Rainbow Ranch Campground:
Best LGBTQ Destination
Just shy of two hours south of Dallas is a little town called Groesbeck, and at nearby Lake Limestone is this queer campground destination. The largest of its kind in Texas, Rainbow Ranch is a haven for LGBTQ people to enjoy the outdoors in a safe space spread across 700 acres. Guests can hike, bike and fish for a relaxing time.
The ranch also hosts a variety of events for those who want to live it up, outdoors-style. Rainbow Ranch hosts weekends such as its own Burning Man party, the Spring Women’s Fest and Summer Splash, as well as festive holiday weekend events.
Guests can either pitch a tent or rent a cabin or, for large groups, a four-bedroom, two-bath house, a fire pit and large back yard. The ranch also features a pool and pavilion. Sounds like everything is good to go for a night in nature.
