Garey Park is a massive park in Georgetown that offers myriad outdoor activities. A playground, splash pad, dog park, horses, fishing ponds, hiking trails, river access, and more can be found at this gem of a park in the greater Austin area. We have only been to the Play Ranch and the hiking trails/river access […]

We recently made a stop at El Salido Park in Northwest Austin, part of the Anderson Mill Limited District. Each time we drive past this park on the way to swim lessons, the kids beg for me to take them to the swimming pool which has a whole kiddie splash area separate from the lap […]
The park at Lakeline Oaks (and also the nearby Anderson Mill Park) are facilities in the Williamson Travis County MUD #1, and I think that both of these parks are fantastic choices for picnic birthdays and playgroups. We’ll cover the Anderson Mill Park in another post, but the one at Lakeline Oaks is the newer […]
Anderson Mill West Park is one that I discovered a few years ago with my daughter’s playgroup, and it has remained one of our favorite parks in the Cedar Park and Northwest Austin area. The park is part of the Williamson-Travis Mud #1, and I think the district utility does a great job maintaining the […]
Olson Meadows Park is one of many parks along the Brushy Creek Trail in Cedar Park/Round Rock. This park’s playground is fantastic, and it is well maintained. We met friends here, and the children loved climbing up in the larger playscape which has a central point that looks like a large metal tree house. There […]
Champion Park has a little bit of everything for each member of the family. There’s a limited number of parking spaces, though we’ve never had any problems finding a place to park whether visiting this park mid-week or on weekends. I would imagine parking would be more of an issue on major holidays. There are […]
Creekside Park, along the Brushy Creek Trail, has basketball courts, tennis courts, a pool, a playground, and public restrooms. We love stopping by this little park! Two of my boys have taken tennis lessons here through the Brushy Creek Park District. The tennis courts are locked and are only available to members with keys. There […]
With the beloved Zilker Zephyr out of commission, we had to search for another option for a kiddie train ride. That’s when I remembered the Cedar Rock Railroad, so we decided to give it a shot on a Saturday afternoon. The Cedar Rock Railroad is located within Williamson County Regional Park. We arrived shortly at 4:05 […]
For an easy adventure that can be combined with a meal at Mandola’s or some pottery painting at Café Monet, stop by the playground and splash pad in Austin’s centrally-located Triangle. The playground in The Triangle is small but works well as an add-on to any Hyde Park outing with kids. There is free parking […]
After a recent Omelettry breakfast outing, we took the kids a few blocks over to Ramsey Park to burn off some energy. Ramsey Park is another City of Austin neighborhood park, complete with playground, multipurpose field, swimming pool, tennis courts, and a basketball court. This one comes with public restrooms, too! That’s isn’t true […]
