weddings at a state or county park?

Has anyone had or been to a small wedding at a state or county park?

Just wondered if anyone had any suggestions. It has to be around the Austin area (although I may consider one around the Dallas area).

Would like to have a dining hall I could rent (doesn't have to be huge, enough for under 30 people). And also, if it had a very nice scenic area (a waterfall, by a lake or river, field of wildflowers, a view of hill country) to have the wedding ceremony, that would be wonderful.

Any suggestions?

Can be a state park or a travis county park or a LCRA park.

Check out Canyon of the Eagles Lodge and Nature Park.

Texas Weddings, Texas Hill Country Outdoor Wedding Locations at the Canyon of the Eagles

This is an LCRA park, though the lodge is operated by a private company. It's very nice and a bit pricey. We had a family reunion there last Thanksgiving and the Thanksgiving dinner was fabulous!

Yep, that is a nice place. Didn't think of it but should have.

Happy Camping!
