Unwelcoming
50 ft travel trailer · With kids
Overall, we had a good experience mainly because of our own enthusiasm and the wonderful animals, though not due to the host.
Upon arrival, we felt quite uncomfortable and unwelcome. We were informed that camping was not allowed, only RVs, and aside from being shown where the bathroom was located, no further information was provided. We ended up exploring the farm and visiting the animals on our own, which felt odd.
The experience was different from what was shown in the pictures. The opportunity to hold or feed the animals, as depicted online, was not available to us. It seems that only guests who pay for an additional “experience” get the host’s attention, while others are either ignored or asked to leave certain areas.
The farm has great potential to be a more attractive destination. It could be a sanctuary where all the animals have enough space to live comfortably (for example, the bunnies seemed cramped in their cage, as were several other animals), and it could offer additional amenities like a small café. There are many opportunities for the farm to become a truly wonderful place to visit, especially if the host were a bit more welcoming and friendly.
Everyone has their off days, which we understand. However, if you’re running a farm and advertising an amazing experience, it’s important to ensure all visitors feel welcome and receive a consistent level of kindness and care—especially the children who come to share love with the animals.
