What a nice little gem to find in Bullard, Texas!
Took my visiting brothers in law (both veterans) there on a Wednesday afternoon. The museum takes you on a time line from the Revolutionary War through the recent wars on terrorism. The artifacts and history were well presented, interesting and educational. We spent 2 hours there and could have stayed another 30 minutes. The museum closes at 3 PM. We were all quite impressed.
Veterans receive complimentary admission.

Our first time at the Park and our Girls 5 and 6 yrs old loved it. We stayed for about 5 hours and our kids still weren't ready to leave. I really like the fact that it isn't a huge park and don't have to worry about our kids getting lost. The food is good and not pricey at all. After reading reviews I don't understand how kids can get bored so easily honestly. I do believe there isn't much to do for infants. RECOMMEND TAKING YOUR OWN LOCKS (LOCKERS DONT HAVE LOCKS) AND WATER SHOES FOR KIDS THE FLOOR IS A BIT ROUGH. DEF RECOMMEND

Sophisticated golf course surrounded by peaceful pine forest.

The clubhouse has some awesome food and the waitstaff are so friendly and pleasant to talk to. Price is pretty reasonable considering being of the golf course. Have had plenty meetings here. The staff are very accommodating and nice.

I absolutely love this place. I have very fond memories of going here when I was a youngster. Even though it has changed drastically, the scene is still as beautiful and breathtaking as I remember!! Great for picnics, pictures, visits and relaxing!

I sure many people like this place, but not for me. This is a lifestyle winery. Its mostly a real estate development business, with a side order of wine.

This place is a little difficult to find. Road accesses are paved, but looks like the receiving end of an artillery barrage. 4 wheel drive is not required, just drive slow (<40 mph). Site itself is in disrepair, over grown with grass. You will see where others have walked from the parking lot. Bug repellent is recommended to avoid ticks and fleas, long pants, no sandals. The parking lot is obviously used by young people for beer parties. Although there is a sign saying the site is monitored by CCTV, if it is, they are using it to enjoy the teens parties. Trash receptacle overloaded with beer cans. The monument itself is in good shape, the headstones date from the 1800's to 1999 (the newest I located). We forgot to take pictures but are not going back anytime soon to do so. It is a shame it is such a state, as the horrible last hours of the people there should be honored.

There are lots of nooks and crannies in this old home, which was constructed in several eras as the family living in it gained more wealth. The home tells the stories of two Tyler's native families, and many of their possessions are still in the home. The bedrooms and kitchen were my favorite rooms to visit. Of course, local legend (and even some of the guides) say the home is still inhabited by at least one of its former residents. Do a search online for "Haunted Goodman Museum" by Stephanie Frazier to see my article with pics, for more details.

We had a personal tour for just our family by the homeowner. He was full of history of the area and knowledge of the house. He is only the third family to have lived there and has done plenty of research. The tour took about an hour, most of which was spent outside.
They do request a donation of $8 per adult and $6 per child, cash or check only.
