Hamilton Pool Preserve
This place was a mermaid dream! We had an easy hike down to the pool which is a perfect place for a picnic and swim. One of the most beautiful places we have (decidedly) ever seen.
Barton Springs Pool
Barton Springs lives up to its hype. Tons of space to play and full of fun people and animals. We loved floating and people watching. Local musicians jamming out on the shores and art students building towers of river rock. We packed a lunch but, the concession stands were full of yummy (and healthy items) so we indulged in some unique ice pops.
County Line BBQ
We found this place by accident and it was a happy discovery! The food was excellent but, we would return for the atmosphere. County Line boasts a history of great BBQ displayed on their walls along with quirky hill country memorabilia. The outdoor seating overlooks the river packed full with turtles and fish eager to be fed left over homemade bread.
I'm so glad we took this lil getaway! Austin has a plethora of fun and unique ways to enjoy the beauty of nature. I can't wait to go back next summer for am extended stay. 💞
