Book a Breezeway Cabin if you want the most privacy and the best views — they come with a private hot tub and fire pit

Why It Matters

One of the few glamping properties in the Austin area offering true variety — from 200 sq ft dome-skylight yurts to multi-room Porch Houses with private chimineas — all on one sprawling property adjacent to a working winery. Listed on Tablet Hotels and cited by Southern Living and InsideHook.

Lucky Arrow sits on 15 acres of rolling Texas Hill Country, a few miles outside Dripping Springs and about 28 miles west of Austin. It calls itself the Glamping Capital of Texas — and honestly, it earns the title. Forty accommodations range from small circular yurts tucked into the woods to Breezeway Cabins with private hot tubs and Hill Country views. The vibe is rustic-modern: think record players in your cabin, plush robes hanging by the door, and a s'mores kit waiting on the counter. It's next door to Bell Springs Winery, which you can reach through a private gate.

Where You'll Stay

5 room types available

Breezeway Cabin
Cabin

Breezeway Cabin

From USD300 / night

Six cabins based on the classic Southern 'dog trot' design, where a spacious breezeway separates the living area from the sleeping quarters. The most popular and most luxurious cabin type — each has a private hot tub for stargazing, a private fire pit, and gorgeous Hill Country views. These go fast for a reason.

Courtyard Cabin

From USD200 / night

Sixteen cabins arranged in clusters of four around communal courtyards, each with one shared fire pit and two hot tubs. Good for friend groups or families who want proximity without sacrificing private space. Kick back on the pergola patio, share the hot tub with your neighboring cabin, and stroll to the pool from here easily.

Porch House

From USD200 / night

Five standalone units tucked between oak and evergreen trees — the most private option on the property. Each has a large covered porch running the full length of the unit, plus a private chiminea for dark-sky evening fires. Quieter, more secluded, and worth the upgrade if you actually want to unplug.

Safari Tent

From USD200 / night

Three of the newest additions to the property, and the most romantic option. Each has a king bed, a full private bathroom, and — the standout detail — a clawfoot tub for two. A private wood deck, chiminea, and included s'mores kit round it out. Fully air conditioned. Ideal for a couple's getaway where the novelty factor matters.

Yurt

From USD150 / night

Ten standalone 200 sq ft yurts tucked into the wooded section of the property. They're based on traditional Mongolian herder structures, updated with engineered outdoor fabrics, keypad entry, a dome skylight perfect for stargazing from bed, and full heating/AC. No TV. Shared bathhouse just a few steps away. Good for two people who want something a bit different but don't need a lot of space.
