I was looking for a private experience for our family of 3 that doesn't involve a lot of crowds and where my daughter could have private time with animals and this place was perfect! I booked our experience directly through the website: (when you book, I advice you to do it as well to avoid additional fees) https://lostmountainalpacaranch.com/ I booked the 60 minute experience for our family and we were in for such a treat. The owners David and Tina were very welcoming, friendly, and very open to educating us about their farm, the lovely alpacas, their cats, and the super cute guard dog, Bodhi. During the private experience, we interacted with the alpacas and fed them their breakfast, our session was at 10am. We really enjoyed the stories the owners told us about the alpacas and the farm. I really loved the experience as it was just for our group and we throughly enjoyed it, I didn't have to worry about crowds and I wasn't rushed. Can't wait to see the alpacas again the next time we are in the area.

This family ran business is fun and filled with old farm equipment, classic cars, goats, pigs, chickens and stuff you may never have seen before, at least not on one piece of property. The family (staff) here are all engaged in the business a few tending the store and bbq pit, a few behind push mowers keeping the grass at bay and an old man on a old tractor dragging a box-blade across the gravel road and dirt drives. This is a self-guided tour so there's no rush here and there's plenty of shade and seats scattered around the properly to rest your bones. We had just eaten lunch prior to arriving so we didn't get a chance to taste the ribs, pulled pork sandwiches or boiled peanuts but did check out the produce and grabbed a few fresh Georgia Peach to take back to the camper - ripe, sweet and juicy. If you're northbound on I-75 this might be the perfect spot to grab a cold drink and stretch your legs I couldn't imagine a better place to take a driving break...

This is a family run business with all hands on deck. The family includes a very sweet couple that owns this place and they had their kids with them who were playing like they were cashiers. Adorable family. The food was just phenomenal. I got the BBQ rib plate with two sides. The portion was huge and the sauce was perfectly spicy. I had to grab and go but they had some cute repurposed buildings to sit down and eat. They also had a small farm store with home-made jellies and other unique options. I highly recommend them and I hope them so much success.

My wife and I arrived on a warm October day to enjoy the pumpkin patch and U-pick flowers. We arrived in the afternoon, but there was plenty of selection and nothing was "picked over." I paid $16 for a quart sized plastic vase for my U-pick flowers. They sell gallon sized buckets as well. Scissors and water are provided. Be mindful of bees in the field. They won't trouble you if you don't trouble them. There is an area in the back for you to arrange the flowers; I took full advantage of this because this trip doubled as a photo shoot. There were all types of people enjoying the farm; IG girls, families, even one couple using a wagon full of pumpkins as a baby announcement. Pumpkins range from $5-$20 each depending on size and breed. A nice young man named Luke helped us corral our pumpkins and carry them to our car. I didn't know they offered that service, but we tipped well. If you run up an appetite, they have a snack bar with fritters, ice cream, and lemonade. I'll be back next fall!

Parking was calm and plentiful and we weren't bumping into other strawberry pickers left and right. It costs about $20 for a large bucket (which you get to keep) and you pay $1 per person to access the fields. We feared we may have missed peak season but there were still plenty of ripe strawberries to choose from. It is also well organized with the staff directing where folks should go. After we picked our buckets worth, we grabbed a huge fresh lemonade from a parked truck, did some shopping in the cute store, and got a strawberry ice cream. I have to admit this was a bit of a disappointment especially based on all of the rave reviews. To us it tasted like it was pre-packaged and came from the freezer. The strawberries were frozen/rock solid and while they were plentiful it would have been great if they were softer or appeared as though it was fresh churned. Otherwise we really enjoyed the experience and can't wait to go back for picking other fruits throughout the year.

The strawberries are very juicy and ripe! You MUST go when it opens! We got there at 10am when it opens and there was already a line forming so it is even safe to say come earlier and stand in line. Once the ripe ones are picked, they close. Definitely call ahead or follow them on social media for updates on that! They do not let you eat strawberries on the farm...not sure why it's a COVID/CDC thing so that is tough with a 1 year old who is obsessed with strawberries. I've heard other farms allow people to eat as they pick so I'm not sure what that's about.

They are usually closed to the public except for these events. They had a ton of volunteers wearing matching vests which was really helpful. You parked on a residential street and got to walk through the conservancy and look at horses in the field. Then came the fun part. Kids 4 and up could ride on a pony for $5. They did 2 huge round a outs in the corral. You sign a waiver, learn about the conservancy via a waiver, and wait in line to ride the horse. In the meantime they teamed up with DH high (I think) what was selling chicken biscuits and snacks as well as doing face painting. They had 7 horses in the corral that kids were riding in. We are not talking tiny little things either. They were huge! Afterwards, you got to walk by the area at that the horses stay in and could read about them and see any awards the won. They also had free arts and crafts projects setup like making horse puppets. They offer riding lessons, but I didn't tell my kids because I am nervous that they will want a horse.

I do support local non-chains and I am looking forward to biking there on the new extension of the Beltline, so I will be back.
