Beautiful Safari Tent Experience in Central Texas
After downsizing and moving into a highrise in downtown Austin, we find that a quarterly trip out of the city is a good respite for us. For Memorial Day, my husband book at birthday trip to Wahwahtaysee Resort near San Marcos, TX. We had a fabulous time at this lovely property. This 100 acre family owned piece of land is about a 45 minute drive from Austin. The lovely, lazy, winding San Marcos river runs through it. The owners were inspired on an African Safari to bring that type of living experience to Central Texas. They brought the durable and beautiful Safari Tents and modified them for the different climate here by insulating and adding air conditioning. The accommodations are lovely—beautiful bathrooms with modern tub, kichenettes and a big canopy bed with chandelier. They have thought of everything you could want for a “glamping trip”—hair dryer, steamer, grilling gloves, beach towels. Three aspects we loved—
1.) the Yeti Dinners—think Blue Apron dinners with ingredient, designed to be prepared on your beautiful backyard Green Egg
2.) The Chef Dinner—they arranged for a Pop Up Dining Chef to come in one night to prepare a fabulous meal which we ate on our front porch dining table at sunset. The food was extraordinary.
3.). The Golf Cart—available at your tent to travel down to the river beach with your yeti so you don’t have to haul all of your gear and to tour the property
The have done a beautiful job clearing and creating a really nice path/trail for hiking, jogging, driving your golf cart. It is a beautiful nature trail. When we visited Memorial Day, 2018, they only had three of these amazing glamping tent/homes. In visiting with the owners, they have plans to add more, tree houses, a wedding venue, etc. I am not sure what the timeline is for the next phases. This is a great property for families with kids, a family reunion, young couples, empty nesters. The owners are very attentive and lovely people. In addition to the hiking, fishing, tubing, canoeing, there are several cute towns very close by (Lockhart—BBQ capital of the world, Gruene—Music hall fame, the San Marcos Outlets, and more!). I would definitely recommend and we will be back! What a great experience!
