Best Party Place

Westlake Beach

In a time brimming with electronic kiddie palaces and manmade pleasure parks, it is refreshing to award a local nature spot Best Kids Party Place. For more than 50 years the Depwe Family has privately held and operated this inviting park featuring covered and open picnic tables, grills, a volleyball court, fishing and swimming areas, and a good ol'-fashioned horseshoe pit (BYO horseshoes and stakes), right on Lake Austin.
