Second year! Went last year when it was super cold! This year we went on a Friday at around 6 pm! We enjoyed all the activities! A lot of space for a toddler to run around too - not sure if bigger kids/teens will enjoy it, but they added laser tag and bullride for extra $$$ Santa and Grinch photos were free! Plus we found an Elf on the Shelf! We did grab some food to eat before coming in which I would recommend if you want to save some money. Overall, planning to check it again next year! Dont forget to keep an eye on their discounted tickets online and on IG! read more

Yee-Haw... This place is lit... UP! Old West Christmas Lights is located on Hwy 46 just west of Boerne inside Enchanted Springs Ranch which is a known for private events and movie sets. Perfect venue for an Old West or Tex- Mex party no matter what time of year! It's just a short drive through lighting display, then you will be directed to park on the ranch land. Be sure to turn your radio on to their station for holiday tunes before you hit the light tunnel which is really cool. Corral the family for a short walk into the Old West town covered in lights for an evening of fun and adventure. Plenty of photo ops available everywhere you turn. Lots of children's activities including a scavenger hunt, hands on cookie and ornament decorating, face painting to just to name a few. One of the best activities as a family is making smores by the campfire... and there are several fires around the old west town to keep you warm just like in the old days. Oh I also found in one of the saloons, one of the best Santas that I have met! OWCLF offers food, drinks, smores kits, as well as vendors for your holiday shopping, so bring some cash with you. I've been to Old West Christmas Light Fest in 2018 & 2019 with different friends. Looking at reviews it was located here in 2017 as well. I tell everyone about it as I love the old west town, especially the Jersey Lilly reproduction (you gotta do your research on Judge Roy Bean, Law West of the Pecos). The one suggestion I would like to share with both OWCLF & ESR, please add some old west interactive characters. That is pretty much the only thing that was missing at this event. Yes, I would highly recommend this event, and actually have been doing for the last month, totally worth the drive out there, for sure. Happy Holidays in Hill Country! read more

This was such a cute even to visit! We had an amazing time looking at all the lights. They had so many great amenities including a petting zoo, small light maze, bar, food trucks, and more. They had opportunities to take photos with both Santa and the Grinch. Our favorite part about it was that it was pup friendly. read more

I have been excited to see this place in person for awhile! If you are coming from Kerrville make sure you take the exit before the chilis because of construction. It was fairly easy to find because of all the lights on the right of the road. Upon entering, the guys working the front did a great job with communication and checking us in. I must say all the workers would fabulous. It was very easy navigating and letting us know where to go. They have a fun little scavenger hunt you can do while looking at everything. There was lots to see and do. The live music was raising the roof! I totally recommend getting a hotdog and cocoa. They were both super delicious. Everyone that was working tonight was super friendly and made you feel welcomed. I had a great experience and would recommend bringing the kids! I had a great time and can't wait to go again! read more

This place was one of the best as far as Christmas lights go. You drive through a little bit at the beginning before you pull over to park (staff will guide you). The little town is so cute lit up! There was a Christmas light maze, TONS of picture opportunities, the Santa here looked like a real Santa, and THE PRICE! Most places are between 30-45 dollars to drive through, this was $32 after tax for 3 adults (using military discount) and it was worth every penny spent. It was fun to see the Longhorns, take photos with all the gorgeous lights, and support some local businesses. We even tried their hot chocolate and it's good, not watered down like most places do. The staff was really friendly too and made us more excited to come out and explore. Don't forget to read the tomb stones in the graveyard area, a lot of them were pretty funny. Already planning my next trip, you won't regret it. read more

My kids (3, 6, and 9) had an absolute blast at this place. There enjoyed all the photo ops and small activities to do. My son enjoyed their light maze and my daughter took her meeting with Santa very seriously! I was a little disappointed that the children didn't get to sit on Santa's lap. She was so excited to tell him what she wanted for Christmas but when we approached, he didn't say much. I had to initiate the conversation with "she's so excited to tell you what she wants for Christmas!" No big deal, maybe with COVID, there's a reason they don't do Santa's lap? It's really just a waving Santa with a photo op. I also recommend that everyone eats before attending! They do have a few food vendors but the food was extremely overpriced and not very good at all. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries and the patty tasted like it was a frozen patty from my elementary school lunch days. I also ordered asada tacos and asada fries from another good vendor. Very bland. Overall paid about $150 for a family of 5 experience (tickets, food and hot chocolate). If I were to do it again, I'd only purchase tickets and eat before visiting. read more

