Star-Studded Nights glamping ground is a secluded riverside retreat in Central Texas, designed for couples seeking a romantic, off-the-grid honeymoon without sacrificing luxury. Nestled along the Bosque River near Waco, the property features five private safari-style canvas tents, each thoughtfully spaced for privacy and immersed in nature.
Every tent has a king-size bed with luxury linens, climate control (A/C & heat), private deck seating, and hotel-style amenities — all under expansive Texas skies filled with stars. Couples can kayak together on the river, relax in hammocks, gather around fire pits, or enjoy sunset cocktails at the pavilion.

They are an adult-focused, low-density glamping property with only five tents total — so privacy and tranquility are core to the experience.

With Dripping Springs being the “Wedding Capital of Texas,” with over 30 wedding venues, you’ll find a special place here to spend your honeymoon, if not at Camp Lucy.
