2 nights at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

We had an incredible stay in the Airstream! The location is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views that made our trip unforgettable. The staff was exceptionally friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. This gem of a place exceeded our expectations, and we’re already looking forward to returning. Thank you for an amazing experience!

1 night at Low Gear Farmstead

It was my first time camping with my dad and 2 dogs we loved seeing the views and the wildlife. After we arrived we were greeted by the owner and she had told us were to go and we sat our stuff up and we went to the town and got some food to make. When we came back and had one of there cattle dogs stand guard outside our tent all night watching over them he greeted us and our dogs early morning.

2 nights at North Star Cove

What a great place to stay! We really enjoyed our two night stay to watch storms, sunsets, and stars

Weekend Trip to 500 Waves on the Llano River

We stayed at a campsite with electric RV hookups and had a fantastic experience! The site was well-maintained, peaceful, and had great access to the beautiful Llano River—perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature. It was the ideal spot for our first RV trip. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a scenic and convenient camping location!

1 night at Starlit Flat on the 1873 Ranch

What a perfect spot!! We saw so much wildlife and thought it was super quiet!! Great location and easy to get to both Fredericksburg and enchanted rock and like others said, potty was CLEAN!!!

Weekend Trip to Low Gear Farmstead

We loved our campsite at Low Gear Farmstead, it was very easy to find given the instruction and we were very pleased when we rolled up and saw our campsite! It’s spacious and right next to a river / stream that we spent most of our weekend swimming and tubing in. The host sold generous amounts of affordable firewood and yes we did go see the goats, it was very worth it. The best part was our surprise guest, Bjorn the dog who was very friendly and kept us company throughout our stay, and was a joy to have along with us. The worst part was leaving and seeing him chase behind after us 🥺 Highly recommend camping here, we got to do everything we wanted to and more! Logan the host is very responsive and attentive too, and fun to talk with. I want to go back already!

Weekend Trip to Hill Country Escape

Chris’s place is amazing really great people work there.its so out there tons of wildlife and fish too definitely recommend and thanks for letting us stay!!!

Weekend Trip to Angela L'S Land

I recently stayed at Angela's land and had an amazing experience! The vibes were great, and the scenery was absolutely fantastic. The owner was incredibly helpful and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to relax and enjoy nature!

Weekend Trip to Low Gear Farmstead

I absolutely loved my stay and will definitely be coming back soon! The views were amazing, and the river was the perfect spot to cool off and relax. The entire experience was peaceful and grounding, and the hosts truly went above and beyond. I highly recommend the chair massage—10/10, it was the perfect way to unwind. At the end of my stay, I had some unexpected car trouble, and I was met with such kindness and understanding! Logan was incredibly helpful and made a stressful situation feel much more manageable! I’m so grateful for the care and hospitality—this place really is a must visit. Highly recommend!

2 nights at Low Gear Farmstead

It’s a great location. I had a great time. It’s very peaceful. The stream is an added bonus to cool off. Logan and Gear were very helpful. Got to see wildlife and take a tour of their goats. Bjorn was a bonus. This was their dog. I enjoyed his company but they offered to keep him in their home. This was my first solo trip so it was nice to have Bjorn’s company. He kept critters away from the campsite. He accompanied me to the stream, for a short walk and just hung out at the campsite. I had rain one night and Bjorn stayed close by. This is my second trip there and I always feel safe. Will definitely be back.

1 night at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

This is a beautiful camp right on the river. Very fun and very peaceful! The town is super cute also!

Weekend Trip to Hi-Line Resort

Man this was such an awesome experience with surprises that didn't disappoint. We only booked this spot for convenience. Got there and found out that they had their own crappie house....which is free for anyone staying at HiLine. Also, they have boat launcher available. Need a guide? They have local recommendations. It was so serene. We stayed an extra couple of days. Oh and the restaurant King Krabz on the Lake left us desiring more. I'm not sure how they get the crabs so fresh all the way out here, but let me tell you something....everything on the menu is superb. We went there 2 nights and didn't have leftovers. Suzanne and Jim are freaking awesome. Can't wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

Tent camping was super fun! The little camp sight was super quaint with a fire pit, grill, picnic table and chairs. The sunset views were gorgeous, the sky view was even better. The river is just a hop, skip and jump away. Llano and river is beautiful, crisp and cool. Perfect for splashing around 10/10

Weekend Trip to Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

I’ve been on a 3 week road trip and this was the one of the best tent camping site I’ve been to! The drive to the campground was nice and the map was super helpful in getting around. Our host, Tammy, was so kind and friendly! She helped us figure out the bathhouse(s), nearby activities, and where to get gas. The ground was flat and the string lights helped make it more homey. The bathhouse near our site was very clean and a short walk away.

