All the more interesting is how close this was to the downtown of Austin. Felt like we were in a typical suburb rather than on a ranch. Although we did not do this we noticed they have trap shooting, ATV Guided Tours, kayaking and horse riding of course. All worth checking out if you are in the area.

What a charming little town Marble Falls is. The drive out to Sweet Berry Farm alone sets the tone…read morewith all the rolling hills and beautiful scenery. Even though we had chilly weather and a little rain, it didn't stop us one bit. We ended up picking close to seven pounds of fresh strawberries and they were so tasty and juicy. The whole experience of walking row by row and picking the perfect berry was so much fun. There's even a helpful little sign explaining how to pick the strawberries properly so they last longer. *Pro tip, leave a bit of the stem on the strawberry as you pick them, they stay fresh longer. We learned that after the fact, but we'll definitely do it right next time. The farm is huge, around 152 acres of expansive land, which was very green, open, and peaceful. It wasn't crowded at all the day we went, which made it even more enjoyable. The kids had a blast. They have a cute little train ride, a fun bouncing area, and plenty of space for the kiddies to run around. The goats were a big highlight for us. You can buy feed for 25 cents a tiny cup, and we went through four pretty quickly - you might want to grab more upfront because they close at 5 and we didn't get a chance to go back for more goat feed. The setup around the goat area was really nice and whimsical, and there's just so much open space to explore and walk and get fresh air. They also have a small gift shop with ice cream and little goodies, which was a nice touch after being out in the fields. Overall, it was such a peaceful, fun, and memorable day. Beautiful views, great atmosphere, and a perfect mix of activities for both kids and adults. We'll absolutely be back. Easily a five star experience.

It's an annual tradition for my daughters and I to go strawberry picking at Sweet Berry Farms. We…read morekept up with our tradition, braved the heat and visited this past weekend. Love that they don't charge entry fees! They provide you with a box for the berries and charge $3.75 per pound. My girls and I had so much fun picking the berries and eating them after! We also love the farm's homemade strawberry popsicles and ice cream - absolutely delicious. They also offer pick your own flowers, a bouncy area, a barrel train ride, and various arts and crafts activities for kids. There are also baby goats to feed! Fun for the whole family and an awesome day trip.

It was my family's first time going to Mama Mary's Farm and although it rained an hour before, it…read morewas still a great time. My daughter loved to corn pit and while the rain picked back up, the staff ushered us all under covering and into the corn pit. The food was solid and thankfully not overpriced. The pumpkin patch, games like football toss, basketball free throws, and others were good attractions. We were also able to ride the train and feed the goats and donkeys. The corn maze was in shambles after the storm from the night before and the whole farm was a mud pit, but seeing my daughter have a good time was fully worth it.

This is one of the best pumpkin patch places I have ever been to in Texas so far. It is compact and…read morebeautiful. I like the set up, everything is so easy to access, perfect for little ones because of the size and layout of farm. We went on a weekday, less people and less hot, so that was a huge plus. If you are on the budget and don't care about hayride and face painting then weekdays would be an option, because for $9 you get enough to experience. Now I avoid going to some places because they charge you so much and offer some basics. If you like country, you will enjoy it here. Ms. Mary was so personable and sweet. I had a nice conversation with her and I can tell they put love and lots of efforts in what they do. Very nice people and nice farm. I would come back here even it takes some driving. I would recommend this little gem. P.s. it was a pumpkin give away day. A nice bonus!

Today was our first visit here and it will be the last. The animals were cool to see, but all of…read morethem looked sick. They were either not moving, or lying down. 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
