Mystic Quarry

Well kept. Good service

The staff went out of the way to take care of us

We found our new “go to” spot in Canyon Lake! A plethora of amenities, perfect location, cabin was awesome, and our two dogs were as welcome as could be!!!

We had a GREAT time. The housing, pool, games and more was wonderful. We will stay there again. Staff was friendly and helpful. Very close to restaurants, the river for tubing and Canyon Lake for fishing, skiing, boating or just relaxing in the water.

BTW, there's no free parking! Additional car will range $5 to $10 daily depending on season... The facilities were clean, gameroom was fun (when you can get into it, the door handle was broken), fun grass games. We utilized the fire pit on those cold nights ♨️🏕 MQ Staff Madison and Austin were great and very accommodating. They were professional but yet caring, the type of energy you need in this RV lifestyle 🤗 Lost one star due to MQ Staff Monica. Her tone is not approachable. You get this feeling that she does not have the time to assist or if she's too busy for you 😞 Other than that... Overall, we enjoyed our Thanksgiving week. Thank you! And we look forward to our next visit at MQ ******* Rooms: Wow. The varity of style "tents" are mind-blowing. Glamping Lodge and safari are our two favorites!!! Every one were well kept and CLEAN! Nearby activities: Soooooo much to do on and off grounds! Never could you be bored, kids too Safety: Wish there was a gate entrance. The play area is in front, and the entrance is right off the main street. Just got to keep watch on Stranger-Dangers. And a leash on the kiddos that like to explore. There's no sidewalk by main road, so it could be dangerous Noteworthy details: Wi-Fi was great. Sometimes, it was slow, BUT we always had connection. Hotel highlights: Luxury, Romantic, and Kid-friendly

Our stay at Mystic Quarry was WONDERFUL! We went with two other families (6 adults, 8 kids under 8) and it was everyone's first tent camping trip (with the exception of myself who grew up camping in the Austin area). I did a lot of research into tent camping + amenities at sites (I was not looking for a super primitive park as we needed this to be young kid and first-timer friendly) within a 2 hour drive from North Austin including state parks and private sites and settled on MQ for a few reasons. It did not disappoint. We stayed at tent camping site 16 for two nights, which was probably my favorite of their power + water sites. Those sites are tucked away on the back of the property, off the road, which is nice, with a little open area and pavilion between them and some of the tiny houses/cabins. Our friends had sites 15 and 14. The site is large and therefore became the group hangout spot. It accommodated an extra large tent, three tables, our vehicle, and all of the camping chairs around the fire just fine. The campground was clean, the charcoal grills worked fine (we cooked breakfast and used the stovetop espresso maker on the grill) and the fire pit at our site -the other two sites needed some pit TLC- while just a ring of random rocks, was a good size for cooking (we cooked dinner and breakfast, hobo pockets, s'mores, and used the stovetop espresso maker on the fire pit). There's also a lidded trash can at each site which was wonderful as they also emptied it each morning. The creekbed backs up to the sites and water feature was close which was perfect for keeping our littles entertained a lot of the time and shallow enough to not feel the need to be super cautious. The "hiking trails" were beginner and kid friendly, short and sweet, good for morning walks or scavenger hunts with the kiddos, and basically outlined the property. The quarry was simple and close but you could potentially have your group out there for campfires and it had a large outdoor screen with seating for maybe a movie or presentation or something. At night it was quiet for the most part, although since it's relatively close to the highway you can hear the cars, and we saw a fox and some deer, as well as a cute cat and the hens/rooster that normally roam but were cooped by the garden as they were slowly being picked off by the fox. The staff was friendly, and while I didn't get the pleasant man's name that checked us in Friday afternoon, I had interactions with Monica a few times and contrary to previous reviewers, she was friendly and patient. Paul, who was the ground's maintenance guy, was extremely friendly, especially towards our kids. He happened to pull up on his cart while we were out and about and let them help collect algae from the waterfall with him, let them into the chicken coop to feed & pet the chickens, and into the hen house where they helped collect eggs. The bath/shower rooms were a short walk, fully functional and clean, and mostly updated with good w
