Thompson Drive west of Sidney Baker South in Kerrville

Louise Hays Park is a lovely little spot in the heart of downtown Kerrville. The Guadalupe River flows through the park and has been dammed to form a natural swimming pool. The river bottom is rocky. Sloping, grassy banks are dotted with picnic tables, gazebos, and swans. A footbridge offers access to Tranquility Island where you can swim and picnic under tall cypress trees.
