    This is so worth the drive and the price is great! The owners are very sweet. My family had a blast feeding all the animals. They have tables so you can pack lunch and eat too.

    We had so much fun visiting this rescue/petting zoo! We fed a lot of animals with that one, red solo cup! There were horses, cows, bulls, bunnies, goats, sheep, llamas, alpacas, ducks, turkeys, chickens, pigs, ostriches, a donkey, an mule, and I’m sure I’m forgetting some! All were friendly. Some of the animals are free roaming and can follow you around the farm. And you can go in some of the pens to see the animals, and you can hold baby goats! What a wonderful experience! Thank you to the owners for taking care of these animals and opening up your farm to us! One guy who was there when we were said he is from Alaska and never even seen a horse before.

    The greatest rescue around❤️Erin is the most caring owner, all of her animals are so happy and loved. She gets them the best care when she can't fix them herself. Go visit them and meet all the animals! Book them for your next birthday party!

    My family and I were super lucky to find this place. It is totally worth stopping at. So many happy animals that would have otherwise not have had a chance to live out their lives are here and thriving. Me, my husband and two kids had a great time feeding and petting all the friendly animals on the ranch. The owners were super awesome people too. Overall, we had a great experience here and I would highly recommend this place, especially if you have kids.
