The most beautiful & accessible swimming hole in Wimberley. You need reservations to swim. You can usually get weekday passes last minute, but weekends book up weeks out. If you don’t have a reservation to swim, you can still explore the park. Lots of nice paved trails for running or bike riding! Nice basketball courts & soccer fields open to the public too.

Food

One of the best new additions to downtown Wimberley. Beautiful views of the creek downtown with an incredible menu of Mexican-inspired food and drinks. The design is top notch - feels more like an Austin restaurant dropped into the Hill Country.

Fantastic restaurant for dinner and drinks. Menu and cocktails are familiar American food but with a foodie spin. Everything is a little bit unique and fun to explore. Indoor & outdoor seating great for groups. Playground for kids. Live music on weekend evenings. Little bit pricier than other options but we’ll worth it for an incredible meal.

Drinks

Just down the road from our house, you'll find a casual outdoor bar with the BEST Hill Country views. There's tons of room to spread out, so you can grab wine or beer and find a set of Adirondack chairs set on the cliff side with a view.

Wineries

It's a 45 minute drive over to Stonewall, but this is our favorite winery outside of Fredericksburg. Beautiful views + incredible red wines! Plus, the drive is gorgeous and you'll get to see other small towns like Johnson City and Hye along the way.

Small vineyard just a few miles from the house. Wonderful dry whites and reds. Better to sit inside during the hot summer, but beautiful vineyard views from their terrace in the fall. Tastings with Eileen are fabulous. She’s a level one sommelier and fabulous! We really love the Barrel Aged Roussanne.
