This 12.4 acres of wildlife on the Colorado River is full of so much natural beauty! We're Located In Smithville Tx Home Of Hope Floats! 5 mins from downtown! Plenty of stores if needed! Roundtop And Lagrange Tx home of the antique shows (15-25 mins) Sherwood Forest Fair (25mins) Beautiful Historic Bastrop (12mins) 🚨PSA Please Be Advised🚨 This Is The Country Where Folks Do Hunt And Shoot!! Although Your Completely Safe, You MAY Or May NOT Hear Gun Shots!! If You Have A FurBaby That Is Panicked And Stressed From Fireworks Popping And/Or Gunfire ( AS I DO ) It May Be Best 2 Leave Them Home,, To Prevent Any Uncomfortable Anxieties That May Occur IF there happens to be gun shots. PLEASE NOTE (TP) CAN BE PURCHASED BUT IS NO LONGER PROVIDED AS WELL AS TOWEL BUNDLES. 🚨🚨 We Can Not Control Mother Nature Guys! 🚨🚨 If There Has Been Excessive And Continuous Rainfall Travis Co. WILL Open The Gates On Us Little Guys Down River! (which makes for the BEST fishing BTW #MonsterCats) But This Will Inevitably Flush The River Stirring Up The Sandy Bottom. When that happens the Beautiful SandBar Is NonExistant As The Rising waters Cover it. This doesn't happen with A Down Pour Here And There As Stated It Would Have To Be Heavy And Consistant Fall For Days For This To Happen And Does Rarely Occur But We Have Recently Had A Rare Season With Hurricane Baryl barreling through Our Parts Of Texas That campers weren't so happy about so I just want to note it here as something to keep in mind!!! Hipcamp now offers a weather insurance that you may want to add to your booking just Incase Mother Nature decides to smack us around a bit. PLEASE BE MINDFUL THE PRIVATE DOCK IS THE RIVERRAT SHACK BNB GUESTS' RIVER ACCESS!! Please be respectful and courteous to All Guests and their campsite's and individual spaces!! 🙏 📢 PSA 📢 Reading The Shower Instructions Is Best Done B4 Entering The Shower!! Always turn the hot on 1st and do not add any cold until it's All The Way HOT 🥵 We No Longer Have Cows Grazing!! 📣Attention Campervan's 📣 A Campervan is a type of RV And RVs Are Only Allowed @ Campsite 3 As To Not Block The River Views From Other Camper's. If You Have A Campervan And Want To Be @ A Bank Site.... You'll Need To Get Permissions From The Host 1st, B4 Booking!! 🙏 This Can Be Accommodated But Will Have To Be Ironed Out Ahead Of Time!

Site 1 Riverbank
Bridget and her husband are great hosts. The camp is as described. Quiet and secluded. We stayed at lot 1, by the river. The river had a bunch of moss/algae so it was difficult to fish near shore with casting with lures, so need to toss far with bait, which I didn’t have any. Bridget was always attentive and was always willing to help with any needs. We had a great time!

Fantastic place! We came back for a second time and enjoyed it as much this time. It’s peaceful and relaxing. Love the access to the river. Bridget is fantastic to work with. Very accommodating and understanding! We’ll be back!

Wonderful camping on the river
Such a perfect spot for camping on the river. We were in a waterfront site and it was great to wake up to the view in the morning. Firepit is huge and so nice, we used it for paella as well as evening campfires. The bathhouse is perfect with hot showers and a great sink for doing dishes. The best part is the host; Bridget was attentive and friendly. They delivered firewood right away and communicated throughout our stay to make sure everything was good. Can’t wait to go back!

Perfect casual camping spot
Amazing piece of land and top tier amenities for anyone that isn’t a hardcore camper. Clean and nice restrooms and showers. Equipment like floats and kayaks to use, ground is soft and easy to stake tents down. Nice picnic benches at each site and great campfire grills. Really good spot for families or intro campers.

Will be back
Beautiful setting, great fire pit, and all the amenities you’d need! I camp all the time and this is a hidden gem. Nice spacious sites that are not close together so you can have privacy from neighbors or easily walk around for a community vibe. Be sure to bring toilet paper, as this seems to be often overlooked in the app and the host graciously supplies everything else :)
