Loving Heart Retreats is a relaxing and beautiful glamping retreat situated on over 25 acres of lush trees and hillside views, and just 12 minutes outside of Marble Falls. Enjoy the scenic vistas from the comfort of a spacious private deck, and soak in the beautiful rolling hills of Marble Falls. Explore the walking trails and enjoy being wrapped in nature and the calming sounds of songbirds. Relax and enjoy the beautiful sunset by the on-site pond. Our authentic safari tent, sourced directly from South Africa, sits on a beautiful and spacious deck overlooking the hill country. Lounge outside and enjoy a coffee or evening beverage, and take in the stunning views. Or relax on the playful hammock, built directly into the platform. In the evenings, Edison string lights create a relaxed ambiance. Inside, find the comforts of a hotel room inside the safari tent. Plunge into a peaceful night’s sleep in the cozy king-sized bed with comfy bedding and linens. An additional full-sized air mattress is available for extra guests. The living space also includes a sitting area and the conveniences of a counter-height refrigerator (with freezer shelf), microwave, and coffeemaker. A standing telescope and tripod provide an opportunity to explore the endless night sky, free of light pollution far away from the city. Color-changing interior mood lighting can be controlled via remote. Your attached, personal bathroom includes a marble-top double sink vanity, toilet, and a private clawfoot tub and attached shower. Enjoy the plush set of towels. Since we have developed a carefully placed water and septic system in an intimate and remote retreat, we ask that our guests help us preserve the environment by moderating use of water.

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....

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
