If the traditional wild night isn’t quite your style, Austin still has plenty of bachelorette party destinations for you! One attraction that provides hours of relaxation and fun for locals and visitors alike is Barton Springs. Fed by hot springs that keep the three-acre pool pleasantly warm in all weather, Barton Springs is the perfect place to go for a swim, rent paddle-boards, or pack a picnic.
