Things To Do

If you’re sitting at home googling "lakes near me" and wondering which are the best lakes to explore on a weekend or a daytrip, here are five beautiful North Texas lakes that are within easy reach of Plano, Frisco and McKinney.

Enjoy a break from the rain this weekend and celebrate Memorial Day! There are plenty of outdoor and indoor activities to participate in this weekend, with lots of opportunities to have some good food, drinks, and fun.

Drive up the highway toward Amarillo, and the city fades away. The land turns into rocky terrain stubbled with cacti under hazy blue skies. There, you’ll find the second biggest canyon in the United States, Palo Duro Canyon.

Frisco parents — are you looking for the best playgrounds in your area? As the weather warms up and the school year ends, kids will want to head outdoors and play in the sunshine.

Just outside Burnet, Texas, towering at 90 feet high, Castle Falkenstein confuses and astounds passersby with its towers, stone gates, and sweeping balconies. It’s often mistaken for a tourist attraction, but it’s really so much more.

It can be hard to know which parks have the best playgrounds to take your kids to. Some look clean online, but aren't in person. And others may not have restrooms available.

While this past week has brought more rain than anyone would ever ask for, the weekend is looking much brighter and warmer (for now, at least). That being said, rain is forecast to come back next week, so take advantage of the weather this weekend.

Marfa TX should be unremarkable. Instead, it’s an artistic paradise on the Texas edge of the Rio Grande. It is a center of culture where dozens of artists—and even more tourists—come to find themselves and collect pins, bongs, and bumper stickers.

Happy Mother’s Day! Thank the women in your life by taking them to a delicious Mother's Day brunch or enjoying an outdoor Mother's Day activity with them in Allen, Frisco, Plano, McKinney, and The Colony.