My second time going and this time with my 2 babies! I love this place for the lights, the photo ops, activities, corn maze for kids, scavenger hunt and just all the Christmas spirit. I will keep coming here with the kids year after year. Thoughts for improvement would be to make the entire grounds smoke free as this place caters to families and there are people smoking everywhere with pregnant moms and children all over the place. Secondly, there's a s'more kit for $3 which includes 2 Graham crackers, 1 fun size Hershey candy, and 1 giant marshmallow. This would be excellent except the marshmallow was very stale and the Graham cracker was slightly damp. This could easily be remedied so I still recommend it as a fun family holiday activity. read more

This was my first Christmas light fest in San Antonio so I don't have much to compare it to. My friends and I decided to come out here for something to do and to get into the Christmas spirit. So, I personally think the $17 per person price tag is kind of steep, so I went online and got the $50 pass ($57 with fees) for 5 people. The drive out there was kind of dark and then up over the hill you start to see Christmas lights, once you enter into the ranch there are Christmas light displays on each side and once you pass the area to pay you come into an amazing light tunnel (which was pretty awesome). There are more light displays after, that lead you to park into the area covered by rocks. You then enter into Santa's village which was really cute. There was a scavenger hunt for kids and some vendors located inside some of the buildings. They also had a bungee bounce swing, food truck, bucking bull, fire pits, and a projector playing cartoons. Lots of stuff to do for the kids. Hot chocolate ($3) was located inside the same building as Santa (free). They also had beer, wine, and water for sale. Kettle corn and cotton candy for sale as well. One building had a photo booth ($7) and that was super cute! Not a lot of people on Sunday night, we overall had a great time! Started to get chilly during the evening so dress in layers or be sure to bring a jacket! read more

So we paid $75 with military discount. Three adults and a toddler. Lights are pretty but inside there are just good photo ops. Everything is an extra charge including the petting zoo which for sure should be part of the experience. The advertising video shows fake snow blowing and it wasn't there. We unfortunately won't come back. read more

Driving through the light tunnel and strolling through the various familiar holiday scenes is a WONDERFUL way to get in the holiday spirit. The Old West theme and campfires are just perfect. My husband and I came across the guys the laser tag booth. I admit I was hesitant to give it a go at first but I am so so glad we went for it. That was THE MOST fun I've had in years. Y'all HAVE to try it. I highly recommend this as your next date night or family night out! Seriously, just go! read more

On Saturday, December 17th, 2023 we went to the Old West Christmas Light Fest at Enchanted Springs Ranch as we have been doing for the last several years. This year we were very disappointed for several reasons. First, the price increased to $30.00 per person and the amenities decreased. They used to have vendors there, someone to take a picture of you and your kids while sitting on Santa's lap. This year we had to ask the family standing in line behind us to take our photograph. When I asked Santa what happened to the elf that used to take pictures for us, Santa said she was "out cleaning tables." There were fewer Christmas lights as you entered- not as in past years. How does a business increase its, prices and decrease their amenities? We usually come out every year, but this year we felt we were paying more for less. The worst of all was the petting zoo (new addition, but you must pay extra for that). I understand people need to make a living and this is probably how they make theirs. However, if they're going to have these animals out in 40° weather (with the wind, it feels colder), they should have some type of covering and heater for them. I mentioned it to one of the owners and she said that these are outdoor animals anyway. I stated yes but at least outdoors in the wild they can find shelter somewhere. Here, they were out in the open with no covering, no trees, grass,, etc. They were just exposed to the cold and wind. With the possible exception of the pigs, the poor animals looked miserable. They were shivering with cold, they seemed lethargic and their eyes were half closed. Some were trying to huddle together for warmth- but were unable to because they would scatter as people kept coming to pet them. The sight of the turkey broke my heart, as he was perched up on a cold metal fence and had nowhere to go for warmth. My daughter paid to go in to pet the animals with my grandchildren, and she immediately regretted the decision once she saw how those poor animals were shivering, with their eyes saddened. You could tell these animals were miserable. The only animals that night that seemed somewhat indifferent to the cold were the pigs, but they appeared to be hungry, as one of them kept pushing the fence trying to forage for food somewhere outside the fence line. I don't know if this is legally considered animal abuse. but it certainly seemed cruel to those of us watching. I understand that the petting zoo is a nice feature to have and that's great but the owners should take better care of their animals especially in cold weather. Just watching this was an unpleasant experience, and we will not be returning nor will be recommending this venue in the future. read more

