Hamilton Pool Preserve

#summervacay Swimming in Hamilton Pool on a hot day is like jumping into a dream. The jade-colored water, surrounded by limestone cliffs and dripping ferns, felt like a secret world tucked into the Hill Country. It’s a bit of a hike down, but the reward is total serenity. I laid on the pebble beach, took dips in the cool water, and just listened to nature. You need a reservation to get in—but trust me, it’s worth planning ahead. #summervacay
