ÖÖD is excited to announce the opening of its newest location in the US: two award-winning ÖÖD Mirror Houses nestled within the peaceful landscape of Lake Bastrop, just 45 minutes from downtown Austin, opening on the 14th of May, 2025.
Each of the two signature ÖÖD Mirror Houses is carefully positioned to reflect the surrounding forest, seamlessly blending modern luxury with immersive natural beauty. The 180-degree mirror walls create a striking yet subtle presence, allowing the architecture to blend into the trees while guests enjoy a luxurious private retreat with uninterrupted views of nature from three sides.
“We’re thrilled to expand our presence in Texas with this beautifully situated site at Lake Bastrop. What makes this location so special is the balance it strikes - our Mirror Houses offer a sense of total privacy and immersion in nature, yet you’re only a short drive from Austin. Whether you’re seeking a quiet retreat or looking to be more social with other Lake Bastrop South Shore Park guests, it’s all possible here.”
Andreas Tiik - CEO & Co-Founder of ÖÖD
Paradise stone's throw away from Austin
Lake Bastrop’s location offers the ideal balance of accessibility and serenity. Less than an hour from the heart of Austin, guests can easily make the trip for a weekend escape or a spontaneous midweek reset. Though close to the city, the site feels entirely off-grid, surrounded by tall pines, open skies, and the stillness of Lake Bastrop.
Built in Partnership with LCRA Parks and Cameron Ranch Glamping
ÖÖD at Austin is a second ÖÖD retreat in Texas after Cameron Ranch Glamping, the initial ÖÖD retreat near Houston known for offering a unique blend of design, comfort, and nature. With guidance from LCRA Parks through park development and the guest experience insights from Cameron Ranch Glamping, the new location brings an evolved experience that is intimate and integrated into the environment.
“I’m beyond excited to partner with ÖÖD and LCRA Parks to bring our signature glamping experience to the peaceful, nature-filled setting of Lake Bastrop’s South Shore Park. We launched Cameron Ranch Glamping with a mission to promote mental health and sustainability, and this expansion is a continuation of that vision. Collaborating with such incredible partners allows us to create spaces where people can disconnect from the noise, reconnect with loved ones, and be reminded that the world is better with everyone in it.”
Garrett Brown - CEO & Co-Founder of Cameron Ranch Glamping
Adventure at Your Doorstep
Guests of Lake Bastrop will have direct access to a variety of outdoor experiences: canoeing across calm lake waters, fishing, hiking scenic forest trails, enjoying a round of golf and more. The stay is designed to flow effortlessly from rest to recreation, with nature and adventures integrated into the experience of ÖÖD at Austin.
A Stay Designed for Slow Mornings and Starry Nights
From sipping coffee while deer pass by to unwinding beneath the stars, every detail of the guest experience is curated with care. Inside, amenities like board games, a record player, and cosy lighting offer space for connection, creativity, and calm.
