I have only been the "custodian" of this lovely slice of Texas Hill Country for the past five years. Prior to that the property had been unoccupied for many years except for the wildlife that continue to call this place home. Several decades ago, before the land was subdivided, a huge earthen pond was constructed, and it, as well as a vast number of trees and other vegetation, helps create a wonderful habitat for us, our guests, and all creatures large and small.

Moonbeam the Airstream

100% (31)

Onsite RV/trailer · Sleeps 2

Nestled among five acres of tree-covered hill country, overlooking the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve, Moonbeam the Airstream on Round Mountain Ranch is a perfect retreat for couples, friends and nature lovers. Wake up to the soothing sounds of nature and cook in the fully stocked kitchen, coffee maker, microwave, spices and much more are included. Wander the many trails on the property or head to Lake Travis, only an 15 minute drive away for boating, hiking and sightseeing. Upon your return, string a hammock in the trees just off the front deck and enjoy an afternoon siesta. Grill dinner on the adjacent charcoal grill and dine alfresco. In the evenings, stroll down to the communal fire pit that overlooks the vernal pond and toast s’mores while gazing at the stars. The lovingly refurbished 2004 Airstream’s original interior was designed by Christopher Deam, and was one of the first "International CCD" designs. Its compact yet bright and airy with lots of counter space for cooking, dining, playing board games and writing your novel. There’s even a separate desk for additional counter space. Bring cds or dvds for the upgraded sound system and television. Air conditioning and heating are included. The wet-bath is compact but efficient. Local activities and attractions within a 10 - 20 minute drive include: touring hill country wineries, hiking in the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve, boating/kayaking on Lake Travis, grocery stores, restaurants & more! If you’re into cycling, Round Mountain Ranch is a perfect location to stage from. There are miles and miles of low traffic, scenic hill country roads to choose from. I am here to make your stay as pleasant and relaxing as possible, and will generally be on-site if you need anything. Check out our campsites, Traveleze, and the Hideout also. Hope to see you soon!

Luxurious Airstream Camping!

Moonbeam the Airstream

Michael has a dream setup on his property that's just a short drive NW of Austin. The Airstream was the perfect retreat for us after spending the day amongst the bustling Formula 1 race crowd. Everything about our stay felt magical and special, especially the on-site "hiking" trail built into the property that led to multiple surprise features -- mini disc golf course, horseshoe pits, and multiple secluded quiet seating areas!

Moonbeam the Airstream

Adorable...the bed is the size of a small full I think, so you are camping for sure. But the whole experience was adorable. My husband loves nature and is wanting to know when we are going back. Michael was great. Check in and out relaxed and easy Bring your own staples but dishes are there...great get away.

Moonbeam the Airstream

We loved this relaxing getaway so much. We had a great time at Michael’s clean and cozy airstream and exploring his property on the various trails winding through the woods. We sat and read, and listened to the birds chirping, and when it was time to go inside we watched Netflix from the bed. The whole property is very well kept and clean, I even wondered if the trails were swept before we got there, seriously!

Adorable, clean camper

Moonbeam the Airstream

Great spot! The trailer was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. There is even a microwave and toaster. A note for coffee drinkers- the coffeemaker is small- 4 cups. Bring your own firewood and charcoal and enjoy the fire pit and grill! Michael was super responsive and the grounds were cool. Nice trail around it with a horseshoe pit. Lots of trees.
