"Big Willie" 1976 Airstream Excella 500
1976 Airstream Excella
Big Willie offers all the uniqueness of a vintage Airstream in a lovingly upgraded high class remodel: entirely white throughout with real wood & hand-wrought iron, tiled bathroom, custom cushions- finished out with a full bar, all you need to cook, lounge and enjoy the outdoors too! (though you won't want to get out of the uber -comfortable Queen bed!)
It includes a tankless hot water heater, electric heater, air conditioning, stainless steel faucets w/ porcelain sinks and other high-end components.
With a true TX hill-country spirit, it's just the right amount of cowboy / cowgirl chic for a ranch get-together, or a weekend getaway.
We'll do the hook-ups and set up for y'all!
Big Willie comes with all clean linens, sheets & towels, all dish / glassware, cookware and utensils (including a blender, coffee press, toaster ), 2x camping chairs; fire pit upon request!
We're happy to deliver within a 80 mile (ish) radius OR offer a stay in its home base: a super private setting in S. Austin (complete with chiminea, garden & lights, table and chairs, and more) from which to explore Austin!

We're middle aged couple with kids in college, and (new!) time on our hands to adventure out! We've had a blast in Big Willie and want to be able to share the experience when not using ourselves. Our favorite spots are in the Tx hill country, but this type of trailer is great for glamping in any setting. We hope you'll love it too!

This is our 6th time renting Big Willie and we are always delighted by the experience. Everything is always seamless, clean, and so cute. It’s everything we want/need it to be. Style, efficiency and comfort altogether in this space. We love it and will always book Big Willie!

We had a great time renting Big Willie for a long Memorial Day weekend. Pick-up and delivery made things so easy. We will definitely look forward to another weekend getaway with Big Willie!

We rented Big Willie for my husband's surprise 50th b-day. It was so much fun. Daniel and his wife were incredible. They delivered and set up, even including a bar and cute decorations. The linens and bed were super comfy and even though it was in the 30s at night, we were warm and cozy. Thanks for an awesome experience!

Thank you Kristen! It was a fun experience for us too - to deliver to that cool hill country spot, meet y'all and discover Albert, TX! We'd be happy to do again any time! (and thank you for taking such good care and leaving Big Willie in spotless condition!) Glad we could contribute to the 50th!

They showed up at the appointed time and worked with us on a perfect site placement. The trailer was fantastic and very clean and comfortable. Exactly as advertised. Owners were very nice and professional.

Thank you Big Willie for making the trip to my Lakehouse. It provided extra sleeping and it is magical at nite looking into the sky at the stars thru your windows. Unbelievable clean non cluttered interior. Upgraded shower and sink. I hope to reserve you at a later date again !!!
