Great place to go. Stay for lunch, the prices are decent and the food good. The tour was beyond our expectations, and the tour guide made it even better.

Absolutely a great place to go to if you want to learn some local history as well as native flora and fauna! Our tour guide Kenny was knowledgeable and entertaining.

This was a very cool tour for the family. The kids learned a lot about the different animals and ecosystems on the ranch. We saw wild hogs and alligators as well as a soft shell turtle and a variety of different birds and cattle! Our guide Mike was fun and very knowledgeable, and he even let us pet a baby alligator on the bus! Fantastic experience!

It is managed as if it was a preserve / active ranch so it would be best to contact them directly. There are private hunting areas close to the ranch and they may have information about those as well.

Are there fossils to be found there?
