    We went to TSR today to go to their Easter egg hunt. My kids were super excited about it and since we have been before I was as well. The bar is awesome, the staff friendly and there are so many little hang out spots it's an awesome place to pretend you are on the beach. I was a little bummed with the Easter egg hunt, they said they took care of all of the ant hills but I think they did it the morning of as the ants were still active. I also would have suggested an egg limit as my kids were at the back of the group they only got 2 eggs between all 4 kids. We still had a great time and I was glad we went.

    I took my nephew and son here and we had a blast. The staff made all the difference. They are fun and supportive. Any questions we had they always answered with a smile and went above and beyond. Can’t wait for my next trip here.

    I love this place, I can’t get enough! My whole life I’ve wanted to wakeboard, but I thought you needed an expensive boat. Turns out, you can get a whole day of wakeboarding for less than a trip to the amusement park. If you have your own gear, an all day wakeboard pass costs less than a bar tab at a fancy cocktail bar! Speaking of bars, Ironsides Craft Bar is attached. It has a laid back vibe, good music, and even better prices. It’s a great place to grab a drink after you ride, or sip while you watch your loved one on the water. They have axe throwing as well at Loki’s Axe Haus. It’s fun to let some tension out by letting the axes fly. Those are fun, but I usually come for wakeboarding. Since day one, the dock operators have been nothing but cool and helpful. They gave me tips to get off the dock, and ride on the features. The riders are the same, we love to hype each other up and help new people off the dock and around the corners. You shouldn’t feel embarrassed coming here. We were all making big splashes off of the dock at one point, so there’s no judgement! Another thing I like about TSR is they’re open all year round. You can’t most other on your Christmas break, but at TSR the holiday season is wetsuit season. If you’re still reading, you could have been halfway here by now. Come out!

    This place is awesome!! I started taking my son here at the beginning of the summer and he absolutely loves it. He had never wakeboarded before but with the help from the guides he was able to pick it up really fast!! They also have paintball and axe throwing if we want to switch things up. I would 100% recommend Texas Ski Ranch to all families or anyone who is looking for a good time!!

    THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! The ONLY thing they care about is that you have an absolute blast while you're there. Our instructor Michael was so amazing. Each interaction we had with staff was so kind, helpful and accommodating. They do everything they can to make sure you have a great experience. We're from out of state and would gladly make the trip back just to hang there!

    My brother and I are very tall and when it comes to water sports, not very coordinated. Neither one of us have been able to wake board or ski off the back of a boat and came to the Ski Ranch one evening in hopes of learning! There are “happy hour” times where the price is discounted and even if you don’t sign up for a lesson (which we did not) there are employees to coach newbies like us! There are two sections: one is an advanced area where people with skills were wake boarding, there were ramps and other obstacles for those who want a challenge, and the beginner area for newbies like us and for people practicing new skills. It’s an automated pulley system (instead of a boat) and the speed at the beginners rope is controlled by the operator/employee. My brother and I had a blast and had more success than ever before at getting up and staying up on the board!! AND there are extremely discounted rates on certain days for example a ladies night, a night for first responders & emergency personnel. There are lawn chairs for lounging and a stage with occasional live bands.

    Had a great time hanging out at Texas Ski Ranch. My wife and I came out to the bar Iron Sides and were taken care of by Elena. She was awesome! Took our drinks outside and hung out by the lake. Our new favorite chill spot! A lot of cool events and specials going on throughout the week. Highly recommend. We will be here all the time now! PS. They got a regular Nintendo hooked up inside!

    First time here and I had a blast with friends and everybody wakeboarding here today. I’ll definitely be coming back and getting the punch card! Texas ski ranch is awesome

  • 5/5 Henry S. 1 year ago on Google
    Honestly one of my favorite places in all of Texas. A total blast to kill anywhere from an hour to 8. The addition of the bar and restaurant in-house make this place a one stop shop. Hit the park for some recreation till sunset, grab a drink and some bar food, or hit the restaurant upstairs. The staff is also super friendly, namely Gabe, Eli, Riley, Emily, and Kevin. I would advise if you are a beginner however to come on the weekend so that you can ride Lil Bro (a smaller cable for beginners) before attempting the faster and slightly more technical main cable, but if you’ve ridden before this place is great all year round!

    We were nervous first timers. But the staff explained everything very well. All young kids very polite especially the girls in the front and the young guy at the baby pond. He helped us till we got it down and was very motivating. You could tell he loved the sport and wanted others to learn it. They didn't have lockers but the girls in front offered to hold everything and of course all my stuff was untouched. Definitely going back again!!!!!

    Awesome place…. And wonderful service!! Thank you for welcoming us last weekend during my daughters spontaneous impromptu birthday request!

  • 1/5 Brissy W. 1 year ago on Google
    We went today to wakeboard… the staff is very friendly and so nice. Temperature is 70 degrees and cloudy; after the kids were there about an hour they were freezing! Staff said the water had dropped 15 degrees and also said it was cold. The breeze didn’t help. I paid for all day for two kids ($240.00) we went to have lunch hoping it would warm up but it didn’t. I asked if we could have a voucher to come back on a warmer day - didn’t even want my money back just wanted to come back to enjoy the day with the kids at a later time. They said no so basically I paid $240 for an hour. I think it’s a cool place but think the owner/ manager needs to be more accommodating to their customers and understanding if they expect us to come back. I would have been happy with a 4 hr voucher instead of what I got - nothing!

    Omg the food here upstairs is next level...ADA wheelchair accessible...learn to water-ski or other water sports...cute beach.

    If you're a vendor DO NOT waste your $40 on a booth here. The marketing is absolutely awful and non-existent (would be fine if it was a free pop up and you felt like wasting the entire day) and they have the audacity to be rude when you share your concerns. Spend your time and your hard earned money at a place that actually cares about holding up their end of the deal lol

    Definitely not for big events. Slow service and beer selections are limited. Burger was dry didn't get a chance to try the fries since they ran out. Won't be going back again.

👍 In the area for business and I wanted to give this place a try as I had heard some good things. They didn't disappoint as the service and the food are top-notch.

👍👍 While checking out some backroads in Texas, we came upon this cool tavern and decided to stop and have a cold beer or two. Very cool and authentic bar- obviously where a lot of locals hang out (since everybody knew everybody). This place isn’t trying to be anything more than what it is- a dive bar....
