Planning the family vacation for the summer and are considering a trip to either the New Braunfels / San Marcos area or to the Lookout Mountain area around Chattanooga.

Would like to hear pros and cons for both areas and recommendations for things to do / places to visit for each

Hill Country would be my choice--Bigger and better(?) cities and food options--but wife appears to prefer the other.

Go further east from Lookout and explore the little towns scattered around North Georgia and West NC. Dahloenga, Cashiers, Highlands, and such.

Won't get Texas BBQ, but you will find great food if you look hard enough. Texas Hill Country is meh. The little towns are more interesting to me in the Blue Ridge, but if you want a city environment, Austin would be better than Atlanta.

I bring my 3 kids to San Antonio every summer and they absolutely love it.
We float the San Marcos river one day,use Texas state tubes, we float the Guadeloupe one day, kids enjoy the chute part of the river.
Schlitterbahn
Six flags
Sea world
This summer we're going to head 90 miles west one day and try the Frio river float.
My kids enjoy the rivers more than the parks. Not to mention floating the river only cost $10 a person for all day!
