Great value compared to what other parts of Austin is offering. It’s an ambitious project and this definitely shows in some ways—long times between grass cuts and too many people taking a shower at once can mean fairly low water pressure. It’s also a drive into town so if you’re hoping to party while taking in the many live music nights that Austin offers—which is every night of the week—expect a $30 Lyft one way or get comfortable finding a designated driver or keeping it to one beverage for the evening. There are other RVs on the site and so, with all communal type spaces, it may be a crap shoot as to who else is on scene. I lucked out and every one was quite cool and well aware of boundaries and the need for personal time. I had the Sea Shell and, albeit small for one and dog(s), was probably the most private of all, despite being the first RV from the driveway. The fence is tall, the deck quite raised, and I flew a flag from the walkway opening which afforded me a bit more privacy for when I only wanted to enjoy the uninterrupted view of the sky and trees with some tunes playing.
Be comfortable with backing up with a moonshiners turn to get situated for driving face forward out of the driveway and know that it’s a steep driveway that is easy to miss. It took me a couple of turn arounds before I knew what landmarks to look for and begin to slow down whenever I returned to the place. There are taco trucks along 183; taco trucks abound really. Great for some quick, easy, and tasty lunches/dinners….and apparently some breakfast tacos.
Bonus is that DoorDash and Instacart will deliver! The options are few but it was nice to have some take out delivered for the days one does not want to cook or trek out for groceries. Sophie and the gang will work to accommodate you in any reasonable way—they were cool with me having some mail delivered to the place and this was much appreciated. Sophie also shared their documentary they made with me and, as soon as I find a DVD player, I look forward to seeing it! Good luck with the rest of the project on the outskirts of Austin.