Had a magical time with our kids. The lights were amazing and then you get to get out and visit the Old West Christmas town. Here you can mingle with Santa and drink cocoa. The staff were superb and it was very well organized. They had a scavenger hunt that kept the kids excited and engaged. This may become a family holiday tradition for us. read more

Old West Christmas Light Fest - Festivals Near Me - Boerne, Texas

I'm so excited to have stopped in for this adventure! This new light show is located in the hill country This place truly is magical! The first thing I noticed was the blanket of stars that covered the sky!! What a better canvas for the backdrop for the Christmas light show on your way in and out of the ranch?! When you park and enter the village, it is cleverly staged as a western scene, like out of a movie. This western included a saloon, church, fire pits, cattle pens, etc. There was tons of things for children which included Santa, s'mores by the fire, karaoke, trampoline bungee jump, corn hole, scavenger hunt...the list goes on. For the adults, there was beer for sale, vendors for shopping, professional family photography for purchase, and food trucks. What a great family event during the holidays!! read more

Old West Christmas Light Fest is even more fun in its new location at Enchanted Springs Ranch. There are still beautiful light displays--including a tunnel--as you drive in. Once you park, there is an Old West village decorated with lights. Kids will love the scavenger hunt to find all the "Wanted" posters of longhorns. Many of the buildings in the village have activities inside, including Santa visits, face painting, and shopping. There are s'mores kits for sale and fire pits for roasting marshmallows. The village has so many activities, like the mechanical bull, bungee jump, hay maze, and a movie screen. We really enjoyed Old West Christmas Light Fest in its new location. read more

Okay fellow Yelpers...where do I begin?!? I will start by saying that I have been to nearly every Christmas light display in the region. With that you may be underwhelmed driving through the light display until you realize that it is only the entrance to the parking lot. The Ol' Santa Ranch is alive again and even more fun then before and beats my favorite Don Strange on overall entertainment. Great friendly people working here. A lot of activities for the child's fun scavenger hunt for the kids. A great looking Santa. Oh and there is SPACE. You can actually breathe. Small shops, saloons and bars are filled with refreshments, face painting, vendors, cookie decorating, several fires to roast up those mallows and even letter writing to Santa. Many of the kid activities are free and only request donations to support Vault. Very Texas and extremely fun. Even the wine was Texan, Gotta love Becker! Oh did I mention Karaoke ! ...It's Christmastime There's no need to be afraid... I'll fight you for the Bono part! read more

Other places we've been to in the past like this charge a per-car fee. At first I was a little bit sticker shocked at the price per person ($17), but it quickly became worth it. There's a short drive out to a Western town, illuminated by lighting displays, a drive-through tunnel, and reflections on a lake. The Western town had a scavenger hunt to find all of Santa's longhorns, a hay maize for kid's to run through, running Christmas movies, Santa, hot cocoa and coffee, a small shop, and a play area for kids. As an adult, I enjoyed the many twinkling lights and warm glow of the fire. It was such a great stop! One suggestion for management is to have cars have their headlights off when driving through (there's plenty of lights to illuminate the road and the glare of LEDs behind you can ruin the effect of the displays). read more

This was a really fun event. They had a sort of treasure hunt from the start where you locate all the different cows they have out there, which are represented on informational placards. There are so many places to take great photos, not to mention the giant bridge that is wrapped in lights as you drive in. For Texas, this is as close as you can get to a winter wonderland. It seems there are millions of Christmas lights. Food stations were great as well as the drink selections. Cool place. read more

