I love to come to the cemetery and look at all the beautiful flowers. Each year the wild flowers are beautiful. This cemetery is a beautiful place to relax and think back on your loved ones. I love to come here and simply walk around or sit by the pond. 10/10 would recommend.

San Gabriel Park is a beautiful, relaxing place to walk, jog, picnic, play with the kids, or just nap under the giant spreading Live Oak trees. There are tables, BBQ pits, playscapes and miles of walkways. It never seems too crowded - even on holidays. There is plenty of parking and you can even park on the side of the road that borders the park on the opposite side of the river.

We visited this park the day after Christmas and we were completely satisfied and happy. The staff at this park was friendly. We stayed there 5 days and the experience was great. I would recommend this place to all that love to camp and fish. It's the ideal place to bring the family for weekend getaway. Thanks
6. Inner Space Cavern

Inner Space Cavern was discovered in 1963 by the Texas Highway Department. During construction of Interstate 35, they were required to do regulation core testing, which required them to drill into the ground. As they did this, they inadvertently drilled into the cave 8 times out of the 20 samples they took. Once they lost those 8 drill bits, they knew they hit a cave. They searched all over the surrounding area but could not find any access into the cave. So, they drilled a 2 foot wide hole down through 33.5 feet of limestone bedrock. The hole became known as the Discovery Hole as it was the very first entrance into the cave (and the only one for several months!). As they explored, they have found over five miles of cave, making Inner Space Cavern the fourth largest cavern in Texas!

We did all three tours at Inner Space Caverns... the regular public Adventure Tour, the off the beaten path Hidden Passages Tour, and the Wild Cave Tour. The Adventure Tour was a fairly classic cavern tour, complete with silliness about funny rock formations and little educational value. It is the only one accessible to people unsteady on their feet. The Hidden Passages Tour was far, far better and very worth the extra cost. It was educational and interesting and very easy to walk through unless your unsteady on your feet - not a paved trail. You're walking on rock surface. Seeing the bats up close was the best part. I'd recommend doing this instead of the Adventure Tour. You need bring no special gear and no special clothing. The Wild Cave Tour is all about learning and doing the work of cave exploration. It's dirty. You're crawling through some very small spaces. It can be scary and claustrophobic at times but exhilarating and fun. It's not for the barrel chested or XXL sized person, but it's a blast for young folks and the adventure-loving and dirt-never-minding among us. If you do the Wild Cave Tour you can probably skip the other two because you'll have seen much of the same things anyway. The guides were great! The caves were warm and humid. A highly recommended cavern visit!

Had a blast. Went on a Friday evening. Was not crowded. Had a good swim, thrilled Cliff jumping, serenity standing under the water falls. Spent close to 3 hours. Worth visiting.

Went here for a 2 day stay in site #36 right on the lake. We had a beautiful view from our trailer over the lake. We set our chairs up right under the trees and had plenty of shade. Many of these sites are not big rig friendly. We saw several large fifth wheels scrapping tree tops. Many of the sites don't go very far back either. While our site was sloped it was level from side to side. The picknic table are all under covered structures and while they are old they seem to be in good shape. We enjoyed this COE campground especially when using our senior pass getting a $13 per day rate.
