There is a waterfalls and a river and there is a good sized picnic area w plenty of benches. There are two sets of horseshoe pits a half basketball court and two volleyball courts. There is a nice overview of the river and falls from the bridge. According to the chamber of commerce the pavilion and or the stone tables as well as the stairs were built during the Great Depression as one of the building projects at the time. There are stairs down to the river but just a warning the steps are a bit steep and no food or drink is allowed down past the stairs. Once you get down there it really is beautiful. According to the local I talked with there today they allow swimming there in the spring if the water level is high enough. The water level changes a lot. The park has been recently renovated according to a sign that I had trouble photographing. You can see in the older pics that the foliage was becoming more overgrown and it is indeed tidier now. When the water is low supposedly there are paintings on the rocks that are hundreds of years old. There is some differences of opinion about who did the paintings. This town has a lot of history and I did read a sign that this is George W Bush's hometown. The pavilion is very nice and historical. The park is on fourth street. The address on yelp takes you to a historical plaque. Just look at the map from there and turn right at fourth and your there. Follow the green.

Hands down the best party boat rental in Austin and on Lake Travis!…read more We booked a captained party boat on Lake Travis for a friend's bachelorette party, and it was perfect. Jeramy's Boat Rentals made everything super easy. we didn't have to worry about driving the boat, docking, or navigating the lake. Our captain (shoutout captain extremo! Aka Jake) was so nice and fun, and knew all the best coves to anchor and swim. The boat was clean, had an amazing sound system, and plenty of space for our group to relax and dance. We brought our drinks, made a playlist, and had the best day ever. BRING SUNSCREEN I've rented boats before, but this was perfect. Local feel. Jeramy's is the one to call when you need a boat! 10/10 recommend yall!

Our captain, Travis, was the best captain! He was a very fun time and did a great job of making sure we knew the boat rules and stayed safe while out on such a busy day. Would highly recommend Jeramy's boat rentals and I will definitely be booking through them again!

Holy cow. How does this place not have more reviews? My husband and I camp frequently, but were…read morenervous trying this park out without many reviews. So glad we went ahead and came! BEST shelter and park we have been to yet. We are extremely impressed! We rented shelter #5, it overlooks the lake and is across the way from the bathrooms, huge plus (I love camping, but don't hover well haha). The restrooms were so so, nothing special, but better than peeing behind a tree. Same goes for the showers, nothing special, but I loved that they were private, offered hot water, and had a little sink in the stall. The shelter itself was amazing! We have never been to a park where the shelters have tarps to cover the screened areas. You can tie them up or lock them down, perfect for privacy or blocking out the wind on cold nights. We also brought a lock to lock the shelter while we were away, but with multiple gates to get to the shelters we felt very safe. We came in late and left early, so we unfortunately did not get a chance to interact with the park host or other employees. But they were very friendly and helpful when I called asking for information. Overall I am very impressed, I don't think I can express that any more clearly. We will definitely be back and are already looking at our calendar! We need to get our canoe out here!

We came here in the early hours of the morning. Hiked a ways up the creek bed and saw tons of…read morewildlife. It was a nice hike... We heard it before we saw it. A rushing water sound made by the many waterfalls into the narrow canyon. I've traveled so many places, but I was awestruck at the beauty of this place. It looks exotic and out of place in Texas. Still, it was wonderful. It should be open to the public and protected at the same time. To get to it, walk the length of the Blanco River from either the north or the south. Really truly do not pass over private property. They will catch you and at the very least you will get a really expensive fine and Class C misdemeanor. They don't mess around. No one owns the river as the Blanco is known as a perennial River and these types of rivers cannot be privately owned. So, take the river from public property and walk up or down it to reach the Narrows. Don't litter as the place is pristine and really don't jump from the cliffs. We tried to be as respectable to the place as possible and left it how we found it. Please do the same when you find it.

