Take the family on an outing to Texas State Railroad Rusk Depot during your trip to Rusk. While you're in the area, wander around the parks.
Though Rusk State Hospital might be what brings you to town, perhaps you'll have a chance to explore more of Rusk while you are here.
Explore the great outdoors at Jim Hogg Park, a lovely green space in Rusk. Make time to visit the shops and monuments while you're in the area.
