Volente Beach - (512) 258-5109

Only two of the three slides were open. If you enjoy gravel/large rock beaches and don't mind swimming with water bottle wrappers, hot pocket microwave sleeves, and assorted other trash, then this place is for you. If you like the look of the water trampoline or other climbing apparatus in the lake area, be prepared to wait since they only allow four people in the water at one time. Two life guards are present but for some unknown reason could only watch 4 people at a time. And when we were there, July 21st, one of the life guards *on duty* was jumping off someone's private boat at the marina. He wasn't doing a lot of water monitoring. If you like to get soused while your children are playing in pools or the lake, then you will love this place. I guess one of the highlights of our visit there was the over 40 year old mom *treating* everyone to a lap dance on one of the picnic tables. Again, if this is what you're looking for in a place to take your children, then you will no

We loved it! There was so much to do, but not too much! Many shaded areas for relaxing and great food! Burgers were so huge that for the $9.00 charge, 2 of us shared! We went back to my husbands company party and loved the catering dept! The food was great, prompt, and we booked for next year already! You have to go and visit the Blu Parrot bar and restaurant too! Great food, drinks and live music! They are open weekend even now!

We went here one time for a birthday party so we didn't pay admission, but it still was too expensive. There just isn't enough stuff to do. After an hour my kids were begging to go home. About the nicest thing it has going for it is the sand beach it has on one of our local lakes. Instead of cutting your feet on the sharp granite rocks located at every other place on the lake where you can get in, you can run around bare-footed just like at any other beach. They also have an alcohol cart that will bring the party to you if you choose.
