Big Slough Trail and Auto Tour Freeport, TX 77541

"Pretty cool place! We visited during a drought so it wasn’t what I imagine it normally is, but still very cool to see. Even saw a baby cow break free on the way out! (We made sure he got back in the fence)"

"We saw alligators, it's a beautiful drive The only concern is the aggressive mosquitoes that attacked me upon entering the walking trails"

"Overall a pretty nice tour. Walking path is well crested to be dry. Lots of mosquitoes even in winter. A short trail with plenty of native plant life. The auto tour auto has some problems with sound but the signs did have some info. OLNEY Pond has plenty of plants and birds with plenty of waterborne food. Part of the loop was closed so we got to Roger's Pond and had to turn back."

"Fantastic wilderness with countless birds. Very tranquil expanse of water, cattail, and marshland. We saw egrets, great blue herons, geese, and ducks. The 0.6 mile trail was well maintained showcased features of the park. The Auto Tour drive offered great views of the marshland and flocks of birds. We only encountered one other car, so the drive was very pleasant."

"This place is so beautiful, peaceful and full of life! I wanted to hike the big slough trail loop but was literally chased away by hungry mosquitoes. Bring long sleeve and pants and BUG SPRAY!!"
