We loved visiting the Alpacas here, especially Lola! All of the alpacas were so sweet and friendly. The owner, Sandy, was so kind and welcoming, sharing great details about the start of her farm and the care of the alpacas. We highly recommend a visit here!

Went here expecting a quick 5-minute session with the alpacas and a picture, but ending up spending a long time with the alpacas and having good conversation with Sandy. The alpacas were friendly and I even got an alpaca kiss!
