1 night at Windy Goat Acres

Highly recommend!! As Tolkien fans this was super fun! A perfect one-night stopover on a Thanksgiving trip. The Hobbit House was very cute and cozy. We enjoyed walking the trails, sitting by a campfire viewing stars, and just relaxing. There is a teeny kitchen set up for simple food prep. We cooked soup for dinner in the microwave and brought our own coffee, tea, and muffins for breakfast. *Be sure to note the bathroom situation - currently about 100 yards to a (very clean!) porta-potty and a couple min walk down hill to a fully plumbed bathroom. The shower is outdoors - walls but no roof. So, like a campground. So if that kind of set-up does not work for your own situation then this may not be a great fit. (We knew this going in and was fine for us.) We would definitely consider staying again and enjoying one of the yurts or cabins if passing this way again.

Queen Armadillo yurt was magical! We arrived when it was dark and had a little trouble finding our spot since it was back a little farther but the owner helped us with directions. Once we walked into the yurt and turned on the lights, we were all so impressed with how warm and cozy it felt. We enjoyed the firepit and the super cool hammock net that is installed just outside the yurt. In the morning, we walked around the trails a little bit and then the waffle bar was delivered which was really fun. Feeding the animals was our favorite part. The ducks went absolutely bonkers for the grapes and made us light so hard. The horses and alpacas were total sweeties. One of our most favorite family getaways ever and we will come back to stay again this spring!

We absolutely loved our time at Windy Goat Acres! Every corner of the property was enchanting and creative. Jim and Jessie were amazing hosts. Incredibly communicative and were eager to share their passion for their animals. We got to spend a lot of time interacting with the animals (goats, pigs, llama, emu, rabbits, horses, barn cats, peacocks, ducks and chickens) and they were all super friendly. Jim was an awesome bartender at the garden pop up bar. The tiny house was well equipped with all the essentials and nearby an indoor restroom. We can’t wait for our next stay!

Staying at the Hobbit House on the Hill was one of our favorite things we’ve ever done in our lives. And walking around and experiencing all the artwork and how well they made an amazing experience out of their land was simply amazing. Highly recommend. Multiple times.

Weekend Trip to Windy Goat Acres

Windy Goat Acres is such a cute and quaint farm. My friend and I stayed in the tiny cabin, although there are larger cabins and yurts available to rent. The tiny cabin was perfect for a quick weekend getaway for the two of us and my small dog. There is quite the variety of animals on the farm that made for a unique trip as well. The hosts were very nice, very responsive to texts, and gave us privacy.

Fun things to see and do everywhere. Little hidden gems around the property turned a simple walk into an adventure. Every square foot of this property has been given thought and purpose. The add-ons are clever and fun, don't miss out on this place for a weekend getaway.

The entire trip was wonderful! The Queen Armadillo's Yurt was well supplied and very comfortable. We were thrilled to find so many hidden treasures of various artwork and activities as we explored the area. The goat social was a favorite as well as feeding the animals. Finding the horses freely wandering the farm throughout the day was so peaceful. This will definitely be an annual trip for us.

We loved Lady Morphia’s! Cozy and comfortable space. Loved the fireplace& fire pit on a cool fall evening. Would’ve loved to stay longer to go through the great book collection in the loft bedroom. Morning coffee on the front porch with the Bohemia Alps views was a lovely way to start the day.

Everything was wonderful! We loved our cabin and the beautiful surroundings. I came with my two city children, 11 and 13, and they had the most wonderful time with all the animals. We opted for the extra rabbit and llama experiences, a cup of animal feed, and piggy popsicles. Jess was a wonderful host and responsive through text to any questions we had and for scheduling our experiences. Thank you for giving my city kids a magical farm experience!
