Mother Neff State Park

Mother Neff State Park is the first official state park in Texas. It began with six acres of land donated by Mrs Isabella Eleanor ("Mother") Neff in 1916. Her son, Governor Pat Neff, created the Mother Neff Memorial Park in 1921. The park became the nucleus of the Texas State Park System. It now contains 259 acres in Coryell County, west of Moody.

In the 1930's, the Civilian Conservation Corps restored the park to its historical setting. The main activities presently are camping, hiking, picnicking, fishing from the banks of the Leon River, and wildlife observation.