1 night at Dos Rios - Hill Country Adventure

I had a great time here! The grounds are beautiful and well kept. Access to the river was excellent. Bathrooms and showers were clean and orderly. Proximity to town was great to get necessary last minute items. I will be back soon!

1 night at Down Horn Ranch

Don’s place was serene. Lots of privacy, nice designated tent spots that felt very taken care of, while still keeping a sense of camping out in the natural space of that area. All the amenities you need and communicative as well.

Weekend Trip to 500 Waves on the Llano River

Always a fantastic site and host. Thanks again!

Weekend Trip to North Star Cove

The dome at North Star Cove was absolute perfection!! Our family (my husband & our 2 daughters) had an absolute blast and enjoyed getting away & immersing ourselves in nature! The fold out couch in the living room worked great for our 2 elementary aged kids. Plenty of linens and blankets and pillows. The bathroom and shower & kitchen were very nice! Air conditioners worked very well, and there’s a standing fan as well. We built a campfire, stargazed, played horseshoes, made s'mores, used the tree swing, and just had an AMAZING time together as a family! The outhouse bathroom was in great condition as well. The town of Llano was SO cute! We enjoyed the famous Cooper’s BBQ. The drive alone to North Star Cove was just simply gorgeous! We definitely want to return one day, and we highly recommend North Star Cove to anyone wanting to unplug and get away either as a couple or as a family!!! The Llano hill country is good for the soul!

Weekend Trip to Down Horn Ranch

Had a great short tent camping trip at Downhorn Ranch! The sites were nice and private, really appreciated having a bathroom complete with shower, and observing the curious Longhorns made for extra entertainment. The host was quick to respond with any questions we had and we would absolutely come back for more nights under the stars.

Starlit Flat on the 1873 Ranch

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents100 acres · Fredericksburg, TX

A Texas Hill Country ranch with uncrowded “primitive” campsites about 8 miles from Fredericksburg and about 12 miles from Enchanted Rock. There is no running water, no electricity and no WiFi at the campsite. There is a picnic table, some chairs, a fire ring with some firewood and a portable toilet. This site is suited to tent camping, car camping and small RV "dry camping". There is relative privacy, hopefully starry nights and campfire provisions. Guests share a pasture with livestock and wildlife. Weather in all its variations is part of camping. If you are not prepared to deal with whatever the weather may be, you should consider another option. We encourage guests to research this destination before booking, carefully review our cancellation policy, and consider buying travel insurance to protect against unexpected travel disruptions. Weather conditions are not an acceptable reason for a refund or change of reservation for this campsite. Cellular service is limited here. AT&T provides a good signal in this area. HOWEVER **** SPRINT, VERIZON and T-MOBILE may have “VERY POOR” or “NONEXISTENT” cellular signals at this site. We have neighbors, and although the place is relatively large, and we don't anticipate a problem, there is no guarantee that you will not be bothered by some kind of noise. Likewise, we don’t want our neighbors bothered by any noise coming from you. People live out in the country to enjoy separation of space. Please be considerate of others and keep noise to a minimum. Observe quiet time after 9 pm and before 8 am. The country roads in this area are paved and they are excellent for walking, bicycling and driving. There are “cattle guards” in the roadways. Cattle guards are steel pipe obstacles along a road intended to prevent livestock, such as sheep and cattle from passing out of a fenced area. If you book this property you will be able to check yourself in at the property. The specific location and other check in details will be provided to you on the day of your scheduled arrival, and after housekeeping and campsite make-ready is complete. Most any car should be just fine for accessing the campsite, except in the case of very wet weather. Guests are not allowed to use firearms or fireworks on this property.

