Austin’s vibrant art and nightlife scene inspired a space that encourages friends and family to unite and celebrate while reconnecting with nature. The Hundred Acre Wood is a new event space located 20 miles east of downtown Austin in Manor, TX. It’s available for fairs, festivals, camping events, private parties and retreats.
Activities and Entertainment
This beautiful landscape offers everything from wooded seclusion under beautiful shade trees, to large open meadows for staged events, concerts, and stargazing. There is a stocked pond for fishing, and soft earth to pitch a tent on. The Hundred Acre Wood has plenty of room to safely burn a blazing bonfire or set off a spectacular fire works show. It is the perfect spot for your next extraordinary event!
The possibilities are endless at the Hundred Acre Wood. Let our friendly staff prepare a customized scavenger hunt, geo caching quest, or romantic picnic; or create your own adventure by taking a canoe on the pond, hiking, or biking. Make memories that last a lifetime with outdoor family activities like roasting marshmallows in a bonfire, cooking on the grill, playing croquet, flying a kite, or just soaking up sun on the dock. We have plenty of room to create the perfect outdoor movie theater, or fabulous dance floor! Celestial events and moon cycles are posted on the website, so your next event will be “out of this world.”
Our mission
Our mission is to provide a space where people can create special events that bring friends and family together and closer to nature in a private retreat where they can relax, renew, play, celebrate and experience a renaissance of wonder.
Our goals
We are conscious of our environmental footprint and strive to minimize our consumption and waste for less impact. We select the most eco friendly products for use at The Hundred Acre Wood. Every event recycles. We are designing and contracting for compostable toilets, rainwater showers, solar powered stages, and renewable wind energy.
We intend to reserve several acres for an organic farm, where locals can come for fresh produce. This will benefit the community and our environment. Growing food locally saves the energy required to ship it across the country while your produce ripens, and it insures that your veggies will be fresh and delicious!
Our goal is to be fully self sustainable by 2010.
Coming soon
This year, we have exciting plans to enhance The Hundred Acre Wood with new recreational amenities. We will be installing a nine-hole disc golf course for fun and leisurely competition. For the warm summer days, we will have a one-acre swimming pond, with a pavilion and floating deck. We are designing a labyrinth for our guests to find themselves in as they relax or meditate.
