The boats are meant for one but there's just enough room for a friend (provided it's a dog).

Weekend Trip to Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

Quiet and secluded with access to the Colorado River for tubing, kayaking and fishing

Weekend Trip to Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

We had such a great time staying here for the weekend. Bridget was so friendly and helpful and she gave us great tips for fishing. Site 2 was perfect ! Great weekend getaway with the kids.

Weekend Trip to Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

One of the best out there. Bridget was fast to respond and really cares about the guest experience. She went above and beyond a few times unprompted. The sites were great and spaced well apart. Easy drive from Austin. Kayaks available for rent and we took them out to go fishing. Beautiful land that is well taken care of. Plenty of details that show that the property owners care - from the fire pits to the showers to the layout of the sites - all very well thought out. Our family had a wonderful time. One note - you can hear the train horns at night, which kept us up the first night. They didn’t seem to bother us as much the second night. Bring earbuds if you’re sensitive to that. We’ll be back. Thanks again!

Beautiful campsite and well taken care of by our host Bridget! It is a peaceful location and the river access is pristine. The meadow that the campsite is located in during the spring time is beautiful.

Beautiful river side camp! The hosts were great!

1 night at CAMP JOY - RV / TENTS CALDWELL, TX

We loved staying at Camp Joy! The land was beautiful, the bathroom was clean and the shower was really nice. The view of the water from our tent was so beautiful and it was so peaceful. There is some road noise but it wasn't overbearing. An abundance of firewood was already provided at each campsite as well which was great! We did have a puppy come visit us that wandered onto the campsite from across the street. We didn't mind and he was super friendly. We actually really enjoyed the little guy, haha. We also saw the cat Duchess that lives on the property who was sweet as well. Overall it was a trip full of animals and beautiful views. Will definitely want to come again!

Weekend Trip to Matt B.’s Land Treehouse!!

Had a blast, everything was as advertised. Would go again for sure.

Weekend Trip to Matt B.’s Land Treehouse!!

Our family loved the privacy, creek, pizza oven area and large stones around the firepit. The cows were so cute and the family was helpful in bringing some extra firewood for us. We definitely look forward to coming back again! There is a bit of a slope down to the creek but the rope to climb back up was especially helpful for our son.

3 nights at Wild and Boujee Ranch

This was a nice spot with lots of open spaces, both up by the RV site and down by the river. We were close to Bastrop State Park and downtown Bastrop for shopping and restaurants. The new pad sites overlooked the river below. Please note that there are electrical hookups at the pads but water and sewer are by the front entrance of the property.

3 nights at Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

Beautiful spot!! We stayed 2 nights and had a blast! Right next to the river. Very clean amenities. Hot water! Bridget is awesome! Went out of her way to make our stay that much more. I highly recommend staying here!

3 nights at Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

Really beautiful site. The river was great for fishing and paddle boarding. The kids had a blast. The bath house was clean and convenient. Bridget was responsive and helpful. The only small negative was noise at night (train, dogs barking); it isn’t terrible but detracts from the beautiful birds in the morning.

Weekend Trip to Wild and Boujee Ranch

Amazing camping grounds. It’s very close to the water where you can picnic, fish, and enjoy the waters. I’d definitely come back on a cooler day!

2 nights at Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

Beautiful and clean camping site, host is very responsive and nice. Everything was perfect!!

5 nights at Wild and Boujee Ranch

I loved the site. Just a short walk down the steps to the river. Thank you Paige for the kayak paddle. Cute spot at the river to put the kayak in, Not a big rivers edge if a lot of people are there at the same time but we enjoyed it as we were there all by ourselves. This would definitely be a GREAT place for a group. Again, Thank you Paige.

2 nights at Matt B.’s Land Treehouse!!

Fun campsite perched atop a clean spring fed creek. Host was communicative and helpful. Amenities not often found at other spots made the trip very fun and memorable for us.

2 nights at Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

Wonderful spot! TY Bridget! You are a great host! Will be return campers for yrs to come.

Weekend Trip to Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

We loved camping here, beautiful scenery and very peaceful. Very clean restroom and showers.

Weekend Trip to Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

The land is really nice for a campground. Only a few sites total on seemingly a few acres. We had the river site which was really nice, great views, etc. Fire pit is giant, picnic table was nice. Host worked hard to fix an electrical box for us within the first hour or so of us arriving. Host was very nice, responsive, and even offered us late check out. Bathroom and shower was clean and not bad at all for a campground- has lights and a sink, hot water, etc. They even have a hose to wash belongings. Cons: River isn’t all that clean to go in, refund policy is a bit extreme. Perhaps River flow was just out of season. Also, if you don’t have a group of 4-6, the cost does seem a hair high to be tent camping. Still it met our needs! Still, we will probably return!

Weekend Trip to Colorado RiverBend Retreat #CRBR

This is a great location for fishing, rafting/boating, or just relaxing by the river. The other sites are spread out enough that even when it was full the weekend we were there, you still feel a sense of privacy. The bath house is an extra benefit with two showers and a clean/well kept toilet, with sinks for washing up. Bridget goes the extra mile to ensure the guests are taken care of. When the guests at the b&b shack up the hill were blasting music after night fall, Bridget responded quickly to our request for them to turn down the volume. Very much appreciated that!
