My sister and I visited Whispering Pines Alpaca Farm in July 2022. We were the only visitors that…read moreday, which was really nice, and we're so grateful to Danielle and Bill for sharing their farm and animals from time to time. We were lucky that the weather cooperated that day, meaning it was a perfect day to visit the farm and not too hot or humid. We visited with four Nigerian dwarf goats, 10 weeks old. They were adorable and so sweet. Danielle is doing a Hobbit and Lord of the Rings theme, which I think is great, so the goats (all male) are Frodo, Sam(wise), Merry, and Pippin. We got to feed them and pet them and just watch them being happy goats, which was really therapeutic. After that, we spent time with the alpacas. Bill showed us how to walk them on a halter. They weren't in the mood for that that day, which was fine with me and my sister. We wanted what was best for the animals. We got to feed them and hose them down a little, and we learned a lot about both the goats and alpacas. Danielle was an elementary schoolteacher, and so she's great at communication and putting you at ease. They saved the alpacas they have from overcrowded conditions, so we were very happy to hear that. Now the alpacas can spread out and soak up the open space. I looked at various alpaca farms online, and there are many. Why did I choose Whispering Pines? Because they offered the longest visit with the animals and farm in general, and they just sounded like the best. We're very happy we chose them. Rest assured, Danielle and Bill give their animals lots and lots of TLC. After visiting with the animals, my sister and I had lunch on the farm at a picnic table, relaxing in the peace and quiet, watching the alpacas and the goats. Danielle was extremely generous with her time, and so thoughtful with little touches that have a big impact and make you feel special. For example, when we arrived, there was a sign with our names on it welcoming us. At the end of the visit, we got gift bags with our names on them, thanking us for visiting. Honestly, we can't thank Danielle and Bill enough. Our visit was worth way more than what we paid in money; we have a lifetime of memories.

My Husband and I had our ceremony and reception at Woodsedge and it was nothing short of marvelous…read more Our ceremony/reception was in October and we had the fall foliage as our beautiful back drop. Amy and Adam were great the entire night coordinating with the vendors, setting up heaters for our guest, and making sure everything went to plan. We unfortunately had an incident where one of our shuttles took the wrong route and came across a bridge that the bus could not cross. Thankfully Amy and Adam jumped into action and sent down ATVs to pick up our stranded guest. I would definitely recommend this venue for anyone that wants to have a unique wedding with Wonderful llamas and alpacas.

And the good news: you don't have to get married when you're there - although we do recommend that - one can also just explore the grounds, feed the animals and visit the store with awesome wool, meat, honey and other farm products. We'll stop by again soon when the weather clears up!

Visited the farms today for some blueberry picking. Even though they sustained significant damage…read morebecause of severe winter storms, there was plenty of picking to be done today. They have a good range of options available in good seasons: apples, blueberries, flowers, etc. They also have a good prices in their store, where they have a small amount of produce and food goods. I like a farm that keeps their stock simple like this-- not a lot of random more tourist-y items but just the food and products from it. There's a lot of room for picking here, but not a lot of shade on directly sunlit day like today. That being said, it was still a good time going in and out of the rows and we were able to get a decent amount of fruit with us. Price per lb. was more than great too! I'd definitely love to visit again-- 1-1.5 hours is sufficient for this location!

Lots of items packed in the stand. Fresh produce, baked goods, homegrown grass fed beef and dairy. Most of the items are straight from this farm while some are sourced from other local farms. I came away with steaks, burgers, hot dogs, heirloom tomatoes, valley shepherd yogurt, Lioni mozzarella and some granola. Great spot with reasonable prices. I'll definitely return soon.

The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, making it a great place to spend time tasting and enjoying the space. We went on a weekend when they were hosting the Artisan and Wassail Market, which made the experience even better. There were so many talented vendors and such a fun, festive vibe throughout the market. It was clear how much care goes into both the cider and the events they host. Highly recommend stopping by, especially during one of their special market weekends.

Next time we visit in the Spring, we're going to come for the pony rides. They also sell pastured raised pork, chickens, eggs and more. I purchased the hot sausage which was delicious.

I am not sure how many they allow per group. The property is beautiful and clean and the alpacas are clearly well cared for. At the beginning, one of the employees gave an interesting ten minute lesson on alpacas, the difference between them and llamas, and some other random facts and safety tips. We then got to visit two different pens and interact with the llamas. Included in your fee is a small bag of their food which went a long way. The alpacas all had different personalities but they were all friendly. We really enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend checking them out!

