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. We did the guided safari and was amazed at the vastness of the area. Ryan our guide was amazing and so knowledgeable. We had a great time. Matt was extremely helpful. The entire staff is kind and willing to listen.

We had an amazing time at Blue Hills Ranch in Waco, TX- I highly recommend a trip out there to get…read morethe up-close and personal experience we enjoyed with all the amazing animals! 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.

Would love to be back when I come through town next. I recommend the Storm's Special. $12 for a 1/2 lb burger and ton of fries -- great deal. Atmosphere is fully outside so be ready for the heat or enjoy a beautiful day!

That and the okra too for sure. You do have to be careful because there is still enough oil on them to burn you if you get greedy. They're always super fast to get your food out to you, even when they're packed. I definitely always favor this over something like Whataburger or McDonald's when we come through. Not only because the price is similar (and even cheaper in most cases) but the food is significantly fresher and better tasting.

This place is beautiful. Brought the family and the in-laws. Decided on this place and have been…read moreextremely happy. The ranch has so many options for activities. They have off road vehicles to trek all over the ranch. Skeet shooting, gun range, archery, fishing, kids swings, merry go round, mountain biking, hunting, horse shoes, atvs, jogging, camp fires and about anything you can think of to do outside. If you like photography, then this is the place from gorgeous wildlife to flowers to sky views, any pics come out fantastic. They have multiple cabins. I would guess you could house around 20 on the property at one time. We stayed in the Ranger Station and it was clean and comforting. Picked up meat from a butcher near by M&M, best prime ribeyes I have ever had. This place is a hidden gem!! The foreman and ranch man are very personable and helpful. We will be coming back.
