    Lake Travis seems like my kind of get away. It is filled with adventurous activities like zip lining and scuba diving. I also heard so many things about Houston but never know about its wilderness.

    Nice posts about destinations in Texas. To be honest I would think every place can be a romantic getaway if you have the right partner with you. And I would love to visit most of the places alone or with a significant other or with a group of friends. Guadalupe Mountains National Park looks quite stunning!

      Well, you definitely have a point here. With the right partner, every destination can be a romantic getaway. I certainly agree, but also the place you spend your time in can play an important role for a memorable experience.

    I must admit that I have only ever visited Texas for business and have not looked at it as a romantic destination. So it was fun to check out this post and get some new ideas. We do love a little adventure and agree that makes a great romantic idea. I had not realized that Austin is the “Live Music Capital” or that there were some great botanical gardens in Texas. A hot air balloon ride has always been high on my list of things to do and we have yet to do it. All great ideas for a romantic Texas visit.

    I’ve never thought of Texas as a romantic kind of place, but you’ve enlightened me! I love the look of the SkyBox Cabin In Glen Rose Lodge. It’s such a cozy scene for two. And a stroll through the San Antonio Botanical Gardens would be swoon-worthy as well. Any time we are out in nature, it seems easier to reconnect with a loved one, so I’d be happy to head over to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park, Cedar Creek or Lake Travis. Clearly, there’s something for all kinds of romance-seekers in Texas!

    Great ideas for a romantic time for couples in Texas. I plan to return to this state for a longer time because I was only passing through. San Antonio is a highly romantic and beautiful place with fantastic architecture. Perfect for walks or dinners for two. Houston has its charm too. On my list are Big Bend National Park and Guadalupe Mountains National Park. I haven’t had a chance to visit these parks yet. A very inspiring list!
