In a world full of to-do lists and adult responsibilities, it’s important to find ways to keep your inner child alive. You can do just that at Pease Park in Texas, a whimsical park with a giant, two-story treehouse hammock. The structure looks like something straight out of a fairytale, and laying on it is a surefire way to feel like a kid again.
Conveniently located in the heart of Austin, Pease Park has long been a popular hangout spot for college students and disc golf enthusiasts.
Bring the kids and pets along to make it a family affair. The park recently underwent a massive renovation to include play structures, a splash pad, and even a giant treehouse, so boredom isn't even in the realm of possibilities.

The treehouse is accessible via a hiking trail, and it truly looks like something from a children's storybook.
After a full day of exploring, kick back, relax, and let all your worries dissipate as you listen to the sounds of nature and feel the warm sun on your face.
Let your inner child run wild, using your imagination to transform the hammock into your own personal adventure zone.
Will you lay back and become one with the forest canopy, or see how many different species of wildlife you can spot in the branches? The options are endless!
Underneath the hammock, limestone seating creates the most idyllic setting for group events.
Visit the Pease Park website or Facebook page to learn more – and remember to leave no trace, as the Pease Park Conservancy works hard to preserve the grounds.
