    Massive place to hold kid parties, petting animals, multiple playgrounds, pumpkin patch, pony rides. Very spacious.

    This was a great little petting zoo/park playground but I did find some concerning things while being there. While being inside the petting zoo, I noticed that the cattle dog they have can barely walk. Her dewclaws were extremely overgrown and poking into the paws on the bottom of her feet, causing her pain to walk and constantly lying down to avoid so. This was an extremely sweet dog and it was sad to see such a lack of care. A lot of the animals don't look extremely well maintained but this was the most alarming issue I noticed. This is a nice place but I hope they can take better care of their animals, especially that sweet dog. :(

    Overall: Not a bad place to explore, affordable but a bit rundown and could be so much better with an overhaul of a few hundred bucks but we did enjoy it and especially for the price was a good value. Venue: old farm with instagrammy spot in the front. Sandbox which was good for the under 4. Goat feeding available but they acted like they never ate ever so I didn't last more then 20 seconds. Zipline at the very back and swingsets and plgoground that was good minus how darn how it is. Food: Easy dishes, overpriced but could be good, we didn't have any. Only had the fountain drinks which where in Styrofoam (pet peeve) owell. In general I'll come back for events but not for everyday thing.

    The "GIANT LEGO ROOM" they claim they have in their website.

    This place is like someone little farm with a playground. Random things thrown around that seems that they didn't wanted to put in the trash and workers are not friendly. Not worth the $8.50 or $15 for the pony ride& that little tractor train ride.

    So we may have picked the hottest day to go but with that said I have absolutely no complaints. Friendly staff, very helpful. my kid had an amazing time ran around the entire place, which if you can't tell by the name is gigantic. I will return, and return and tell everyone I know about what a memorable time we had. So long story short, if you have small children with tons of energy whom love animals and getting dirty- give it a try. If anything for the benefit of a good night sleep for them plus some extra down time in the evening for the parents isn't anything to complain about!

    Came here for home school day with the kiddo, and I must say it was a pleasant and peaceful experience. It was nice just to get away from all the noise and traffic of the city, and be somewhere kids (or adults) could just run and be free. It wasn't crowded, ample parking and not super expensive. I could tell the place has probably seen better days, but I still appreciated a nice place to retreat for some peace and quiet. My son did not want to leave as he enjoyed playing with the farm animals in the petting zoo. There was such a variety, and the animals were calm natured, so quite nice to get so up close to them. There was one main runner the farmhand had to keep watch over as he secretly and strategically kept planning his escape. Lol. Who knew goats were so smart! But definitely a fun sight to see. There were also bench areas to sit and chill or eat lunch. They also sold snacks onsite as well. In different areas of the farm there were various games kids could play such as soccer, basketball (we even did a little 1on1), a playground, and a mini zip line as well. I'd definitely return to catch some of their events coming up, or just another nice day out. :D

    This zipline like equipment is located at the very back of the property.

    I came here on a school field trip with my students. I really didn't know what to expect, but this place didn't disappoint. If you're wondering what this establishment is, let me put it simply: it's a "small" farm with multiple activities. Farm animals include a duck, tortoise, llamas, ponies, goats, and a Highland cow. I'm not sure where they are kept, but I believe there may be some chickens around too because I saw one of the staff bring out a cute little chick for some of the kids to play with. You can pet and feed a majority of the animals and pony rides are available for children under 100 pounds. There are also two playgrounds, miniature golf course, a small basketball court, an area to play soccer, and a cute shed with toys and blocks. The bathrooms were nice and clean. 7 Acre Wood also has a nice snack bar with plenty of food items to choose from (pickles, pickle pops, homemade rice crispies, etc.). I can say with confidence that children 5 and under would likely love this place.

    If 3.5 was an option I would go with that. I feel like this place has potential for sure. It's really inexpensive and I'm rating it based on what it is and not what it could be. If your grandparents created your dream backyard as a kid, this would be it. There are tons of cute animals and lots of playground/imagination areas. Pony rides and barrel rides. Our kids loved it. It was approximately 10,000 degrees so we only lasted an hour and a half. I could see spending a lot longer on a cooler day. It's a bit run down, it's outdoors in the Texas heat so that's to be expected. The putt putt area is strange and next to impossible to play as it's slippery concrete and needs tons of repairs. The kids ( both goats and human kids) roaming around it didn't seem to mind. Feeding the animals was a highlight and our 1.5 year old loved the new playground equipment. If I lived near I could totally see having an annual pass. I did end up with some fire ant bites, hopefully they stay on top of that because it would have been awful if one of my kids stepped in them.

    See all

    Pumpkin patch was less than impressive and the animals are enclosed in tiny filthy living quarters. This place should be shut down.

    This is a fun place to go with the kids. They've got putt putt, playground, petting zoo, zip line and more.

These trails are wider and maybe a bit more maintained as I believe Texas A&M Forest Service manages it for research end education. There are a few nice ponds and picnic areas and it's a great place to hike with a group and/or ride horses (if you have them).

    If you're looking for an easy hike right in town, this is the place for you…read more The trails are VERY flat here and consist of packed sand. It's so smooth and flat here, you could probably push a baby stroller through here. ;-) The paths average 6 to 8 feet in width. No tree roots crossing the trails, or stumps, or logs blocking the trails. I didn't see a single piece of trash or any dog poop on the trails. But they allow horses on these trails, so there is some manure - just a little bit though. It gets pretty quiet on the trails, even though it's in the middle of town. Most of the trails are laid out in a grid format, kind of like city streets are laid out. Signage is abundant and trails are clearly marked. I can't imagine how someone could possibly get lost out here. I was able to get a 7.4 mile hike, even though I didn't hit all the trails. I'd estimate there's a total of 10 miles of trails out here. The most elevation change I was able to get was 33 feet over a stretch of one mile, so as I said - very flat! There's also a nice little pond at the trailhead, and parking for about two dozen cars.

    I can't say how much I enjoyed being with real elephants at such close quarters and being able to…read moretouch them too... As a child, I have seen real elephants in old temples, they don't have them anymore. Other than that its been zoo and safari. But this was different.... Kennedy introduced himself as the guy who was taking care of animals since 5 generations and he is studying to be a vet. The main mahout was a small guy and he was hilarious. He did most of the talking about all the animals. These elephants are rescue elephants which have been handed over by the zoo for various reasons, or, so I understand. There are 3 elephants Paige with longest teeth, Jeanie with a little short ones , and Krissy with none. With poaching increasing, the number of Krissy's are increasing. That will keep them safe I guess. Not sure why the previous reviews are so brief. We got to learn about them, feed them carrots, even phones if u r willing to give away ( ha ha- Paige really seemed to want them), how to keep their foot and nails in shape, bathing them so on and so forth. This was the first time I had heard a live trumpet and it was adorable. In the end we posed for pics. They are tamed and trained no doubt, but seemed to be enjoying our company and well treated by their owners. They have plenty of parking. Tickets are purchased online, most often they are open only one weekend a month. Restrooms are available. Food not allowed, but a bottle of water is ok. Got to meet Abu the camel, his partner, a zebra and a billy goat and his family too. I wanted to hold one and did not know how to- one of the helper guys I approached said just pick them up and hold - really ! Then some other fellow visitor helped.
