Weekend Trip to Texas Safari Camp

The place is truly secluded and perfect for a weekend getaway! The host was super kind and gracious, the property was beautiful and well maintained! It'd be perfect for a youth retreat or camping with your kids. I'll definitely be back.

1 night at Salt Ranch Dallas

Great spot just outside of Dallas! The ranch is super easy to get to from both 80 and 30. Simple entry and parking too! Hosts are very helpful and accommodating!

Weekend Trip to Texas Safari Camp

Randall was very accommodating and had great communication! I stayed in the treehouse with my 2 kids and we all loved it and slept well. Its a very peaceful area and we were able to enjoy waking up next to the pond, catching a few fish and getting on the water with kayaks and paddleboards that were available to use. Definitely made some memories!

Weekend Trip to Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

This was our second time at Liberty Hill Hideaway. We’ve been trying to make it back since our first trip and will be going back again. Barry has whatever you’re looking for there. As glamping or dispersed as you want. It’s a great spot to get away and relax. The best thing about this place is Barry, he’s an amazing host and couldn’t be more welcoming and accommodating.

Weekend Trip to Texas Safari Camp

We had a great time camping here. The spot we had was surrounded with trees and pretty secluded, it provided us privacy. In the morning, I love watching sunrise in front of the pond. By nightfall, you can hear the sound of nature- birds and more. It was a very relaxing weekend. Randall was a pleasant host. Long hikes are not possible, but there are pathways to walk around. Great option for primitive campers. Water is available but you need to walk from point A to B. Overall experience, great!

Weekend Trip to Hopz n Skootz: Camping & Fishing

We had a great time at this camp site. Very pretty site not to far from DFW. The host was very nice and helpful. We look forward to staying again soon.

Weekend Trip to Llama Land Ranch

Best campsite I’ve found! Llamas are really sweet and the site is well taken care of. There are dogs/cats that roam the property, so make sure you don’t leave any trash out. Great site, easy check in.

Weekend Trip to Salt Ranch Dallas

I really enjoyed my stay here. The hosts were super kind and came out in a rainstorm to make sure I got settled. I was very comfortable there!

1 night at Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

I loved my stay at the Daisy camper with my two pups. Barry is so welcoming and kind. The neighborhood dog Buster was adorable and so sweet and played well with my dogs. I would definitely recommend this stay!

26 nights at Lindale, Coyote Camping/Yurt/Tiny

Every time I come through, the coyote campground is my hip camp of choice. The town is bustling only 6 miles away, the campsites are spacious, and there's even a dog park being fenced in for camping pups! The free roaming mini goats are the best 😀

Weekend Trip to Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

This is the second time we’ve been here and it was a great as the first! It’s an amazing gem and are so happy to have found Barry’s place!

Weekend Trip to Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

I had such a wonderful time visiting this campsite! Barry the host was just wonderful, extremely accommodating and great company. I would recommend a stay here to anyone! My boyfriend and I did a little fishing, some swimming, enjoyed music by campfire but still got to catch the clippers game ;) perfect glamping/getaway destination!

Weekend Trip to Llama Land Ranch

Our small Girl Scout troop really enjoyed a laid back first time tent camping experience here at Llamaland Ranch. We opted for the pavilion site so we had access to running water, electric outlets, a really nice grill, and a small mini fridge. It was the perfect set up and for an experienced camper like myself it really felt like glamping. Judy and her son were very helpful and friendly. They provided plenty of feed for us to feed the Llamas and we didn't have any issues with them. The llamas were very gentle and curious. They came and went several times during our stay to visit us and other people in the other campsites. It was a beautiful place and I plan to come back out with family and friends in the future!

Weekend Trip to Heavenly Haven & Hideaways

Very well put together campsite. Clean, comfortable, and a great place to unwind.

1 night at Texas Safari Camp

Very beautiful place!!! The host is very nice and extremely accommodating!

Weekend Trip to Heavenly Haven & Hideaways

I thoroughly enjoyed camping in my RV in site 1. Being surrounded by woods and the countryside location, allowed me to recharge through nature. The hosts even fixed me up with kindling in the fire pit so I could enjoy a campfire at night. What a thoughtful touch!

Weekend Trip to Liberty Hill Hideaway Lake Retreat

I cannot put into words how magical this place is! Barry was really nice, greeted us upon arrival and then gave us space to venture out and explore the land. He even came out with his guitar and joined us around the campfire with some good tunes (I told him I wanted to hear him play!). Just all around good vibes and will definitely be going back! Thank you Barry for sharing this gem of a place with us.

