One of my favorite Christmas experiences is back for its third year. Get ready to experience the magic of the holiday season like never before! Lone Star Lights, brought to you by Carolina Creek, is more than just a dazzling display of Christmas lights—it’s an immersive holiday adventure the whole family will love.
From November 22 to December 22, Lone Star Lights transforms 17 acres into a breathtaking spectacle of 1.2 million twinkling lights across six enchanting, themed zones. And one of the best parts? You can play in 270 tons of real snow at Snow Cap Bay—right here in Texas! Whether you’re racing down the sledding hill, building snowmen, or having an epic snowball fight, you’ll feel the magic of winter in every moment.
But the holiday fun doesn’t stop there. Sip on hot chocolate, snack on funnel cakes, and listen to live performances from local musicians. Explore the River of Light, meander through the Luminary Trail, and make lasting memories with a visit to the petting zoo or a ride on a real horse. And don’t forget to stop by Santa’s workshop for a FREE family photo with Santa himself—yes, absolutely free!
