The Enchanting Hobbit's Nest Treehouse- A Magical Escape in the Lost Pines Shire

Step into a Fairy Tale: The Enchanting Hobbit's Nest Treehouse

Nestled Amongst the Treetops of Lost Pines Forest

Escape to a world of magic and wonder with a visit to the enchanting Hobbit's Nest treehouse. Whether you seek a romantic getaway or a fun-filled family vacation, this unique glamping experience offers the serenity of nature with all the comforts of home. Resting amidst the lush treetops of Lost Pines Forest, the Hobbit's Nest promises an unforgettable stay where your imagination can run wild and your soul can find solace in the beauty of the natural world.

A Whimsical Abode with Modern Comforts

As you ascend into the cozy embrace of the treehouse, you'll be greeted by a comfortable queen-size bed, offering a bird's-eye view of the surrounding forest canopy. Should you desire additional sleeping arrangements, two cots and/or two air mattresses are available upon request, providing room for the whole family to indulge in a unique camping experience amongst the trees. Clean linens, towels, and a K-cup coffee maker with coffee are all thoughtfully supplied, ensuring your stay is nothing short of delightful.

Nature's Comforts with a Touch of Magic

Recent additions to the treehouse include electricity, an air conditioner/heater mini split, and a small refrigerator with ice trays. These modern amenities harmoniously blend with the natural setting, providing both comfort and convenience during your stay. Illuminating lights both inside and below the treehouse allow you to savor the recreational spaces well into the evening, extending your moments of joy in this enchanting realm. Please note that there is no Wi-Fi or internet available at the treehouse, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature.

Eco-Friendly and Refreshing Bathing

In harmony with nature's rhythm, the Hobbit's Nest features a composting toilet, offering an eco-friendly solution for your bathroom needs. Outside, a blissful outdoor shower provides the perfect opportunity to refresh and revitalize while basking in the beauty of the surrounding forest. Biodegradable toiletries are supplied.

A Culinary Journey with Nature's Bounty

Immerse yourself in the joy of cooking with a propane grill and all the essential cooking implements, pots, pans, and dishware for four, thoughtfully supplied for your culinary adventures. A portable camping sink is conveniently available below for washing up after a scrumptious meal. Consider bringing an additional cooler with ice for your drinks, enhancing your outdoor dining experience.

Dog-Friendly Haven

The Hobbit's Nest is not only a magical retreat for humans but also a welcoming haven for your furry friends. We understand that dogs are cherished family members, and we are delighted to offer a dog-friendly environment where your canine companions can join in on the adventure. We never charge an extra fee for dogs, so feel free to bring your beloved pup along for a joyous escapade amidst the treetops.

Magical Moments Amidst Nature

As guests of the Hobbit's Nest, you'll share 42 acres of densely wooded Lost Pines Forest with the owners, two short-term rental guest houses, and another charming treehouse. Wander through shaded trails, observing wildlife as they play amongst the trees. The treehouse overlooks a small pond adorned with lily pads and frequented by a symphony of frogs, setting the stage for tranquil sunsets and serene evenings spent stargazing.

A World of Adventure Awaits

Venture beyond the treehouse to explore the wonders of Bastrop and its surrounding areas. Just 8 miles away, Bastrop State Park beckons with its enticing trails and refreshing swimming pool. The Colorado River and kayak rentals are a short 10-mile drive away, offering water enthusiasts endless possibilities for exploration. For antique enthusiasts, the nearby antique stores and the renowned Round Top antique fair promise an unforgettable shopping experience. Don't forget to visit the Sherwood Forest Faire site, only 6 miles away, where you can step back in time to the days of knights and jesters.

A Day in Lost Pines of Shire
Place is awesome, peaceful, private and the tree house is quite magical. The only cons was the compost toilet, everyone was awkward to use it. Other than that, it was a great weekend get away.

Awesome Stay
We recently stayed here for my husband’s birthday and it was a nice getaway. The room was very clean and you can tell the owners take really good care of the property. Room was nice and cool upon arrival and had everything we needed. The kids enjoyed the outside play activities and s’mores around the fire pit.

Best little getaway
My boyfriend and I took this trip to get some nature time in away from the city. The experience was better than I could have imagined; there were so many little touches to the property and it was also minimal at the same time. I loved that there wasn’t a tv or wifi. Truly immersed in nature and we enjoyed the trails and sitting by the fire at night. 10/10 recommend.

Refreshing Respite at the Hobbit's Nest Treehouse
A magical place and lovely respite from the busyness of life in nearby Austin. We arrived in the afternoon and the room was nicely cooled by an in-room system. It operated quietly and allowed a comfortable nap. The outdoor deck was simply decorated with comfy sitting chairs and a small table. Great place to read and hang out amongst the trees and the birds. We'll definitely be back (but we didn't love the Keurig; no instructions and we'd never used one before....would much prefer a small "mr. coffee"!)

Rustic
The hobbit house was perfect except for the toilet issue. The toilet next to our room was not working and we didn’t find out until we got there. They provided an rv toilet but it was downstairs. It was not convenient at night.

Beautiful place, even in the rain
Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves. The house itself is very charming. We arrived in the rain and had planned on grilling for dinner and we were actually still able to do so as the area under the house was dry. We walked around the trails and my kids went back by themselves a couple times to explore and had a great time.

We absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay at The Hobbits Nest. The treehouse is absolutely beautiful and so unique. The privacy, the treehouse, and the outdoor nature part of our stay was exactly what we were looking for. I was very hesitant about the outdoor shower, but for me, it was actually the best part of my stay! Lol we will definitely be back!
