The gift shop has a cozy feel with many interesting and fun items to purchase. 2 stories of  everything from art pieces , jewelery, dishes, to homemade cookies.

If in all the wonder you start to work up an appetite, count yourself  in luck because you’ve saved the best for last … The Camp Verde Cafe .  The food always makes a lasting impression with every thing on the menu under $7 …  always fresh and delicious.

My personal favorite is the “Ooh La La!”   Grilled roast beef, Swiss cheese, grilled onions and garlic mayo on ciabatta bread with au jus ($4.75).

cypress cafe 006 After your meal, take a walk across the street to the park where you can enjoy wonderful Verde Creek (one of the nicest creeks in the Hill Country) or just enjoy the elements sitting at the picnic table with friends.  Perhaps a game of  dominoes?  Check back soon for more Hill Country hot spots and things to do!cypress cafe 003
