Drinks & Nightlife
It's always a good time at a piano bar! I would recommend reserving tables though. It gets pretty packed on the weekends.

The brass tap has some great bands and a really rustic feel to it. High ceilings help to keep it feeling airy and comfortable, even on a busy night.

Parks & Nature
This park is RIDICULOUS! Its such a great area for the kids to run around. Also great hiking, biking trails that run along a creek. Awesome green belt area. The park has a race track that kids can take bikes, scooters or anything to "race" around the track. There's plenty of picnic tables to have lunch or snack at. You could rent a party area if you wanted as well. No shortage of swings, zip lines, sand, dirt, it goes on and on. It's neat how it starts on the far right as a toddler/little kid area and as you go farther left it goes more into the big kid area. They even built a little pretend town with stop lights, sidewalks, an heb, bank, police station, pet store and other shops.

Huge park! Lots of fun zip lines and climbing structures. It's by water that you can kayak in if you want. Near there is Hat Creek and Salt lick (both have playgrounds) if you want to stop for a bite to eat after.

One of my favorite spots to hike. There are a few different trails. One-half paved/unpaved and it winds around the forest where you come upon moss-covered ponds and creeks. Nice quick hike or, you can take the paved walkway and that will take you all the way to lake Georgetown.

Russell park is a perfect place to put in your kayak or paddle board. If you go straight across from the swimming beach, you'll find an alcove with the fern wall waterfall. It really is a beautiful site. You can also hike to the fern wall if you like. It's about a 3-4 hour hike.

Essentials
Although I do offer a washer and dryer, sometimes you need to get a lot done in a little amount of time. This laundromat is clean and very close to The Boho House.

There is also an HEB off of Louis Henna Blvd, but I like the PLUS and it is about the same distance. You get to drive through downtown Round Rock and get a feel for that as well. HEB Plus has a bigger selection and you can order online and pick it up if you like! Just make sure to order it the day before. I haven't been able to get it day of yet.

Surrounding the outlet mall are plenty of restaurants, an HEB, IKEA, Outdoor World (super fun just for the kids to look at!). There's not much for wanting in this area. It has almost everything!

Great for kids! There's a modest playground area for the kids to run off steam while you enjoy a beer. I love the chicken sandwich!! My kid has moved on from the tiny hat to the big hat burger. Food quality is what brings me here (along with the playground)

Thick juicy gourmet burgers! I haven't been to the one here in Round Rock since they opened so I would check on the wait time. I know the one downtown usually has a wait so be prepared for that. But the truffle fries are super tasty as well!
