Honor Mom with Hill Country Magic: A Glamping Escape She’ll Cherish

TL;DR: Mother's Day Glamping in Texas
Skip the crowded restaurants and treat Mom to a peaceful, pampering escape this Mother’s Day at Talula Mesa Glamping Resort in the Texas hill country near Austin. Talula Mesa's stunning boho/cowboy style tents provide a dramatically eye-catching, ultra-comfortable, luxurious retreat. Just an hour from Austin, this luxe glamping spot offers quiet, privacy, and nature. Think hot tubs, hammocks, coffee on a tent porch, stargazing, and wildflowers. Add extras like a massage, paddleboarding, or brunch at a nearby vineyard. Bonus: surprise her with in-tent flowers. It's the kind of soul-soothing weekend she’ll remember forever.
A Holiday for Moms
Show the mom or wife in your life just how much you revere and adore her by pampering her at Talula Mesa Glamping Resort. Nothing says "I love you," and, "I appreciate you more than words can say" more than doting on someone. We all want be spoiled, nourished, and cared for sometimes. On Mother's Day, instead of wading through another crowded suburban restaurant, I'd rather be sleeping in or sipping hazelnut coffee in the cool morning air on a safari tent porch. I bet the woman you're celebrating would agree.
Allow her to relax in a hammock or hot tub. Or nap in the tent. Let her fully unwind.
Peace, Quiet, and Privacy: The Salve for a Busy Life
The stillness and quiet at Talula Mesa are so remarkable that it's often the first thing our glamping guests comment on. (see for yourself: read our reviews) Sometimes you don't realize how accustomed you've become to road noise and city/suburban life until you're listening to hummingbirds in the dappled morning light shining through the live oak canopy outside your cowboy tent. When is the last time you gazed at the stars while listening to the lullaby of high-pitched yipping of coyotes far off in the distance? These things happen almost daily at Talula Mesa. Every mom I know would be absolutely thrilled with that kind of peace on Mother's Day, or any day.

Let Nature Soothe Your Soul
We all need more nature in our lives. That's what Mother's Day glamping in Texas is all about. Soak in the sunlight, smell the hill country air, watch the fuzzy bumblebees gently gathering nectar from pink salvia. This spring, antelope milkweed and prairie verbena are blooming, which means butterflies are whimsically flying through all day long. Down the street even more wildflowers are blooming at Turkey Bend Recreation Area, where you're invited to take our paddleboards and kayaks for a dip in the lake. When is the last time you saw a sunset from the water?

"We relished our escape to Talula Mesa Glamping. I hadn't realized how much I craved alone time with my hubby until we spent an afternoon in the hammock and an evening in the hot tub. We can't wait to come back."
