Within easy driving distance of San Marcos, you’ll find a quiet getaway: Lockhart State Park. Lockhart State Park was built by the Works Progress Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps over 80 years ago. Enjoy miles of trails, rustic waterfalls, fishing, camping, a swimming pool (in the summer) and a 9-hole golf course. The park offers a picturesque group hall that is available to rent for weddings and other events. In addition to these amenities, the park hosts hundreds of public programs throughout the year that teach nature, history, or outdoor skills (like archery and golf). This month, join us for Zumba with Natalie on 1/17 or Mountain Biking for Beginners with Ranger Gary on 1/24!
