About
This peaceful 20-acre property offers a unique retreat for animal lovers seeking a serene getaway. Guests park in spacious, private areas with direct views of rescued farm animals—from cows grazing in their pastures to pigs roaming freely—creating an immersive pastoral experience. The grounds are level and well-maintained, with available hookups and amenities to ensure a comfortable stay.
The sanctuary is home to a diverse collection of rescued animals, including horses, highland cattle, turtles, fish, and more, all cared for with genuine dedication. Visitors consistently praise the animals' health and happiness, noting their friendly and engaging nature. Special cow cuddle experiences are available for those seeking closer interaction with these gentle creatures, and a gift shop on the property offers thoughtful souvenirs.
The welcoming and knowledgeable staff go above and beyond to ensure guests feel at home, offering personal tours of the property and sharing the animals' stories. Families particularly appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, children's play area with sandbox, and the opportunity for kids to learn about animal care in a safe, nurturing environment. Many guests describe their stay as deeply meaningful and restorative.
This location serves as a nonprofit sanctuary dedicated to animal rescue and care, making every visit a contribution to an important cause. Whether enjoying quiet mornings watching animals from your camper, taking leisurely walks through the grounds, or simply resting in the countryside's tranquil setting, guests consistently describe their experience as a rejuvenating escape from everyday life.
