The stay here at Infinity Acres was by far the best experience camping we have had. We camped on campus inside the gate. The Pig, goats (babies at this time) ponies and their babies, and the emu would wander around. Everywhere we turned there were animals. Sitting outside the sounds we’re delightful. Every morning I walked out of our camper to see the Camels a short distance away.
For our family with the tour, this was an amazing experience the hosts Laura and Rick were very knowledgeable entertaining and so welcoming and nice. We will add this to our yearly stops.




We absolutely loved Infinity Acres! Laura, her husband, and all of the staff and volunteers made our experience one we'll never forget. Their love for animals was matched only by their love for taking care of other people. You wouldn't normally think "RV'ing at a zoo" would be something you could do in real life, but they make it happen.
If you book here, make sure to enjoy the morning greeting from the approximately 4,712 puppies (maybe that number's a bit high) that will be ready to love on you. Feed the birds and the kangaroos, walk the llamas and ponies, and have a staring contest with the emu and the camels. Oh, and the pigs and goats love attention, so make sure you give it to them! The Animal Encounter is MORE than worth the extra dough.
If we're ever passing through the area again, we'll be back!
This is great place to come camp. It was more than I was expecting. Laura is an incredible host. We loved the animals and where else can you go and feed a Red Kangaroo a baby bottle?

What a pleasure to host you & your daughters! Your enthusiasm is contagious! Looking forwsrd to your return!
Laura and Rick are awesome. We had such a great time. Camp site was beautiful including a gorgeous peacock that roamed around. I can't say enough great things about this trip. It was by far the best camping trip I have had. Being around the animals was so cool. You can tell they really love the animals.





Visits like this are WHY we love HipCamp!! We enjoy hosting families that share our interest & passion for the animals & nature! Hope that we become their favorite "Stay-cation Destination"!!
Infinity Farms was a wonderful experience for my family. The property is well well taken care of and the owners are genuinely amazing people. The camping site was tidy and cozy. The lawn was well maintained which was perfect for the kids. I would recommend this experience to any nature lover. It’s an extra special experience to be able to camp and see the animals!!

Thank you for being wonderful guests!! Please come back & make us your favorite camping get-away destination! (more babies born this past week!)
Camping w/ the animals at the ranch
We had a wonderful experience camping with the animals at Infinity Acre Ranch!!! The hosts were knowledgeable, friendly and helpful!! We took our 6 year old grandson and believe me, the memories made will last us a lifetime!! How often does one get to say they slept amongst camels, zebra, llamas, goats, and a donkey? We were able to bottle feed baby goats, a wallaby, a porcupine, fed fruit to a potbelly pig, loved on puppies, walked a llama and a miniature horse. The bird aviary was amazing. Tortoises, a corn snake, huge rabbits, an emu, an owl, kangaroos, and more all on display for your enjoyment! We had a blast during the day and slept in a tent under the stars, enjoying a campfire, roasting marshmallows and drinking hot chocolate!! Great weekend at the Ranch!!! Thanks Laura and Richard for you hospitality and amazing learning experience!!!

Yippee! Success! Please come back, we always have something new & exciting! A baby mini horse & mini mule were born this past weekend!
We spent a fantastic two nights at Infinity Acres. We set up our tent on the dock, and the kids had a blast fishing when we weren't visiting all the animals or exploring Narnia. Laura and Rick really go out of their way to show you around and make you feel right at home. And where else do you get to walk llamas, bottle feed wallabies, and hold a baby cavy?! My 12yo really wanted to go to the beach instead of going camping, but as we left Infinity Acres she said, "I'm SO GLAD we didn't go to the beach! This place was amazing!!" We can't wait to go back. Thank you, Laura and Rick!

Come join us for the 7th Annual Spring Carnival on 6/4/22! & then come back & camp often!! We love sharing with families like yours!
We had an amazing time camping at Infinity Acres ! The hosts were super friendly and informative during the animal experiences and also about things to do in the surrounding area. We will definitely return.
Camping at the pond was great. My girls had never fished before and they caught their first fish quite easily. Getting to meet a lot of the animals and take a llama and a miniature horse for a short hike was also fabulous. We were a little bummed that we didn't get close to the camels and zebra on this trip, so we may have to come back.
