2 nights at B2 Hideaway

Perfect small, quiet campground. Blake was extremely responsive to my messages. Facility was just as described and exceeded our expectations!

Weekend Trip to 4 Oaks RV Camp

This was a lovely camp and very convenient on the weekend when the other camp grounds were full. It had a nice layout and made it easy to go back and forth to the river. The camp owners were very lovely as well. Five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Weekend Trip to Best View In Leander

Beautiful property at the top of a steep hill! My dogs and I had a great time.

2 nights at 3 Dry Wells Ranch

Our stay at Hillside Live Oak Grove was incredible. William was such a kind and helpful host super communicative, always quick to respond, and made us feel very welcome. The property itself is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. Our campsite was private, quiet, and felt far from everything, perfect for disconnecting and enjoying nature. There’s also a great fire ring where we made a lovely campfire under the stars 🔥🌌 We’d 100% recommend this spot to anyone looking for a calm and scenic place to camp. We truly loved it and can’t wait to come back!

2 nights at Rough Hollow Ranch

Carl was an absolute pleasure to work with The ranch property is beautiful and quiet. The cabin was fully functional, clean, and had everything we needed. The property is only 20-25 minutes from Pedernales Falls state park, so it was a wonderful place to stay in between hikes over the weekend. Would recommend and planning on future stays!

Weekend Trip to Best View In Leander

Peaceful spot at the top of a hill. Great for Sunset views and a quiet night. Our dogs were safe and comfortable off leash. The solo stove and clean port-o-potty were very much appreciated. Our host was friendly and responded quickly. We would stay there again.

Weekend Trip to 3 Dry Wells Ranch

Great spot that had no other camp spots nearby. Pretty views overlooking hills and the spot for tents was nicely done with easy dirt and no rock.

Weekend Trip to 3 Dry Wells Ranch

What a wonderful place!! Quiet and peaceful. Definitely coming back! Host was fantastic! Extra large fire ring and the most beautiful old live oak. Walking trails were great.

1 night at 3 Dry Wells Ranch

Me and my two dachshunds had a great time, amazing view’s and really felt really safe, hosts were super friendly. Will definitely be coming back with my family.

Weekend Trip to Best View In Leander

Darren's land was ideal for us. It was very quiet and pretty. Nothing fancy, just a picnic table, metal fire pit and a very clean porta-potty. It was also close to Balcones National Wildlife Refuge which is the reason we were in this area. The ground is very lumpy, so not a good option for tent campers. As we have a truck pop-up camper, that wasn't an issue for us. We would definitely stay here again.

Weekend Trip to 3 Dry Wells Ranch

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!

B2 Hideaway

16 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Canyon Lake, TX

The lake was intended to serve primarily as a reservoir for the city of San Antonio, but it had the secondary effect of transforming the economy of Comal County. Even before the lake was filled, construction had begun on dozens of new subdivisions along the 60-mile lakefront and in the hills around it. By the mid-1980s, more than 80 new neighborhoods had been built, and the little ranching communities of Sattler and Startzville had become thriving commercial centers serving tourists from nearby Austin and San Antonio. The full-time population of the lake area was estimated at 12-16,000, and many thousands more were in the area on weekends.

This place is all about the view. You're on top of a hill looking south so you get awesome sunrises and sunsets! It's so quiet out here and there is pretty much always a breeze, so even in summer it's nice. You have full run of the 6 acres on the North side of the road (the hill). There is another 16 acres on the South side of the road that is open during business hours. Down a 1/4 mile driveway is a large shop where we run our business and build cabins & tiny homes. We can give you a tour and fill any water containers you have. At the bottom of the property is a creek bed. Lots of hiking options and opportunities to see road runners, jack rabbits and deer. Occasionally there is a fox.
