Nothing ruins a lake weekend faster than realizing the cooler’s empty an hour from the nearest store. Zipps Liquor has locations near several of Texas’ most popular lake destinations, so stocking up on the way in is never out of the way.
Texas lake culture runs deep: weekends at the cabin, boats in the water by 9am, and a cooler that needs restocking before the drive home. Zipps built this cluster specifically around that rhythm, with stores positioned on the actual routes people take to get to the water, not just in the nearest town.

Four Lakes, One Cooler-Stocking Mission
Cedar Creek Lake, southeast of Dallas, draws weekend lake-house owners and day-trippers alike, and our Gun Barrel City store sits right on Gun Barrel Lane in the middle of it. Lake Livingston is the largest lake fully within Texas, and it’s big enough that we cover it from four directions: Onalaska on the west side near Cape Royale and Point Blank, Livingston to the north, Coldspring to the southwest, and Trinity up along the Trinity River arm of the lake. Out west, Lake Mineral Wells State Park sits just outside downtown Mineral Wells, and our store there serves both lake visitors and the surrounding Palo Pinto County communities.
Why Lake Visitors Choose Zipps
Whether you’re headed to Cedar Creek Lake for the weekend, out to a cabin on Lake Livingston, or spending the day at Lake Mineral Wells State Park, Zipps stores near each destination carry everything for the cooler (beer, wine, spirits, and mixers) at prices 10% to 30% below what you’d pay closer to the water.
🍺 Beer
Ice-cold domestics, imports, and regional favorites: exactly what a boat cooler or dock party calls for.
🍷 Wine
Easy-drinking whites and reds for a relaxed evening at the lake house, plus a few bottles worth saving for a nicer dinner.
🥃 Spirits
Tequila, vodka, rum, whiskey, and gin for whatever the lake day turns into once the sun goes down.
🍹 Mixers
Everything you need for lake-house cocktails, from classic mixers to the extras that make a weekend feel like a vacation.
Stock Up on the Way In, Not After You’re Already Settled
The whole point of this cluster is convenience on the way to the water. Each of these six stores sits on or near the actual route lake visitors take, so there’s no need to double back into town once you’ve already unloaded the boat. That’s true whether you’re a regular at your Cedar Creek Lake cabin or making your first trip out to Lake Mineral Wells State Park.