My family got a chance to join ACMB here last night. Although the heavy rains on Friday and the cold front had come in, the night was amazing. The light display on the drive in was beautiful and whimsical as well! We enjoyed heading throughout the old west town and checking out the shops, live music, decorating cookies, and seeing the live longhorns. My nine year old loooved the scavenger hunt that took us to all the places to find the posters of longhorns who pull Santas sleigh in Texas(of course!. We enjoyed some hot chocolate, pizza, and...s'mores!! Perfect place to put us in Christmas spirit! read more

A Christmas light spectacular a short drive outside of the city. Don Strange ranch hosts the Christmas light set up with weekday and weekend hours. On a weekday night the wait was around 40 minutes to enter. It runs $27/car or there are hayride options. The drive thru lights were great for the kids, and the light tunnels seemed to be the favorite including a flashing "Christmas vortex." Towards the center is a place to stop, but is optional if you just want to drive through. Keep in mind this is a ranch and if it has been raining it can get muddy. I was very happy to have an SUV and even then traction control came on a few times. Not sure if a sports car would be a good idea. Overall the kids loved the adventure and it was worth the drive. read more

Let me qualify this review since I was able to attend for free with a gift pass. We were told to get there close to 6 when they open and we still had a little wait but would definitely recommend that as well as when we left a little after 7 the line going out Waring Welfare Road from the ranch was easily 100 cars deep. The operation itself is very smooth. We did the drive thru as that is what we had the pass for. You do about half the display and then you reach Santa's village which is a nice stopping point for some food and to stretch your legs. Only negative here was the almost immediate harassment by someone giving us a ticket for a "chance to win $10000" which is an obvious scam to get some info. The food choices were a bit limited and slightly expensive but overall very tasty. My son and his girlfriend purchased a kit to make smores by the campfire which was nice while my wife and I enjoyed some freshly made kettle corn. After being outside for awhile got back in the car and finished the lights. The best parts of the display are the 3 light tunnels that you go through. Really wild. There are some unique moving displays as well. Overall very nice experience but have to admit if I was stuck in the line I saw when leaving I would have been disappointed and if I had to pay for the tickets probably would have only given 3 stars as the fee for the car $27 is a little steep for the experience. read more

A beautiful display of lights and feeling of the Old West. My family and I visit this place every year to enjoy the lights, scavenger hunt, s'mores and pictures with Santa. This place has food trucks and food throughout the place. It also has activities for the kids. You can find local crafts made from locals and also music in their main building. Lots of fun for families and couples. Enjoy the hill country of Bourne in with and old west Christmas theme. read more

Loved this place, it was magical with all the lights they had. It looks like an old western town with a dance floor and a church, it might be an event place. It is a nice place to take the kids to see the lights and take pictures with Santa Claus. It was a little hidden but can consider it a Staycations. read more

I'd say this is a cute festive event if you live close to the area and not taking a long drive out of your way. We drove 40 minutes to get there. Let's start with the $15 per person enterance fee just to get in. For a family, I would not call that exaclty budget friendly for the reason that once you enter the ranch, you pay for all food and drinks. Upon entering the ranch at opening there are lines of cars waiting but the line moves relatively quick. There are light displays to look at on the way in to parking and a light tunnel to drive thru around a small body of water. The parking area is not paved. Its dirt, rocky, and uneven. There are several people directing cars where to park. Upon entering the ranch ranchands give you a scavenger hunt to participate in for a free treat -a candy cane. There are several "cottages" to go in and some have photo ops set up. There are a few live animals but they are not to be pet or touched. There was a cookie decorating station for a donation but it only contained sprinkles. You could visit Santa for free and take a photo with your own camera they even have someone there to take the picture for you. Kids cam can write letters to Santa and drop then off in a big red mail box. There is yard corn hole, connect 4 and lasso a bull. Food trucks. A fair market and other stores to buy things. Fire pits for $3 s'more kits. For extra fee there is laser tag. Overall, I would not return and wasn't worth my time or money. I appreciate the experience to have gone once buy not again. One of the problems was the same way in is the same way out which I thought could be dangerous. It was time consuming we waited 15 minutes to get out. read more

