13. Chic tent on an expansive rural property (from USD 29)

This stunning property is approximately 5 minutes from the Circut of the Americas and 20 minutes from the heart of Austin. The deck for the glamping tent is located at the back of a 5-acre (2-hectare) property.

The location is secluded from the noise and bustle of the city. As you might expect in a rural area of Texas, the scenery will be primarily woods and grasslands. Please keep in mind that there are four other units on the site, all of which have guests, and you are thus not wholly alone. You may take a break in the garden with a bench. Keep in mind that there is no internet here. However, there are outlets and charging stations within the tent for your electronic devices. The hotel provides complimentary parking on site.
