A beautiful oak grove has been cleared and mulched with plenty of space for tents and a wonderful picnic table for camper use.

Hill Country Glamping Photo Safari

3 sites · Lodging5 acres · Kempner, TX
Lost Horizon Texas is an exclusive wildlife-oriented glamping retreat in the Texas hill country. The ranch is home to 18 species of free-roaming exotic animals and a healthy population of native Texas fauna. Guests also enjoy private access to some of the best fly fishing and water quality on the Lampasas River. With just two suites, Lost Horizon Texas maintains a private, exclusive, and off-the-beaten-path feel. Each accommodation is perched upon its private secluded valley plateau with exceptional tree-top views 450ft away and hidden from the other. Comfort, peace, and connection with land were carefully considered in the design of both "The Hideout" and "The Satao". You feel this place and will never forget it. Each one includes everything you would expect, a kitchen, an adjacent dedicated private photo blind a safe distance from the watering hole and feeder in the valley below, a rock fire pit & grill, comfortable outdoor chairs, and a large custom soaking tub. Each suite also boasts something unique adding to the sense of being somewhere very special. insta: @losthorizontx 5 private acres within a 1700-acre exotic wildlife sanctuary and dispersed community
