1 night at Hill Country Micro-Farm Glamping

We really enjoyed our stay! Just a few notes for future guests: the yurts are located in the owners’ backyard, so there isn’t a ton of privacy, and the bathroom doors don’t fully close since they don’t lock. The property has lots of fun animals, which adds to the charm, though a few did get out during our visit (a chicken, the dog, and even the pig) — a little stressful since we had our own dogs with us, but admittedly, waking up to a rogue pig was pretty thrilling. Last note, the heater in yurt 4 doesn’t work. 7/10

What a beautiful property! Kasey was so nice and showed us around, made sure we had plenty of wood, and made us feel right at home. The stars were bright and the tent was very comfortable!

Weekend Trip to Ranch 3232

Great time just my dog and I in the Apache tent. The tent was very clean, the bed very comfortable and the best part was the little AC unit to keep things cool. I was actually the only one in the campground for the weekend. Nice to have the place to myself. Because it was August and close to the start of school the grounds were a little overgrown BUT clean!! I loved the fact they had little doggie poop bags around the campground that you could use. I did wake up on the second day without water to the campgrounds. But Ken was on top of it reaching out to me and providing bottles and gallons of water. Honestly, it wasn’t that big a deal…I mean it is a campground 😉 The best part was that the campground is less than 3 miles from Pedernales Falls State Park. It was nice to get able to go there and hike and swim, then get back to campground without a long drive. Overall, I will definitely be booking another stay there. Maybe when it’s not so hot!

Lovely stay at the yurt, we were lucky enough to get to watch an epic Texas lightning show from the comfort of the deck. Directions were clear and easy to find even in the dark. Bring lots of firewood (no collecting on site) and some instruments and enjoy the Hill Country ambience.
