The 2018/19 school year is coming to an end, summer is right around the corner and vacation season has already begun - we are looking forward to a great summer at Mystic Quarry. With the abundance of rain we’ve had in the area, the river is full and flowing great and the lake looks amazing! Mystic Quarry is just a short trek away from both the Guadalupe River and Canyon Lake. Our tiny homes, dog-friendly cottages, RV spots and tent camping are ready for you to come and enjoy a relaxing or event filled stay.

Check out our Blog for previous Newsletter and Information about the Canyon Lake area and of course, Mystic Quarry.

Not quite Lewis and Clark, but how cool are these two adventurers paddling on the Mystic Quarry pond!? The rains have filled up our ephemeral stream and pond so these young campers decided to seize the opportunity to kayak where no one has kayaked before...very cool!

“Music Under the Stars”

Mystic Quarry provides live music to our guests for free from Memorial Day to Labor Day (typically on Friday nights and opposite the days Whitewater has live music). In June, the 'Music Under the Stars' series kicks off with The Chris Cuevas Project June 14, Big State June 21 and Brad Boyer finishing up the month on June 28.

All four bands put on a great show with each demonstrating their own style of blues, soul, country and of course, good old rock n’ roll. Bands start playing around 7:30pm under the arbor so feel free to bring a chair, a cooler and a free spirit ready for fun. Check out our Mystic Quarry Facebook Event Page for the Mystic Quarry "Music Under the Stars" Summer Series line-up, dates and times.

June is going to continue a great summer lineup at Whitewater Amphitheater. Billy Currington on June 1, Randy Rogers June 8, and Midland plays June 29. Visit Whitewater website for tickets and our front desk to arrange for a round-trip shuttle for the events.

Hey Chick Chick!

We had a sweet surprise one afternoon when one of our hens emerged from the woods with eight fluffy chicks in her wake. We hadn’t seen her for about a month and thought she was "gone forever". Thankfully we were wrong! This fierce Mama is very protective of her babies and is always teaching them where the good bugs, worms and seeds are located. We’ve enjoyed watching them grow and learn. While not hiding in the woods hatching eggs, our other girls are laying daily giving us plenty of tasty eggs to eat and share.
