Feeding enormous catfish at the Texas Freshwater Fisheries Center might be the most interactive science lesson you'll ever experience. The Henderson County Historical Museum reveals how this self-proclaimed 'Black-Eyed Pea Capital of the World' evolved from prairie outpost to certified retirement community. Take a picnic to Athens Lake Park or explore the underwater world at Athens Scuba Park, where submerged curiosities await divers of all levels. The Henderson County Performing Arts Center offers surprising cultural depth for a small city, while local coffeehouses provide perfect people-watching perches. Trinity River offers peaceful nature communion, and the Athens Bowling Center provides family entertainment when the Texas heat demands indoor activities.

Quality Inn & Suites Canton

8/10 Good
"The location was excellent, close to everything we needed with many places to eat nearby and easy access to main roads. The room was available and clean at check in time, and checking in was quick and efficient. There were very minor problems (the TV remote needed new batteries, and the bathroom door stuck a little) but nothing in life is perfect. Wifi was a little sketchy, but that seemed to be a problem in that area, not just in the hotel. Breakfast was a typical continental breakfast, about what we expected for the price--nothing fancy but more than adequate. Coffee, juice, yogurt, toast, choice of jellies, two kinds of cereal, and apples. There were certainly other options in the area if you want something hot or more elaborate, but for a free and quick meal, it was sufficient, with even a waffle maker available. The lobby and breakfast area were roomy and nicely decorated. We weren't able to really make use of the pool and hot tub, as the weather did not cooperate. Parking was plentiful and free of charge. All in all, the hotel met our needs and was comfortable. The area seemed safe, and the property is pet-friendly for a nominal fee. I would recommend it to anyone staying in the area."

"This is my go to place when staying in the Chandler area. The hotel is right off 31 and close to the grocery store, gas stations, and many fast food restaurants. The location is great. Large parking lot makes it easy to find a space, the hotel is clean and offers free coffee all day and a little area to buy snack foods. Staff is wonderful, friendly, and helpful."
