Camp Lucy: Hill Country retreat full of history, activities and hidden gems
DRIPPING SPRINGS, Texas - What started as a wedding venue in 2010 has become a nearly 300-acre Hill Country retreat full of history, activities and hidden gems.
Camp Lucy, in Dripping Springs, offers guests a variety of activities such as archery, hatchet throwing, yoga, hiking, fishing, s'mores roasting, vineyard tours, cocktail and olive oil tasting classes, and most recently animal husbandry, giving guests the opportunity to help with the chickens.
On any given day, guests can see a range of wildlife roaming around the property, including deer, turkeys, armadillos and javelinas, among others. There are also an array of different songbirds to search for throughout the property’s wooded areas, and Dripping Springs is a designated bird-watching destination and International Dark Sky Community.
Tillie's
Tille's is an American-Nouveau restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day and brunch on the weekend.
The restaurant is named after Atilla Hancock, the great-grandmother of Camp Lucy owner Whit Hank, who was a world traveler that brought her international discoveries to Austin.
Just in time for summer, Tillie's culinary team has crafted a special menu of pool snacks and summer cocktails for guests to enjoy while they relax by the pool – with pool service launching on May 1.
