📍 178 Rio Cibolo Wy, Marion, TX
🛶 Kayaks and SUP available
⛺️ Creekside cabanas
🌳 Treehouse cabins
🔥 Firepits
🌴hammocks
🎱 a historic dance hall turned into an epic game room with foosball, air hockey, pool, poker tables, and more!
💦 pools and hot tubs
⛺️ glamping tents
We stayed here a couple of years ago and were blown away by how much we loved it! The cabins are super spacious and could easily sleep our family of 5. They have 2 outdoor spaces (one above and one below) plus a fire pit for s’mores and a hammock.
Each cabin also comes with a creekside cabana to use while down by the water. Kayaks and SUP boards are available on site. (Life vests too!)
We spent the majority of the day down at the creek and at the pools.
We spent the evening at the coolest old dance hall that’s been turned into a game room and ended the night with s’mores at our cabin.
This is the perfect trip for Austin families! Not too far, easy to drive to, lots of fun!
