SAN MARCOS

Whether you're planning that family summer vacation, your next romantic getaway, a girls' shopping marathon, or a professional conference with all the bells and whistles, San Marcos always has something to celebrate. Conveniently located in Central Texas between Austin and San Antonio, San Marcos truly is the center of everything. So no matter where you are, you won't have far to go. 

If you prefer a slower pace and full weekend trips from Houston are more your style, San Marcos is an excellent choice.

Located 3 hours from downtown, it’s close enough for a day trip but surrounded by enough natural beauty to keep you occupied for longer.

Hike the trails at Purgatory Creek Natural Area, tube and kayak at Rio Vista Park, or cool off in the gorgeous swimming hole at Five Mile Dam Park.

Prefer your outdoor time with a side of adrenaline? Thrill-seekers will love water skiing or wakeboarding at Texas Ski Ranch.

At Palmer’s Restaurant Bar & Courtyard you can enjoy Texas Hill Country cuisine, luscious cocktails and a carefully selected beer and wine list that includes some of Texas' best. Located in historic west San Marcos, Palmer's is a beautifully renovated building constructed in the 1920s. The courtyard is a showcase for dozens of plant species that include many rare Texas natives. Discover Palmer's for yourself on a romantic date, a lively lunch, a warm family gathering, or a pleasant business dinner.
