We had a great experience at Dot’s Spots! Host was so accommodating for our late night arrival and adjusted our booking to a site that wasn’t as impacted by mud after some rainy weather came through. The location was also terrific as it was close to Pedernales Falls State Park and Wimberly, both which we easily explored in a day. It was the perfect first camping trip with our 18 month old! 10/10 would recommend!

We had a nice night at Dorothy's hipcamp. She was very responsive and helpful with any and all questions. She is also very dynamic and knowledgeable about a wide range of subjects. Highly recommended.

Wonderful spot. Felt like we were off on our own for the night while being convenient to town. Dot was a wonderful host, very communicative, and the site had everything we needed and more. Would definitely stay again!

Site #1 -not so primitive
Dot is an insanely accomodating host and worked extremely hard to ensure I had the perfect experience, as did her helping hand, Reza. The space is really lovely with wildlife and a great vibe. Sadly, I wasn’t able to stay when I arrived bc a family emergency came up, but I’ll 1000%. Be returning. Great spot, great people, 10/10 recommend. :)

Site #1 -not so primitive
Dot's spots are great. Each spot has plenty of room to spread out. Lots of good topsoil under the huge century live oak trees makes it a comfortable and pleasant area to hang. The toilet and sink are nice to have. She provides a trash can and some other extras. Would be a good place for new campers to get practice. In our case, we're seasoned campers that appreciated the conveniences! Not too far from everything. We came to fish the Guadalupe. Was ~15 mins to the dam from Dot's property. Would stay there again.

Dot was very communicative and welcoming! She made sure to know my arrival time so she could meet me and show me my camping spot. I was able to drive my Honda Civic down to the primitive spot without a problem and set up my tent with ease. Dot has thought of everything! Down to motion sensor lights in the outhouse. This is a perfect camping site for beginner and first time campers. I have already recommended this spot to friends and will likely be coming back myself.

I loved glamping this weekend at Dot's Spot for my honeymoon getaway! It was quiet and peaceful and we absolutely enjoyed having the curtains open on the side of the dome where you could see the stars in the night sky!! Dorothy had pretty much provided everything we could need to help make our stay as nice as possible. Everything in the small kitchen, our sleeping quarters, and both the small bathroom inside the dome and the private bathhouse outside was well prepared and setup for us before we arrived! Dorothy was extremely helpful leading up to our stay and was very communicative with me. We definitely will be back in the future for another getaway!

I absolutely loved tent camping on Dot's land. The sunrises and sunsets were amazing, my tent placed underneath two gorgeous trees framed my view and the lounge chairs set out for star gazing were just the icing on the cake. I decided to risk the heat but somehow the strong breezes coming off the open meadow next door were exactly what was needed. Dot was super responsive to any questions I had. Thank you! I can't wait to visit again!

Site #2 - Primitive Site
We loved staying at Dot's Spot! We stayed at the primitive camp site #2 and our kids and dogs enjoyed it. Dot was very attentive by sending text messages letting us know she was available if needed. Our boys enjoyed the bubbles left for them to play at the picnic table by Dot. We would definitely come back!

Dorothy and her dome were both fantastic. The dome and facilities are exactly as described, plus a bunch of thoughtful touches throughout. The dome is a generous size — more than enough for my friend and I to have a very comfortable stay. The dome and bathroom facilities reserved exclusively for dome guests are in a semi-secluded part of the property, which was nice.
Dorothy was in contact as soon as I made the reservation, was accommodating to my travel plans, and always responded quickly.
We stayed at the dome because it was close to the Whitewater Ampitheater, but I would definitely go back just to have another glamping experience.

Geodesic dome
This was my second visit to the dome, and it was just as wonderful as the first. Well appointed, conveniently located to Wimberly, and just a nice area. I’ll be back!

This was perfect for my first time camping experience! Dorothy’s property was beautiful and she had everything you could need! A platform for your tent, outhouse with a toilet and sink, shower, fire pit, grill, trash can and recycle and she even gave a cute little bucket that had first aid, disinfectant wipes, lantern, bug spray, etc. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend if you’re looking for a getaway/camping experience on a beautiful property! The sunsets and stars at night were incredible!

I would definitely recommended the campsites at Dorothy’s. She made us feel welcomed and was very nice about any questions we had. We also had a good night sleep and it was relaxing. We will definitely be coming back for more camping memories with our family!

I had a lovely stay at Dot's Spots! I chose the lower pasture area, and that's exactly where I'll be next time I stay in that area- unless I can manage the dome house!
I saw Miriam species of insects, flora and fauna! I even saw fireflies!! And if you forgot the big spray, no worries, Dot supplies you with a bucket full of things you may have left behind- sun screen, big spray, emergency cork screw! There's a picnic table (upon which was waiting a case of freshly picked wild flowers <3 ), a few lawn chairs (perfect for observing the night sky or sunning) and a hammock in the way back that is an excellent nap spot! The outhouse was clean and easily accessible. There are also solar powered lights to help you navigate in the dark. And the trees were lush and gorgeous! I did my morning yoga under the ones by the hammock.
Dot and Reza were so kind! I got to snuggle their pooch Iris, which helped so much since I had to leave my usual travel companion (Max the dog) at home this time. And when my solar powered charger stopped working, they let me plug my phone in on the porch. They even gave me a tour of the dome house, which was so inviting and comfortable.
There were some neighboring dogs barking in the distance, but they eventually got to the point where they didn't bother me. Or maybe they got let in for the night? Either way, they weren't anything that would stop me from coming back.

The dome is just so neat! We had the fun parts of camping but with the conveniences of modern life. The dome was thoughtfully appointed. We only wish we had more time there

We had a great 2 day stay at Dot’s Place! Very relaxing and a perfect location to explore the cute towns in the Hill Country. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Loved the bucket of amenities (bug spray, and other essentials). Thanks for a wonderful stay! Hope to come back again one day!

Dot was a fantastic host--she was there to greet us when we arrived with everything ready, and was always ready to help.
The dome itself was also great--beautifully placed with a pleasant view outside, and all conveniences and furnishings set up thoughtfully.
