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.

My husband, dogs, and I stayed in The Hideout and it was the perfect cozy space with everything we needed. Communication was top notch and river access for fishing was a definite perk. We saw plenty of wildlife during our stay as well.

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.

Gorgeous place! We got to see some beautiful wildlife and heard coyotes aplenty. Every evening we watched the sunset from the deck. It was very peaceful.

This is a very cool glamping destination! My family of 5 + 2 dogs loved staying out at Stacie & Jeremy’s location. The river access is within the gated neighborhood and we went there 4 times to play. Took advantage of the proximity to Colorado Bend St Park too. Very responsive owner though we didn’t have any issues. We’ve done a lot of camping and glamping over the years, this one ranks near the top.

Really cool setup and a unique take on glamping! This definitely could be marketed as an “experience.” I have never been to Africa but this is exactly what I think of when I think African safari. I felt very secure and protected in this giant “tent.” It was the perfect size for 2 adults, two 4 year olds and two dogs. We cooked all our meals (potato and egg, hot dogs, kabobs, and even a sirloin steak) right over the campfire, except breakfast of the morning we left because it rained. The way to the river was a little drive, scenic drive with many animals to see, and I’m honestly glad it was not within walking distance because our kids would have been in there the whole time. Stacie and Jeremy were very responsive and I highly recommend them as hosts! Thank you!
