* Unfortunately, our camper was struck by lightning and started a small fire - it is a total loss! I'm leaving the listing up so our past guests know what happened when they look for us. * Bring your bike or take a walk in the country. Wake up early to see a beautiful sunrise and sip your coffee while listening to the sounds of nature. Or enjoy a glass of local wine while sitting outside and watching the beautiful sunsets turn into a starry night sky.

1 night at HeyDay LBK - We Bought A Bus

I was so pleased to see this unique spot on our path to Austin from New Mexico. It was a little hard to find at night because there are no distinguishing features on the driveway and you can't see the address but it's a sweet funky little throwback to a great American pastime. A gypsy pastime. My 10 yr old was elated and. we had a lovely evening powering down and watching a dvd and reading about all the folks living this lifestyle. Reminded me of living on the road 30 years ago on our way out west We were very comfortable I would say it somewhat defeats the purpose that it's as expensive as a hotel stay but certainly more interesting and well worth it for the memories. Also the bed mattress needs to be more firm. I don't mind memory foam but this is like coma foam. It's so squishy that it tacos in the middle. That's not the right choice for the public accommodations Other than that, it's pretty cute inside and well appointed. I had an absurdly delicious coffee in the morning to send us On our way.

1 night at A&L Farms Camper

I’ve stayed several times here and plan to again! This time around Lynnea was particularly accommodating considering the frozen lines and I am so very grateful for her flexibility!
