RAFT Ranch

The Clubhouse

Our 1000 square foot clubhouse is temperature controlled and kid-friendly to enjoy activities out of the outdoor elements. On the left side of the clubhouse is an ADA ramp for ease of entry to the clubhouse or the restrooms. Also surrounding the clubhouse is over 3000 square feet of non-toxic artificial turf.

Restrooms

There are 3 indoor restrooms just outside of the clubhouse facility which includes 1 ADA compliant restroom.

Playground

We have a children’s playground off of a covered porch that accommodates a range of ages. We also provide sand art, other sensory table activities, and nontoxic artificial turf to play on for a shaded and sensory friendly outdoor experience.

Barn

Our barn is currently sheltering our Nigerian Dwarf goats but we hope to also add a pony and therapy horse in the near future.

Chlorine-Free Pool

Our newly constructed pool is available for use provided a parent or guardian is supervising their child at all times.  *There is no lifeguard on duty.  During peak times we will be working with local swim trainers to provide lessons TBA on our calendar events.  The pool ranges from 15 inches up to 5 feet. There is a set of fun bubblers in the shallow area as well as a soothing waterfall grotto at the opposite end.  The pool is chlorine free and is maintained/treated with Ozone and UV light.

Spring-Free Trampoline

Tramoplines are great for sensory input. We have a spring-free trampoline that is netted with a zip enclosure to ensure children are jumping in the utmost safe environment.

Basketball Court

There is a  small basketball court area where the cranked backboard can be lowered to accommodate even the smallest of children and is a fun added station to encourage children to spend some time outdoors and absorb some Vitamin D!

Paved Biking or Walking Trail

Kite Flying

Bring a kite! We keep several open fields mowed for flying kites as well as seed semi-annually seed other areas of the ranch for flower picking.

Nature Watching

14 acres on our ranch are preserved and recognized by Texas Parks and Wildlife as a "wildlife preservation".  You will be surprised by what types of birds, deer, etc. that you may see while resting on a bench.

Family Labradors

We have 3 kid friendly family AKC registered Labradors and if you visit the ranch during the right “season” you may see a litter of pups for the kids to play with or “adopt”. All proceeds from our puppies go towards further development of the ranch facilities.

Bird Handling

We have several coops for chickens and quail and that that the children are able to see, feed if they choose and collect a few farm fresh eggs to take home if they are available.

Easel Painting

Enjoy nature while painting with an easel!

Current Projects

We are currently constructing a pond. We visualize pulling up a chair for some quiet time while feeding ducks or grabbing a fishing pole to possibly catch a fish!
