Weekend Trip to Lake Godstone™ Lodging and Camping

First and foremost, everything was beautiful. The land was well kept, peaceful, calm. Carol & Dom were absolutely pleasant to be around. They made sure we had everything we needed from the start of our trip to the end. I will definitely be back but with more people this time lol! I also noticed there were others camping with us on other areas but they were respectful and kind. We also did canoeing and paddle boating activities. At night, it was peaceful.

3 nights at Little Off Lake House

The hosts were fantastic and the location was great. We had a great time fishing and relaxing in nature.

4 nights at Gypsy Moon Hideaway

I am always grateful for my time here. The surroundings respect nature and the people respect each other. Resources are close, accessible and more than you deserve. It is safe. Minus the threat of nature of course.

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Amy and team are amazing, kind, and generous hosts. We enjoyed the animals, river, & land to roam on. It was a pleasant reprise from the city. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Arison's Farm Stay

What a lovely space to escape from the world! Great hosts, great kids and great space. Very clean. Had everything we needed and more. Jim was entertaining, the dogs are sweeties, and all the goats! Terrific stay

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

We stayed the weekend for a getaway from life and work. Such a calm and relaxing location. It was nice to lay in the hammock and watch the animals walk around. We enjoyed walks around the property with small trails to walk through. One of our best moments was sitting by the lake at night to star gaze, it was such a beautiful view of all the visible stars. Our 4 legged furry daughter really enjoyed laying on the top floor balcony of the dollhouse to enjoy the entire view. We had such an amazing weekend. Thank you Amy for being such an accommodating host. We will definitely 1000% be back!

Weekend Trip to Gypsy Moon Hideaway

The experience was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Amy was very accommodating and great with our children in our group. This camp has a wonderful pavilion with lots of seating and activities for the children also. We loved the animals, the quiet, and the area to walk and enjoy. We will definitely recommend this place to others. We look forward to our next visit!!

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

Clean, easy to access, camping under the trees was perfect. The toilet was easy to use and somehow had no odor. The trickle of the stream made the campsite perfectly peaceful. The camp host was accommodating and responsive. I plan to return

2 nights at JH Ranch-Haggard Lake

Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at John's cabin, and it was the perfect get away for us. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the peaceful sound of nature and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The cabin itself was clean, well-equipped, and well furnished, providing all the comforts of home while still maintaining that rustic charm. We hiked around the property, fished in the lake, and sat around the fire pit at night. John has beautiful land that feels far away from hustle and bustle of our day to day lives. We would highly recommend this stay for anyone looking to get away.

3 nights at EcoRich Ranch

Note the additional per person fee. Great to be by river/stream. Pit toilet.

1 night at Gypsy Moon Hideaway

Used passing through for a night. Quite pleasant and wouldn't mind staying longer next time.

Weekend Trip to Little Off Lake House

This was our 2nd stay and was wonderful again. Great property. Very peaceful with wonderful hosts.

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

I cannot say enough good things about our stay here. The site and overall area were perfect. Our site had a good blend of shade and open space; the fire pit, picnic table, and outdoor toilet in great condition, and the ranch itself was big enough for my kids to go off and explore but not so big I had to worry about them getting lost. We had planty of quiet solitude but were still close to both Glen Rose and Stephenville. Emory is a great host and I would absolutely stay here again.

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

Well maintained private campsites. Have been twice and love going here !

Weekend Trip to EcoRich Ranch

Perfect camping spot!! so quiet and relaxing right by the creek. highly recommend!

2 nights at Lake Godstone™ Lodging and Camping

We stayed at panorama with a 20ft camper and we loved it. The dogs had a great time as they were able to run around and explore as well. The fishing was great considering the weather we had to deal with, (50+ mph wind gusts), but we still had a great time. Our hosts were awesome and accommodating. We definitely want to come back to do swimming and fishing when the water isn’t so cold!

1 night at Myers Corner on the Brazos River

Stayed at one of the lovely lodging locations by the Brazos river! Good water pressure and hot water. Fridge, AC/heat, hotplate, TV, indoor flush toilet, indoor shower, comfortable bed. Coffee maker present but did not use. Location is managed but owner is nearby. Both people were very accommodating and communication was very good. Price was comparable to motels, but privacy surpassed all!! We were returning from an east-west coast car-camping/nomad road trip. We planned to stay with a friend but they got sick and we needed to find last minute alternative lodging before leaving Texas. We were ahead of the storms coming from the west and south (March 11-16 2025). This site was not only available last minute for us but allowed a one night stay. We booked a few hours away and drove to this lovely location. I only wish I could have booked longer but definitely will save this as a favorite location to return. <3 Word to the wise for all: ALWAYS contact HipCamp hosts prior to booking even if it is an Instant Book. Just like with the other types of “hosted stays” AirBnB, Vrbo, HarvestHosts —Technology is cool but can be flawed. I have stayed at two HipCamps and plan to host my own. Both times the app fell short on some info, but not enough to spoil the experience. Just communicate with the hosts and all will work out!

1 night at EcoRich Ranch

Good little private spot for a weekend getaway with just the essentials. With Dinosaur Valley State Park just a short drive away, this was a great choice for us. Will come back with a group next time!

2 nights at Lake Godstone™ Lodging and Camping

Great campsite with lots of activities for a group trip! Our host did a great job greeting us and showing us around the property. The bathrooms and showers really surprised us with how nice they were. Lake is great to swim and fish in.

3 nights at Gypsy Moon Hideaway

This place was so great! Amy was amazing and gave us a tour of all her animals. It was a wonderful time. We will definitely be back!
