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.

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.

Peaceful, Primitive Campsite on Quiet Family Land
Escape the city and unwind on our private Texas homestead, a serene spot where you can pitch your tent beneath beautiful oak trees under wide, starry skies. This is true primitive camping: no hookups, no frills—just space to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the sounds of nature.
You may wake to the clucking of chickens, spot curious barn cats roaming through camp, and often see deer moving quietly across the land at dawn and dusk. The property is peaceful and quiet, with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the surrounding Hill Country scenery.
Families are welcome, and kids love watching the animals and exploring under the oaks. While it feels like you are away from it all, town, groceries, and gas are only about a 15-minute drive, making it easy to grab supplies or head out for a meal.
Come camp simply, breathe deeply, and experience a laid-back country stay on our land.

My husband and I have built 100% of our homestead ourselves, with no hired help and we try to use as many recycled materials as possible. We utilize some solar power and capture 100% of our water from the rain, for an eco friendly experience. In addition to our rentals, we also built and run a small event/retreat center where folks host retreats, weddings, workshops, and more!

Our stay in the safari tent was really nice. Exactly as pictured and described! The setup was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed for a camping trip without the hassle of packing heavy gear. The bathroom with the powered rooftop was such a great bonus and made the experience even better. We loved the balance of being close to nature while still having all the little comforts covered.

Lost horizon was a great experience for us. I’m in my 40’s and we enjoy camping but I am not into communal living or multiple units close together. This offered the seclusion we wanted and a fair price. You will need a 4x4 vehicle or at least a full size suv to get down the last stretch of road to the sites. Everything else is just as noted on the site and within the website for the property. Don’t hesitate to book!

We had a wonderful time staying at Lost Horizon with our two pups! We enjoyed the quiet and serene surroundings, saw mule deer and antelopes, and felt 100% rejuvenated and recharged. Jeremy and Stacie were kind and communicative hosts. I would recommend Lost Horizon to anyone looking for a getaway from urban living.

Wonderful location, beautiful view, peaceful day and night. During our stay the area was hit by historical flooding. Despite this situation being outside of Laura's control, she constantly provided updates regarding weather, the restoration of power, and kept us apprised of road conditions and provided us the best window of time to make our exit and return to home. Fortunately, given the location, we were at an elevation that ensured our safety and piece of mind. I highly recommend a stay at this property and we will definitely be back. P.S. - Note - Laura at Loving Heart Retreats even provided a place to stay at the retreat to a gentleman that was stuck on the mountain due to flooding. This furthers my confidence that this truly is a loving heart operation! Thanks for everything, Laura.
