Unfortunately, when we arrived we were told that they didn't have enough staff to provide a pony ride. After we begged them, they told us they could do it. However, they didn't end up having any available ponies and gave us a ride on a regular horse (kind of wished they would have at least asked if that was OK). The ride seemed pretty short. The staff was very nice and the location great, but the experience was just OK. I would have been more frustrated if I paid full price.

This is a wonderful little place. Ponies rides, feed chickens and see bunnies. It's an hour or so activity for the little one and a very caring place for young riders. Worth a visit!

Firstly,even though the only time pony rides are available is from 1-11 on Saturdays, they were not prepared with any ponies at all - they were using the ring for lessons and by the time they got a pony ready for my son to ride is was after 12;30 the girl there did not try to hide her irritation with the fact she had to take my son around the ring when she wanted it to be done.She went in TINY circles in the very center of the ring (looked pretty silly as my son is a big sturdy 7 year old) - the only way she could have gone in smaller circles was to spin where she stood. While I understand her frustration with her boss, I did not feel that my son should get cheated out of a ride he was so excited about - for what they offer this VERY overpriced even with the groupon discount! I can go to any zoo,or amusement park and get a much longer ride on an elephant or a camel for FIVE dollars!? On the positive side, I do have to say that the horses and ponies were very well tempered and gentle, and the gal in the herb shop was friendly and knowledgeable

The staff was great with both the kids and the animals! We had a great time and were allowed to see, pet, and even feed the animals! We had a great day!

Had an amazing experience. What a fun place with such nice staff. It's apparent that the animals are loved and well cared for. If your child loves to interact with animals this is the place to go for sure.

Took our 3 and 6 year olds for pony rides. Tons of very sweet horses you can pet, chicken, goats, etc. staff are easy going and great with all ages. Make sure to visit the farm store, they have toys and bunnies to pet. And there is a great playground and little coy pond. Nice easy and inexpensive afternoon.

Great place for kids and families. The farmstand has great local produce for less than Whole Foods or farmer's mkt & sells their own eggs. Happy animals abound!
