Devil's Waterhole
Creek · Texas
About this swimming hole
A narrow canyon on the edge of Inks Lake State Park holds a chain of small waterfalls and swim pools. The main pool sits beneath a pour-off that runs after rain, with smooth rock slides worn into the creek bed. It is reached by a short trail and feels wilder than the park's main beach.
