Escape life for a bit and take your friends and family to Peter Pan Mini Golf, a little slice of heaven where you never have to grow up. Enjoy your time as you putt-putt your way through two 18-hole courses, where you will meet Peter Pan, Captain Hook, T-Rex, and even a shoe, chucks style. Over the years, the park has gained a reputation as a place for families and people of all ages to spend a great day or evening, Austin style.
The Elisabet Ney Museum is the historic home and studio of Elisabet Ney, a wildly iconoclastic German sculptor who moved to Austin in 1882. The museum enthusiastically celebrates her art, history, and legacy through exhibitions and events for the whole family. Her commissions include notable European luminaries and those who shaped early Texas history, including well-known Texans Stephen Austin and Sam Houston, whose portraits both stand in the national and state capitals today.
