Looking for ideas on where to go during Spring Break? If your kids love animals (like my twins do) I highly recommend a weekend getaway to Johnson City and stay at The Exotic Zoo Resort. My girls loved it and didn’t want to leave.
Tips:
*Book your cabin in advance
*Bring groceries (snacks and breakfast) because there aren’t many grocery stores nearby
Here’s a summary of our itinerary:
Saturday
Drive to Johnson City -stop at Bluebonnet Cafe in Marble Falls and order takeout. Don't forget to try their famous pies (so good we ate them and forgot to take a picture)
Head to Johnson Park for picnic and playground fun
Drive to The Exotic Zoo Resort -take a guided tour
Cabin check in
Spend the afternoon swimming in the pool, feeding the animals in the petting zoo or simply relaxing in the cabin
Dinner at Bryans on 290
Sunday
Wake up early to feed the animals
Day trip Fredericksburg (a bit of a drive but it's worth it)
Brunch at Otto’s
See Marktplatz
Go to LBJ park and visit the Sauer-Beckmann Farm (entrance is free)
Stroll in downtown Johnson City
Dinner at Pecan Street Brewing
