If you want a real taste of rural Texas, this place is great. Sit on the front porch and watch the cow and pick up trucks pass.

Wonderful catching up with friends

This was the first opportunity since COVID for us to get together with a few other families that we see yearly. It was a great place to stay and it had room for all of us. There was many thing we were able to do on the property (hiking, feeding the goats) and there was plenty of space for the kids to run around in the fresh air. We were also only 15 to 20 minutes away from many attractions (Fossil Rim, Dinosaur Valley State Park, Paluxy Heritage Park, Big Rocks Park) and eating (Loco Coyote, Hammonds BBQ). It was a lovely and we wish we could have stayed longer.

Perfect for our Family

The Habari house with 5 bedrooms was perfect for our 3 families. We enjoyed the beautiful country setting by sitting out on the porch and having a fire in the fire pit for our smores. Jeff was very thoughtful for stopping by to ask our grandson to ride down with him to feed the cows. A great stay for us!

Nice country getaway spot

It was a fun and relaxing getaway for our family of 7. The land, house and location helped us foster our family's love of nature. The front porch was perfect for coffee and breakfast in the morning. The view was beautiful. We went a few hikes around the property. Our children favorite things about staying at the house were the interesting rooms and feeding the goats and Zoey the donkey. We hope to come back again some day.

Beautiful and relaxing

This is a great ranch, one of my favorite places in Texas! Really amazing! This was our second time here and we plan to come back again. We enjoyed the nice views, hiking, bird watching, or just sitting on the porch. Kids loved to feed the goats and the cave! The property manager, Sandy, is a very nice person and gave us lots of information. We were lucky that we could even participate in a yoga class on one morning . Habari house was perfect for 2 families!

We had a wonderful visit. This is the perfect place for family gatherings. We enjoyed nature walks, seeing cows and goats and the beautiful stars at night. There 14 of us and the house was perfect with plenty of beds for sleeping.

Family Thanksgiving 2019

This amazing property is a gem. 8 adults & 3 kids were able to explore the vast nature this property has to offer. The house was big enough to for our family to have privacy when desired. Lots of room to encourage interaction with music, games and just relaxing. The plus was NO TV but internet if you needed it. Big porches allowed people to sit outside if it rained. Definitely recommend.

Friends and fun

The house has a very "homey" comfortable vibe in a somewhat remote peaceful setting. Was perfect for a group of friends or family enjoying downtime, sitting on the porch and watching the deer, fishing in one of the ponds or hiking and running on trails around the property.

Family (Texas Safari) Vacation at Fossil Rim Wildlife Center

The house was spacious enough for the 5 family units we had. The house is fully equipped and all you need is food! We will definitely be back to make more wonderful family memories.

Beautiful, clean, well maintained, comfortable beds, nice kitchen and grill

The house was perfect for our extended family. The house was very clean and my 85 year old parents slept well. The ranch is quiet and a great place to relax. We played games, went to fossil rim and feed a giraffe, horseback riding, so many great activities in the area. We will come back again. The people at the ranch made us feel like part of the family.