I recall having some great times at drive though villages for the holidays; however, they rarely end in a village as engaging and friendly as this one. Hot Cocoa, Smore's, Santa Pics, and walking through the old west town was definitely the highlight of the evening. Can't beat the price for the scenic drive and all that accompanies inside the festival. It's worth the trip if not from the area and sure to make everyone on your car/ group smile from ear to ear. read more

Disclaimer: This is super long. After driving over an hour to get to the Don Strange Ranch my expectations were very high. As I drove towards the ranch I got to get a glimpse of what the ranch held in store for my group of friends and I. Just looking at the front entrance I didn't get very excited so I decided to just try to enjoy the journey. We were ushered by two guys at the front gate and they told us it was $29 to drive through it but I had received 4 tickets for the Ho Ho Hay Ride so we were allowed to park instead. Our ride and our driver were both very awesome and humble. The ride was a tractor with a large hay cart attached to it and some Christmas lights all over the hay cart. The driver was an awesome man with a cowboy hat. He let us know that if we wanted to stop at any time to take pictures we just had to let him know. We didn't but I probably should have because the pictures I took came out a little blurry. Keep that in mind for when you take pictures! We were led through the Christmas Light Fest at a nice pace. It wasn't absurdly cold, the hay was not prickly and was comfortable, and the views were alright. My friend were really enjoying it which made me happy. After a while we got to the halfway point which has a large building with a couple of things to do. First we were given some cards for a chance to win $10,000 or something where we had to submit information on an ipad. It's optional so you should skip it if you don't want to be spammed in the future or you could just be like me and do it anyways. Outside of the building are some firepits and a giant inflatable polar bear to take pictures with. Inside of the building are some gas heaters, food, tables, and an area where you can take free pictures with Santa Claus. He is only available on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and every day on the week of Christmas I believe. My friends and I enjoyed a nice cup of hot chocolate which is topped off with some whipped cream. We saw children writing letters to Santa and the smell of sausage filled the air. After a brief stop my friends and I decided to go back to finish the hayride. Our driver was prepared to leave at anytime and immediately set off once we were situated and ready. We went through the rest of the lights and parted ways from there. Overall the experience itself I would have rated a 2 but the fact that my friends enjoyed themselves brought my impressions up to a 3. My advice for the Don Strange Ranch is to utilize what they have better. You have so many lights but you also have so much ground to cover with the lights. I know the hayride thing is cool and the farther you go the more worth it the experience should be but for critical people like me blank space just looks bad and a lot of the displays are just empty space. Also, have some order to all of the madness. It just seemed like a bunch of lights set up randomly. Here are some recommendations. My first recommendation is to keep the awesome light tunnel displays. The very first one is the prettiest one so you might want to put that at the end of the whole trip so that it will be the last things customers will remember you by. My second recommendation is to shorten the ride and tighten up the lights into a more compact area. I would put a lot more lights right at the entrance because the welcoming sign is a bit lackluster as is the light display in the "parking lot." My third recommendation is to add more visible lights on the actual hay cart if that's possible. Think it would look cooler and people would be more inclined to want to ride it. Lastly, Christmas music on loud speakers! Once the music started playing in the building I felt a little happier and things got a little warmer. If you could have music playing throughout the ride somehow instead of the sound of the tractor's wheels I think it would make for a brighter experience. Thank you for having me there and for the great customer service! You have the potential to be a really great Christmas experience! read more

(Note:I attended my very 1st Yelp Christmas party here, and although it was on a Thursday (so there weren't as many people/ other vendors & events offered) ) nonetheless, the venue is incredible! I did think they could decorate the drive in & out a little more with lights, but otherwise it's perfect. Very cute, will definitely return (even though this place is 1 1/2 hours from my house).

