    The opportunities for Hill Country road trips and getaways continues to grow with the addition of a new luxury RV and tiny home resort in the town of Fredericksburg. The resort is the first-of-its-kind for a popular vacation destination about 70 miles northwest of San Antonio.

    The FireFly Resort is located on 52 acres of land and boasts over 230 sites with gorgeous Hill Country views along several tiered rows. The fully-furnished, uniquely designed tiny homes and the RV sites can connect guests to resort-style amenities such as the two-tiered pool with an infinity water edge, a clubhouse with lounge areas, an outdoor kitchen area with a community refrigerator and grill, long farm-style tables for eating, a community dog park, and much more.

    Each home is outfitted with an in-house washer and dryer, fridge, dishwasher, and wifi.

    The tiny homes can accommodate between two and eight guests depending on the house's size. Each home is outfitted with an in-house washer and dryer, fridge, dishwasher, and wifi. Outside the homes are covered patios with screened porches. A select number of the tiny homes even have direct access to the Firefly pond.

    The RV sites on the property are large enough to accommodate fifth wheels and motorhomes, with extra room for any outdoor seating. Guests can choose their own site, with some having a dedicated green space, or a furnished seating and lounge area, a grill station, or an outdoor fireplace. The RV sites also have complimentary hookups and a concierge service.

    Firefly Resort director of operations Logan Shortridge said in a press release that every guest is meant to feel like a VIP at this new resort.

    “From our luxurious accommodations and upscale amenities to our hospitable staff and their abilities to curate a custom stay, Firefly Resort ensures guests will have a unique and memorable experience,” said Shortridge. “Firefly Resort is close enough to the popular tourist sites to provide a range of entertainment options, yet secluded enough to allow for stargazing. We’re excited to share the beauty of the Hill Country and the unique experience of Firefly with our guests.”

    The resort is only a 15-minute drive from Fredericksburg's thriving main street district, where folks can visit one of the many local shops, eateries, and wine bars that capture the hearts of Texans everywhere.

    WINE escapes

    55 Texas Hill Country wineries uncork month of tastings and deals

    The Texas Hill Country Wineries Wine Lovers Celebration covers 55 wineries.

    Texas winemakers are hoping to play cupid ahead of Valentine’s Day. From January 26 to February 27, more than 55 Hill Country wineries are teaming up to offer complimentary tastings and deals via the Texas Hill Country Wineries Wine Lovers Celebration, a perfect excuse for a romantic retreat.

    The passport program — which is repeated throughout the year for different occasions like Texas Wine Month and wildflower season — encourages visitors to try new wineries and explore the thriving Hill County wine region. The pass covers a complimentary tasting at each venue for up to four visits a day, adding a 10 percent discount on purchases of at least three bottles.

    The passport is organized by Texas Hill Country Wineries, a nonprofit trade association that promotes its member vineyards and the overall winemaking regions. The organization has a busy 2025 launching resources for budding oenophiles, from an interactive regional guide to a daylong wine camp.

    The organization also helps build a future for the Texas wine industry by providing scholarships. $5 from each passport sold will go toward helping Texas students get degrees in viticulture, enology, or hospitality.

    Tickets are available for $65 per person or $100 per couple. The release calculates that the passport starts representing savings on tastings after just five visits.
