About Cool
Cool is a tiny, peaceful community in Parker County with a population of around 250 residents. Located along Highway 180 between Weatherford and Mineral Wells, the town got its start in the late nineteenth century as an agricultural and ranching settlement. As local legend has it, early travelers gave the spot its catchy name after noticing a welcome break from the Texas heat compared to the surrounding hills.
Today, Cool appeals to people looking for quiet country living with room to breathe and quick access to nearby towns. Families in the area are served by the Millsap Independent School District. While the community stays quiet and rural, everyday shopping, dining, and services in Weatherford are only a short drive down the highway.
