Bastrop Party Bus, Limo & Coach Bus Rental

Bastrop is unlike anywhere else in Central Texas. While the surrounding landscape is typical Hill Country limestone and cedar, Bastrop sits within the Lost Pines -- an isolated pocket of loblolly pine forest that is one hundred miles separated from the nearest East Texas pine belt. Scientists believe these pines are remnants of a forest that once covered a much larger area, left behind as the climate changed over thousands of years. The result is a landscape that feels like East Texas transplanted to the Hill Country -- tall pines, sandy soil, and a distinctly different character from the surrounding terrain. Bastrop State Park, created in the 1930s and built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, protects a portion of the Lost Pines and features hiking trails, fishing ponds, a swimming pool, and historic CCC-built stone cabins. The park was severely impacted by a 2011 wildfire but has recovered beautifully, with new pine growth creating a landscape of renewal and resilience. Downtown Bastrop has experienced its own renewal. Main Street is now a thriving arts and dining district with restaurants like Maxine's (upscale comfort food in a historic building), Neighbor's Kitchen (farm-to-table dining), and Red House BBQ. Art galleries, boutiques, and the Bastrop Opera House complete the picture. The Colorado River runs through town, providing kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing opportunities. McKinney Roughs Nature Park, managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority, offers eleven hundred acres of trails along the river with dramatic bluffs and diverse ecosystems. A party bus from Austin to Bastrop covers thirty-eight minutes of scenic east-side driving. The bus handles the group logistics and provides a comfortable base for exploring the Lost Pines and downtown Bastrop. Call 512-900-8324.
