Activity Overview
The seeds of the Lazy 5 Ranch were planted decades ago when Henry Hampton began his collection of exotic animals from all over the world. In the 1990s he opened up his grounds and the animals to be viewed by the public. Since then the animal population of the ranch has grown to a population of over 750 animals from 6 different continents. They populate a 3 1/2 mile safari ride which can be enjoyed in one of the ranch's horse drawn carriages or from the comfort of your own car.
