  • Kerrville is one of those special Hill Country towns where you can stay with tradition or try something new. Whether your idea of a good time is kicking back with a beer, jumping into a swimming hole or strolling through incredible art, this is your 'ville.
    Downtown Kerrville is a great place to start your day. Whether you’re grabbing breakfast at the Hill Country Cafe, which is also the site of the first ever HEB or fueling up with espresso at the fashion-forward, velvet cushioned coffeehouse PAX. Another spot worth checking out is Schreiner Goods, an upscale department store named for the original pioneer Charles Schreiner, Sr., “the Father of the Hill Country.”
    In town is the headquarters of Texas’s most beloved jewelry maker. Tour the visitor’s center and store to see how James went from tinkering silver in his garage for nearby church camps to a global phenomenon. The museum also shows the entire manufacturing process from beginning to finished product.
    This is Kerrville’s largest art installation, and also one of the largest in the US. It’s a beautiful representation of the life of Jesus, with sculptures depicting various stages of his life and the Bible spread out across the garden, with a 77-ft. tall cross in the middle. It’s a monumental work of art, designed to inspire and encourage, no matter your beliefs.
    Out in Ingram, or “West K” to the locals, the Stonehenge II replica invites all who want to walk on the weird side. And to add to the oddity of this artwork are the neighboring Easter Island heads.
    Handcrafted beer, gourmet food, weird murals - everything you need for a good time. The beer was brewed with the smooth finish in mind, resulting in a clean and refreshing sip. The food is made locally - with artisan pizza, scratch-made pretzels and pulled pork sandwiches from the local farm.
    Grocery Store, Bank, and Local Pub? You got that right! Since 1946, this has been the cornerstone of Hunt, TX - and for good reason. They do all the things you’d expect a country store to do well - chicken fried steak, burgers, etc., plus more! Order the Hot Cruncy Shrimp with Mango Aioli for a shock to your tastebuds!
    When the weather gets hot, the locals get slidin’. Right on the Guadalupe River the Ingram Dam is the Hill Country’s greatest (and most natural) waterslide. You can also drive up stream and find a more quite spot to hop in.

    I like how you don't just showcase food, but you also go for the history and today, a business with a shared history and success story. Many thanks for helping us understand how blessed we are to be Texans.
    Please do me a super huge favor and see if my stone dam is still there under the overpass near Pecos. My dad drove us there for private family outings and when I was 12 years old I built a dam somewhere near Pecos under an overpass highway bridge. That would have been five decades ago and we called it, Willie's Dam. We move to South Texas after I built it and I was just hoping, no one tore it up. Thank you for anything you offer and the great show. Be blessed always 🙏

    Born and raised in Kerrville. There is a whole lot about Avery's that wasn't covered. Mainly the designers that were hired for short periods to get their ideas and then fired. The strong arm tactics used in the early days to eliminate competition. They have also moved away from the quality standards they once had to mass production where fair has become the standard.

    Hi, my dad has a room for rent in Kerville tx. The apartment has all the services. The room is next to the bathroom. Good size. Very good lighting. Air-conditioning. In fact there is a room inside the gated community with 2 washing machines and 2 clothes dryers. They have cost. The apartment well located. Very calm. It's families that live here. It is close to an HEB (walking I do 6 minutes) Walmart, restaurants, downtown Kerrville, Gas Station, etc. With a car it would be closer to everything. There is a lot of security here. Most are retired from the army and take great care of the city.
