Outdoor Activities At Crider’s Cabins On The Frio
There’s plenty for the outdoorsmen, but if that’s not really your bag you’ll also find much to appreciate at Crider’s. Take Bonnie’s Bakery, for instance.
They sell everything from cinnamon rolls to pigs in blankets, and they’re very reasonably priced. Make sure to preorder though, as Bonnie’s is so popular she tends to sell out.
During the day, why not take advantage of the porch swing adorning each and every cabin, so you can sit and watch the world go by. And when it comes to night time, there are plenty of options too.
If you feel like toasting a few s’mores and telling some ghost stories, then the outdoor firepit fitted at each and every cabin might be the way to go. Otherwise, there’s always the hot tub to help you relax and unwind.
Especially for the Nature Lover
This place truly is heaven for the nature lover: where else could you sit on your porch and watch deer peacefully grazing nearby? It also happens to boast the largest tree in the entire state of Texas. It’s a bald cypress which is 96 feet in height, and may be as much as 700 years old.
A hike along one of the many picturesque trails around Buffalo Creek will always yield one fascinating sight or another, so don’t forget to bring a camera!
