Southfork Ranch

Texans have always believed that they live “larger-than-life,” and where else is that so clearly lived out than at the infamous Southfork Ranch? Make-believe, some say? Perhaps, yet for 13 years (356 episodes), this made-for-TV drama captured the imaginations of millions of people around the world. Guests may enjoy the museum and shopping the Ranch Round-up at the Visitor’s Center where they can buy Southfork Ranch gifts and Texas memorabilia. Additional items that are always of interest are: The prop gun used to frame the well-known question, “who shot JR?”; Lucy’s wedding dress; Video clips from many series’ episodes; and interviews conducted with “stars” of the show. From the Visitor’s Center, guests may take a train ride past the Ewing Oil Office to the Ewing mansion, visit J.R.’s bedroom, explore the grounds and shop at Lincoln’s and Longhorns, where Jock’s 1978 Lincoln automobile is on display.

As a child of the 80s I grew up watching Dallas on TV - the breakfasts on the terrace in gales; the fist fights in the pool; the BBQs on the driveway - and was delighted to see the pool & the windy terrace as I walked across the driveway. I was thrilled to be at Southfork. But as I started the house tour, wandered the grounds & explored, the lack of maintenance & upkeep became more & more evident. The small gardens are not cared for. Everything seemed dirty & neglected. The house weirdly styled & presented. The guides seemingly knew less about the ranch & show than I did - the guy who drove the tractor from the visitor centre to the ranch house even said, ‘I had no idea anyone watched the show outside of the US’. The ‘museum’ (ha!) is basic (I’m generous) and offers little of the shows history and the gift shop offers very little show related merchandise but oodles of tacky home decor & cheap clothing…I mean, seriously, not even a single ‘I shot JR’ T-shirt!!! WHAAT?!? Sadly, whoever owns & operates Southfork today, has no appreciation of the heritage of the ranch. Yes, yes they do weddings there & corporate events and things like that…but that’s not why I paid $20 bucks to visit. The heritage is slowly fading. It’s sad. Miss Ellie is no doubt rolling in her grave ️️️

Our tour of Southfork was wonderful. From the moment we were picked up to when it ended. Our driver was very knowledgeable and pointed out buildings and landmarks along the way. He went out of his way to accommodate us. The tour guide at Southfork was very interesting. She shared her extensive knowledge of the history of the ranch and the filming that was done there. Loved it!

Purchased for my mom. We both had a great time! The tour started from the moment we were picked up. The driver was so knowledgeable and even helped kick things off once on site. The staff on site were very passionate about sharing their Dallas knowledge. Beautiful property!
