    We had my daughter's birthday party here in January 2025. The owner, Brenay, was very laid-back and easy to work with. Tons of cute animals and they are all rescues! There were lots of picnic tables, benches, and chairs. Definitely bring your own tablecloths because everything gets dusty from being on a farm, of course. come early so you can clean up a little bit and organize it the way you'd like to have it for the party. There is a bathroom available, but it's a portopotty. Make sure to bring your own hand sanitizer for after petting animals or using the bathroom. There was plenty of space to set up a jumper, and we ordered a pretty big one. Brenay also had great connections to help us rent a jumper easily. This was a very fun party and I would recommend this location to others.

    We went here April 1st 2024 for my daughters birthday party. The owner is an absolute angel- she is great, very kindhearted person. I went to look at the property a few weeks ahead & it was not up to par, but we had horrible winds at the time so she assured me that she would be cleaning up well for my daughters birthday. Unfortunately, the party area on the barn side was not as expected, and I was extremely disappointed, but made the best of it for my guests & her birthday. As far as the animals, they seemed well- loved and taken care of, and she provided teaching & extended time to spend with the animals if desired . The hospitality was great, but again, the trash was not. If a party is expected to come, more attention should be provided to the overall image for guests and children. The kids did not have any issues of course , but their parents were not comfortable & of course as the host and parent, it was embarrassing to explain that I didn't expect it either. Was hoping for a different outcome & more visits from us. If you have small children , there is only a port-a-potty & the kids didn't want to use it. Bring a small potty if possible - we did this and it worked out for the toddlers. A lot of animals promoted were not there such as the turkeys, bunnies & turtles. I understand some get sold etc, but updating the flyer for parties is a must, so confirm before you go Overall, these issue can be fixed & there is a lot of potential there & again; owner is great and animals seem loved.

    We brought my nephew who is almost 2 to see the animals, which he really enjoyed! The animals are friendly and approachable! There was a baby pig that my mom picked up! Interesting fact about pigs they are pregnant for 3 months 3 weeks 3 days, which I leaned that day! It is a pretty cool story how this place all got started, which I will leave for the owner to share during your visit! Definitely a nice family outing!

    I took my 1 year old here and, let me tell you, this place is so awesome! One of the few places in the area that actually allows you to interact with the animals and be very hands-on. The owner is a great host and the volunteers are all very knowledgeable and super friendly. It feels like family when you go! You will not be disappointed if you visit! ALL the animals are extremely friendly, it's amazing!

    The best petting zoo! All animals look healthy and well care. Much better than other petting zoo we been. Not only my son enjoy the animals but also my dog! The location is a bit difficult to find cause it locates in the middle of residential area and small sign.

    My family and I went to Victoria Gardens In Rancho Cucamonga. I was looking for something kid friendly to do in the area. I found Rancho Los Fonseca on Yelp and it said appointment needed. Called and right from the start the owner was so friendly and accommodating. She explained how they were located in San Bernardino County about 20 min from Victoria Gardens . Upon arrival We were not sure if we were in the right place but then we saw the huge sign and the owner came out greeted us with a warm welcome. Let me just say that my kids loved it. Their favorite animals were the piglets & the baby goat " French toast" If in the area again we would come back also we had family and friends asked us where this place Was located because they saw our photos and videos . Thank you for a wonderful time

    Petting the goats
    Kimberly V.

    Loved this place! The kids had so much fun brushing the animals and running around with the ducks! There's so many animals to see and they're all so sweet and gentle with people. The goats are all very calm which our kid loved because any other petting zoo we go to the animals try to get on you for food and scares the kids. The owner was super sweet and very informative throughout the whole experience! We learned a lot of facts about her animals and their names! We definitely recommend this place

    Found this on yelp since the museum nearby was closed due to covid and we didn't want to drive home with disappointed kids. This zoo works on appointments but the owner was super nice and was able to squeeze us in last minute. She was very kind and attentive. It was a great little petting zoo and we got to hold and pet lots of different animals including 5 day old piglets. My 3 year old was in heaven.

    Had fun experience. Took the kids and they had a great time with the friendly animals. They had a nice shaded area for the kids to play as well which was nice. Definitely worth the time and it's so close by which makes it easy.

    If you or your kids enjoy animals then this is the place to be. Definitely hands on. Animals are super friendly. I have a 11 month old and all the animals were really good with her. The lady is really nice and friendly. She makes you feel comfortable in the environment. My son loved the bunnies and was trying to keep them lmao. Definitely coming back, see you soon!

    Highly recommend everyone to come check this petting zoo out! Super kid friendly. All the animals are amazing and friendly. Easy and quick with booking an appointment. The host Brenay is Super sweet, makes sure you're having a good time and let's you spent enough time with each animal. Definitely will be coming back. Loved our experience here.

    So welcoming
    Brittney S.

