Bobcat Bucket List #3

Bucket List #3 - Visit the Meadows Museum

Formerly called Aquarena Springs, a historic amusement park that you can read about on our blog, the Meadows Museum is one of San Marcos’ treasured spots.

The museum is eerily beautiful with its Spanish moss swaying in the breeze above Spring Lake. During the spring and summer, the air is thick with humidity and almost silent. It’s so quiet that fish jumping are the loudest sound and turtles bathe in clumps on logs that you can see by walking along the boardwalk.

The Meadows Museum allows nature to take its course so scientists can research this special spring. If you want to see more wildlife than on the trails, you can buy tickets to ride on clear-bottomed boats.
