  • The Heritage Village Museum is a fun place to spend the day and eat lunch. There are several historic buildings to see along with nature trails and a family style restaurant.

    This is one of your best. Not because it's better than any other, but because it is a place that off the beaten path that screams humans working and playing hard. Thanks.

    With the hill country getting all the attention it’s nice to see east Texas getting a little. While a lot of areas are just oceans of bland corporate pine plantations there are still some beautiful naturally wooded forest areas and nice friendly small towns.

    Hello,. I live in. Woodville Texas & go to the Heritage Village to eat all the time. Don't forget about the Picket House, serving home cooked foods family style. Yes a very good place for family fun. Very educational for learning the past way of living in. E. Tex.

    You did such a nice job of showing Heritage Village. And included the beautiful library, too. The food at the picket House is delicious -always a great place to stop when you’re hankering for some crispy fried chicken, mashed taters, and peach cobbler.

    Hey Secrets of Texas! I’m on Day 1 of my Secrets of Texas vacation. I’m based in Bryan and today am visiting Navasota, Anderson, Plantersville, Rhoan’s Prairie and Huntsville. I must have watched your videos a dozen times this week to build my itinerary. Wish me luck!

    I'm rolling up on 65 years old now and clearly remember my grandparents taking me along with my brothers there some 55 years ago . It's expanded over the years but still had plenty for our little minds to soak in. What an adventure.

    The Pickett House Restaurant is the best thing there. Fried chicken and Chicken n dumplings is the best main course ever.

    Eat at the Picket House. You won't be disappointed. Chicken and dumplings. Fram raised vegetables. They used to serve sassafras tea but sadly had ti quit serving it. It made your heart race.

    Went hiking around the area earlier this year and like you mentioned there are such a variety of different trees there. Over off the Kirby Nature Trail there is a whole little grove of those magnolia trees I came across. I had to sit down and have a snack under them before continuing. The big thicket area of Texas has so many little treasures tucked off in the woods

    The restaurant is awesome also, they dress like old times, have shareable tables and serve food in family bowls! But sadly they have resorted to instant potatoes. They always serve good fried chicken and awesome cobbler.❤

      That's a neat place to go. Very similar to this, but not as many trees. They have a Centennial historical marker out front for the Lucas Gusher.
