My Babymoon at Camp Blanco

We stayed at The Ranger and it was the perfect setting for our baby moon. The home features detailed stonework throughout the interior and exterior, a beautiful living room with massive fireplace, lounge area, 2-bedrooms (with the comfiest king bed!) 1.5 baths, open kitchen (perfect for the chef in me) and large front porch that is ideal for slow mornings with hot coffee. The signature Feastwell bucket comes with delicious snacks from Siete Chips, Jamie’s Salsa, High Brew Coffee, Rambler Sparkling Water and more! They also include a Scrubwell by Lemi Shine bin to help keep the place tidy. 

I cooked quite a bit on the vintage six burner stove top and the large kitchen table was the best setting for some wonderful long talks over homemade pizza, a big weekend brunch, and grilled burgers. The Kookaburra is the game room of my dreams! It’s actually a three car garage converted into an epic room with a pool table, shuffleboard, poker table, dart board, 85 in screen tv and large seating area. We spent hours playing games and watching basketball with the garage doors open. It’s an incredible space to gather with friends and family, especially when the weather is as perfect as it was for us (72 degrees and breezy!) It’s connected to The Brownie which is an open floor plan with 4 bunk beds, a kitchen and sitting area. So cute and quaint!

The Daisy is a vintage inspired house with 2 beds, 1 bath, cozy living room and kitchen and sits between the outdoor bathroom and The Kookaburra. We did a little walk through to see the space, but spent our time in The Ranger. While the waterfront would’ve been dreamy to see, I just couldn’t make it down there with the pregnancy pains I’m enduring - but click here to see more about the beautiful outdoor structure that sits right near the water!

If I could stay at Camp Blanco all year long, I would. The seclusion, the huge land to walk throughout, and the gorgeous housing options make it one of the best properties I’ve ever had the privilege to visit - and it was only a little over an hour away from Austin. Whether you’re looking for a weekend getaway with your significant other (and fur babies) or planning a small but safe get together, this is the destination to spend quality time with the people in your pod! I’m already thinking about heading back to Camp Blanco and showing my baby girl that this was the place where we celebrated her and our lives ahead.
