Hamilton Pool in Austin Texas
Hamilton Pool Preserve is a historic swimming hole located 3/4 mile upstream from its confluence with the Pedernales River, which is right outside of Austin. Hamilton Creek spills out over limestone outcroppings to create a 50 foot waterfall as it plunges into the head of a steep box canyon. The waterfall never completely dries up, but in dry times it does slow to a trickle. However, the pool's water level stays pretty constant, even during periods of drought. No pets of any kind are allowed. Only a limited number of people are allowed to enter so arrive early, people wait outside and as people leave, others are allowed in. There are no lifeguards on duty so swim at your own risk. There are areas that get pretty deep.
Swimming with the boy.
Peaceful
This is a popular swimming hole west of Austin ...so popular, that in summer, reservations are required. But in winter, reservations are not needed, it is uncrowded, and just as beautiful.

Room was damaged from various parts (hole in the wall), housekeeping didnt clean anything properly routinely-- the sink and toilet was dirty from the moment we checked in, to the point where we had to sanitize the area ourselves.

Cockroach and tick in the room, left the property immediately. Staff (Jose Lopez) unhelpful, claimed I was lying even after I showed him videos of the bugs. Room was poor otherwise - small, poorly lit - much better options in the area.

The cabin was great! It was perfect for our Hill Country getaway. Very close to Pedernales State Park which made it even better. Great place to enjoy some time away from the big city.
