Riley Crest Farm is located in Amherst, Wisconsin. Close to Hartman Creek St Park, on the north side of Hwy 54. We are diversified farm. We have a small herd of dairy cows, 50 dairy/meat goats, a horse named Willow and mule named Molly, a couple pigs or chickens in the summer, lots of cats. We specialize in goats for meat. Grazing girls roam 30 acres of pasture close to camping. Our goats are very friendly. We are currently not milking goats. We sell eggs and meat from our farm store. We have a spring fed 3 acre pond to paddle around if the water level is high enough. Fish for fun, swimming not recommended. Primitive tent and camper sites available. We welcome horses, bring your own fence. Trails on farm for walking or riding and close to Hartman Creek State Park trails. Dogs are okay, but must be on a leash for the safety of our livestock. Gas generator to run electricity (pay for fuel) is available on request for lights and basic appliances. Wood available on-site. Bring your own water containers, available to fill at the farm. We can accommodate larger groups. You can book the whole site for private setting too. Welcome to the farm!

Riley Crest Farm offers a serene and spacious camping experience with plenty of room to explore and interact with friendly farm animals like goats and cows. The hosts, especially Tom, are praised for their kindness and helpfulness, ensuring campers feel welcomed and well taken care of. While the setting is peaceful and private, some campers have noted the lack of modern amenities, suggesting a more rustic appeal. Reviewers consistently highlight the beauty of the surroundings, making it an ideal spot for those looking to disconnect and enjoy nature.
