The lake is unique by Texas standards. The shoreline is clear of residences and boat houses as lakes come in Texas. The water is cool and very clear with a depth of over 180 feet in spots.
The best way to view the lake is by boat since roads around the lake are few and not marked well for tourists.
As a mobility impaired person, I noted that there are limited accessible areas other than at the river or museums. Access to the lake by land would be difficult. There are more accessible areas below the dam on the Mountain Fork river.
We plan on returning and renting a boat next summer

With time to spare before dinner, we stopped by for a quick ride with our teenage sons. $7.50 each, cash only, was very reasonable and I highly suggest giving this a whirl. The attendant was very polite and helpful getting us started. Go karts move fast and are way more fun than I remember! Will be back on our next trip!

The wine tasting is outstanding. The service is phenomenal. And the scenery and atmosphere is breathtaking and unmatched by any other. Absolutely love Girls Gone Wine.

This is a "must do" when in Hochatown! It's a great time making your own souvenir pillow and tasting the local wine (and you get a souvenir glass!!). A "make your own apron" was also an option. Definitely stop in when visiting Hochatown!

This was our first time to this park and we were NOT disappointed. It was NOT very busy when we went on a Monday. The trees were beautiful, the lake was green, the sound of the leaves falling was so relaxing and the birds were chirping and singing. Would definitely like to visit again.

Driving by, it does not stand out as a place to visit, but we were pleasantly surprised. Our Grandkids love it. The staff are very friendly and allow for interaction with the animals. The collection is eclectic and most of the animals can be handled inside and petted outside. Not only was it a fun stop for the kids but it also supports a worthy cause.
