**NOTE (as of Sept 2024 until Nov 2024) I have an RV'er staying month to month. She's open to an RV in front of hers. She uses the 30amp, so if you're interested in joining us, then you'll have to have a 50amp RV or an adapter for 50amp to 30amp. More detailed discussion will be needed to be sure all of us fit and are a fit.** This RV spot offers the perfect blend of proximity to Austin's vibrant attractions and the comfort of a cozy neighborhood setting. Situated on the side of my house, the 80-foot long spot provides ample space for your RV adventures. The entire lot is securely fenced in, granting guests exclusive access to amenities such as the pool, hot tub, and yard. Enjoy privacy with no neighbors in the back and an 8-foot tall side fence where your RV will be parked. While my own RV won't be onsite during your stay, parking towards the back allows for privacy and the extension of awnings. Backing in is recommended, and though my 33-foot long RV fits comfortably, larger rigs may find maneuvering a bit challenging due to the angle from the street through the front gate. There's plenty of room to tandem park a towed vehicle in front of your RV, and both 50amp and 30amp electric hookups are conveniently located on the back side of my house. Water is also accessible from the rear. While live sewer hookup isn't available, I offer convenient dumping options when the black tank is full. Nestled in a charming, gentrifying neighborhood, expect the pleasant hum of city sounds (not overly loud) and glimpses of starlit skies. During your stay, I'll be residing in the house with my sociable dog, Toby. We'll be respectful of your privacy but available for any assistance you may need. Toby loves company, including other dogs, and has even been around cats with proper introductions. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to arrange a booking!**NOTE (as of Nov 2024 until Dec 1 2024) I have an RV'er staying month to month. She's open to an RV in front of hers.

More detailed discussion will be needed to be sure all of us fit and are a fit.** This RV spot is for those who want to be within 2-5 miles of Austin action and parks while staying in a cozy neighborhood homesite. The RV spot is an 80' long spot on the side of my house. The entire lot is fenced in and guests can use the yard as if their own. Currently hot tub on injured reserve. My lot has reasonable privacy with no neighbors in the back and an 8' tall side fence where RV will be parked. My pictures show my 33' Class A motorhome that has 2 slides, making it 10-11 feet wide when it was here as well as current campers 23' Airstream. My RV will not be onsite when guests reserve. Parking toward the back allows for privacy and awnings to be extended. It's best to back in. It's fairly easy to back in my 33' long motorhome; though I don't think too many feet longer could make it only because of the angle from the street through the front gate. With trailers, probably same length is max and you gotta be decent at backing in. There is plenty of room to tandem park or park a car/truck in front of house inside gated if towing. The 50amp and 30amp box is on the back side of my house. If your cord is in the back like mine, you'll need an extension cord to connect. Water is available in back and front of house. You will not be able to keep sewer hooked up to clean out while staying but can dump on the way out or as needed if have portable tank. I live in a charming, gentrifying neighborhood. We are in the city, so expect (enjoy?) city sounds (not loud) and not super dark skies...though I certainly see stars. I will be staying in my house with my dog Toby. He is socialized to people and all dogs. We will be in backyard often but will be respectful if we see/feel our guests need/want private time. I've included his picture as well. Your dogs will have fun. He's even been around cats, though he needs to be introduced to cats to realize they're not intruders.

Perfect spot for exploring Austin. Our travel trailer was 30 feet long and fit perfectly. Lucy is super friendly and easy going. We have no complaints with our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lucy's. She communicated promptly and was well-prepared for our arrival. The location was ideal, allowing us to leave our rig and use public transportation to get downtown. As a bonus, our dog loved playing with hers. We would happily stay here again if we're ever back in town.

Lucy is the GOAT of host 🐐

This was our first ever stay/trip in our new RV and I could make this review longer than our stay about how amazing Lucy and her spot were. From the quick accessible location off the highway and near downtown to all the fun stuff in the area, to her generous accommodations, hospitality, and even her sweet boy Toby who got along with all 3 of our dogs and even the visitor dog Pepe was an absolute pleasure. But… I will spare you the novel. Needless to say, you won’t regret staying here. Being newbie RVers, she was so helpful when it came to any uncertainties we had and had no problem lending a helping hand. We really truly made the most out of our stay here with Lucy and we will very certainly be back and recommend you pick Lucy’s spot for your next Austin Rv trip! Also this should go without saying.. but don’t take advantage of her kindness!!! We picked up after our dogs, cleaned up after ourselves, stayed courteous with our noise, respected everyone’s boundaries including the doggies and reciprocated the kindness. Just be a decent person because she’s doing a great thing here and really doesn’t have to go above and beyond the way she does, all we pay for is the reservation of the spot not for her to go above and beyond the way she does so don’t be the ones to ruin it for everyone else. So anyways, we didn’t have a name for our RV yet but now she’s named after Lucy! In honor of her making our first impression and experience of RV life such a positive and memorable one!

Easy Peace-y

Lucy's land is a great lil set up. She is an epic hostess. Her spot is super convenient & feels safe. Lucy is a wonderfully helpful, accommodating, responsive, & respectful hostess. I have a 25ft x 8ft airstream & I was able to get in the drive fairly easy but If you have a large rig it may be a little tight getting through the gate. Other than that it was great. I'd definitely recommend for a chill simple spot while visiting Austin. 👍🏼☺️👍🏼

Great location to be near downtown

Lucy was very communicative and responsive throughout the process. We were only there for a brief overnight to see a concert so we didn't get to experience all the amenities like the pool. It was a great location to access Austin proper without being stuck in an overcrowded RV park for the same price or more per day.

We loved camping at Lucy’s rv site!! Lucy was super helpful and nice!! Her dog Toby was so sweet!! He and our dog played together a lot. We parked our 5th wheel 30ft on her rv site and used our 50 amp extension cord to reach power box. Power and water hookups worked great! We also were able to use our portable sewage tank. The hot tub and pool are a bonus and makes it feel like a tiny resort! At night it was very quiet. Also it was walking distance to Roy G. Colorado river metro park where we hiked on trails. Lucy and Toby are so welcoming and we would definitely recommend Lucy’s rv site!!
