Weekend Trip to Sleep Under the Pecan Trees

My family and I had a great time! Rick was a perfect host. We mentioned wanting to do some fishing, so he put us near the pond. We were able to catch some decent-sized largemouth bass and bluegill. At our camp, we were visited by many of the animals roaming around. Willie and Doc really enjoyed hanging around our camp.

Rick was such an amazing host, so welcoming, kind and full of great stories. The camping experience was so peaceful and we can’t wait to come back. We loved having the horses roaming around freely and greeting us throughout the day. One night wasn’t enough, we’ll be back for two! thank you for everything Rick!

Absolutely had a great time with my 2 boys. This was our first time camping and Rick hosted us very well. We felt comfortable and welcomed. The scenery was beautiful and we were isolated. The roaming mules, horses and donkey was very excited for my kiddos. I’m

I am not one with words, but if you read one review, read this one. We arrived and Rick was full of stories and information about the property. He took us to our site (4 wheel drive is a MUST!) which was amazing. He allowed us to rearrange the picnic table and fire ring to our liking. The next morning Rick set our eggs out that we purchased through him at 6am. We went fishing and caught four 2-2.8 pounders. It was amazing! That sunset I took the photography class presented by Rick. It was wonderful. Got a lot of information and he took me to some pretty spots I had not seen before. That evening it rained and stormed. Our tent collapsed and our gear was soaked. This was my first time camping, and because the amazing time Rick provided I am hooked!!!! The animals coming in to my camp was unforgettable and seeing my dogs swim in the ponds, those are memories I’ll never forget! Thank you Rick for having such a beautiful, well maintained and kept up property! Me and my family will be back!!!!

Such a great spot so close to Dallas! Nice spread out campsites, plenty of space to explore and search for the horses. Our daughters loved the horses and especially Willie the mule - they are all friendly and we had no worries about safety when around the horses/mules/donkeys. Rick is super nice and helpful and made us feel welcome and comfortable on his land. Would love to come back!

Overall a good spot not too far from Dallas. While there are other sites nearby, and there is some road noise, the other sites are mostly further away, and broken by trees, and the noise isn’t bad at all. I would recommend this spot if you have kids - mine loved the horses, mules, and donkeys, and the chance to explore on their own!

I've visited this spot several times now, and I still absolutely love it! The peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, and the company of friendly horses and donkeys make it a special place to unwind. The animals are a highlight for me—if you're into it, they’re always around to greet you, but if you'd rather have some space, just give them a little room and they’ll happily wander off on their own. It’s the perfect balance of nature and tranquility.

Great host, Rick is so affable. Willie the mule, the horses and burros are wonderful. The property is absolutely gorgeous and well laid out. Could not have asked for a prettier location.
