Even though we had chilly weather and a little rain, it didn't stop us one bit. We ended up picking close to seven pounds of fresh strawberries and they were so tasty and juicy. The whole experience of walking row by row and picking the perfect berry was so much fun. There's even a helpful little sign explaining how to pick the strawberries properly so they last longer. *Pro tip, leave a bit of the stem on the strawberry as you pick them, they stay fresh longer. We learned that after the fact, but we'll definitely do it right next time. The farm is huge, around 152 acres of expansive land, which was very green, open, and peaceful. It wasn't crowded at all the day we went, which made it even more enjoyable. The kids had a blast. They have a cute little train ride, a fun bouncing area, and plenty of space for the kiddies to run around. The goats were a big highlight for us. You can buy feed for 25 cents a tiny cup, and we went through four pretty quickly - you might want to grab more upfront because they close at 5 and we didn't get a chance to go back for more goat feed. The setup around the goat area was really nice and whimsical, and there's just so much open space to explore and walk and get fresh air. They also have a small gift shop with ice cream and little goodies, which was a nice touch after being out in the fields. Overall, it was such a peaceful, fun, and memorable day. Beautiful views, great atmosphere, and a perfect mix of activities for both kids and adults. We'll absolutely be back. Easily a five star experience.

Love that they don't charge entry fees! They provide you with a box for the berries and charge $3.75 per pound. My girls and I had so much fun picking the berries and eating them after! We also love the farm's homemade strawberry popsicles and ice cream - absolutely delicious. They also offer pick your own flowers, a bouncy area, a barrel train ride, and various arts and crafts activities for kids. There are also baby goats to feed! Fun for the whole family and an awesome day trip.

It's like someone tried to slap lipstick on a goat and call it a getaway. Everything felt sorta clean... like "good enough if no one looks too close" clean. The house was barely ready, and don't get me started on the random weeds and junk out back. Then there was a full-on wedding using the amenities, and the Tubbs didn't warn us at all. Add in some snippy parking attendant and... PeeeeYew the whole visit stunk And the hosts? At first they apologized for screwing up... then ghosted like moody teenagers when I followed up. Total lack of effort, zero pride, and no clue how to run a proper guest stay. My money is on all their stars are... Incentivized, but that's just what I think; who knows? I've stayed in barns with more hospitality. Literally.

The animals are very used to people, and will eat their food right out of your hand! It's a farm, it's dirty, the animals are dirty, so wear "ranch clothes" and go commune with nature. It's a business, and several of the young animals had been cleaned for an upcoming livestock show. Those animals had "jackets" on! LOL Lots of chickens and chicks around too. Our group got a fresh egg out of the coup! Many baby alpacas around, pregnant mamas segregated, and "visitors" quarantined until checked out. The staff was super knowledgeable, and super nice. You need a reservation, and please be on time, it's a group event! Recommend this usual adventure.

There were snacks provided and we were able to paint. The event was BYOB. We stayed past the end time to hangout and chat by the fire and we did not feel rushed at all. This is a family farm and the atmosphere is very welcoming. I thought it was a great price for the event and all the proceeds go towards the animals and their upkeep. I would attend another event.

It's family run and they have sweet stories on the founding of the space. I went for a moos and mimosas event they had and for $25 you got two drink tickets and the opportunity for endless animal cuddles. They had so many cows and piggies roaming around and I was surprised that they also had horses, chickens, goats, alpacas, and an emu stroll in around (she wasn't even aggressive!) They have a brown alpaca that gives KISSES (for treats, lol) and hurt getting to sit and snuggle up with the cows was really so sweet. I think Pancake was the best girlie, she nuzzled and just laid her head in my lap, when I stopped rubbing her head to check my phone she nudged me like "I didn't say we were done yet" lol, such a cutie. It really was such a good time, I wanna recommend them to everybody, honestly. Just wear something you don't mind getting dirty! I left madddd dusty. Check out their socials though! They post all sorts of events.

I needed some solitude, peace and quiet. The moment I arrived at the house, my shoulders immediately relaxed and there was an immediate release of tension. Every aspect of the home whispered peace. I don't know how to explain it but it even smelled peaceful. Delana was the most amazing host. She surprised me with snacks and anything j could need for my stay was readily available. She even personalized items for my special needs. She gave me a tour of the property, including the beautiful pregnant cows. She gave me space when I needed it but let me be as involved as I wanted to be. I had the MOST incredible experience with the horses. She guided me through an exercise in which I felt healing in my spirit and connected on an energy level with the horses. It was the most remarkable experience and I took away so much from it that I can apply to my daily life. I could not recommend staying in this space that feels like a world away from the hectors of everyday life but is just a very short drive away! I am already planning my next stay!
