About this space

Cosmic Nights is a modern chic Indonesian inspired very private “one of a kind Hill Country bucket list experience” for couples to “Recharge and Reconnect.”

Imagine looking up at the dark sky covered in stars while soaking in your private hot tub by a brilliant fire, sitting on the swing listening to the fountain, and maybe even enjoying a movie on our big screen, as if this wasn’t enough. Or maybe you want to walk down to the river for some kayaking and swimming. This place is magical.

The space

We put the GLAMP in glamping.  Trust me you are not roughing it at Safari for the Soul.  During the summer months, most of our guest spend time swimming on a finger of Lake Travis/Colorado River with Hill Country views (prop a beach chair up on the nearby sand bar), or go kayaking in the river or fishing.

Night time is magical at Cosmic Nights as it has a 6-person amazing hot tub that is positioned to allow you to enjoy a fire while simultaneously watching a movie on the outside movie screen/projector.

We also offer two complementary shared single kayaks for all guest to enjoy.

Other things to note

On food:

The most convenient option is to use our propane grill with complementary propane. For the true campers, cooking over a campfire is a fun part of the camping experience, so you’ll have your own personal fire pit with a grill top right outside your tent. You will need to buy firewood & fire starter to help get you off to the right start!

A few tips for the grill-inclined:
– Think classic: burgers, sausages, steaks, kebabs, etc.
– Disposable metal pans seem to work best
– Nearest grocers are H-E-B in Marble Falls (supermarket, 15 min) and Smithwick Market to the right outside the main entrance gate(local, 5 min)

You’ll have a small fridge and freezer as well. If you aren’t planning on grilling, alternate food options are 10 minutes away in Marble Falls and so we recommend planning ahead for groceries /ice and restaurant dining/take out.

Onsite Activities:
– Watching the Sunset over the Colorado River
– Swimming in the Lake/aka Colorado River that’s a part of Lake Travis

– Go fishing and catch some large catfish, gar, perch or bass
