Glamping in Hill Country with swimming

We have been to many glamping sites in TX but I have not seen such a beautiful site with a high elevation view. The host made it extra special sending us a small gift to celebrate our anniversary.. A beautiful night under the stars that you won't forget!

Very peaceful and the perfect escape I needed to get away from the city. Would definitely be back again.

Weekend Trip to HomeAway Ranch & Wildlife Preserve

William was so welcoming and he is a clear and helpful communicator. The views were beautiful and the site was private. Thank you William!

Being close to the horses, donkeys, goats, pigs, turkey was fun. Easy little getaway.

3 nights at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

Great location, beautiful camp ground. Had a blast, wish the weather would have been better so we could’ve been outside more.

We enjoyed our stay in the big cabin. It fit our family of 7 and we had plenty of things to do! This place was perfect for kids, even toddlers. We felt safe the entire time and the property manager was there if we needed anything. We’ll definitely come back, but with friends!!!

Weekend Trip to Texas Tranquility at Al's Hideaway

We were met by Al himself and given a tour of the land and then upgraded to a better spot complete with a phantastic Merry Prankster inspired bus to hang out in! Had to leave a night early but will 10/10 return!

3 nights at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

We loved staying in the Ultimate Privacy Jupe. We swam, fished, paddle boarded and explored all day. The river access was awesome and we enjoyed the site a lot. The bed was comfy and we stayed warm and dry during an evening thunder storm. We will definitely be back.

2 nights at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

Tent camping at Dos Rios was excellent! Plenty of space and well-maintained sites. Campgrounds were quiet with beautiful views and skies+

Weekend Trip to Sound Ground (fka Reverse Pioneers)

Spot was convenient from Guadalupe River State Park. Host was easy to communicate with and the place was easy to find. The spot was nice and private.

Weekend Trip to Orrasis Ranch

I LOVED the Bait House! It was just the right size for a getaway with myself and my dog. I think 2 adults max would be comfortable here. It had everything I needed and more. The outdoor shower was a delightful experience. The only downside for me was they have chickens and roosters on the property and I was awoken by the cock-a-doodle-do before dawn every morning. The house was is located near a few parks so we were able to enjoy hiking within 10 minutes from the property. Downtown Marble Falls is also about 10 min away if you want local dining experiences, which I did grab takeout from 2 different restaurants while I was there. Overall it was a nice little getaway and great location!

Beautiful, quiet site with the starriest nights! Our dog loved it as much as we did.

Weekend Trip to Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

Beautiful piece of land nested in the Hill Country! Bill is a wonderful host and our one night stay made us want to come back and stay for longer

We stayed at Tentrr 5B. Great camping site. The river nearby is awesome/clean water and good fishing. Very remote and was quiet at night. Campsites are very close together so not really private. Hosts are nice. The bed was comfortable. Downside is the public restrooms and showers are absolutely disgusting/dirty. It’s worse than a nasty truck stop. I would not advise anyone much less a woman use them. Overall, though it’s a good place with great river access but if you’re looking for somewhere that you have a little privacy this is not it as there are RV’s/campsites stacked right on top of each other and people are everywhere. If you don’t want that then you should go somewhere else. Also the James River Icehouse is right across the road from the campground and it’s excellent!! Great burgers and people there are super friendly!!

Weekend Trip to Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

I really did enjoy my spot on the number 3 the 10th I'm glad that I had campers across the way and close to the bathroom and the river was just beautiful wish there was more water but all in all it was a great time

3 nights at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

Dos Rios was there PERFECT spot for my family! We stayed 3 nights at the Tiny Cabin 12. It had everything we needed from kitchen appliances, to clean bedding and towels! This space accommodated me my partner, my 8 month old, 8 year old and our German shepherd. Super comfortable, nice AC, hot showers, and a fire pit to cook on outside. The main guy that was working there helped us as soon as we arrived! He was a huge help to us during our stay! The river area was so beautiful every morning and evening, very clean around the whole RV park. I highly recommend this place to anyone especially if you have kids or pets! Everyone around us was very respectful and polite ❤️❤️ We will be back again!

Weekend Trip to Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

Unreal view and relaxing time. Easy to locate and puppy friendly. Easy place to clear your mind, get away from the rat race, and reset. Safe for solo travelers!

2 nights at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

We chose to tent camp at dos Rios and had a great experience! The grounds were beautiful! It was a little less private than we expected however we were lucky and there were not many people present on the nights we chose to camp. Bathrooms were present and available but were a little dirty but this also wasn’t a huge deal to us. Overall we will be back and enjoyed our time!

1 night at Hill Country Nature Retreat

It was nice and cute, the shower got super hot which is nice. The trail was fun ☺️
