It's comfortable for 4 people and has a good size restroom (with toiletries from Beekman 1802)and a cute loft above with access from a sliding ladder. The Murphy bed folds out to a huge king size bed. There is a gazebo in the center with a swinging bench and the grounds are well maintained. It's pretty close to a lot of interesting spots like the Magnolia Silos and the Homestead Heritage, as well as the Mammoth National Monument. The closest spot for a quick bite would be the Church's Chicken or Dickey's BBQ at the gas station down the street.

Perk: Danielle stayed with the bike keeping an eye on drinks/water when we went into bars. FYI-No actual peddling was needed-. Highly recommended this for fun.

What a fabulous family fun place to go enjoy in Waco, Tx. Actually you don't even need family…read more Just be adventurous and young at heart. There is so much to enjoy while relaxing. We stayed in our RV and took grandkids. They had a ball. So many fun kids activities. They have a cute little restaurant with good food and a darling general store. The only overpriced thing is bagged ice!!! They have everything you need to play tennis, pickleball, putt putt, woofle ball, soccer. Take your own pool towels. They have cabanas to rent which are great for shade but a little high dollar. I had a few issues with some cleanliness but when I voiced my thoughts they got right on it. Super fun craft activities for kids. Emily and Abigail awesome in that area. Aliyah was our bright sunshine gal at the pool. If you live close to Waco it is a super economical awesome vacay place because no flight costs! We went Monday through Friday and it was so quiet and nice.

Recently spent a weekend here, and overall we had a good time. Like most places, there were…read moredefinitely some positives and negatives. **The Good** There are a lot of amenities to enjoy. The property features a playground, several dining options, a general store, live music, a swimming pool with a swim-up bar, mini golf, fishing, a water park for kids, and more. Most of the amenities are well-maintained, clean, and provide plenty of entertainment for families. The on-site restaurant was actually better than expected. It's nothing fancy, but the food is tasty. Some menu items are a bit pricey, while others are reasonably priced. They offer a variety of accommodations, including cabins, tent sites, and RV hookup spots, which gives visitors plenty of options depending on their style of camping. The location is another plus. It's right on the river and just outside of Waco, making it feel like a getaway while still being close enough to town if you want to grab something or explore the city. They also offer golf cart rentals, which can be very helpful if your cabin or RV site is located farther away from the main amenities. **The Bad** One of the biggest drawbacks is that most amenities don't open until around 10-11 a.m. If you have kids who wake up early, you're left waiting several hours before there's much to do. I can understand limited hours during the week, but on weekends--and especially throughout the summer--the water park and other family attractions should open earlier. There's no reason the water park couldn't open at 9 a.m. The park markets itself as a kid-focused destination, but in reality it feels more like an RV resort with some great family amenities added in. The cabins are another area where expectations should be managed. The descriptions on the website make them sound much larger than they actually are. We stayed in a cabin advertised to sleep 10 people, and with only four people it already felt somewhat cramped. If you're traveling with a larger group, I'd strongly recommend booking multiple cabins next to each other instead of relying on one large cabin. The cabins could also use a more thorough cleaning. I completely understand that being near the river means bugs and outdoor debris are unavoidable. However, our floors were noticeably dirty, and the walls had shoe marks, scuffs, and other stains throughout the cabin. It felt like only the most frequently used areas received attention during cleaning, rather than the entire cabin. Another surprise was that the beds weren't made upon arrival. Instead, guests are given packaged sheets and expected to make the beds themselves. At the price point they're charging, I think that should already be taken care of before guests arrive. Lastly, the overall value feels a bit off. The experience is enjoyable, but it comes across as overpriced for what you actually receive. **Overall** We had a fun weekend and genuinely enjoyed our stay. However, after reflecting on the experience, it felt like the property falls a little short in several areas. The amenities--especially the water park and on-site dining--do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to the overall experience. Without those, my rating would be significantly lower.

We stayed at Blue Hills Resort on a whim and had the best time. There were so many animals to…read moreinteract with and meet. Mostly they are nice but can be a bit food motivated and come right up to you expecting some snacks. The cabin we stayed in was just enough for our needs since it was just my husband and me.

Fantastic staff, happy animals, well-kept facilities...what an incredible day we had. It feels like a dream. Easy day trip outing with the family or as a date- book your animal experiences online like we did at https://www.bluehillsranch.com . The staff was flexible to shift timing of the experiences so we didn't have to wait long in between- they were extremely accommodating and we never felt rushed either. The otter swim/playtime experience was originally what drew us, and it was even better than I'd imagined. Worth every penny! Then we got to feed and pet the capybaras, which were way friendlier than I thought they would be! The babies enjoyed some extra belly rubs too. Bottle feeding the kangaroo was so fun too- little Dundee was SO soft and loved all the pets, even gave us kisses! The giraffes were super friendly and greeted us every time we were nearby; feeding and getting quality time with them was an extra treat. The safari ride tour was also amazing- 5 of us fit comfortably and got to feed/see lots of animals that we wouldn't normally get to experience. We were surprised at how this place wasn't crowded at all in the middle of July when it is peak vacation season, so it really felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. They also have a beautiful main lodge area that is comfortable and welcoming with additional animals to enjoy.

With the Waco Wine Tour you get to stop at three wineries and sample about 5-6 samples at each winery. There is also a stop at a vineyard (and unfortunately we didn't go at the right season), but you get to see where all the vines and grapes grow, as well as have a delicious snack from a nearby market! I found some great wine I liked and our tour guide Joey was amazing! Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and answered every random question we could think of. He let us have alone time, giving us the right amount or privacy, but was always engaging and positive when we wanted to include him in girl time. I'm so glad I got this as my first wine tour experience, and if I'm ever in the area, I will have to come back and take the tour again... as well as buy some delicious wine!
