CampEZ in SxSAustinTX

Once owned by locally  famous (at the time) D.G. Burrow
who was a  performing Country and Western musician here in Austin TX. 
Our 'campground/farmette' is about 2 acres (inside the city limits!), on a creek, kind of woodsy, and next to a pretty vast parkland greenbelt.
Recent flooding made quite a mess but it's still pleasant here. 
Several friendly and permanent residents and farm animals.

Creek-side private campground hideaway available. This is a CAMPGROUND: NO RV, ROOM, BED, INVOLVED - BRING A TENT AND GEAR FOR COMFORT (check my other listings for an RV stay). This a "want to camp" campground. If you "need to camp" due to financial or other reasons, Camp EZ will likely not be a good fit for you. Not suitable for very young children . Please include your child  in your count. Campfires in designated area only with permission (burn ban sometimes). Bring firewood.

Community vibe 'round here; everyone is expected to be respectful of one another and clean up after themselves "leave no trace" style. One week maximum stay.

Bring a tent and gear needed to be comfortable. 2 private hot outdoor showers, rustic kitchen and 2 charming compost priveys included. Wood fired sauna available. Visitors are expected to clean up after themselves especially in the kitchen, showers, restroom and, of course, your campsite. Trash and recycle containers are around or, better yet, pack it out!  Campfires in designated area only with permission (burn ban sometimes). Bring firewood. 

We are a 2 acre community on a secret and secluded little street 5 miles due South of the capitol of TX and even closer (2.5) to the very hip SoCo area (Continental Club, Jo's Coffee, Guero's Taco Bar, El Mercado and lots more). I have 3 cats, 11 chickens,  2 little donkeys and 6 sweet mini goats here at my little and funky 'farmette' right on Williamson Creek (sometimes flowing and not really swimmable) and next to a huge wooded greenbelt with a quiet and unused nature trail. This is not a KOA or a state park. This is a home campground. It's kind of rustic and we like it that way. You may see a roach, ant or cricket and you may also see a deer, fox or coyote. We are busy and not always able to visit for long. Lots of remodeling and flood related cleanup chaos here but also lots of pretty and secluded nature. Short walk to bus stop and historic Sagebrush HonkyTonk and Austin Bergstrom Airport is 9 easy highway miles away. Rustic outdoor shower/kitchen/privy. BYOTent. No wild or excessive partying here please and please remember: no smoking :)  WE NOW HAVE A COVERED PING-PONG PLAYING AREA AND BADMINTON TOO!​

Other details to note:
Street parking. Camping is a very short walk from parking lot. We have carts to tote your gear if needed.  Sorry, this campground is not set up to be able to park next to your site. We do not supply towels, toiletries, tents or bedding. 
Camp fire in designated fire pits only with approval. BYO Firewood. NO GENERATORS OR RECORDED MUSIC. Quiet time: 9PM-9AM. Please be mindful of your neighbors.

Happy Horse Camp & RV Getaway

GET AWAY without going FAR AWAY! Feels like the middle of nowhere, but it's only 25 miles to downtown Austin and 15 miles to the charming little town of Bastrop with its eateries, shops and historic buildings. Spend quiet nights in the country listening to the coyotes howl and the owls hoot. Hike the nearby Roughs (trailhead is 2 miles away) or book a river canoe or kayak trip with one of the local outfitters. Bring the family and have a weekend event under the trees and covered shade of our Pony Pavilion!

Hollis and her wonderful voice, great stories and powerful ukuleles now offer LIVE MUSIC by your very own campfire, for your private enjoyment. (See the EXTRAS category to book a $20/45 minute/weather-permitting show, or a 1-hour Ukulele lesson, or just get with Hollis when you show up at camp) Enjoy the park trails, the Happy Horse on-site Scavenger Hunt, the delightful maze of campground trails (on your bikes!) and the peace and quiet!

Happy Horse Hotel is on 22 acres conveniently located between Austin and Bastrop in the Pope Bend of the Colorado River. LCRA's fabulous McKinney Roughs Nature Park is 2 miles up the road, adjacent to the Hyatt Lost Pines Resort.

The camp area is 9 secluded, fenced and wooded acres laced with all-dirt flat biking and walking trails on our property.  We encourage you to bring your bicycles along.  The bird watching is great!

The campground is on 18 acres and the sunset was one of my favorite parts. 

Hollis & the Happy Horse Band play for the CycleEast bicycle club on a lovely spring night in the country.

King and 2 twin beds, plus table that seats 4.  Outhouse is 30 ft from front porch,
and enclosed but open to the sky hot water shower is around behind the bungalow.

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.

Hill Country Heaven

Our property was part of the original Oneil homestead. The Oneil family settled the area. In fact, their old Model T used to sit in our meadow. There is a spring fed creek which flows into the pond. Learn more about this land:We have ample areas on our ten acres to pitch your tent, with the best areas being by the pond and meadow below the house. These are all an easy walk from the main house. The pond is great to swim in, when full (a seasonal thing depending on how much rain we have had) and there are fantastic views, and lots of wildlife . And the star gazing is unmatched! There is a picnic table, grill and porch swing down by the pond where you camp. There is so much to do around Dripping Springs, including Perdenales State Park,  great swimming, breweries, wineries and distilleries, as well as great shopping.  You will have all the privacy and solitude you could want as well while camping. While firewood is not provided per se, it essentially is, as there is plenty around to be picked up with minimal effort.  

Gathering wood for the fire. You'll find plenty on the land.

Perfect place to relax next to the fire and stare up at the stars.

Damn good food trucks back on US Highway 290 in Dripping Springs. 

Rancho Relaxo

Purchased this slice of heaven 2 years ago with intentions of making it a space for ourselves and community. We like to imagine, create from recycled materials, and we enjoy getting our hands dirty planting trees and in the garden. Chickens are not only our favorite form of entertainment but their eggs taste great in our breakfast tacos!! The sunsets out here can be pretty amazing and being so close (less than a mile) to the Colorado River we sometimes get to see the sunset on a paddle down the river. Learn more about this land:Tent, and car camp among some shade. RV plug in located by the garage. Plenty of trees to sleep in your hammock. There is a communal chimney, picnic table, outdoor shower and bathroom. The colorado river is less than a mile away from camp with flushing toilets, volley ball courts, kiddie park, and boat ramp. Lots of folks paddle and fish the colorado river. We have chickens on the property so plenty of entertainment right there.

Quirky, fun and unique. In other words, we love it!
