Weekend Trip to Texas Safari Camp

Enjoyed staying at the treehouse, beautiful grounds, pretty lake view, peaceful and relaxing. If you get a chance to visit, please do.

Weekend Trip to Glamp like a Champ

Beautiful property with amazing sunsets! We loved the fishing and especially the goats! Jeffrey was an exceptional host and we highly recommend Glamp Like a Champ!

1 night at Glamp like a Champ

So amazing! The location, the tent, the comforts of camping. Everything was thought about at this site. There was a pond, an air conditioned tent, a fire pit, a boat, lots of wildlife and MORE! We had the opportunity to add on a s'mores package, a charcuterie board (hands down better than a restaurant board), goat petting, goat milking, feeding chickens, axe throwing, and picking produce from a fresh garden. Me and my girls had so much fun. I highly recommend visiting this location for fun, relaxation, friendly people and wonderful memories! Thank you!!

Weekend Trip to Texas Safari Camp

Such a peaceful visit. Rand is always so welcoming. My favorite spot was sitting next to the front pond, under the trees, with a slight breeze. Definitely a do-over!

1 night at Glamp like a Champ

My stay was truly amazing. Jeffery showed me the ropes around camp, and I can tell you, he has thought of every single thing! I'm so grateful for all the thought put into making me feel like I was being utterly spoiled while campin.

Weekend Trip to Texas Safari Camp

Awesome spot for a weekend getaway. Peaceful, with plenty of space to explore. The pond was great for swimming, and the kids loved the boats and paddleboards. Perfect mix of fun and relaxing—definitely coming back.

2 nights at Glamp like a Champ

Really easy to get to, arrived with a warm welcome and a guide around the area and the tent. It was everything we could have asked for. Jeff was literally the best he checked on us and brought us fresh fire wood. He even gave our kids some feed to give to the goats. We were able to take our kids on a paddle boat for the first time on the pond that was by our tent. It was super clean and super homie! Loved every minute!

Weekend Trip to Shiloh on the Lake

shiloh on the lake was great! good access to the lake, a couple of restaurants in the area (had a hard time finding celiac-friendly spots, but "the dock restaurant and bar" was great). there is no wifi though, and both of our phones had a hard time accessing anything that needed the internet without wifi.

1 night at Glamp like a Champ

I use HipCamp a lot and this place easily went to the top of my list of favorites!! You can’t find many places where your dog can just run around and safely do whatever they want. But then there was also AC and goats and a gorgeous view of the sunset and stars! And literally everything you could need for comfort and convenience. Towels, lanterns, cooking and eating utensils, wifi, etc, etc! My pup and I were both very happy here and we can’t wait to come back and stay for longer!

1 night at Llama Land Ranch

4 nights at Shiloh on the Lake

Weekend Trip to Shiloh on the Lake

The site was nice and clean. Easy access to restrooms, the fishing pier and swimming area. Will definitely be back!

1 night at Texas Safari Camp

Peaceful and beautiful. Stayed for one night end of May. It was hot and we camped in a shady spot. Thankful for the wheel carts. Randall was a great a host and we enjoyed the fire he started. We survived our first thunderstorm and slept peacefully. Will be back in fall!

Welcome to Texas Safari Camp Come escape to a heavily wooded 31 acre pristine wildlife habitat. Only one hour east of Dallas but it feels like another world. At the end of a one lane rock road- this is a very secluded property. It is perfect for tent camping groups and individuals, has a very positive vibe and is more peaceful than most state parks. It adjoins a 950 acre wildlife park with 900 exotic animals. Many can be seen from the road or you can pay to drive through and feed the animals. Your host is Randall Oliver. He has been organizing group campouts (with as many as 40 people) for years and enjoys hosting, bringing people together and creating new friendships and memories. Everyone is welcome and campers are treated like family. He can teach your kids to kayak and build a camp fire. You can fish for largemouth bass, cat, crappy and bluegill in the two ponds and swim, paddle kayaks and paddle boards, hike the jungle trail and socialize around the campfires. There are no designated campsites. You can camp anywhere except between the green building and the front pond. No vehicles are allowed back on the property. Off road wagons are provided to help haul your gear. Front pond camping areas are 30-100 yards from parking area. The rear pond is more secluded but farther from the parking and outhouse. There are four fire pits around the front pond and one next to the rear pond. The tiny handcrafted Hummingbird Tree House overlooks the front pond and features a queen bed, a smaller bed in the loft, electricity, lights, a fan, screened operable windows and outdoor table and chairs on the elevated deck. There is no heat or air conditioning in the tree house. You must bring your own sleeping bags, blankets and pillows. No food, smoking or pets allowed in the tree house.
