Wonderful spot
So awesome! I don’t even know where to start! We booked this on a whim so that we could be in the path of totality for the 2024 solar eclipse. We had a couple of other campsites we had booked that canceled on us (because they all wanted to make more money during this event). I booked this and reached out to Sheri to confirm that she would indeed keep our booking. She responded right away and was very friendly and promised that she would never do such a thing. We flew to Texas and hoped for the best. Sheri was very good about giving us information on how to find them and letting us check in early. We got to our site and met her husband Johnnie who let us have our pick of any of the available sites. He was very friendly and spent a lot of time with us telling us of each location’s amenities. Once we picked our site, he came back to check on us. There was a compostable toilet in our site which was very convenient, I was a little worried about all of the bugs etc., but they did a great job of keeping it clean for us. That’s a pretty gross job, and they didn’t seem to mind! Everyone we met there was so sweet, and we had a great time watching the eclipse with everybody else staying at the campsite. They let us stay late on our checkout day since they had no one else coming in, and they came to say goodbye and see us out when we were ready to leave. Sheri even gave me a hug! I would definitely go back here. Peaceful, beautiful, and just so very welcoming.

What a great place to stay! The hosts are friendly and very helpful. Their place is so close to many great hill country wineries and natural pools. Our site came with a fire ring, grill, table, and site specific toilet. They also have a hot tub on the property which was a nice surprise. Would definitely recommend to stay here.
