Weekend Trip to The Fabulous Bok Vegas, Texas

The cabin is so cute! Much bigger on the inside than it looks. A great get away for friends and family. The dogs were super friendly and hung out with us while we looked at the stars!

Had a great time! The animals are adorable! The trails are fantastic full of berries to pick! Hosts were very accommodating and gave us a tour! We will definitely be back. The house dogs were the best part for us. They treat you like family!

The Fabulous Bok Vegas, Texas

52 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents25 acres · Palestine, TX

If you're yearning for a day filled with laughter, learning, and heartwarming encounters, the Fabulous Bok Vegas Petting Zoo (open by appointment - under construction), RV Park and Campground is a destination you shouldn't miss. Farm Day Passes are also available. Whether you're a local looking for a peaceful escape or a traveler seeking unique experiences, this charming sanctuary promises an unforgettable adventure. You can enjoy hiking, wildlife, interacting with farm animals at the Fabulous Bok Vegas Interactive Petting Zoo, tours, educational presentations, archery and more. The farm is close to fishing at Lake Palestine, First Monday in Canton and shopping in historical Palestine and Athens town squares. We are a family owned and operated 25-acre farm. We log and mill our own wood for construction projects, so expect to see stacks of limbs here and there as we continue to expand, especially during a burn ban.
