What Guests are Saying

What an extraordinary and immersive experience, just like an African safari created here in the center of Texas! From the wonderful staff to the impeccably decorated villas and visitor center to the spectacular animals…… Fantastic!

Vanessa and John

I can't say enough positive things about this place. If you love Giraffes or just unique experiences in your life you MUST check this place out. My husband took me last year for our Anniversary and it's still the most magical experience. Absolutely everyone there from the animal care giver, the front desk staff to the cleaning people are the happiest, kindest people you will ever meet.

We are in awe of everything that you have built here and so thankful to be able to experience it for a few days. Your staff is incredible, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. Thank you for all that you do for the rhinos and giraffes and conservation in general and for offering us this opportunity!

What an experience! Longneck Manor – you have something special! A truly, unique opportunity, we made memories that will last a lifetime.

Christie and Brian

I wanted to just emphasize what an amazing time we had staying with you this past week in the Giraffe Suite. It was most definitely an incredible experience. Being able to just sit and watch the giraffes interact in the barn each day and evening was so relaxing and going to sleep watching them and waking up seeing them out the bedroom window was incredible. All in all we had an amazing experience and definitely look forward to coming back again and spending more time. We appreciate your commitment to the animals and to the experience! 5 stars from us!

The Animals of Longneck Manor

The goal of Longneck Manor is to provide a fun personal experience while helping to save animals in the wild. We do this by combining the best elements of a good zoo with that of a good conservation organization. So you get to meet some real live conservation ambassadors (both four and two legged species) as well as contribute to a non-profit (tax deductible) conservation fund that works directly with proven conservation heroes.

Longneck Manor is the home to a “Crash” of three rhinos (Fred, Barney and Justin) as well as a “Tower” of giraffes (Kafele, Betty, Tana, Kili and Indy).
Our animal ambassadors help guests connect with animals in the wild and help conservation efforts with our partner organizations.
