Love this place for their margaritas! My favorite: Swirl margarita (lime margarita with sangria). Food is okay here, but definitely worth a stop for one margarita. Be careful, more than one margarita can make you pretty sloppy!

This place has the best beer selection in town. My favorite: McCanauhaze IPA. They also have a great breakfast menu-avocado toast and salmon board are pretty tasty. The meatball with spazal is delicious as well. It has a great German feel and hosts musical entertainment from time to time. Very busy on the weekends, but the outdoor sitting area is big with multiple picnic tables. They allow dogs in the outdoor area too which is a big plus!

Wonderful place to take the kiddos for a day at the pool. There is a lap pool and a natural pool which can be pretty refreshing. I used to take my kids fishing for crawfish here when they were little. We fed the ducks and the deer, but I believe you are not allowed to feed the wildlife anymore. There is a small passenger train that runs for the little ones which is pretty fun for them. Every Thursday during the summer months, there is a band that plays here and it is free.

This is a beautiful drive from New Braunfels to Sattler. There are many camping areas along the river. Be aware of purple fence posts, as all property along the river is privately owned so do not trespass. If you'd like to enjoy the river, there are several points of entry at different establishments along the way where you can rent a tube and get a ride back to your car.

This is a place you can wakeboard without a boat! You are pulled by a cable in a circle on the water and it includes different kinds of kickers and rails to hit if you are advanced enough. There is a boat lake where you can arrange to be pulled by a boat as well. It's a fun place for beginners and skilled boarders. Check Groupon for deals.
