Lockhart State Park, 9/15/13 - 9/16/13

4. We needed a quick getaway, this park is perfectly situated from Austin!  Our friends even came to our site and the 4 of us went into Lockhart for world-famous BBQ.  We took it all back to our Scampsite to eat it.   We also hiked all over the park, including up to the recreation hall at the top of the hill, which was built by the CCC in 1933.  There are only 20 sites, so it's a pretty small park, but it does boast the only 9-hole golf course entirely run by Texas Parks and Wildlife!  The creek was pretty dry when we were there.  There is also a swimming pool, open Memorial Day through Labor Day, a basketball court, sand volleyball court and several short trails.   Scampsite #15.
Lockhart is a really cute town, worthy of a visit other than for the BBQ.  The courthouse is lovely and they do holiday tours in the winter.  The square has nice shops and cafes.
