Love this place... From the Victorian Mansion located on a small mountain...to the one mile long zipline; this is simply the best adventure experience in the East Texas Hill country. You MUST make advance reservations...as they are booked months in advance.

Absolutely LOVE this place. We take a group of friends out here every year in mid to late June and pick about three gallons of blueberries. We freeze em and use em on cobblers, pancakes, smoothies all year. They have a great shop and they also sell blueberry bushes that you can plant at your own home. We curehtly have three of em at the BNB.

Lake Palestine
OK...you have small kids...and you don't want to go through the hassle of hiring a guide at Lake Palestine, and you have smaller kids. The Freshwater Fisheries Center in Athens is the perfect destination to give your kiddies the first fishing experience. Lots of displays and a fully stocked fishing pond. They rent your tackle and you can buy your bait.