I took my kids and visiting family here on a Thursday when the kids had no school. I hear it can…read moreget crowded on the weekends, but on Thursday when we arrived a little before noon, it wasn't bad. They had a steady stream of newcomers but not too crowded. It was fairly easy to find though going there, my map told me to go down a treacherous gravel road which I wasn't terribly fond of. They have a moderately sized parking lot and you'll see this large, red barn. That's where you get your goodies (there's often a line) and where their store is. We stopped by for a treat first. They sell ice cream, cider floats, and what is a "TikTok famous" coffee float with donut. We got: Cider ($4) - I didn't actually drink this. I got it for my kid with food allergies. He wanted ice cream but they do not know if the ice cream they use contains eggs or not so we played it safe. My kid thought it was okay but finally finished it later. He typically prefers regular apple juice. Cider float with donut - you have a choice of no donut for $2 less. It's like a root beer float but with cider instead of root beer, black and orange sprinkles around the time of the cup, whipped cream, and a powdered cider donut over it all. I shared this with my daughter. That donut was delicious! Warm, tender, and crisp on the outside. The drink was great! I do wish it came with a spoon because it got difficult finishing the last of it. Warning: if you have one of these, the bees are coming for you. They use some sort of caramel-like sauce to get the sprinkles to stick. Overall, quite good. Maple cider donut ($3): my sister got this and she said it was amazing, but she said she thought $3 was a bit much (the unglazed donuts are $1.25 each). She's vegan, so didn't partake in the float, but she also wasn't going to ask if there's milk in the donut. If you're getting only donuts, they are purchased in the store. They have tables and chairs nearby for you to picnic and enjoy your treats. Going through the gates, there was a table but they were busy with other people so we walked right in. There is no entrance fee, which was nice. You go through the apple orchard first. It seems like most of the apples have been picked through, though there are a lot of developing apples. Some of the nicer ones were way too tall for us; they don't provide ladders. We only managed to find one that looked nice. At the end, there used to be a sunflower field and the corn maze. It's epic but you don't know how formidable until you're past the point of return and realize it's not a kids maze. We were in there for a while! Even met other kids that thought they'd be lost forever. The corn stalks are taller than a human and they're pretty dense so you can't look over or through them. It's a true maze and I was impressed. I wish they would provide a paper maze puzzle of the corn maze because I'm so curious how it is from above. Lots of dead ends. What I can say is don't lose hope. You'll get there! (When we finally found the exit, it was almost like a dream because we had been staring at corn for so long.) In hindsight, it was good we ate something first. Once done, we explored the sunflowers and saw the pumpkin patch. As we headed out, we went to pay for our lone apple and we discovered THE CORN MAZE IS NOT FREE. It's $10 per adult and $5 per kid. They charged us $1 for the single apple. I guess they work on the honor system? I didn't mind much because that maze clearly took planning. Before we left, we visited the store full of baked goodies. I got a few cider donuts, a dumpling, and a piece of crumb cake because they just brought out a fresh tray. Plus a lattice harvest pie. The pies with crumble aren't vegan, but the lattice pies are made of vegetable shortening. Restrooms! They have a row of port-a-potties by the parking lot. They're actually the cleanest ones I've been to before. No sinks but they do have a dispenser of antibacterial hand gel. The openings are a bit large so if your kid needs to use the toilets, hold onto them. Overall, it was quite enjoyable and I definitely think everyone should go through a corn maze of this caliber at least once in their life. The apple pickings were sparse but at least you get delicious floats and donuts! Note: they have gluten free goodies in the store but they are nut based (almond flour). They also had one gluten free-vegan item.

There wasnt any pumpkin left in the field to pick and the apples were not event there on the trees. I would definitely have to say hand down to the cute little store - there was a bakery side and oh my gosh the donuts , the cookies and the Tik Tok famous drink was out of this world. So the 2 hour trip was definitely worth the drive. The service was okay the individuals behind the counter to order the Tik Tok drink had a bit of a attitude when I was asking about questions. Just stay patient. Other then that I would highly recommend coming here and trying a piece of all of there different donuts and cookies are soo soo good. They even had a pumpkin cider donut which I never had before. Don't forget to stop by and check them out.

And a purple potato mash that was ... I mean everything was beyond our hopes. We chose the fresh fruit desert that had a very unusual combination, 2 of which I'd never had before. I'm now a convert. We were served by Tracy clearly and expert (warm but not making herself the focus) with Brady in training and already up to speed. Some things I noticed. When food came out the whole kitchen came out and served everybody at once! How refreshing to see that. All servers were attentive and paying attention to the entire room. No one felt unnoticed and forgotten. The wonderful woman behind the desk at the entryway, took us on a tour of the event space with complete joy and enthusiasm. She didn't seem put out at all in fact I wanted to just hang out with her for a while. So welcoming. The second we walked in the door everyone said hello to us as if they had known us for years! We just moved here. We had never been there in our lives. The property is perfectly maintained, makes quite a statement, and the new converted barn was my dream barn. My only regret is that I didn't get to meet all the sheep on the property. If any guests come to visit us in our new home in French Town, we're going to recommend they stay there in one of the cottages possibly or the in itself so that they can have the ultimate comfort and the elegance. They would expect in an overnight that I fear, our guest room will not lend itself to. I want to get married again so I can get married there! I want to eat there once a week! Gratitude to my niece who we asked for a recommendation of where we should eat for a nice meal to celebrate my husband, after a big achievement. She has lived here for three years and as a trained nutritionist and chef herself. She said the only place you should go is the Woolverton Inn and its New Restaurant. She will be receiving a gift! Lastly, I was so overwhelmed upon entering the restored barn that I forgot the name of the elegant man who received us with such grace. He's a gracious host and constantly circulated the room keeping an eye on the flow with light personnel suggestions ( potato soup with lobster next time! I promise) and birthday wishes for a large families grandmother. Go, enjoy, stay there, eat there, bring friends there! Bon apetite!
