Nestled in geologically-unique canyon full of rare species in Cedar Hill, TX.
The historic Leeper House anchors spectacular native gardens at the gateway to perhaps the best birding in San Antonio, on Mitchell Lake and the surrounding 1,200 acres of native habitat.
Stunning prairie views, five miles of hiking trails through the Great Trinity Forest, and excursions on the Trinity River are just the beginning of this world away, just ten minutes from downtown Dallas.
