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!

1 night at Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

Excellent hosts and a quiet peaceful location. I would definitely visit again.

1 night at Treehouse on the Creek

We had a fantastic stay at the Treehouse. Steve is a great host. Very good location given it's not too far from the city....it's a cozy & private site. Couple of tips for fellow travelers: 1) wear your mud shoes when there is rain just before your stay 2) expect & be prepared to use a make shift toilet (few yards away on the trail)...better to pack a flash light.

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 Wild 2 Wonderful Ranch

Just what the doctor ordered! I loved it. Even with other campers in sight it was so peaceful. The land was so beautiful and Eddie was the best. I will definitely be visiting again.

Weekend Trip to Trickle Creek Ranch

We loved staying on Gary’s property! It was the perfect weekend getaway. It was so peaceful and the animals were all so friendly and sweet. The property was easy to get to and easy to get in and out. Gary and Dee were wonderful as was everyone else on property we got to meet! We had some issues with our RV and had to use the restroom they have there which was clean and perfect! It is disguised as a cute little outhouse and was steps away from our camper. We visited the stockyards in Fort Worth while we were there which was just about 30 min away! Thank you so much for having us! We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Burgers Lake Camping

The hosts were very friendly. Super cool to stay in this nearly 100 year-old waterpark. Especially only being 5 miles from the stockyards. Would definitely recommend.

Camping near Richardson guide

Overview

Richardson, Texas is a modern Dallas suburb with all the amenities of a city, but much closer proximity to nature. The many parks in this town make green space accessible, and as the home of the University of Texas at Dallas, there’s no shortage of bars, restaurants, and festivals. Whether you’re eating Tex-Mex at Richardson Food Truck Park or finding a new pair of cowboy boots at Richardson Mercantile, this charming town is a great jumping-off point for heading out into the wild.

Where to go

Prairie Creek Park

This urban park differs from most because it’s home to a waterfall. Here, you can walk, bike, and dip into the water. With no skyscrapers in sight and lush forests all around, you really will feel like you’ve escaped into nature. This is a great place to bring a picnic lunch, especially with kids, as there are plenty of picnic benches and tables to enjoy.

Lake Lavon

About 40 minutes from Richardson is Lake Lavon, a great place for swimming, boating, fishing, camping, and more. There are parks and campgrounds situated all around the lake, including Clear Lake Park, East Fork Park, Avalon Park, and Lavonia Park. Lake Lavon also has two boat rental locations, including Woody’s on the Lake and Collin Park Marina.

Lake Lewisville

At nearly 30,000 acres, this large reservoir is known for having warm waters and beautiful shores. Like many other lakes in Texas, this lake has options for camping, boating, fishing, swimming, and more. At the base of this lake stretches LLELA Nature Preserve, a green space featuring historic sites that can be viewed via a visitor center, walking trails, and kayaking.

When to go

The best time to visit Richardson, Texas is in the spring and fall. Specifically, September and November have the best temperatures without having the crowds of summer, so you can enjoy more access to camping sites, beaches, and other amenities.

A Texas state park pass can be purchased annually.
In Texas state parks, camping is only allowed at designated camping spots, and camping in public spaces is prohibited.
