A Christmas vacation in Texas is without a double one of the best Christmas vacations for families! The second-largest state in the U.S., Texas is best known for its delicious BBQ, unique music scene, and gorgeous desert landscapes. Take advantage of those wide-open spaces and go stargazing in the Westcave Preserve, which is said to have some of the darkest night skies in Texas. See some of the most spectacular Christmas lights Houston or Dallas have on display, or the lights at the Zilker Park Trail of Lights and the San Antonio Riverwalk, which are best viewed by taking a boat tour down the river. If you're looking for some snowfall, Davis Mountains State Park and Big Bend National Park are known to get the occasional snowstorm. No matter what you choose to do, you'll be glad you booked one of the best Christmas getaways today!
