Adults-only · A private pool with every tent
Three hand-built safari tents raised into the oaks of the Hill Country, an hour from Austin. Two guests, 450 square feet.
Private
The Spoon Mountain difference
Most glamping sites have one shared pool for everyone. Here, every safari tent has its own private pool, tucked behind its own privacy fence and just steps from your bed.
Swim at midnight. Swim in complete privacy. Swim whenever you want.
No crowds. No waiting. No one walking by. Just your own private oasis.
Choose your tent
Imported from South Africa and raised into the oaks. All three are 450 square feet with the same private pool and soaking tub. What changes is the character inside.
Bright & designer
On the end nearest the fire pit. White furnishings, light wood and brass. Deer graze past the deck in the morning.
Leather & wood
The middle tent, darker and warmer. Leather seating, earthy wood, a handmade headboard and unusual light fixtures.
Step-free access
Wheelchair access without feeling clinical: parking right outside, a long ramp to the deck and an extra-large roll-in shower.
Every tent: outdoor soaking tub, kitchenette, split AC and heat, two-night minimum. Pool heating $60 per day.

Where you are
Thirty-seven miles southwest of Austin sits Wimberley: a creekside town square full of shops and restaurants, and Blue Hole, one of the most famous swimming holes in Texas, on the clear, cool Cypress Creek.
There are wineries and breweries, hiking and biking trails, the Blanco River, the Emily Ann Theatre, and Wimberley Market Days, the second largest flea market in the state. Town is a short drive down the hill, and you are far enough up it to hear nothing at night.
Your hosts
We have lived, worked, raised two children and run businesses in Wimberley for more than 25 years. After years with a successful med spa next door, we bought the land behind it and spent a long time planning a place where couples could actually reconnect.
We found the right safari tents in South Africa, shipped them here, and built this hillside retreat around them. Everything you find inside was chosen by us, one piece at a time.
Straight from our booking system
“We had a wonderful, cozy weekend here. The temperatures dropped almost to freezing which we did not expect, but we were kept so warm in the Shaka tent. It felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. My husband kept saying how the place felt like an upscale hotel.”
Emily“One of the most amazing properties we have ever stayed at. The tent was so amazing and cozy, if it weren't for the need to eat and the desire to do a little shopping in town we would probably have stayed on the property the whole time.”
Tracey B“The tent is incredible in and of itself, but the attention to detail is meticulous. The owners thought of everything you need to enjoy peaceful couples time. Even the furniture on the front and back patio is what you would find in a designer magazine.”
