Nestled in the lush piney woods of East Texas, Cherokee Trace Drive-thru Safari is a wildlife park that is home to an amazing variety of wildlife. See over a dozen exotic and endangered species that thrive in an open habitat similar to their native territory. At your own pace, enjoy a self-guided drive through the hills and open savannahs of this 300-acre preserve.
From the comfort of your own vehicle, you can observe, feed, and photograph these beautiful creatures. This natural environment has miles of roads that take you into a whole different world. Spot a Watusi (African longhorn cow) mother and calf grazing near a spring-fed pond. Watch the Blackbuck (Indian antelope) “stodding” across an open field. Notice the lovely facial markings of the delicate Lechwe (Africa) and gentle eyes of the Barrisingha (India). Learn the difference between the Fallow (Middle East) and Sika deer (Eastern Asia and Japan).
Have a close encounter with “R. B.”, short for Raging Bull, a Canadian Woods Bison. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, there’s Stella and Oscar – a pair of alligators. Bring the whole family! Bring the class from school! Bring a picnic. Make the short drive to Cherokee Trace. It’s fun. It’s exciting. It’s educational.

Other Amenities ...
The native cedar cabins capture the ambiance of the park. The cabin interiors are natural pine with warm terra-cotta tile floors. The décor is a creative blend of comfortable country, Native American, and animal themes. Many of our animals naturally shed their antlers every winter. We collected and used these antlers to decorate the cabins. Each cabin has a fully equipped kitchen. Both cabins have an outdoor grill (we provide the charcoal). The cabins have a wall-mounted VCR/screen so you can enjoy your favorite movie or select one of the family oriented films available in the Welcome Center and Gift Shop.
The Axis Cabin highlights the beautiful and elusive Axis deer. This cabin sleeps four. It features a queen size bed and two built-in bunk beds made of rough-hewn pine posts. We recommend this cabin for romantic getaways.
