This little gem just on the fringe of Austin is such a cool & eclectic experience!
My darling family of 4 loaded up our SUV with blankets, chairs, small picnic table, fresh pressure cooked pulled pork & slaw and headed out for the evening to see some fantastic movies in a double feature.
We were greeted warmly by the owner as he checked our reservation & guided us to a perfect spot under large oak trees where we could park it for the evening with the gate lifted.
Everything was set up within a few min and our kids were off bounding through the expansive green yard to play toss games, frisbee & meet other kids their age. We set up the back of the car like a bed and my husband and I enjoyed date night on the chairs drinking good margaritas! (It's BYOB, so be reasonable with behavior or they'll kick you out)
We served up dinner, shared with some neighbors, visited concessions where we grabbed popcorn, Harry Potter chocolate frogs & some wizardly jelly beans!
The kids fell asleep in the car after the first movie giving us a great second movie date night.
The facilities were spectacularly clean, the staff friendly & helpful and everything was coming up roses all evening!
BEST FAMILY DATE NIGHT EVER!