Granger Lake is a lake near Taylor TX about an hour NE of Austin. Unlike Lake Travis it seems to…read moremaintain an almost constant level of 540 if I remember correctly and has 2 developed swim beaches and campgrounds that cost 4.00. That is all I know about the actual lake. This review is for the trails and bridges that I was there to photo. Comanche Bluff Trail is a hike and bike trail with 2 trailheads. The East trailhead is located in Taylor Park and costs 4.00 to access. Here you will find a well maintained trail and the Hoxie and Friendship Bridges and another wood bridge. The West trailhead is located off Country Rd 496 and has no fee and limited parking. This part of the trail is not well defined and we got lost and never found the primitive camping area. At this point it was starting to get hot and I was running out of water and would have been panicking if I had not had my faithful Canine with me. I gave her the "Lets Go Home" command and she found the trail back to our car Thank God! There is also horseback trail Willis Creek Park Equestrian Trail 4.00 to access and you provide proof of Coggins to gate attendant also 4.00 fee to access. And onto the main reason we were here - Bridges. I have a weird obsession with old bridges and Friendship Bridge did not let me down! FB was originally built at the turn of the century over Willis Creek. It was destroyed in a 1921 flood and reconstructed. In 1982 it was dismantled and moved to its current location in Taylor Park. FB is a Pratt Through-Truss Bridge a type of bridge patented in 1844 by father and son Caleb and Thomas Pratt. FB is one of only a few of these historic registered bridges and worth the trip.

But after 80ish we feel comfortable in determining what rooms are good and which are trash. We generally judge rooms on stories, logic in puzzles, fun, and production value (like how quality the props and ambiance is). We are local to CTX and feel that this is your best bet anywhere local by FAR. The owners are absolutely fantastic. The rooms are well put together and logical. We have done all of their rooms, and were pretty far up on the all time leader board for the enigma room they no longer have and now the asylum room. We have done all of their rooms and enjoyed them all immensely. The owner is so awesome, and definitely listens to customers. We did struggle with one puzzle in one of the rooms which was a dexterity issue mainly. The owner actually ended up changing the puzzle slightly. I won't give it away but what I'm saying is if we were being absolutely nit picky, we have only ever found one MINOR issue out of the hundreds of puzzles and it was adjusted. Contrast that with the room we just did at Waco Escape Rooms where the game master said the final puzzle has never been solved without a clue. No adjustment. Silly. Anyhow, I would come back for this room any time they get a new room. They have a holiday one that's replacing the cabin actually which we will be at the week it opens!

I've had an obligation to go to this park at least once a year for basically my entire life (that I…read moreknow of) for one of the many family reunions I attend. Over the course of this time, I've seen this park go from it's best days to it's worst. Thank goodness, during the last couple of years the City of Hillsboro has been diligently cleaning, updating and repairing this place into something they can be proud of again. So, currently this park has a walking path, a few playground areas, some basketball hoops, one pavilion, a concert area (with working xylophones), a couple of baseball "areas" (I can't say diamonds, because they're just grassy areas with a fence for guarding foul balls) and one soccer field. With all the work they've been doing for this park, it's not perfect. The (one and only) bathrooms are usually a mess, the pavilion is old (as in, been there since I was a kid with the only repair being a paint job), the only thing you'll be doing on that basketball court is shooting baskets and the exercise break areas on the walking path are either fine or in poor shape. Aside from those issues though, this is a great place to take the kids for bike riding or playing on the playground equipment. But if you're looking for a more sports orientated park, I would suggest going to Wallace Park instead (just north of this park on Hwy 81).

Perfect mix of wooooow, yaaaaay, and weeeeee. BOY am I glad we stopped here. We were headed…read moresomewhere else entirely and I told the kids, "Change of plans - let's check this place out!" I'll bet we ended up staying for at least two hours. The funky and eclectic outdoor art was an unexpected surprise for sure, and it was cool! Love it when cities and towns allow and promote stuff like this. The rocks and water were our main highlight, as we explored and rock-hopped all over the place. Had it been warmer, we would have taken off shoes and waded across to the strip of land in the middle of the river. But the water was freezing and we didn't. :) I've driven by the area when it's warmer / hotter out and it's clearly a popular area for kids of all ages, including teens. The dam and old metal truss bridge add a lot of character to the area. Just a really cool spot overall. There are also a couple of picnic tables and public restrooms (not just port-a-potties) that weren't as filthy as expected. Much to my amazement and satisfaction, I could take my little girl to the men's room and sit her on the toilet without... well, without bailing out completely and finding another toilet! (hahahaha) We'll definitely seek this spot out again.

There are tons of little stacks of rocks, art and other things. It's very calm and peaceful. If we had more time we would have gone up the way but we wanted to see more of the area this time. Parking was easy and next to lots of other businesses. The only downside was the gross bathroom. I wish they'd take more time to make sure they're clean. Otherwise I'll be back again to see more.
