What is great is you can use the tickets for any day the whole season so you don't have to pick a day to go and worry about needing to change the day! Super convenient and the price is good! We paid for the basic entry ticket and nothing extra and it was worth it! So much is included you don't need to worry about not being able to do anything! We were there for 4hrs and didn't even do all the things we could have. We ate lunch there, the food was expensive but that's common nowadays. I got the pulled pork sandwich and it was delicious! So don't worry about not liking the food, it's well prepared and tons of options. We also got a coffee and it tasted good too! They really have it all! My favorite part was the mutin-busting, they made it so fun! The corn maze was a close second, it's not too hard and fun! This place is super kid friendly and the price is worth all the fun you get to enjoy! Also they out wood chips on the ground everywhere so you don't need to worry about mud! We will be back!

The pumpkin patch itself is not nearly as big or cool as some of the others, and the corn maze was only about waist high, but the overall experience Was way more enjoyable here.

The proprietor was quite nice and provided some very interesting facts and stories about the animals. Our son is almost two years old and was a bit hesitant at first but by the end was walking up to the animals and feeding them by himself. The animals all have movie star and celebrity names - very cute, and are all different colors. It was a bit hard to find and Google Maps first took us to the upper parking lot of the Red Rocks complex. But I was able to call and they provided us an address by text - the small farm is up a dirt road off the main road to RR. The whole experience was about one hour. Be prepared to get some hay on you! I recommend the experience and it is quite unique.

A Truly Memorable Alpaca Experience…read more We visited Smooth Alpaca Experience as a group of six, ranging in age from 12 to mid-60s, and every one of us absolutely loved it. Joe was wonderful -- fun, informative, kind, humorous, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the entire experience engaging for both kids and adults alike. We especially enjoyed getting to know all of the alpacas, along with the hilarious three brother goats who definitely put on a performance for us! We learned so much about alpaca behavior, personalities, eating habits, the shearing process, and the care involved in raising them. It was also fascinating to see the finished alpaca products, including socks, hats, gloves, sweaters, and blankets, and to better understand the process from animal to finished product. Overall, this was a unique, educational, and genuinely enjoyable experience that we would highly recommend. Joe made the day extra special!

They can feed goats, sheep, bighorn sheep, alpacas through fence. Chickens are turkeys are running around free and it's set up great that you can roam and not feel like your on top of other guests. They have a sandbox type silo, a bunch of toy trucks to play with, some climbing and swinging items and a small play house (we did not go in because a bunch of kids were playing). I would say go early bring a lunch and sit out and play and let kids explore. It's a little pricy $15 for anyone over 12 months so a family of 4 is $60 but I'm sure it helps the farm keep well maintained. I would go back and recommend to anyone with small kids.

The price is not terrible but in Tuesday or Wednesday it's free and then they charge for pumpkins. The employees we say were help but they're weren't too many.

