The gift offers a great selection of both lavender infused skin care products as well as cooking/baking foods, such as the lavender syrup or her freshly made lavender lemon curd. She also has hand-crafted lavender scented candles, eye pillows, and actual freshly cut lavender. For planning purposes, you can easily spend an hour or more here or you could do a quick stop within about 20 minutes. She is open until the end of July at the actual farm....so make it plan to visit before the end of the month!

This weekend escape was just what was needed! The fun things that Ashland and the surrounding area offers was topped off with everything that her private retreat brings... a beautiful country setting, a quiet comfy room that feels like a home, special goodies that fill out the coffee bar, a spa for ultimate relaxing AND ice cream! Another trip is definitely in our future!! AMAZING!

I thoroughly enjoyed myself on all occasions: Applinger is a magic place right off I-5 with beautiful scenery, tranquil setting, and of course Bubba the horse (for whom they gave me carrots to share w/him both ways). The Orchard Suite is beautiful and comfortable, and Lisa does all that she can to make it memorable. I really don't even have any little complaints, except that I can't just check out of my busy life and stay there. Can heartily recommend and will certainly return myself - can't wait.

I thought I had to wait till my next trip to freezing Pennsylvania Amish country to enjoy the best for-purchase eggnog I've ever had. The spouse brought home a bottle of Alexandre Family Farms Homegrown Eggnog from Whole Foods. It was a backup plan I guess, in case the homemade version I attempted didn't turn out favorably. My concoction came out okay, but was a bit too thick and mealy. I lessened the sugar by half which still gave a good sweetness. Still being in the eggnog mood, I poured a glass of AFF's to try. Wow, yum!? Talk about the perfect consistency and flavor profile, rich in spices and not overly sweet. I did mix in 2% milk to lessen the sweetness even more, and to stretch the batch. The ingredients are all natural which is the biggest positive. OVERALL: Definitely buying this next season and will never attempt a homemade version again!

I haven't been here for years and years, but when I was passing by, I decided to stop in. It's a…read moregreat place to visit. It's basically a drive-through zoo. A lot of of the animals roam free, but then some of them like the elephants, giraffes, big cats, etc. are in enclosures. But they do have a good amount of room in their enclosures. This place is an accredited zoo, so they have standards that they have to follow. Some of the animals were a bit farther away, some come right up to your car. Especially in the area where you are allowed to feed the animals. I didn't buy a feed cup, but quite a few of them were still walking up to my car,, hoping that I had food. Sorry guys... it's just so much fun seeing the animals up close. Normal drive-through time is an hour to an hour and a half, but depending on how many times you stop, and how many cars are in the park, it could definitely be more. It's all up to you. If there are a lot of cars stopped for a specific animal, you can take a picture, and then go around the cars that are stopped. There's plenty of room to do so. In addition to the drive-through, they also have Safari village, which has more animals, a train ride, animal shows, restaurants, and snack bars, even a playground for the kids. It was $29.95 for adults, less for kids and seniors. If you are military/veterans/1st responder, you get the best discount. Free! I thought that was very generous of them. Thanks for the great visit. I will be back the next time I'm passing through.

I purchased four expensive trees from this nursery. Shortly after planting, one of the trees began…read moreshowing signs of significant stress, while the other three - planted in the same area and under the same conditions - continued to thrive. I contacted the nursery for guidance and assistance but did not receive a response for more than two weeks. When they finally replied, I was told they do not guarantee their plants. No effort was made to inspect the tree, discuss possible solutions, or offer any accommodation. Instead, the response focused on suggesting that the issue was the result of something I had done. I understand that plants can be unpredictable and that not every issue is covered by a guarantee. However, I was disappointed by both the lack of responsiveness and the unwillingness to work with me toward a resolution. As a result, I will not be doing business with this nursery again. Based on my experience, customers should not expect much support once the sale has been completed.

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! First time visit on 4-5-25…read more Spent about 30-45 minutes walking around looking at trees and shrubs. It wasn't too busy, maybe 20 customers all perusing the lot. Not once did an employee offer to help. One employee was not busy and actually walked in a circle around me then went over to help someone else thirty feet away. I then saw the same employee helping another person that just came in well after we did. Not a single employee greeted us. We were looking for specific items and had questions but were ignored. Although the inventory is quite good, we wound up going to another nursery in town and spent a few hundred dollars on shrubs and got amazing customer service. Looks like we won't be going back to Shooting Star Nursery ever again. First impressions are always lasting ones.
