Oil Ranch is a fun trip out of the city with so much to do for the entire family. Plan on spending a good part of your day here to allow for the drive and all the activities. With lifeguards provided, the swimming pool is open during the summer through September, so bring your swimsuits. Other activities include pony rides, playing among Indian teepees, touring the lake by train, visiting the petting zoo and much more. We were intrigued by hand-milking a cow. Operating hours depend on the time of year, so call ahead. Bring water because it's hot outside. Food is available for purchase but it's limited to concession stand fare.
