    What makes it fun

    A one of a kind art-in-nature experience, Laguna Gloria is a great place to visit. Consisting of 14 acres on Lake Austin’s shores, Laguna Gloria provides the ability to discover art and look into the creative process through installations and exhibitions by distinguished artists. It is a great place to be in tune with art and whomever you decide to share the experience with.

    A great spot in Austin to walk around in nature and enjoy modern sculptures. There are great views of the lake/river and there are sculpture installations scattered throughout the property, including along the shoreline. It's interesting to see how the sculptures interact with their surroundings versus just being placed in a "white box" museum. Kids can have some room to run, just no touching most of the pieces. If you have Bank of America I believe you can get in free some weekends, check their website.

    My family loved it here. Everyone was nice and welcoming. Beautiful, serene and peaceful place. We saw some unique exhibits. Photographers and painters were around painting the scenic views and taking pictures. Several classes to attend for adults and kids. There was a class for kids in session sculpting clay bowls. We saw the same class later walking with their instructor through the trails learning about different plants, trees, and sculptures. Free for educators. Great for first dates or just to take a stroll enjoying nature. Great for kids

    Fantastic food and experience. The atmosphere is amazing. From the interior to the outdoor seating and the dock, it's all gorgeous. The food was stellar, the Hawaiian fajitas are unique and very tasty! I would also recommend their frozen drinks and their chicken tortilla soup. Great service all around.

    Excellent to walk around and enjoy the art and nature.Staff was very nice and helpful.If it's your first time and don't have a reservation; visit the visitor center to the path to the left of the front gate, door on the right, to obtain a ticket.