To a Spinner, there is no fleece more coveted than the might Alpaca. Never mind you are spinning a…read morefleece that feels like butter and never mind the vast versatility of the fleece, never mind this luxurious fleece is hypoallergenic or the fact you can choose between Huacaya which has amazing crimp, or for he more advanced spinner, can use Suri which has no crimp....just a few good reasons to choose Alpaca fleece but the reason you really choose Alpaca....for me, is the animal itself. How could anyone resist those baby doll faces and sweet temperaments? Now, I have to admit to being a hobby farm enthusiast, mainly because our family used to be hobby farm owners, so the animal is just as important to me as the fleece. When it came time to go on my search to find my first Alpaca Fleeces, I wasn't interested in just ordering on-line or having a friend procure one for me, I wanted to feel my way through the process. You will never imagine my joy at having found 'Stargazers Ranch' in Loveland, Colorado. When you go to Stargazers, you are not going to just purchase a fleece, you are going for the experience! My experience started when my husband helped me into my wheelchair...why is that significant you ask? That is my way of telling you they are completely accessible! Yes, even in a wheelchair, you can have a complete experience and not have to sit at the edge of the barn floor and watch from a distance as happens so many times when you are confined to a chair. When I arrived at Stargazers, I arrived to dozens of fleeces and roving's having been sat out for me. Since I am a relatively new spinner, I needed some advice and instruction in choosing my fleeces. I knew I wanted a skirted fleece since I still have difficulty choosing what should go and what should stay. I was offered a vast array of skirted and tipped fleeces in every color Alpacas have to offer. I love the beauty of natural darker colored Alpacas so that is where my eyes went. I purchased everything from a dark gray, a dark brown and a dark fawn, and, of course, a stunning white from a girl named Curly Sue. The micron counts ranged from approximately 18 to 23 and they all promised hours of joyful spinning. After the delightful experience of mini-lessons on choosing an Alpaca Fleece and going through dozens of choices, having made my decisions, I was offered the opportunity of meeting the stars of Stargazers, the Alpacas themselves. I was treated so kindly. The owners went above and beyond to allow me in the pens with the Alpacas, starting with babies...how fun is that!?! The Alpacas were timid of me at first, after all, I drove in their pens in an electric wheelchair. It was a bit intimidating for them at first, but I was given some treats and it didn't take long for the promise of treats to overcome their skittishness around the wheelchair. In no time, I was surrounded by excited Alpacas. We went from pen to pen, meeting all the girls and boys of the farm...my joy was complete! If you want a fabulous Alpaca Fleece, by all means, go on-line and purchase fleece from Stargazers, you can't do better than their babies. However, if by chance, you happen to find yourself in Colorado and want an experience you will never forget, stop by Stargazers. I am taking home four bags full of beautiful Alpaca fiber but I have to tell you, I have my eye on a little girl we met whose fleece is destine to be on my wheel after her next shearing!!! I have found my Alpaca Fleece source! You should give them a try and make Stargazers your Alpaca Fleece providers of choice!!!

Ranch owner Cindy couldn't have been a more pleasant guide. She provided information about alpacas answering every question we could ask and more. Of course we spent quite some time with about a dozen mothers and babies. With the treats provided, these skittish creatures became our very good friends. Cindy made clear that she would really favor a group of handicapped or disadvantaged children to a bunch of boisterous 8-th graders. This is a working ranch that focuses on stud fees, fleece, and selling well-bred animals and visits are just a small part of the income stream.

For my husband's birthday last weekend, I booked us each a 55 minute api-therapy appointment. We were in our individual huts and the experience was amazing!! Being beekeepers ourselves, we have a great love for bees and completely understand their importance and benefits that they bring to the world. The huts are very cozy and you're provided clean towels if you choose to rest your head on a pillow. While this seems the best way to lay in the hut, you really cannot hear the bees. They provide a face cradle so you can lay on your stomach and that worked so much better. I put my nose between the cedar planks so that I could inhale so much more of the hive air and I cannot tell you how much I absolutely love the smell of wood combined with the scent of honey and honeycomb! Don't worry, the bees cannot get to you as there is a wire mesh to keep them separate from you. Since there is a sliver of light coming through the hive side, you can watch the bees working. The huts themselves are bright and full of light. I fell asleep probably within 5 minutes after I adjusted myself and slept for about 40 minutes. To me, the collective of bees sounded like rushing water once you listen past the single, higher pitched buzzes. We both felt completely relaxed and refreshed afterward. I suggest everyone to give api-therapy a try!!

The chocolate croissant was tasty though. Service was fine but not overly friendly. This place features a restaurant, an urban farm, market, coffee shop and event center all under one roof. The space is large and quite lovely. The market features a small offering of grocery items along with local products. I wish I would have had the time to return as I the restaurant food is homegrown and fresh. Seasonal menus are created. I glanced at the menu and some of the dishes looked so inviting. Hopefully I can return in the future to try out the healthy food.
