Went for the pumpkin patch and photo opportunities. It was cute. Really liked the animals and was surprised to see a camel, zebras and buffalos! Kiddo loved it. With that said, there's really not much else to do. There's a bounce house for the kids, everything else is just small gimmicky items to take a quick pic and move on. Only 1 food vendor + a dessert option. Overall, for the pumpkin patch stuff, it might be worth going on a weekday at their normal prices but they jack up the prices over the weekend and it's pretty overpriced for what you get.

Our favorite local pumpkin patch. Been coming here for a few years, and it keeps getting better and better every year, albeit more expensive. I think it's a great spot for younger children, and there's and endless supply of instagramable opportunities for the older kids. What to expect: Parking in a dirt lot $8 pp Thurs & Fri, $16 pp weekends Pumpkins everywhere, with rates posted near entrance An array of animals roaming around including zebras, bison, camels, and longhorns Animal feed for $5 per large cup Large corn pit in a stock tank Huge spider web to play on Hay bales, treehouse, teepee Huge jumping pillow and food trucks on weekends only Cute little bathrooms Absolutely recommend for all your fall needs!

Super fun! Indian Springs Ranch offers a unique and up close encounter with exotic animals. I opted for a private hour-long tour and it was such a treat. The tour was easy to coordinate via email and Dylan was an engaging and knowledgeable guide. I've done drive-through experiences before but this is on a totally different level. All of the animals on the property are kept as pets and as such, the vast majority are comfortable with hand feeding. Rather than drive your own vehicle, guests ride in an open-air off-road vehicle for full immersion. We got plenty of treats to share and the animals chased after us to ask for more! Highlights included the zebra, camel, bison and kangaroos. Great for all ages, highly recommend!

This is a really cool place to take the kids! Better for elementary age kids and younger as there is not much to do but see the animals. BUT, they are awesome animals to see! You can also purchase animal food to feed some of them out of your hands. There are buffalo, llamas, zebras, longhorns, camels, donkeys, goats and I'm sure I'm missing some. This is a great experience for young and old. There are lots of different pumpkins and you may purchase them but they were, as expected, more expensive than regular retail places. The grounds are spacious and shaded by plenty of large trees. Several set ups for photo opportunities as well. There was a bounce house for older kids. There was a big tractor the kids could climb on. There was only one food vendor, which was a bit disappointing, but it was good. It was BBQ. There was a small, local bakery vendor but they ran out of most stuff kind early. There are several picnic tables but not enough to accommodate those that had purchased food when I was there. This is a cool place to hangout for a while with friends, family and younger kids, without high expectations....it's just laid back. Enjoy nature and the animals and good convo.

Way too busy. Good for them, but bad for visitors. Maybe limit the amount of guests at one time ?

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.

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.

Great, well-priced activity for kiddos! We did the self-guided tour, which is $20 for two people. I…read morewas unsure if they had any sort of "kids under 2 are free" type policy, so I wasn't sure if my 22-month-old counted as part of our two, but the website said you could pay $10 for additional people when you're at the farm, so I did not worry about it. We weren't charged more at the farm, but still not sure what the official policy is. My husband, I, our toddler, and newborn went on a Saturday morning and had the place to ourselves. You book in advance on the website, and the self-guided tour is booked for 45 minutes. We saw a cow, alpaca, their famed mini-highland cow, chickens, dogs, ducks, a pig, baby (or small) goats, geese, an emu, and rabbits. The geese were a bit aggressive, but Renee put them away for us, which was much appreciated. The alpaca and ducks didn't want much to do with us, but the emu, goats, dogs, and pig were all very friendly. The cow was also very chill and didn't mind us petting him, but wasn't enthusiastic about our presence. I was a little freaked out by the emu, Lulu, but Renee assured us that she was curious but harmless and by the end we were all great friends. Some things to know: do not wear your best shoes. There are, understandably, animal droppings everywhere. There is a walking path from where you park to where you pet the animals, but the animal area is not stroller-friendly. Also, the goats may try to eat your stroller, which can't be good for them. I just baby-wore, and that worked great for us; we'll plan to do that from the start next time. The instructions say to park and then walk up to the big red barn. There were two red barns and nobody at either of them, so we weren't entirely sure if we needed to check-in or something. We also weren't sure if we could just start petting the animals we saw or if there was a specific place we were supposed to be. Renee came out after we'd been there about 10 minutes and chatted for a bit, but having someone greet us and tell us where to start, or at least some clear signage, would have given this the 5th star.

They said the animals that were there for the guests to pet and love on were all cuddly and very comfortable being around people. The hostess on the farm was very eager to please, she was warm and welcoming. The Experience included a charcuterie tray and bottle of wine for the evening. One thing my son talked about was how clear the stars were they could sit outside and look up at the stars and really see them because there was little to know light pollution.

There were snacks provided and we were able to paint. The event was BYOB. We stayed past the end time to hangout and chat by the fire and we did not feel rushed at all. This is a family farm and the atmosphere is very welcoming. I thought it was a great price for the event and all the proceeds go towards the animals and their upkeep. I would attend another event.

It's family run and they have sweet stories on the founding of the space. I went for a moos and mimosas event they had and for $25 you got two drink tickets and the opportunity for endless animal cuddles. They had so many cows and piggies roaming around and I was surprised that they also had horses, chickens, goats, alpacas, and an emu stroll in around (she wasn't even aggressive!) They have a brown alpaca that gives KISSES (for treats, lol) and hurt getting to sit and snuggle up with the cows was really so sweet. I think Pancake was the best girlie, she nuzzled and just laid her head in my lap, when I stopped rubbing her head to check my phone she nudged me like "I didn't say we were done yet" lol, such a cutie. It really was such a good time, I wanna recommend them to everybody, honestly. Just wear something you don't mind getting dirty! I left madddd dusty. Check out their socials though! They post all sorts of events.

I needed some solitude, peace and quiet. The moment I arrived at the house, my shoulders immediately relaxed and there was an immediate release of tension. Every aspect of the home whispered peace. I don't know how to explain it but it even smelled peaceful. Delana was the most amazing host. She surprised me with snacks and anything j could need for my stay was readily available. She even personalized items for my special needs. She gave me a tour of the property, including the beautiful pregnant cows. She gave me space when I needed it but let me be as involved as I wanted to be. I had the MOST incredible experience with the horses. She guided me through an exercise in which I felt healing in my spirit and connected on an energy level with the horses. It was the most remarkable experience and I took away so much from it that I can apply to my daily life. I could not recommend staying in this space that feels like a world away from the hectors of everyday life but is just a very short drive away! I am already planning my next stay!

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.

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!
