It's a business, and several of the young animals had been cleaned for an upcoming livestock show. Those animals had "jackets" on! LOL Lots of chickens and chicks around too. Our group got a fresh egg out of the coup! Many baby alpacas around, pregnant mamas segregated, and "visitors" quarantined until checked out. The staff was super knowledgeable, and super nice. You need a reservation, and please be on time, it's a group event! Recommend this usual adventure.

Huge slides, kids zip lines, pumpkin patch, hay rides, barrel train rides, corn maze, swings, games, sandbox with dump trucks, bubble area, construction digger truck operation area, food, barn with a band playing and dance floor, campfires (for reservation), flower fields for pictures or picking (for a small fee), apple cannons you can shoort for an additional fee I believe, lots of picture opportunities. Everything was well spread out so even though there was a lot of people you didn't feel like you were on top of each other. Also, the lines were pretty short or non existent. The food was good, and not overly expensive. We had brisket fries (real brisket, not something that tastes like it came from a tub), all toppings were help yourself. They also had your typical turkey legs, funnel cakes, kettle corn, etc. We got there shortly after they opened on Sunday and stayed almost until they closed. Our almost two year old loved it. The parking was super easy to get in and out. You do have to purchase tickets online, then show the QR code at the front. No cash, card only but there is a way to convert cash there if needed at one of the stations. Highly recommend bringing your family here for some wholesome fall fun.

Extremely Disappointing and Unwelcoming Experience…read more My family and I were really looking forward to visiting this place and drove an hour to get there. Unfortunately, we were never greeted or given any guidance upon arrival. When we saw a buffalo near the entrance, we calmly walked over just to say hi -- as one might expect at a petting zoo. A man, who I believe was the owner, suddenly yelled at us to back away. We returned to our car, unsure of what we had done wrong. He then approached us again and aggressively asked what we wanted. When we asked about the tour and prices, he continued to scold us for going near the animals, despite the fact that this is advertised as a petting zoo. The tone and hostility were completely uncalled for. As we were about to leave, we paused briefly to look at the camels and take a quick picture -- only to have him run up and yell at us again, demanding that we get off the property. We left feeling disrespected, uncomfortable, and honestly shocked at how poorly we were treated. It was a complete waste of time and left a very negative impression. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a friendly, family-oriented experience.

We paid $80 for four of us, and you don't really get anything for that price. You have to pay for balloon animals and face painting, which I think should be included in your ticket. My daughter loved the pillow jump, but the lady working there was horrible. She screamed at everyone constantly to "get in line," and then if kids were jumping too hard or didn't stop jumping when she said so, she'd scream at them. She really ruined what should've been a fun time. The other staff wasn't nice either. In the end, I could've taken my daughter to a park for free and gotten the same experience without having to shell out $80. This place just seemed super greedy and zero customer service skills. They treated everyone like they weren't welcome.

Exotic Animals + Pumpkin Patch = Great Time!…read more Went to Indian Springs Ranch for the 1st time on Saturday 10/26/2024 to check out the pumpkin patch they put on and it's definitely worth checking out! Why you ask?! Well, it's also an exotic animal ranch! Yes, folks they have llamas, camel, buffalo & other animals that you feed (see videos/pics included w/ this review) It really was a fun experience and not just for the kiddos but also for us adults. Here are a few other helpful tidbits: - - - plenty of parking onsite - - - very shaded w/ lots of huge trees that provide relief from our Texas heat - - - onsite Moms Room for breastfeeding and/or changing baby diaper - - - food trailers onsite - - - pumpkin patch has lots of gourd-geuos photo backdrops! Hope this info helps! Rebecca

Their teacher…read moreappreciation discount gets our whole family in for free which is amazing, and they always have perfect Fall activities. Pumpkin Patch, flower field, apple cannon, kettle corn popcorn, slides, the corn maize of course, and tons of other activities for the whole family. We also love the live music. Sadly this year we had our first major bad experience with the staff. So Hope and David.. this is for you who offered no apologies, no sense of understanding, and who encouraged us to take to the internet to express our dissatisfaction. We found ourselves lost in the corn maize, and our older boys (age 12 and 15) forged ahead to help us and a group of other families find our way out. They got ahead of us so we did not see fully what happened but we walked up on a female employee, Hope, cutting off our boys bands and sticking white hand on them letting the world no they are no longer welcome inside the corn maize for the rest of our day. We come to find out the boys saw the next marker to help us out and they stepped over some yellow caution tape in an open space to get to it and back track to help us out. But Hope was essentially hiding in the corn, and gave no warning, no offer for assistance, and no human decency towards our boys and instead immediately punished them. When we confronted Hope, she admitted that this was the most difficult part of the maize but continued to give me no apologies or any sense of respect or customer service when explaining the boys were now banned from the maize. Then she audibly huffed in annoyance when we did not allow her to take the boys from us and had to escort our whole group out of the maize. From there David, a manager was brought down from a cherry picker over seeing the maize and proceeded to treat us in the same cold and unapologetic manner. To top it all off he could not truly weigh in on the situation because he was on his phone while "watching" the maize. Overall we were extremely disappointed to be treated so poorly and without any decency from these two employees, Hope and David. We never received an apology, a crumb of understanding, or any politeness. We understand our boys disobeyed a rule, but they did not destroy any property, were not rude or disrespectful to anyone, and were just trying to be helpful and take the lead in helping our family out of the maize.
