Has anyone here visited the Gaylord Texan in Texas?

If you have, how did you feel about it? I just got back from visiting my family in Texas and this is a place that I went to twice with family and friends. It is amazing as it is a huge conference center with a riverwalk inside of it. They have nice water fountain displays in there right now as well as beautiful flower arrangements and train sets going around. They have a nice sports bar restaurant with a huge screen tv and other tvs for sports fans plus several other restaurants and shops there. If you happen to be in the Fort Worth area, you should check it out. They decorate it per holidays and seasons so the scenery inside it changes. I will include a picture.

I have been there, kgwat. I live in the area and we go at least once a year to see it at the holidays. We often go at other times of the year as well, but never miss it at the holidays. We have friends who live on the other side of the metroplex than us and it is a wonderful place to meet them for dinner and some family fun.

I bet it looks wonderful during christmas time as my family told me how they decorate it really nice and have a Santa Claus there and more. It is a nice place to meet people for dinner with the different restaurants they have inside there.

Its nice to see you again, its been a long time. I am glad you still check in every now and then. I have never been to the place that you are talking about. It does sound really nice though. The river walk thru it sounds so cool. I am happy that you had a nice time visiting with your family and friends. Are you originally from Texas? Vacation time and visiting time with family and friends always goes way to quick, and then before you know it, its back to reality and real life. Take care, glad you had a safe trip, welcome back.

I have been quite busy so i have not been on here too much but did add some pictures to my interests section. It was a nice time with my family there though it was short and they were very busy. Seaworld was a blast and the Gaylord Texan was nice and had good food and enjoyed the scenery. I am from Delaware but my sister and brother moved to Texas after living in other states.

I have never been there, nor have I been to Texas yet, but this does sound like a nice place to visit if I ever get a chance to get to Texas. This really sounds beautiful and a place I would enjoy visiting. Glad you enjoyed it, and wanted to share it with us as well.
