About The Bird's Nest

Welcome to The Bird’s Nest, a one-of-a-kind “primitive glamping” experience that will take you to new heights. Your journey begins with a short walk down uneven stone steps to your multi-level accommodation.

Perched on a 400-square-foot deck The Nest offers an amazing view of Horseshoe Bay. The covered portion of The Nest is designed with an open concept, not completely waterproof as it opens to the hammock lounge and viewing deck high on top. There is a small area of the nest that we call “The Egg” - a place to stay dry should there be rain. The Egg can be curtained off to utilize the air conditioner or heater – but please keep in mind that The Nest is still a tent with thin walls so it can still get warm on a hot summer day (evenings are usually cool) and can be cold in the winter. (We do provide an electric blanket on cold nights.)

The Bird’s Nest offers you four unique places to lay down and spread your wings:

  1. Main room has a queen-size bed, mini fridge, Keurig, and microwave.
  2. “The Hangout” underneath the nest has a hanging bed with queen-size mattress.
  3. And at the very top of The Bird’s Nest is comfortable seating and a fire place to enjoy the stars and share the sweet moments!

The Bird’s Nest has a private restroom and shower located at the top of the hill (about 50 steps away).

Guests are provided with a bin that includes a double sleeping bag, a set of sheets, blanket, and two pillows – you get to choose which of the four sleeping spaces you would like for the evening!

***Note: The Bird’s Nest is for sure-footed adults only. The stone steps leading to the nest are uneven, and climbing a ladder is involved to get to the top viewing deck. Additionally, the walkway to the Hangout (under the deck) may be slippery and uneven depending on the weather. Also please note that The Bird’s Nest is not as insulated as some of our other accommodations, and could get warm on a hot summer day, and cool during a winter evening. If you have any questions about this unique accommodation please ask. The Bird’s Nest has electricity (and places to charge your devices) but does not have water on the deck (but there is a private restroom with a full-size/hot shower up the hill). Although there is a gate to the Bird’s Nest, we ask that you do not leave any valuables while you are away. Please be aware there is no Alexa or wifi available as this location due to its location.

What Our Guests Are Saying...

This was a very unique experience. The place is beautiful and the staff is so attentive. It was very easy to check in. We stayed in the “Birds Nest” and we absolutely loved it! The pictures online does not do it justice. The place is beautiful and unique! We will definitely come back to check out one of the other “rooms”

Nearby activities: We only stayed on Saturday night, they have taco trucks (within walking distance) a live band was playing, there was a with sitting area (you can bring your own chair) they also have a playground for the kids and pickleball

This was an amazing place to go for a honeymoon. Very unique experience. As well as lots of amenities and beautiful view! Would stay again and planning to in the future. The service was amazing and super responsive and helpful if you needed anything as well as friendly. Would recommend to friends and family.
Rooms: The rooms were super fun and beautiful as well as very cozy and comfortable also gave us a free cup!
Nearby activities: Tennis, fancy restaurant, beautiful places to walk around.
Safety: Safe place that feels away from everything but close by to some restaurants stores and activities such as tennis etc

Best date night ever. This place is amazing. We stayed it the wings suite and it did not disappoint. Very romantic watching the sun set over the lake and waking up early to a beautiful sunrise. The room was fantastic and everything was first class. We will defiantly be back!
