🌅 Lakefront Safari Tent #7 – “The Longhorn” at Cameron Ranch Glamping
Welcome to The Longhorn, a lakefront safari tent by Cameron Ranch Glamping, developed in partnership with GLAT Austin inside Lake Bastrop North Shore Park. Just one hour from downtown Austin, this spacious tent combines Texas charm, nature, and comfort — perfect for families or small groups looking for a relaxing lakeside getaway.
