A peaceful campsite in the country. Our campsite is on a private 1 acre section near our residence. You can enjoy watching the wildlife or stargazing at night. On site, you will have a cozy bed, hammock swings, outdoor shower, fire pit with grill, and an outhouse. Access to the nearby creek is just minutes away.
The Magnolia is a great place to escape from the city. Some of the wildlife you may see or hear are cows, squirrels, rabbits, owls, coyotes and our free range chickens. We do ask that you give us a heads up if you plan to brings dogs so we can keep them in their coop for the day.
Enjoy the stars from the hammock swings or lay a blanket out in the grass. We also allow tent camping for extra people beyond our 2 person limit for the building itself.

The property borders a small creek and has abundant trees, and wildlife. Beautiful views from every vantage with a high field on one half of the property and a low bottom land near the creek where there are many options for a relaxing, private stay. Chose big sky or a more secluded spot. Incredible wildflowers on display in the spring. The property is not bordered by close neighbors or dense housing, just more land so sunsets and rises are wonderful and open. Low ambient light pollution at night means the stars are very bright (and so are the fireflies)!

If tent camping, please do not bring glass containers, also you must pack out all garbage and waste.

Boho on the Brazos: Ruby's Retreat
12. Boho on the Brazos: Ruby's Retreat
25mi from Simonton · 1 site
Welcome to Ruby’s Retreat! This camper is named after my grandmother, Ruby — a woman who dreamed of exotic horizons but never got the chance to see them. After spending more than 230 nights in this cozy space over the past three years, I wanted to honor her legacy. I’m opening the door for you to a world of adventure without going too far. When you stay here, you aren’t just renting a camper — you’re helping a dream finally take flight, one sunrise and sunset at a time.
The Minimalism Experiment
In a world of “too much,” Ruby’s Retreat is an invitation to have “just enough.” We’ve stripped away the clutter to focus on what matters. Inside, you’ll find the essentials: a cozy bed, a small coffee station, and a “Self-Introspection Basket” filled with adult coloring books, cards, and dominoes to help you unplug.
The Setting: Real, Raw, & Rural
Let’s be 100% honest: this is not a high-end luxury resort. We’re located in a rustic, authentic Texas RV park in the suburbs of Houston. The roads are gravel, the neighboring bathhouse is vintage, and the landscape is a simple wooded field near the banks of the Brazos River.
But what we lack in “polish,” we make up for in peace. You’ll have:
Private outdoor space, complete with a boho mandala rug, comfortable chairs, and string lights for evening magic.
Water access — just a short walk to a private pond and the Brazos River, perfect for fishing or a quiet morning or evening stroll.
Creature comforts, including a Keurig for your morning brew, a small heater/AC for Texas weather, and a space designed with a whole lot of heart.
While situated in the suburbs, restaurants, convenience stores, and grocery stores are just minutes away.
Is Ruby’s Retreat for You?
If you need marble countertops and manicured lawns, you might want to keep looking. But if you’re seeking a soul-filling experience — a place to journal, catch a fish, and honor the spirit of a woman who loved the idea of travel — then Ruby is waiting for you.
Come sit a spell. Help Ruby see through your eyes.

Eric and Jay’s RV Resort is a chic resort consisting of 114 RV pads in a gated, access-controlled community. The RV pads range in size with 30-foot back-ins, 40-foot extended length, and luxury pull-throughs. Each slip is outfitted with a picnic table and includes water, sewer and electric hook-ups as well as a fast fiber internet connection. The drive lanes are 20 - 28 feet wide allowing for easy maneuvering. Select pads feature a lake view, quick amenity access, private yards and/or covered parking.
The resort is a stylish, amenity-laden destination offering a charming Texas Hill Country vibe in the midst of the exciting city life. The property is anchored by a clubhouse and pool terrace with a heated jacuzzi, a gazebo grilling/dining area, and an outdoor fire pit overlooking the large pond stocked for fishing.

A major perk of staying at Eric and Jay’s is the immediate access to the City of Houston’s vast retail and transportation network.

Site 10 feels totally private and spacious. It’s the perfect spot to hang a hammock and listen to the tall pines sway in the wind. Our weekend spirit guide, a giant white Great Pyrenees ranch dog, appeared from the woods on our first night. At his own free will he spent a good deal of the weekend with us; guarding our tent at night, guiding us on the beautiful hiking trails, greeting us as soon as we woke up, checking in periodically for belly scratches, and pawing at us when we stopped to demand more pets. We weren’t sure his real name, so we named him Falkor for the weekend after the big white dragon in The Neverending Story. (It’s a good movie you should watch it.) It was hard saying goodbye to Falkor but an interaction doesn’t have to be long for it to be meaningful. Would return to hang out with Falkor again and reconnect with nature!

Me and my family loved it. Real nice and quiet place, the fire pit, the tent, and had almost everything you need, such as a table, chairs, even an hammock. There is not much to wonder around but is cozy, so you shouldn’t need to. The only thing is that the restroom is not super close, so the only thing I would’ve brought was a portable potty for easy going.

My wife and I had an amazing time at The Magnolia. Jennifer and her husband were super friendly and treated us with kindness. They greeted us and gave us a short intro.
The set up in the tent house was full of thought and essentials. Flashlights, towels, matches, and first aid kit. They also had some outdoor games. Along with coffee cups and a French press! ☕️
We also bought some eggs and they were DELICIOUS! The eggs are a must! It completes the experience. 🍳
Our dog had an amazing time outdoors and really enjoyed his time out there! 🐾
I would recommend if it’s your first time glamming!

Host was great, good communication. Good choices of open or secluded camp sites. This is now one of our top choices for our annual winter group campout. Note that some camp sites can be a long walk (or short drive) from the restrooms. Bring your own tables as not all sites have tables.

Weekend Trip to Outpost 203 - Camp & Glamp
This place is well maintained and very lovely. Evenly spaced out from other campers. Tons of sticks to collect for a good fire, sorry if we cleared all of them out 🤣. The pirate ship is a good touch. Would highly recommend spending a few days here. We camped peacefully full of laughter and joy at the "zen den" only recommendation would be to put a strand of lights on the string for the front of the tent, at night it was hard to see it and would hate for anything to happen to a person or even the owners property. Other than that its a very warming and lovely place. Btw listen for the donkey and geese I had a good conversation with them. Thank you for an excellent stay and we are looking forward to doing it again one day!!

Second time visit to site 19 and loved our camping experience there! We ran out of wood and they were nice enough to drop off a big bundle of wood for a reasonable price! Can’t rave about this place enough.

My friends and I had a great time camping on Matt’s land. The pizza oven was a highlight and definitely a must when staying here. We also really enjoyed using the kayaks—they were a great way to spend time on the river. The water level was a bit low, but it was still doable. Overall, a fun and memorable place to camp.

I stayed at site 10. Very secluded and surrounded by dense forest. You won’t see anyone until you leave the campsite. Julie gave me a map of the ranch when I checked in that has trail maps on it as well. The trails are marked with painted lids. They can be a bit confusing at times but I suspect that will improve with time. I did not use the amenities so I cannot comment on those. Outhouse is right next to the camping area entrance by site 15. From what I could tell the campsites had some wood already there and you are allowed to use any fallen limbs as firewood. Enjoy!
