    What a wonderful experience! Joe has a great ranch & the animals are so friendly and sweet!!! Day made!!! It's an intimate experience that I wish could last all day!! We learned a lot about alpacas!! I highly recommend this for animal lovers!!

    I went with a couple of friends and it was so fun! We met outside Red Rocks and followed him to the farm. He was driving a little fast, so we were worried we didn't turn in the right spot when we couldn't see him, but we made it! It was such a unique experience to interact with the alpacas and the goats, and we got some great photo opportunities!

    I enjoyed the experience. We met up with our group at the red rock park which is only a few minutes away. We spent time with the alpaca and the goats. Fed them. Combed them and learned so much about them. Then we went into the shop to buy a few alpaca things.

    Overall it was a great experience! The owner was very friendly and knowledgeable. My two young kids and I had a blast with the alpacas and goats! Highly recommend!

    We had the BEST time! The owner was so welcoming and met us at the red rock amphitheater parking lot. We drove to the venue and had so much fun petting, feeding and interacting with the animals. Great activity to do for family or with friends! Thank you for having us!

    Had the best experience at Joe's ranch. His alpacas and goats were so sweet and Joe was very knowledgeable. My friends and I came to Colorado for the weekend and this definitely made our trip!! Highly recommend!

    Such a fun time and Joe was great!highly recommend whether you're a child or an adult! Red rocks is right there so you can visit that before/after.

    This was a really special experience for us and our granddaughter. Joe has a remarkable venue and took the time to share his journey and how he got to this amazing place. The Alpacas and the goats are very docile and friendly and love being fed by visitors! I would recommend booking directly with Smooth Alpaca Experience and not going through Virgin. They were hard to reach and using the gift voucher was challenging.

    Such a unique experience! Joe is very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions you have. The alpacas and goats were adorable and you get to feed, pet, and brush them. Definitely recommend!

    Expensive hay and grain feeding experience in a small corral. Thought there would be a lot more to the experience. Left early.

    Ask the Community - Smooth Alpaca Experience

    Is it stroller friendly?

    Yes It just dirt and a little grass.

    I don't see a price for children, can kids come too?

    All Ages are Welcomed. Free entry for children 3 and under.

    What time is feeding time?

    The Alpacas are fed their normal meals for the day but by the guests which is amazing!

    Is this open on sundays and is it easy to get to from red rocks?

    Very easy to get to from Red Rocks. They meet you there and you follow them to the ranch about a mile away. Their website says they are open Sundays.

    Best pumpkin patch in Colorado! We had the best time and will be back! I recommend buying tickets…read morein advance online because you get in faster! 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!

    By far, one of the funner pumpkin patches that I've taken my kids to over the course of their 13…read moreyears. 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. Pig races were a blast. Food was really decent stadium food quality overall great experience highly recommend if Ryan had kids I think he would bring him here.

    I read an article about Capella Ranch's api-therapy huts and the hubs and I thought it would be…read moreawesome to try them. 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!!

    We visited Capella Ranch October 2024 for my daughters birthday. I think we may have been the last…read morebooking for the year. We got a tour of the flower farm, picked flowers, we took a tour of the bee hut and bough some honey. The owner made this birthday gift so special. Truly enchanting. This was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had. Highly recommend this for any occasion.
