We’re not just a team—we’re a family of animal lovers, storytellers, and memory-makers who pour our hearts into every wild adventure at Oak Meadow Ranch.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because of its natural beauty, open space, and the opportunity to create something truly unique that blended wildlife, conservation, and community. The owners purchased the property in the early 2000s with a vision but waited until 2013 to begin developing, carefully planning every detail to ensure the land, the animals, and the guest experience were aligned with their mission. After years of thoughtful preparation, Oak Meadow Ranch opened to the public in 2017, offering a place where people could escape the city, reconnect with nature, and discover unforgettable encounters with wildlife in a setting unlike any other.

What makes this property unique

Oak Meadow Ranch is where luxury meets wildlife, offering unforgettable adventures just an hour north of Dallas. From swimming with otters, hugging sloths, and feeding giraffes to chef-crafted dining, spa indulgence, weddings, retreats, and unique lodging, every moment is designed to connect you with nature and inspire conservation.
