Weekend Trip to Big City Little Farm

It was so cool!! The tent was enormous and more than enough space for 2 adults and 2 dogs. The accommodations were cute and cozy and Cherise was extremely responsive and welcoming :)

1 night at Magnolia Gardens Park

It was a little confusing as there was no designated Campspot. Just a lot of picnic tables. So we parked near one and set up camp with our RV for the night. We loved how private it was and quiet it was. Now that I understand how it works. I would definitely go back again.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had an amazing experience at this campsite! Our group consisted of two families with children ranging from 5 to 11 years old, and the ranch was the perfect size for them. The kids had a blast riding their bikes to the lake, fishing from the boats, and paddling around in the boats. The sunsets over the lake were absolutely stunning, and the overall vibe of the site was everything we hoped for. It felt like we were immersed in the forest, surrounded by trees, which made the experience even more magical. The site itself was spotless, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the rural toilet near Site 12. It was equipped with toilet paper, a light with a sensor, and added a level of comfort we weren't expecting. Even the family dog was friendly and welcoming, which was a nice bonus! Julie’s family made the experience even more special. Everyone was incredibly kind, and we enjoyed chatting with them. Eddie, in particular, shared fascinating stories from his wonderfully adventurous life. We’re already looking forward to returning and exploring other sites! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly camping experience.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

This is our second trip to 5D ranch. We brought out a small group of kids to celebrate an 11th birthday. Julie was wonderful in introducing us to her horses. Campsite 22 was perfect for our needs. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Camping on Julie's land was incredible! Beautiful wildflowers, boats to borrow for the lake, and gorgeous scenery! Incredible land and such kind owners, please stay here!!!

Weekend Trip to The Navasota River Ranch

The views at Hilltop Prairie were gorgeous! We loved getting to explore the property with our kids and dog. William was a friendly and welcoming host, giving us maps and explaining the layout of the property and stayed in touch through the app. The property is far enough from town to feel secluded, but close enough that a run to the store for forgotten supplies was quick and easy. We would definitely recommend this place!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

First solo camping trip and had a great experience. Not just a regular concrete pad with water and electricity but a true outdoor experience. It felt like I just drove into the forest and picked a spot. Well kept and the trails were beautiful. Easy directions and Julie was a pleasure to speak with. Will definitely be back

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had such a great time at 5D ranch! A great little hidden gem not far from College Station. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to The Navasota River Ranch

This place is a must if you’re close to Houston/Austin and enjoy the outdoors. Plenty of fishing opportunities and lots of trails to walk with the kids. We did my sons birthday there and it couldn’t have turned out any better

The views were beautiful, first morning I heard the rooster crowing and cows mooing, didn’t see either, enjoyed the meet n greet with the horses and ponies! Everyone was super helpful and respectful. The wind blowing in the tall pines and all the birds singing was delightful. Bonus seeing people bring their horses here to ride! Slept 9 hours one night and had a 3 hour nap one day. Just want I needed!! Will definitely be back!!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

The spot #1 was exactly how they described it,and Julie was very nice she went above and beyond making us feel comfortable.It was my wife and daughters first time tent camping and they both fell in love with it! Going to be back for sure! Also the fish was great caught a lot of bass and this place is perfect love it!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We stayed for the weekend in our teardrop camper. Spots are spread out enough that you feel fairly private but still can have a nice chat with your neighbors. We loved our stay!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

We had a wonderful time fishing, hiking and exploring. Many thanks to Julie and 5D Ranch for hosting us! The property and surrounding area is beautiful.

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Me and my girlfriend spent the weekend at site 10 on the ranch. Had an amazing time! Camp was quiet and so were the neighbors. Julie was so helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed meeting the animals! Trust me, it’s worth it. Something about combing a horses mane hahahaha. Stars, lake and quigley the dog were all amazing experiences. Can’t wait for our next weekend there!

Weekend Trip to The Navasota River Ranch

My husband and I had not been camping in over 3 years. we went with another couple and made our weekend home right up on the cliff overlooking the Navasota River. It was breathtaking, we had such a wonderful time. We wanted the weekend the relax, do some fishing, have a small fire, stay up really late and just be out away from our everyday life. The fishing was really good, everyone in our party was able to catch a fish if not multiple. The owners of the place were extremely friendly and even gave us a guided tour of the land to meet the needs we were looking for. We will be back to this location again,

Weekend Trip to The Navasota River Ranch

Everything is as described, gracious host and a great getaway from Houston.

Weekend Trip to The Navasota River Ranch

We absolutely loved camping at the Navasota River Ranch. William is one of the nicest people we have ever met. When checking in he talks to about what experience you’re looking for and recommends a camp site. He put us at a place where we’d see the stars. It was absolutely gorgeous. Picturesque. This was a first time camping and he give us good tips and helped us find a lot of firewood for our campfire. We felt completely isolated with great privacy. It felt like it was just us and the nature. The property is insanely big and there’s so much to explore. You’re definitely spaced out from other campers. Our dogs had a blast roaming around. Will be booking again soon!

Weekend Trip to 5D RANCH

Host was very communicative and help with all my questions before booking. Tent site was easy to access and had plenty of room

Campsite #24 was private and surrounded by trees! The campsites are well spaced out and we never heard or saw anyone else while in camp. Everyone had a wonderful time. I would certainly recommend 5D Ranch to anyone

The Navasota River Ranch

14 sites · RVs, Tents600 acres · Navasota, TX

The Navasota River Ranch is a 600 ac parcel of land bounded by more than a mile of the Navasota River on its west side and two tributary creeks on its north and southeast sides. The river bottom is wild and untamed, while the rest is rolling hills reminiscent of the prairie that once greeted settlers. Nearby is Bryan-College Station home of Texas A&M University To the west on Hwy 105 is Washington on the Brazos State Park. This is the location where delegates gathered to hastily draw up a declaration of independence before joining the Runaway Scrape to avoid capture and execution by the advancing Mexican Army. Farther down the road is the famous Blue Bell creamery in Brenham. The tour and ice cream are well worth the trip. On the property are miles of Jeep trails excellent for off road and 4WD vehicles. Guests might prefer hiking along these trails or strike out on foot trails and game trails. Thanks to the hunters who have come for the deer and feral hogs over the years there are numerous observation structures for viewing wildlife up close, or just enjoying the solitude of the deep woods. Three ponds offer bass and perch fishing from the bank or bring your own boat. And then there is the Navasota River...

Coushatte Recreation Ranch Community

21 sites1 acre · Bellville, TX

Coushatte Recreation Ranch stands out as a unique destination in Bellville, Texas, thanks to its rich history and connection to the land once inhabited by the Coushatte Indians. Established in 1877 by the Nelius Family, the ranch began as a cotton and cattle farming operation, utilizing horses in the fields until 1948. In the 1950s, Trenckmann Nelius diversified the ranch by introducing chicken and egg production, while still raising cattle and growing maize to feed the chickens. In 1973, Trenckmann and Margie Nelius transformed their vision into reality by founding Coushatte Recreation Ranch, initially offering just 24 campsites. Over the years, the campground has expanded significantly to accommodate 225 sites, complete with full hookups for both 30 and 50 amp service. The campground's name pays homage to the Coushatte Indians, and visitors can explore an Indian Mound on the property, where numerous arrowheads have been discovered. After many years of dedicated management, Trenckmann and Margie passed the torch to their son Howard and his wife Pamela, who operated the ranch until November 2019. The campground is now under the ownership of George Jarkesy, who aims to enhance the experience for guests.
