have ever taken. We had an amazing day of fishing on the lake, getting 103 largemouth bass to the boat an we probably missed/lost another 50. All fish were great quality as well. Our guide and the owners of Moody Ranch are just outstanding people and very accommodating. This will be a trip with my son that I'll never forget and a birthday that he won't soon forget either! Do not hesitate for 1 second to book a bass fishing trip with Moody Ranch! You will be so glad you did and you will create memories to last a lifetime. This is a special place and I look forward to many future trips with family, friends, and clients. Thank you Moody Ranch for making our experience such a special one!

    (From February 2025)…read more When I made it here, it was right when it got dark and with the cold wind chill coming so I only walked around the pathway one time and that was it. While short and brisk, I imagined what the views would be like if it was warm and sunny outside. I pictured peoples reflections being seen in the lake and the bouncing of basketballs on the b-ball court while hearing the noises of kids in the playgrounds. Then I came to my senses and realized that the walk was over due to the path being shorter than I thought. Although short, it's a great way to escape and enjoy the sounds of nature. I hope to come back here when it's warmer and I'm back on assignment in College Station.

    Came here for the first time with my son. We came to exercise this morning and it was beautiful…read more The park overall is really small. We zig zagged through every walkway and came up just under a full mile so if you're looking at running a mile or more and don't like to backtrack, then this isn't the park for you or you can run outside of the park. It f you do, the sidewalk doesn't connect all the way around so you'll end running on the grass. The way the trees and bushes are, it's a relaxing and pleasant stroll through the mini woods. There's a large pond where I think fishing is allowed since I didn't see a sign other than no swimming. This park comes with a nice little clean playground for the kiddies and a full size basketball court to include 2 additional mini full size courts. There was even a basketball so my son and I shot some hoops for a little bit. I did see some picnic tables with bbq grills and a pavilion with more tables/chairs. If you're looking for a hike or a trail, I wouldn't recommend only because it's too easy. The walkway is kind of narrow so please be careful of others if you're running. The parking lot is a good size, but I heard it's full during game day.

    Love that they have a toddler area and big kid play area. Although the big kid area is easy for…read moretoddlers to navigate. The playground looks new. Like they just replaced it. Definitely wear tennis shoes or closed toe shoes here. The trails are a good mixture of dirt and then some parts are cement. Nice fishing spot as well. Catch and release only. Be careful letting smaller kids near the pond. I have seen a kid slip and fall in. He was okay and got out, but after seeing that I keep an extra eye on my kids if we want to get close to the pond. They have a sand volleyball court. Lots of walking trails. Even behind the trees where a retention pond is. They have covered pavilions with picnic tables and bbq pits. Also love that the playground is covered and kids can play in the shade. That's a MUST for Texas parks!

    Super impressed by this park!…read more They've done a really great job with adding beautiful manmade waterfalls and such. The walking trail is very pleasant. FYI: the trail is paved and stroller accessible. On the way back, we took another trail which was dirt and had no issue taking the stroller on that as well. Nice playground for kids. There are bathrooms just past the playground. I initially thought they were closed because the gate had the lock still on it (in a locked position) but luckily, someone advised me that they were actually open. So, don't go by appearances and actually tug on the door! There are two relatively small parking lots that fill up quickly but there is also street parking available.
