Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

Fantastic camping spot! We booked out both of the river spots so that we had more room and privacy. It was perfect! The walk up to the bath house wasn’t bad at all. Facilities were nice and clean and cared for. We didn’t use the WiFi. The sink and electric were very conveniently located. There was an issue with the outlets, but the hosts were super quick to respond and got us set up with alternate electricity sites in the meantime. Incredibly accommodating. Being next to the water was perfect! The dogs loved it. Plenty of flat spots for tents and parking. Beautiful site. I’ve camped quite a bit within about a 3 hour radius of Austin, and this has been the best! Loved it

Weekend Trip to Canyon Lakeview Resort

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION Right by the lake! Sand tennis court, huge swimming pool, multiple cooking standing pits, clean showers and restrooms. Bring your kayaks, canoes, paddle boards and bikes. Along with everything you use for camping. Strict about keeping our fur babies on a leach. Be careful with deer the last 2-3 miles before arriving.

1 night at Hill Country Nature Retreat

Very relaxing and peaceful stay! It was a nice change from the bustling cities of Austin and San Antonio. My family was able to reconnect without electronics for an evening. Beautiful view amidst the rain.

2 nights at Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Me and my buddy camped out in a tent on the land. For starters I’ve never seen so many deer in one place. We pulled up after dark our second night and was greeted by at least 50 deer such a beautiful sight. Adventured up the creek bare foot and enjoyed the sparrows dancing in the sky. Secure location, clean restrooms, and the outdoor showers were and amazing experience (wash yourself fast lol) the hot water doesn’t last very long when it’s a little colder outside but I’m sure in the summer weather the shower is amazing. I will be booking again in the future.

This place is beautiful and the owners are very kind it had everything we needed a/c restrooms and nice showers, charging stations came in handy sense we stayed 4 days! The river is so clear and beautiful my girlfriend found so many pretty rocks around. The hills in the back ground was a refreshing view to wake Up with, so many deer running around I had so much fun

Weekend Trip to Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

It was such a fun experience staying at Boulderdash! We had our 3 kids, ages 2,4,8 and they all had something fun to do. We enjoyed the river, riding our bikes around our tent site, hiking at hill country state park, and exploring the property. Beautiful views from the grilling area, got to see some hummingbirds right next to us. Overall lovely time.

This place is a hidden gem! I almost don’t want to let the secret out but the hosts are awesome and the grounds are amazing! You get more than you expect and the campsites are so huge! The pictures don’t do this place justice. Sparrow bend will be our getaway spot. Had to leave early but were sad to go. We will definitely be back! Thank you Angela!

2 nights at Boulderdash Cabin & Camping

We stayed here over Spring Break and had the best time! My kids said they wanted to stay forever, they said it was dreamy to have had the “biggest backyard in the world” The house it it cute and cozy, exactly like you can see in the pictures. Even though the river water was low, my kids were able to play there and we all made wonderful memories.

3 nights at Sparrow Bend River Retreat

We had a great time :) We loved that you can rent tubes and stuff which provided for something for us to do. The spot is beautiful and the water is just a quick walk away. We had a rough go during our stay though, with our neighbors in a cabin not abiding by the quiet time of 10pm, so we did not sleep. The 2nd night of our stay, there was a LOUD fight, loaded with profanity in the middle of the night coming from the same cabin. They also left their string lights on the entire night which beamed right into our camper windows :) We were able to commiserate with our RV neighbors (haha) who were kept up as well. There were also lots of dogs barking and howling nearby. I was surprised with how small our parking area was, and how close it is to the cabin. In addition, when we arrived someone from the cabin was parked very close to our RV space, infringing on our zone quite a bit until they moved the car. This spot may be better for the cabins & less so for campers in tents and Rv's.

Sparrow Bend is a hidden gem! Angela was an amazing host and the grounds were immaculate. The shower house and toilets were well kept and easily accessible. Riverfront 3 is the closest spot to the river and an absolutely stunning view. There’s no natural shade at this spot so if you come in the heat of summer, bring your own shade! We made use of the firewood that was available, that was very convenient. The sight is pet friendly and we enjoyed being in the river with our two dogs. Will definitely be back!

2 nights at Sparrow Bend River Retreat

We enjoyed our RV slot 2. Our son and family enjoyed a tent site near the river. The kids had a great time playing in the river. It was a relaxing atmosphere.

2 nights at Sparrow Bend River Retreat

Our family tent camped at site 1 near the water. We have been here before and we were happy to return! We appreciate how quick the host is to respond to any questions. The kids had fun in the water. The restrooms and property were clean and well maintained. We hope to be back again soon!
