Horseback Camping In the Woods
Poor communication then blew up my phone followed by more poor communication. Way too many bogus rules, during eclipse, stated there would be bathrooms then there wasn't going to be any after purchase. Seems to be a theme.

Horseback Camping In the Woods
It was great! Victoria and Miguel were awesome hosts and the land was super nice. The pasture was super spacious so we didn't have to worry about any of the other campers. We got the home made breakfast and it was amazing, highly recommend. We had a great weekend and will definitely be coming back at some point!

Not a good place for camping!
Host were nice, very helpful, just the camping area was bad, not toilets, I was feeling like a horse! The cost very high for what you got, $87 per night, super expensive!

I do not recommend tent camping her
HomeAway Ranch & Wildlife Preserve is not set up to properly serve tent campers. If you are going to charge $75.00 or more you must have some type of restrooms. Tent campers should not need to drive 5 miles back into town to use a restroom .

Hill Country Camp & Horseback Ride
Victoria was extremely nice and welcoming. Offered breakfast tacos for the eclipse which was convenient and delicious. The cabins on top of the hill seemed very nice from the outside. We camped down in a tent in a field for the eclipse. We booked on Thursday 4/4 for our trip Sunday thru Tuesday the following week. Unfortunately we found out about there being no toilet due to unforeseen circumstances after booking - wish that info would’ve been adjusted in the description before booking. We thought based on the listing we would be close to animals, but we only saw 1 donkey the whole time we were there which was disappointing. Probably should book the $120 animal tour if you want to see animals (the price benefits the animal sanctuary I believe so money is going to good cause). Location of the camp was great - very close to gas, restaurants, etc. Never found where the water pump was - asked and was directed to just use sink (where the pump goes into) in the kitchen area which was fine for filling water, but would’ve been nice to have pump for washing face, brushing teeth etc since didn’t want to get the kitchen sink dirty. Check in was a bit confusing. We waited in our car as instructed for 10 min for someone to come out but no one did. We ended up seeing someone at a house a bit up the hill and walked over there. I would come back if staying in the cabins instead of tent camping.

All right thank you you too. Yes, m
We booked here for the 2024 eclipse, upon booking the host indicated that the price was now $75/night (up from the $35 on the site). That wasn’t great but I figured it was event surge pricing and rolled with it. Then shortly before our trip we received a message that there would not be any toilets or showers available, and were encouraged to buy our own portable toilet from Amazon :(. When we were arriving we were also directed to a large open field camp area, however we had decided to go here because it had what was described as private wooded camp sites. When I asked about the wooded campsites, the host said those would cost more?! But we decided we wanted to stay in the woods anyway. Upon arriving, however I would not describe the wooded campsites, as private in any way. There were cabins and other campers all around. Overall the host was very nice but the conflicting information and the lack of any kind of toilets was totally unacceptable.