Redcreek Nature Ranch

4 sitesJunction, TX

The Kothmanns came to Texas from Germany, landing at Matagorda Bay on December 31, 1845, after a three month journey at sea. They spent the remaining winter months in miserable conditions on the coast, finally making their way inland to New Braunfels in April 1846. After a brief time there, they became part of the first wagon train of 120 original settlers to Fredericksburg, arriving on May 8, 1846.Heinrich Conrad Kothmann, born January 31, 1798, died August 27, 1881, and his wife Katherine Pahlman Kothmann, born March 1, 1810, died February 15, 1905, left Hanover, Germany, September 26, 1845. My great-grandfather, Heinrich Friedrich Kothmann, born February 10, 1835, died September 1, 1915, was their oldest son.They were part of the very first founding families of Fredericksburg. Heinrich worked as a cabinet maker and served as the town musician, often playing the violin for money. During some of the most trying times, Friedrich walked barefoot with his father 80 miles to Austin where they found work splitting railroad ties for 25 cents per day. From those earnings, they had to feed and board themselves.The Kothmann family was integrally involved in the early life of Fredericksburg, and with Providential protection, survived wide-spread disease and death. While life in the young town became increasingly more comfortable as time passed, Heinrich was drawn by the desire to own land and raise large numbers of livestock. In 1856, the opportunity to do just that presented itself when he was finally granted 640 acres of land in the Fisher-Miller grant. The original passage he had bought for the family in Germany for $240 had entitled him to this property located west of the Colorado River between the Llano and San Saba Rivers. A strong Indian presence and political and institutional financial problems had prevented the completion of this grant at an earlier date.Holding strong to his dreams of giving his family a new start, he saved his money during the early years in Fredericksburg. With that he was able to buy an additional 640 acres, along with his grant of 640 acres, when the area opened up and the family was able to move to the Willow Creek region in eastern Mason County.Starting over once again as pioneers in the wilderness, this time at the age of 58, Heinrich and Katherine built a new home, raised their children, and helped the older sons get started in the ranching business on their own. After a dozen very difficult years and some unbelievable good fortune, the Kothmanns were now living their dream of raising large numbers of livestock in the fertile Hill Country of Texas. Their burial site on the original family homestead at Art, Texas, seven miles east of Mason on HIghway 29, is designated with a Texas Historical Marker.Their oldest son, Heinrich Friedrich (Fritz) Kothmann, my great-grandfather, became a very successful businessman and rancher. He was appointed the first sheriff of Mason County. He established the Premier Ranch, on the Llano River, raising pure-bred Hereford cattle. The original entry gate to the ranch still stands on the east side of Highway 87 between Mason and Fredericksburg. In the 1870’s he built a large and modern home on the ranch which drew attention from near and far. It is still in use today.Fritz and his brother Dietrich were business partners in a number of various enterprises, including several cattle drives out-of-state. Fritz’s first wife was Sophie Hartwig, born March 16, 1833, died July 24, 1883. Their fifth son was my grandfather, Eli Henry (Lee) Kothmann, born September 10, 1872, died August 1, 1951. When he died in 1915, Fritz’s ten children were all established on their own ranches and each inherited $25,000.This sum was a remarkable amount of cash for someone whose sole source of income was ranching in the raw territory of the Texas Hill country at the beginning of the twentieth century.Eli Henry and his wife Amelia Hahn, born November 8, 1875, died January 28, 1972, were married on her birthday in 1899, in Mason. They ranched and began raising their family on the Llano River in Mason County. Ten years later they decided to make a significant change, and in the spring of 1909 bought 6,000 acres for $3.00 per acre in eastern Kimble County between Junction and London.It is the southern portion of that purchase near the headwaters of Red Creek that is now Red Creek Nature Ranch. This land, which was a virtual wildlife refuge and untapped wilderness in 1909, is still pristine in many ways 106 years later. When someone visits the ranch today there is considerable evidence of forward thinking, creativity, and hard work that left the environment intact, while functioning as a productive working ranch for four generations.My father, Howard Harris Kothmann, born March 6, 1904, died December 24, 1974, was the third son of eight children raised by Lee and Amelia on this property which became the passion of their lives. They taught their children to have great respect for the land and to be good stewards of it. Each child was given educational and economic opportunity.For many years my father ran his own ranching operation and assisted his mother with hers after his father died. My father was able to purchase more and more land over the years from no other source of income but the raising of sheep, goats, and cattle. In August of 1941, Howard married my mother Mable Perkins, born July 9, 1918, died April 18, 2002. She was a devoted wife and mother.Howard and Mable raised three children. I was the oldest, born October 6, 1942. I had two sisters. Amelia was born December 30, 1943 and died in 1999. Marlene, born March 25, 1949, lives on her part of the family ranch two miles north of my home, which was built by my parents in 1954. It is located at the headquarters of Red Creek Nature Ranch.I have two sons, John James, born May 16, 1968, and Kevin Cameron, born April 4, 1970. James has a daughter, Kristin Lynn, born August 1, 1990. James and Kevin live with me on the ranch and work diligently to maintain its character and integrity. Kristin and her husband Afshawn currently reside in Florida.It is the desire of my family and I to open the land we have been given dominion over, so others may have an opportunity to enjoy and appreciate its uniqueness and beauty.Nature is an open book for those who care to read.Upon each grass covered hillside is revealed the history.Of the past, the condition of the present, and the hope of the future.Read, Observe, Learn, Enjoy!Family and ranch history compiled by John Howard Kothmann on December 25, 2004.