Besides being surrounded by beautiful scenery, it just feels good being here. Getting out and exploring is a wonderful escape from the everyday grind. We love hosting campers and work toward making sure folks feel welcome and comfortable. We were living in the north Dallas area but always had a desire to buy some land and have a little more 'elbow room'. We were avid RVers for many years, but when that chapter closed, we missed 'glamping'. When we found our property, we knew we wanted to share this beauty, nature, and space with others as a campground. Heavenly Haven & Hideaways has been a God-inspired project, born out of our love for people, adventure, and the outdoors. Our beautiful property has RV and tent camping and we also have 2 cabins for short and mid-term rental. Access pictures and booking for the cabins via our website: heavenlyhavenandhideaways.com There's easy access to our family and pet-friendly campground in Tyler, Texas. We've set up a large communal firepit and fun outdoor games like tether ball, a volleyball net, horseshoes, and more. There's an open field for frisbee or tossing a ball around. We've cut in some trails that you can hike and explore our 60-acre property that includes an always-running creek. We're within a few miles of Tyler State Park which is great for bike riding & swimming in their lake. You can also rent paddle boats there. We're within a few miles of the Tyler Zoo -which is a surprisingly excellent zoo. There are several museums, shopping areas, and great food establishments in and around Tyler.

First Monday Canton Texas RV Park

22 sites · RVsCanton, TX

Nestled in the heart of Canton, Texas, the First Monday Trade Days is a unique and historic event that has evolved from its humble beginnings in the 1850s. Originally, the circuit judge would convene on the first Monday of each month, attracting locals who came to conduct business, stock their pantries, and witness court proceedings, including the occasional hanging. One notable case involved a man executed for stealing a wagon of goods, and he is buried facing south in Hillcrest Cemetery, near the First Monday grounds. As the event grew, vendors began bringing their own goods, produce, and livestock to sell or trade, creating a vibrant marketplace just off the west side of the courthouse square. The trading of wild horses, rounded up from the surrounding region, became a significant part of the local economy and culture. By 1965, the First Monday Trade Days had outgrown its original location in the Town Square, prompting the City of Canton to purchase six acres just two blocks north of the courthouse to accommodate the expanding event. While it initially took place only on the first Monday of each month, the event has since transformed into a four-day extravaganza, running from Thursday to Sunday. Despite this change, the name First Monday Trade Days remains a cherished tradition, drawing visitors

Camping at Cedar Creek Reservoir guide

Overview

Escaping the Big D couldn’t be easier—this idyllic lakeside retreat lies barely an hour’s drive from the city. Not only is Cedar Creek Reservoir one of Texas's largest lakes, but it’s one of Dallas’ prime vacation spots, dotted with lavish lakeside villas, fine dining restaurants, and country club golf courses. Bring your boat, kayak, or water skis to cruise the lake, cool off with a swim, or seek out a tranquil cove to fish for bass and catfish. Spring through fall is the most popular time for camping around the lake, when the lakeside RV parks can get busy, but many stay open year-round.

Where to go

Dallas

The city sights are just an hour’s drive away, whether you want to catch a Dallas Cowboys game, visit the John F. Kennedy memorial, or get your culture fix in the Arts District. Urban campers have options in Dallas too. Lake Lavon and Lake Ray Hubbard have waterfront campgrounds, swimming beaches, and leafy parks right on the cusp of the city, while RV parks and cabins dot the shores of Lake Lewisville to the north.

East Dallas Lakes

North of Cedar Creek, lake lovers will find plenty of places to get on the water. Check into the lakefront campground at Lake Tawakoni State Park or head to one of the lake’s RV parks with easy access to the boat launches and fishing coves. Nearby, Lake Fork has several marinas and lakeside golf courses, while further north, Sulphur Springs is the gateway to Cooper Lake State Park on the shores of Jim Chapman Lake.

Texas Pineywoods

Vast expanses of rolling woodlands blanket the Texas Piney Woods, where adventurers can hike, mountain bike, rock climb, and zipline through the forest. Miles of hiking trails lead the way through the Davy Crockett, Angelina, and Sabine National Forests, where you can choose between developed campgrounds and backcountry camping or seek out a glamping getaway in the woods.
