Animal Tracks is an animal sanctuary for exotic animals and this wildlife rehabilitation center is…read morelocated in Agua Dulce (between Santa Clarita and Palmdale). Each Sunday the center offers guided tours (no walk-ins allowed) and visitors will need to book a session on their website. [Sunday Public Group Experiences & Prices]: It is a 75-minute guided tour that focuses more on education over physical contact. For adult (ages 13+), the price is $49.95 per person + online booking fees. I actually purchased the experience via Groupon with an additional 20% off. [Preparation]: Arrive 10 - 15 minutes early and wear comfortable closed-toe shoes, sunscreen, and layers for outdoor conditions. All visitors must complete an online waiver prior to attending. Water, Gatorade, coffee and snacks are available for purchase in the barn. [Parking]: Park as directed upon arrival and I was able to park within the premise of the barn. [Experience]: The tour started at 2 PM and ended at 3:30 PM. Our main guide Stacy was humorous. Each segment of the tour had its own specialist who shared knowledge on specific animals. During the tour, our party was able to see the following animals: horses/donkeys (with an opportunity to feed them lettuce leaves at no extra charge), hybrid wolves (with an opportunity to feed them by throwing food via a small window opening), cockatoos, armadillo, skunk, opossums, pigs, scorpions, porcupines, hedgehog, kangaroos, monkeys (including Tara who was featured in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl), sugar gliders (will need to ask the staff to see them), etc. Some animal got some clever pun names like Quillie Eilish (one of porcupines). [Barn]: There is a small gift shop at the barn and visits will also see cats running around the shop. [Conclusion]: The tour was extremely educational and it was quite an eye-opening experience to see these rescued animals. This is a much better visit than The Gentle Barn and the tour from Animal Tracks is the real deal. Highly recommended for any animal lovers. P.S. - Donation box is located within the barn. P.P.S. - Visitors can also take a centerpiece plant on the tables back home for free at the end.

Every single person at this sanctuary does an incredible job of sharing the animals stories,…read moreteaching us how to respect them properly, and most of all loves them unconditionally. You can tell each staff member has devoted themselves to the care of these animals and it makes my heart so happy. This sanctuary is literally what dreams are made of.

We know Miss Jeri from another preschool and when the pandemic hit, she pivoted and created this all-inclusive mobile learning classroom. Miss Jeri is great!

The bus is parked near one of the parent's homes, so your child can be near and you don't have to worry about traffic with child drop off/pick up. The pricing is VERY reasonable. It's comparable to the previous preschool we were at, but now my son gets even more focused attention since it's with a smaller group of kids (up to 5 kids in one session). It's almost like private tutoring without the high price tag. In addition to the ridiculously cute exterior of the bus (my son gets so excited to spot around town "that's my school bus!") the inside was completely redone to not only be a fully functional classroom, but it's also decked out with high quality and durable play sets and learning tools. Ms. Jeri has an extensive background in childcare and had previously worked at Montessori, so her teaching style is a mix of fun, creative, yet effective techniques that my son really enjoys. Because it's a more intimate classroom setting, Ms. Jeri is also able to send photos and updates of how they're doing, so it's easy for me to see the progress. I'll admit, I was a bit hesitant to enroll my son in this unconventional form of preschool, but I'm so glad that I did because it's been amazing to continue my son's education without the stress and anxiety of a large school setting during the pandemic. Ms. Jeri is extremely kind and will definitely take the time to help you decide whether or not The Classroom To Go can work for you and your children as well. You can find her on Instagram @TheClassroomToGo if you have any questions. Overall, I highly recommend The Classroom To Go if you live in the SCV area!

BEST WEDDING VENUE EVER!…read more My husband and I dreamed of a wedding where everyone could stay together onsite, immersed in nature, with no worries about driving after a night of fun, and Camp Osito Rancho made that dream a reality. Our families stayed in the health center, lodge, and electrified cabins, while our friends embraced the adventure of summer cabins and tents. The venue offers so many stunning spaces, from the spacious dining hall for meals to the stage/amphitheater with fire pits--perfect for s'mores and late-night stories. We exchanged vows at the top of a hill near the outdoor pavilion, with a gorgeous backdrop of pine trees and a view of Big Bear Lake in the distance. We were able to offer our guests camp activities like archery and a pool day, as well as had room to setup other activities like craft tables and lawn games. The biggest perk was the complete freedom to choose our own vendors, allowing us to create a truly personalized experience (huge shoutout to Scratch Kitchen for catering--our guests still rave about the food). We spent a year making signs, collecting décor, buying solar lights, and crafting to transform this Girl Scout camp into a full-blown wedding festival. If you're up for planning the details, this venue is the ultimate blank canvas. Last but not least, the Camp Osito Rancho team is absolutely amazing. A huge thanks to Angel for her help throughout the year, Ryan for his help throughout the weekend, and to Gerardo for the tour that sold us from the start. For a wedding that feels like an unforgettable getaway, this place is pure magic