    Brenay is so sweet and kind! Her animals sure are well taken care of. I came to visit with my 4 year old daughter and husband. My daughter was a little scared of the animals but both Brenay and Jose made sure to make it as comfortable as possible until she started warming up to the animals. Thank you for letting us come visit and we cannot wait for this farm to get bigger and bigger!

    See all

This place is so cute, and the train drops you off right there, which makes it super convenient! My almost 3-year-old especially loved the petting zoo. You do have to pay admission, and feeding the animals is an additional cost, but we thought it was worth it for the experience. There are also tons of cute shops to walk around and plenty of different food options. We had a great time and will probably be back again!

    I took my kids here today and we had a great time! I'll admit it's not the cheapest activity to do…read morewith kids, but the offerings here are so unique that it feels worthwhile. We spent a total of $45 dollars since I have one preschooler and one toddler (kids under 3 are free!). We got one tray of food to feed the animals, and my older daughter got to do a pony ride too. First we went to the guinea pig area, where you get to sit down and have the attendant place a guinea pig in a little pen on the bench with you. You can feed it and pet it, and if there's no line then you can stay as long as you like! The guinea pigs are so tame and tolerant. It was the perfect thing for my young toddler to experience, since she is the opposite of gentle (we're working on it, ha!). My preschooler loved feeding the guinea pig too. Then we saw the pigs and emu. The pigs were so cute and little! Next to their pen was the goats. The goats were HUNGRY! Even when we ran out of food they kept trying to reach for things. But they were pretty gentle too. There is plenty of space for kids to spread out and pet or feed the goats. Lastly, they have some llamas and alpacas next to the goats. They didn't seem as interested in the food but they didn't mind a few gentle pats on the head. There's lots of shade available, which was a must when you come around noon in July. The whole guinea pig area is fully covered, and about half of the remaining animal areas are in shade too, so we were warm but not overheating. The pony ride was great. Kids 3 and up are allowed to ride. The saddles are equipped with full enclosed harnesses so the littlest kids will remain securely fastened. The pony trainer leads your kid around the path, but parents have to stay back at the entrance. I wish parents could go in with the kids, especially if it's their first time and they're feeling a little nervous- so that's my only suggestion for improvement. After all the animal activities, we went to the other side where there is a playground and other activities, like a train, some diggers and panning for gold. We just played on the playground and didn't pay for any additional activities. There are some benches and picnic tables, some with shade, near the playground so it was perfect for a snack break. All in all, we spent almost 2 hours here and it was the perfect mid-morning activity for my animal-loving kids!

He's been able to participate in all aspects of learning horsemanship, which has not only built his skills but also his confidence. He has become dedicated and is always wanting to do his best when completing tasks. What we didn't expect--but are so grateful for--is how therapeutic this experience has been, especially with his favorite superhero horse, Murphy. Being around the horses has had a calming effect on him, and the ranch has become a safe, peaceful place where he feels comfortable and supported. It has also been a great success in helping with his fine motor delays. The staff are incredibly loving, patient, and understanding. They take the time to connect with each individual and create an environment where everyone can thrive at their own pace. It's clear they genuinely care, and that makes all the difference. We are so thankful to have found Wild Wind Ranch. It's been a meaningful and positive experience for our son, and myself gaining wonderful friendships. We highly recommend it to other families looking for a supportive and therapeutic environment.

To know especially that these are rescued animals and are being taken care of so carefully, giving us the privilege of being able to give them our love as well, it was a heartwarming experience. Plenty of free parking available right infront of the sanctuary. There is a cute little shop attached to the sanctuary, where you can buy their handmade truffle chocolates which are so delicious (coming from someone who isn't a fan of truffle chocolates), fresh farm eggs, honey, and other delicacies. With your zoo "ticket" you get 2 free samples of their chocolates and a hefty bag of feed for the animals. The animals are mostly in their own pens, with some together. There's even a couple of the pigs you'll find out of pens, just hanging out on the property, laying beside the building. You're able to go into the tortoise pen and feed/pet him as well, 2 people at a time inside the pen, as he does get anxious. You're not able to feed all of the animals, but for the most part you can. Each pen has a sign for which animals are ok to feed/pet and which are not. They are very calm and friendly, as long as you are too. They take the feed very gently and don't bite your fingers. On the weekends they offer pizza made fresh for the visitors, and have plenty of covered outdoor seating options to enjoy. They also offer wine tasting, but we did not partake, as we had just left a winery, but I'm sure it is quite enjoyable as well. Definitely a must stop if you're in the area and it's a 5 minute drive from the wineries!

It's probably better in the fall/winter since there's no shade and the sun was hot. Most of the cages didn't have names or descriptions on the animal's story, which would've helped improve the experience. We couldn't see the tortoise since he was in his house and no one was around to let us in the pen. The chocolate truffles are great; we bought some of those.
