Great Graduation Weekend

We rented the boathouse for our family for my daughter’s graduation from Baylor. It was perfect because it’s close enough to Waco but far enough away from the hustle and bustle. Our family enjoys fishing and camping, so this location was perfect!! There are so many things to do at the ranch, everyone was entertained all weekend. The staff was so helpful and friendly!

Hi Jennifer, Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for celebrating such a special milestone with us! Congratulations to your daughter on her graduation from Baylor, what a wonderful occasion. We’re thrilled to hear the Boathouse was the perfect spot for your family and that everyone enjoyed the fishing, outdoor activities, and peaceful setting of the ranch while still being close to Waco. It also means a lot to hear your kind words about our team — we’ll be sure to share them with the staff. We hope to welcome you and your family back to Moon River Ranch again soon for another memorable getaway!
