Mother Neff State Park, State park in Coryell County, United States
Mother Neff State Park extends across 259 acres of limestone hills, woodlands, and open fields along the Leon River in central Texas.
The park originated from a 6-acre donation by Isabella Eleanor Neff in 1916, making it the first state park established in Texas.
The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed roads, buildings, and facilities using local materials such as limestone and native hardwoods between 1934 and 1938.
Visitors can access multiple hiking trails, camping areas, and picnic facilities, though the lower section remains closed due to flooding since 2015.
The park includes structures designed in National Park Service Rustic style and received National Register of Historic Places designation in 1992.
