Emma Long Metropolitan Park is located on Lake Austin, right off 2222 (about a 10 minute drive down City Park Road). It’s one of the largest parks in Austin, complete with a boat dock, camping facilities, swimming areas, sand volleyball courts and more.
Turkey Creek trail, which offers 2.5 miles of shaded, scenic hiking, is nearby and a perfect spot to let your dog run and splash in the water. It’s an off-leash area, and a mini paradise for dogs that love to explore. They’ll be in heaven.
But of course Emma Long is a great place for humans, too. It’s inexpensive, especially if you can make it there during the week when it’s less crowded and admission is only $5 per car. Admission is $10 per car Friday through Sunday, but even that is a good deal for all the park has to offer.

Back in 2010, a taqueria opened its doors in a small space off Hudson Bend Road across from the Los Pinos Restaurant. As with most inconspicuous restaurants that pop up in the area, you might find yourself a little hesitant to give it a try without hearing about it from someone else first.
Well, it didn’t take long for word of mouth to spread and for the five star reviews on Yelp to start coming in. Even people from South Austin were making the drive out to Lake Travis to experience items from a menu filled with a melting pot of traditional comfort foods from Mexico City.
And after four years at a place with only eight tables (and no liquor license), the dream of moving to a larger space became a reality when the former Sobani Restaurant was vacated. The more noticeable location is in the Light House Market at Ranch Road 620 and Oak Grove Blvd., just a few miles away from the inconspicuous original taqueria that started off Hudson Bend Rd.
