Granbury Glamping!

My family lives in Granbury and we decided to have a fun staycation weekend in town. We enjoyed our stay here and absolutely loved the perfect spot by the water. What you see in the pictures is exactly what you get. Awesome place, beautiful scenery, and very convenient to town. Perfect place for those who enjoy the glamping lifestyle! We will stay again at some point!

Disconnected and loving it

I had three boys with me and we intended to keep things simple - bbq, fish, fire, and kayak. We had everything we needed and our host was responsive and lovely. Can’t wait to come back.

Fun Getaway

Brought my boys for a quick getaway before school started. They loved staying on a bus, kayaking and fishing, and showering outside. Everything was clean and well thought out. Host was very helpful and responded quickly to questions. Will definitely recommend!

Adorable couple retreat

The design and vision of this bus and outdoor bathroom were amazing. My husband, dog and I had a good few days away from the world. The property is in thr side yard of a home. We would recommend it to friends.

Excellent personal retreat

The bus was the perfect size for my 4 day personal retreat. Very creatively and beautifully appointed. The location is amazing and the serene treed lot beside the lake was perfect for resetting and rejuvenation. The outdoor shower and baths room was secure and a nice experience. They have everything you need. The WiFi was strong so I could easily work remotely. I will be back.

A great weekend getaway!

My husband and I loved our stay here! It was so unique, very clean, and so comfortable. The bus is well stocked with everything, the beds are soft, and the bathroom was very nice. Lots of bugs, but that’s to be expected and they weren’t crazy. My only note is that I wish there was more separation between the other rental properties. Window covers were provided, but the area was blocked off by a short wall and people at the property next to us often were close. It didn’t feel private. Other than that, it was amazing!

Mommy and me trip!

My 7 year old daughter and I loved our stay. It was just what we needed to get away from our busy lives. We were tech free for most of the trip so the bus brought out lots of creative ways to interact. We played bus driver and passenger. The games inside and out of the bus were a plus! Uno is my fav! The bus had many amenities. We loved kayaking and sitting on the patio in the evening. Not to mention the gorgeous fruit trees on the property. The outdoor bathroom was fun and outdoorsy. This was definitely a great place to stay!

Nice Getaway

This was a very peaceful, laid back place to stay. The access to the lake is at the end of a canal. Therefore, boats are not in the area and do not disturb floating/swimming/kayaking in the lake. The rest of the property was clean and well kept. The outdoor bathroom was nice and the shower was amazing! The bus was so cute. The close-quarter living was fun! The queen bed was extremely comfortable. There was plenty of room to sit for relaxing, watching tv or eating. All the appliances you could need for cooking and grilling are provided. I did make food ahead of time and warmed it in the microwave, so I didn’t have to cook much. The air conditioner kept the bus cool even in these hot July temps in Texas. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Jenna

Host profile image
My name is Jenna and I host this property along with my husband, Ty. We have lived in Fort Worth / Granbury for almost 30 years. We LOVE this area! It has grown exponentially over the past few years and there are so many little "pockets" to explore. We put some of our favorites in the description but there is also a digital guidebook available when you check in that is FULL of amazing experiences all over the city!
I am an entrepreneur and in addition to designing and booking our properties, I also own a local retail store (Winton and Waits) located in a revitalized area of FW just south of downtown. Our luxury bath products are made locally as well as our jewelry/accessory lines - carried in retailers all over the US including Crate & Barrel, Francesca's and Free People. We have left some products for you to enjoy during your stay. You can also shop our goods locally in Granbury on the square at a shop called St Helens.
Be sure to follow us on Instagram - @wintonandwaits for our retail store and @staywithwintonandwaits for our properties. Tag us with your pictures while you are here as well and we will post you on our stories.

Ty and I are what we call "Modern Nomads" moving between our properties in between our guests. I am a designer and Ty is a builder - so we remodel and decorate on the weekends in between our "real jobs." We hope you will follow our adventures on Instagram @lifeofthemodernnomads

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this spot on the lake! It is the location where Lake Granbury meets the Brazos River and Long Creek. It is remote but still accessible to town. Nothing will ever be built across the street from the house because the land is owned by a grass farm....country life at its best! The sunsets from the back porch are unreal. The sunrises from the front of the Skoolie window are equally breathtaking. You can spot deer and all species of birds out near the water. You can hear a family of owls hooting at night when you are out watching the stars. It is just a dreamy place and we immediately feel relaxed every time we pull up the drive. The inside has been professionally designed with a unique mural on the ceiling. This is not your ordinary camping experience....it is elevated "glamping" for sure! Every effort has been made to ensure you have a 5 star stay!
