Johnny Yurts

When we first bought this land in 2021, we had a vision to create a place where we would share our land and let guests experience the beauty of the Texas hill country. Our goal was to have a comfortable place to stay while being close to downtown Johnson City and the Texas 290 wine trail.

Only a year later, we're thrilled to open Johnny Yurts. We've already created a lot of amazing memories ourselves and have enjoyed hearing stories and seeing pictures from our guests as well.

We're so happy you found us and are looking forward to hearing about your amazing stay!

Lucky Arrow Retreat

Lucky Arrow Retreat sits on 15 acres on Bell Springs Road in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. On the outskirts of scenic Dripping Springs - home to Sam Beam of Iron & Wine and short drive from the Austin of Willie and Stevie Ray - Lucky Arrow Retreat is the perfect place to feel the music of Texas. The occasional Apache artifact still turns up beneath the numerous live oaks that provide ample shade at Lucky Arrow Retreat.

Magical Lakefront Retreat Property

*For the 2024 Solar Eclipse, we are only renting our entire 8 accommodation property all together, not just 1 accommodation. If you have a large group, please send an inquiry - Thanks! Just featured on CBS's show "STAYCATION!" Enchantment and tranquility embody our Whimsical Lakeside Romantic Retreat property nestled in the hill country on Lake Travis, just outside of Austin, TX. This magical space is the perfect backdrop for a variety of special events, including weddings, corporate retreats, yoga and mindfulness retreats, reunions, birthdays, girl's weekends and bachelorette parties, & many other special occasions. 7 total accommodations starring a Luxury Straw Bale Villa, 3 Eco-Cabins, a Cottage, and 2 Unique Safari Tents.

Our main house, 'La Casa de Joy,' is a stunning luxury straw bale villa (once featured on HGTV) that is truly the perfect gathering space for a variety of special occasions and memorable events. Originally built by an artist & healer, her creative intention and style is felt throughout the entire property.

Living Waters is blessed with an abundance of nature, including deer, birds, butterflies, crickets, hummingbirds, & more. You may wake up to the deer sleeping just outside your accommodation. 

Indulge you and your group by taking advantage of our on-site private yoga, massage, personal training, and facial services, and kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddle board rentals. We recommend local activities such as a wine tasting at Stone House Vineyard (walking distance), a swim/picnic at Krause Springs spring-fed pool, or an eco-adventure at Cypress Valley Canopy Tours.

This unique property is a tranquil and rejuvenating respite in the hill country on Lake Travis, therefore it's not ideal for loud parties. We love animals, but we are a non-pet-accommodating property due to the abundant wildlife present.  We look forward to making memories with you....

Seed of Life in Hill Country Texas

If you are booking for the Eclipse, we are hosting an event for that weekend and have a minimum 3 night stay. 
WHEN YOU REQUEST - YOU MUST CONFIRM YOU INNERSTAND THIS IS A STRICT VEGETARIAN - Health - PEACE SANCTUARY- CHURCH PROPERTY. What you eat or do inside your vehicle is your business not ours, but we ask that in any communal space, including  on BBQs and campfires that no meat be cooked or consumed please. Thank you for honoring our mission.

PETS MUST BE LEASHED for their own safety. There is ample wildlife here: We have deer that pass through, feral hogs, an armadillo, frogs, turtles, centipedes, lizards, scorpions and snakes (some are poisonous!).

The Seed of Life is an Essene Retreat. Our ministry is based on the Gospel of Peace and teachings of Yashua Hamashiach (Yeshua Ha Mashiakh – aka Christ Jesus the Nazarene). Our goal is to provide a sanctuary focused on Healthy Living, Recovery, Music, Praise, Animal Stewardship, Gardening, Zero-Point and Alternative Energy and Self Sufficiency. Recovery and Serenity in the Heart of the Austin - Texas Hill Country Wine Trail.

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A LONGER PLACE TO SETTLE as we welcome WWOOF arrangements and longer-stay discounts.  We welcome healers of all manners here to join in our quest to create Cosmic Christ Consciousness and Heaven on Earth.

💗 We follow the Terrain Theory, preventative approach to the well-being of our “Living Water” body temple.

☀️ We are building a lifestyle-based intentional eco-community in alignment with vegan, vegetarian and holistic practices.

🏗️ Our unrestricted land allows us to bring innovative architecture and permaculture practices into reality.

Our Sanctuary includes a young garden and organic orchard. The Eye of the Storm is a spiral labyrinth, inspired in part by the giant spiral at Calico Basin in Red Rock National Conservation Area just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. It is the featured part of a small Peace Garden and the larger Seed of Life intentional Essene community retreat center. At the center of the 32 foot wide limestone labyrinth are Nikola Tesla inspired coiled copper pipes topped with double terminated crystals to create a positive energy vortex. The labyrinth was installed in the Summer of 2022 and officially opened on International Peace Day 2022. It is listed on the World Wide Labyrinth Locator.

Numerous Energy Vortices connect underground within a rough triangular region between Austin, San Antonio and Llano, Texas. One of the largest outcroppings is called Enchanted Rock, a massive pink granite dome rising above Central Texas. The vortex energy spreads out south and eastwards from this special State protected Natural Area. The energy flows through telluric Ley Lines that cross over the Edwards Aquafer – one of the most prolific aquifers in the world – which spouts countless healing springs. At the very center of this energy vortex area lies the Texas Wine Trail between Johnson City and Fredericksburg. The Seed of Life Sanctuary is along this highway and at the VERY center of this zone.

Gather for sacred ceremony on our Main Stage or in Ceremonial Ground on a magnificent splay of Limestone and Crystal-Rich granite. This outcropping is alongside a year-round spring-fed creek. Underneath the massive, ancient lava magma lava flow granite river rocks are large crystals, quartz, topaz and tourmaline. Standing barefoot on the rock you can feel the energy emanating upward.

Our tent and sleeping gear is the only thing we had to bring - everything else is so nicely set up.