Not impressed. Web site leads you to believe it's a very large lighting experience. It does have some great lights but not worth the $15 per person charge. Most of it is walking around the "old west" town that is lit up. Not as grand as you would think from web site. read more

I was blessed to attend the Yelp event with my family. My little ones had so much fun and I loved seeing the excitement on their faces. We drove through and looked at the Christmas lights and they screamed in enjoyment when we went through the light tunnel. They pointed out the different decorations since there were more than last year. There's no shortage of parking and we walked to look at the different lit-up buildings. A gentleman stood in the front passing out a paper for a scavenger hunt and you'll get a candy cane once it's completed. It's a great idea to get the kids involved while looking around. Santa is a jolly man that makes children laugh, sadly my littlest one was frightened since it's his first time meeting the man in the red suit. In the same building, you can enjoy hot chocolate, adult beverages and also get supplies to toast s'mores outside around the campfire. This place is a must to visit. read more

Spent over 50$ to bring my kiddos and mom to see the "light fest". Compared to other drive thru lights we've been to; we were ALL extremely disappointed in the amount of lights and displays. While the old west town town had a few buildings that were accessible very few were interactive for kids and were very fun. We drove an hour to spend 10min in the drive thru at 20min in the town looking for stuff to do. Definitely not revisiting or worth the money and time. read more

Such a pretty event held here. Cute Christmas lights, food was great, awesome people and good drinks!!

This place was neat. The drive going into the place had lots of Christmas lights and at one point you drive through like a tunnel of different colored Christmas lights, there are probably thousands of these things, it feels like you're in a colorful part of outer space. They have some areas to get food but not too many. They don't serve alcoholic beverages in their bars other Than just beer and wine. They have fires outside you can sit by and they sell s'mores. Their buildings are spread apart so it kinda sucks walking in the cold from one to the other. The traffic getting in and out was kind of a pain. They had some bulls there that was pretty cool, a lot of fun things to do for the kids. It's a family oriented place. Not something that I would recommend going to alone. They have a cover charge . read more

We went this past weekend to see all the lights. It took forever to get there, and I was a bit nervous going down that small road in the dark, but it was worth it once we arrived. The entrance was a bit confusing as we drove right past the area for cars to enter. It would be helpful if that sign was lit. It's possible that there are usually more attendants since it was raining at the time. Once we were on the right path, the lights were great! They have music playing over a radio station that you can listen to as you drive. This really added to the atmosphere. The bright tunnels were my favorite part. About halfway through we made it to Santa's Village. It was cute, although getting in through the mud was tough. Once inside we were greeted with a bunch of food cooking and little shops. We browsed, sampled, and eventually bought some tasty jams. We also bought sausages, hot chocolate and a smores pack. My son took pictures with Santa, and that went well. By the time I went the wait was very minimal. Afterwards, we roasted marshmallows outside. That was so fun. I'd never done it before, but it was such a fun little addition to the entire ride. The second half of the ride was just as enjoyable as the first. All in all a great experience. I plan on bringing my son back next year! read more

The lights were pretty nice especially the lit bridge you drive through. The old west town was cute. Downside was every single activity cost more money. You already paid $10/kid & $15/adult just to keep dishing out more. Nothing was included for the ticket price. The cost for kids to ride the bull or bungee was $8 each. That was ridiculous and really disappointing. Not sure we will go back. read more

Not worth the money. $40 to get in and there are very few lights. Im not sure what your even paying for. Very few lights you basically spend 30 min in line to get in take a 2min ride through the worst christmas lighting Ive ever seen. They make you park and you walk in a circle its not what they make it seem. The best part was the longhorns. The rest was a waste of money and I wish I could demand a refund i spent more time waiting in the car line to get out then I did at the ranch. read more

My first time wanting the Christmas lights experience. Horribly disappointed! The only drive through part is literally at the entrance before you are forced to park and explore the "old west." The price tag for entrance staggering considering what you get. There is only one drive through lighted tunnel. There is also a walk through one. There were 2 food vendors and seemingly lots of beer to be bought along with some local craft merchants. Although pets not permitted, one vendor had the best doggy swag! But the lights ... oh the underwhelming lights. When we returned home, we were thankful to see the bountiful light displays right in my own neighborhood!! Not being a Grinch or a Scrooge ... just being real. read more
