A Frame Cabin
Thanks
First time using Hipcamp - was pretty excited about camping close to the F1 races with my son. Brought the electric bikes to make the short distance to COTA. Unfortunately it was not to be- the owner apparently uses multiple platforms to book his place and the calendars did not align- they over booked and we lost. He sent a message the day before but we didn't notice until we arrived and could not get in. Andrew offered us to camp in our car or in a tent if we had one- on their property- but really? I booked a cabin with a bed. We ended up paying to stay at a hotel 40 minutes away, and then since we had to drive now instead of bike, another $120 in parking not to mention the 4 hours or more in traffic every day to get to the track. Andrew refunded immediately but the theres a fee that Hipcamp charges that if your refunded you wont get back. This thing is a good idea and we were super excited- but in the end I got to spend an additional $350 in hotel and parking snd some awesome Austin driving time every morning and evening. I suggest you move past the “this is cool, lets do this!” And go ahead and make really plans that aren't just dismissed with “Sorry this happened- these things happen, the calendars don't sync up- I know youre already here…..would you like to sleep in your car or go buy a tent?” Thanks but no thanks. Research a solid back up plan if you do though.

Great experience and close to COTA
I highly recommend this campsite! Especially for any events at COTA. Just worked the F1 race this past weekend and not only was this spot close to the track, but it missed most of the event traffic when getting to the venue. On top of everything, the spot is absolutely adorable and the property manager, Jeffrey, was so sweet and attentive! Bonus points, Jeffrey has the most adorable dog that is often spotted around the property. We will definitely be back! 🥰

A Frame Cabin
Perfect getaway outside of Austin
The A Frame Cabin was the perfect little outdoor getaway for us! It had strong and good A/C in the unit, and the designated outdoor area was perfect. There was issues with the water system, but the groundskeeper, Jeffrey, was quick to act and give us updates. You are in the outdoors, so definitely don't recommend bringing food into the cabin as ants will find their way in. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back! Pepper was an adorable pup to have on the land as well. The stars are incredible at night as well ✨️

A Frame Cabin
First camping trip
Upon arriving I did have mixed feeling about this place. I believed it might have more space without a lot bushes, but it made me remember how it was to live at the ranch. I quickly humbled myself and began enjoying my stay, Jeff the ground keeper was very accommodating and quick to respond to any question, concern, or problem we came to have. Andrew and Jeff also were able to find room for us as Hip camp accidentally double booked one of their cabins. The 5 days we were there, it was the most quiet and calming experience I have ever experienced, shower was refreshing; cold but very refreshing (makes you not take for granted what you have at home). Thank you Andrew and Jeff for hosting us and reminding me of back home, it was quite the experience and do highly recommend it

Check in was 3:00pm, by 5:30pm there was still no working electricity. Property was not well maintained as the pictures showed. Tall grass. Random boots and belongings on sitting chairs where we reserved. Overall, poorly presented and misleading. Not communicated before we arrived
