We welcome you to come enjoy the beautiful outdoors and dark sky on a scenic 110 acre ranch in the Texas Hill Country. Our family has lived and cared for this unique property since 1976 and we are still here today. We are conveniently located in Blanco, Texas less that 50 miles from either San Antonio or Austin and in the heart of the Texas wine country. Our campsites are next to a spring feed tributary creek which flows year around feeding into the Blanco River just a few miles away or hillside with amazing views of the river valley. You will enjoy the babbling creek, miles of hiking and biking trails, cooling off in the creek, scenic hilltop views, solitude, bold sunrises and sunsets, and a brilliant night sky. We have numerous old growth hardwood trees including Live Oaks, Spanish oaks, Elm, Escarpment Cherry, Black walnut, and Ashe Juniper (cedar) one of which has the largest circumference in Texas. We have a wide selection of native and migratory wildlife that calls this place home including white tail deer, wild turkeys, foxes, bobcats, jack rabbits, road runners, seasonal songbirds and butterflies. We are just minutes away from Blanco State Park and a short drive to Pedernales Falls or Guadalupe River State Park.

Blasingame Creek Camp

Site was easy to find with provided instructions. Quiet area with many animals seen on the drive in. Site was very private. Didn't see another person the entire trip. Creek near the site was running and fun for the kids to hike around. Short drive from Blanco.

Sunset Hill Bell Tent

This spot was great! Slow trail crawl to an isolated canvas tent that sits on a platform. Plenty of zipper ventilation screens. I have one dog im sure stayed up all night starting out one in fascination. We fit two four people with air mattresses and two dogs with dog beds and extra stuff in that tent just fine. So glad to bot have to put up our tent. Hast two chairs good breeze and great views. Very clean site with not dead brush or tree limbs piled up. Make sure to bring a honey pot (5 gallon bucket, trash bags with toilet lid) and the extras. Got in after dark but spot was easy to find with the signs posted. We were able to see the lunar eclipse and great views of the sky. We notified the host we were coming in late and he was super accommodating and responsive. Definitely recommend. Will be back for sure.

Blasingame Creek Camp

We had a great time! Secluded site where we could play card games, relax, spend time together, wriggle our feet in the creek and explore the trails. My kids (15, 8, 6) enjoyed themselves, went on lots of ‘adventures’, played hide and seek, and got a kick out of the rooster “alarm clock”. We (grown ups) got a chance to enjoy the peace, quiet, night sky, sunrise and sunsets too. Overall a great trip even though the weather didn’t cooperate (high winds) and we had to cut our trip a tiny bit short. We’d love to come back and explore Blanco’s town square and the surrounding area a bit too (parks, breweries, shopping). Bill is a great host, helpful, attentive and allows guests to do their own thing while wandering around his piece of paradise. He’s a great steward to his land, and it shows. The mule ride/tour is not to be missed.
