Nice peace break. Disappointed the lower side keeps flooding and closed most the time.
I was told permanently now. Sad only for that.
Great amenities ie. Walking trails, tables, clean restrooms, camping, family fun for the kids, well maintained.
I wished the state of Texas (Government? Lol) would step up fill the need of our State Parks. There is always work to be done to assist the public for safety and maintenance on all our Parks. Mother Neff is small and woody enough to feel like you been in a small mountain & get away when you need a peace break. I like to visit when I'm in town just for silence alone. It's nice that there is one in central TX where you don't have to drive crazy far for that & small enough to get in & out when not crowded. It's beautiful & serene. I visit often & contribute as much as possible. Please donate to our Parks & Thank you for your support.

Great place to see thousand of black widows spiders come out of the cave. And cave drawings too

This is a small park with short trails and a nice pond and stream. Good for a day picnic/hiking as there are plenty of shade in most of the trails.

Great park! The sites and facilities are new and well maintained. Easy access for your camper including a few pull through sites.

The best thing about this place is that it is quiet. The trails are short and hikable for all ages. You often find yourself alone whether hiking in the woods, sitting at the bird watching houses or even the cave. Very calming and relaxing place compared to more busy state parks. Great for bird watchers or photographers.

Beautiful prairie with very nice easy trails. Loved watching the deer in the early morning and evening.

Really enjoyed staying at Mother Neff State Park. Very clean campsites. Concrete both back in and pull throughs. Restrooms/showers were very clean. Loved the trails. Office staff very helpful and friendly.
We had a vehicle/trailer issue when trying to leave. The camp host and Park Rangers came to help us try to figure it out. I'm so sorry I didn't get your names but you know who you are. We can't thank you enough for your help.
We will definitely be back and highly recommend this park.

We found this place while taking back roads and exploring the country side of Texas. Such a beautiful park, full of trails.

Wife and I hiked the trails here and they were beautiful with some awesome history. Trails vary in difficulty but overall great hiking. The visitor center was very well kept and informative with the history of the park

Finest, most clean, best groomed state park in Texas! We had never been there until today, and we were blown away. Smoothest tent camping spots we'd ever seen. Clean bathrooms, great staff, the works. Unless we just hit it on a good day, Mother Neff gets 5 stars from both of us!

We loved this park! The new sites are beautiful, lots of space and clean. Very peaceful and quiet. Lots of hiking. The office staff and park hosts are amazing and full of information and helpful. I hope they get the older part of the park fixed.

Love this State park. First of all, the restrooms and showers are very clean, it's cleaned 2x a day, this is very important to us, (All Texas State Parks take very well care of the cleanse of there facilities) Mother Neff state park is basically in the middle of nowhere, quite, surrounded by the beauty of nature, we didn't have always cell phone connection/internet. The camping sides are beautiful and spacious and you have full hook-ups. If you love nature and quiet, this will be the place for you.

Great place to hike, seen many wildlife while out and about. Had a scarlet milk snake give me almost a heart attack but very beautiful. Will have to try camping here next.

Very nice park. Easy trails, good for families. We didn't stay in the campground, but drove through to check it out for future use. The campground seemed to be very well maintained!

Mother Neff State Park has a special place in my heart. My siblings and I try to go here at least once a year as it is the midpoint between Austin and Dallas. It is a nice quiet park with great amenities and trails. There are also two playgrounds for the littles. It is a kid-friendly park, and the trails are small and easy hikes. There are well-kept campsites available and the restrooms are some of the cleanest I’ve seen! The wash pond is my favorite area of the park. Mother Neff, I believe, is the oldest state park in Texas. Go visit!
