Wimberley is a fun place to be with plenty to do. From good restaurants and drinking establishments to live music and natures blessings. Take the time to smell the roses and enjoy the scenery. Welcome to Wimberley.
The Corral Theatre - It's a summertime thing. Much like the drive-ins of old but this one you walk into with your lawn chair and cooler. One of my favorite Wimberley pastimes.
