McKinney oozes old Texan charm
It's hard not to fall in love with the quaint grocery shops, craft stores, saloons, and teahouses of McKinney's Main Street, where the green-metal benches hide under plane trees and locals drift between the boutiques shopping and smiling. Maintained but largely unchanged since the middle of the 1800s, it offers an immersive spot to feel the pace and pulse of old Texan life, while a clutch of breweries and pretty recreation areas only add to the enticing mixture of family pursuits. McKinney vacation rentals are your gateway to all that and more.
Immerse yourself in McKinney's old heart
Taking a walking tour of the historic center of old McKinney is the best way to start any exploration of this quaint Texan town. As you wander between the homey boutiques and local art stores, you might find it difficult to believe that your McKinney vacation rental is under 30 minutes' drive from the hustle of downtown Dallas. Cobbled squares in the center also have centuries-old churches and tolling bells, while the nature parks that pepper the peripheries of the place come with winding boardwalk trails, ponds, woodland, and loveable lakes with pedalboats.
Love McKinney's historic builds
You can wonder up at the age-stained water towers, redbrick facades, the tree-shaded sidewalks, and charming city squares of Historic Downtown McKinney as you potter around this preserved chunk of old Texas. Then, it's onto the town's iconic BBQ restaurants for a platter of smoked brisket, or off to the Chestnut Square Historic Park, where you can go even deeper into the past of McKinney. For families with kids in tow, the Heard Natural Science Museum is the perfect place to while away warm days, flitting between dinosaur monuments and seeking out fossils along the paths.
Skip the heat in McKinney
If you're not restricted to visiting Texas during the school vacation, then it's certainly worth looking to book those McKinney vacation rentals in the fall. That's after the main heat of the Southern summer has receded, leaving the town with mild, long, dry days that are simply perfect for touring up and down historic Main Street. That's also the time of year when farmers' markets and harvest festivals take place, adding a charming local vibe to proceedings.
McKinney and the Texan lakes
McKinney is one of the northernmost cities in the Texan Lake District. It sits nestled between the spreading tendrils of both Lavon Lake and Lewisville Lake. The former is more off-the-beaten-path, with its large dams, fishing spots, and RV camps. The latter is famed for its sporting venues, boating jetties, has sprawling golf clubs, and large parkland areas that entice birders and trekkers with their clusters of forestry and wetland banks. To the north of McKinney is where the rolling prairies of Texas begin to shoot away into the distance.
