Note: If you are traveling in a group or as couples we also offer a second glamping tent next to this tent as positioned in the pictures. Both are very strategically positioned to offer privacy while having direct views of the lake from either patio.
Hidden Falls Adventure Park- 2 min (1.8 mi)
Numinous Coffee Roasters-best local coffee shop about 7 min from us.
Lake LBJ- 29 min (18.8 mi)
We are located 10 miles from the city limits of Marble Falls, approx 25 min from Lago Vista, 40-minutes from Cedar Park, and 1:10 min from downtown Austin. The closest landmark is the Smithwick Market located right next door to our private gated entrance.
On food:
The most convenient option is to use our propane grill with complementary propane. For the true campers, cooking over a campfire is a fun part of the camping experience, so you’ll have your own personal fire pit with a grill top right outside your tent. You will need to buy firewood & fire starter to help get you off to the right start!
A few tips for the grill-inclined: - Think classic: burgers, sausages, steaks, kebabs, etc. - Disposable metal pans seem to work best - Nearest grocers are H-E-B in Marble Falls (supermarket, 15 min) and Smithwick Market to the right outside the main entrance gate (local, 5 min)
You'll have a small fridge and freezer as well. If you aren’t planning on grilling, alternate food options are 10 minutes away in Marble Falls and so we recommend planning ahead for groceries /ice and restaurant dining/take out.
Onsite Activities: - Watching the Sunset over the Colorado River - Swimming in the Lake/aka Colorado River that's a part of Lake Travis - Go kayaking on the lake and look at the hill country views large hawks - Go fishing and catch some large catfish, gar, perch or bass - Self-guided yoga on the elevated deck/yoga mats provided - Campfire chats: s’mores recommended, listening to music - Picnic under the trees or on the river bank with a blanket - Hang out at night in the hot tub looking at the stars - Listen to the coyotes howl in the fall - Go jeeping or ride an ATV at Hidden Falls only 10min away - Read a book or take a nap in the hammock
Dog Friendly: Unlike many places, we love dogs! $50.00 total pet fee for up to two small to medium breed dogs. Large dogs subject to approval so please let host know if you plan to bring a dog. Your dog must be people and dog friendly.

New Years Safari of the Soul
We had an absolutely amazing time enjoying NYE at Safari for the Soul. The property exceeded our expectations, and the accommodations felt nicer than many fancy resorts.
The land was beautiful, we got to explore by the river, and it was all very quiet and tranquil for a usually noisy holiday. Can't wait to come back!
