The Great Outdoors: McKinney Falls State Park Is a Natural Gem In Austin!

-

Spring is here, or at least it will be here in Texas very soon. What better way to enjoy the season than experiencing the magic that is the great outdoors? Enjoying some quality nature can really help when it comes to getting the fresh air and exercise your body needs to be at its best! And since you’ve probably been hitting the couch for so many months like I have thanks to Covid, it’s definitely a good idea to go out and experience some quality time out and about. 

Located on 5808 McKinney Falls Parkway, McKinney Falls State Park is the perfect place to spend a day out in nature, complete with natural limestone formations and scenic wooded areas perfect for an afternoon hike. The green forest trails are also excellent for biking and guests can even enjoy some quality time at campsites and cabins when they’re ready to unwind. Enjoy an introspective look at Austin’s indigenous vegetation and wildlife, along with a beautiful view of Onion Creek flowing into the falls. There’s even the remains of an early Texas homestead, complete with an ancient rock shelter! Regardless of what you’re looking for, the park is definitely worth the trip, especially if you’re looking for a relaxing weekend getaway.

Ever-handy, Treehouse Apartments are the best residential apartments to live in when it comes to having close proximity to the park. With affordable studio, one, and two-bedroom units just waiting for your happy homemaking, you’ll enjoy an array of high-quality amenities as well as friendly staff and service. It’s a great overall deal whenever you want a place to live that has quick reach to the park nearby. Getting around Austin can sometimes be unpredictable and that means you’ll want to live someplace with speedy commutes.

The McKinney Falls State Park is open daily from 8am to 10pm and is taking proper safety precautions for Covid-19. Fishing and swimming are permitted, barring potential weather conditions. For additional information, you can visit their website HERE. Roast some marshmallows by the campfire and enjoy the true beauty of nature!
