Buck Brook Alpaca farm is such a charming place to visit. It's been a family tradition for us for many years now as we always spend Christmas at The Villa Roma. For a small fee, you can enjoy a one on one experience with their friendly alpacas, or take a few out on a guided tour along the wintery trails. Perfect to soak up all the fresh crisp air. The farm is free to visit, the one on ones have to be reserved ahead of time and paid for. The farm is home for many animals, goat, pigs and you'll often find a few cats following you round as you explore. There's a gift shop on site, which you must stop in to see. They have lots of hand made items, from hats, gloves, to socks and so much more, most made with the fur of the alpacas. Also, They do have soaps and lotions that are made from the milk of the alpaca's, which is the most buttery soft lotions and luxurious soaps you'll ever use. The visit here is worth while, it's a unique way to spend some time with the animals and in nature. read more

Everyone is so friendly... except this one goat. He wasn't very nice and the peacock comes off as very self absorbed lol. I'm just kidding. I love this place and suggest the self guided tour if it's not busy. Since everyone is so nice, they will come up and explain anything to you anyway and you can go about the farm at your own pace. If you are in the area, definitely stop by and make Some new, fluffy friends. You can pet the animals from the neck down, but none of the animals are really in the mood to be petted so just enjoy them for what they are. Beautiful creatures who want your food! Have fun! read more

If you ever wanted to wander amongst a pack of friendly Alpacas. You can enjoy feeding the Alpacas and Lamas. Staff is helpful and informative. Don't forget to wander down to see the peacocks, ducks and miniature goats. The bunnies are fun and I'm a big fan of lop-eared rabbits. It is a nice way to spend an hour or two with some friendly beasts. read more

Buck Brook Alpacas is a must visit! I've been wanting to visit an Alpaca farm and Buck Brook was a wonderful experience. Me and my fiancé booked the Alpaca walks for $20/person on their website. It was 6 people per time slot (30 minutes) with a guide. The alpacas were all so friendly and show no aggression. Our appointment slot was 30 minutes and we went straight to walking the alpacas once the whole group checked in. We learned so much about these adorable animal and the farm. It's funny how every little pause the alpacas will go straight to eating fresh grass. After the walk, we were provided apples to feed the other alpacas. They have free range chickens roaming around the farm and they have one fluffy bunny. Their store also have a lot of alpacas fur products. I would definitely come back in the near future! read more

Buck Brooks Alpacas was the most fun experience of our Catskills trip, and my girlfriend and I can't stop talking about our memories there. It's a nice, out of the way farm with a gift shop on site and no shortage of Alpacas, Llamas, Bunnies, and Chickens. We were greeted by some great owners and operators of the place, and since we were a bit early, we chatted with one of the handlers, who gave us a nice private touring, let us feed the animals, and hangout with them before our walk. The alpacas are friendly and fun, plenty of pictures and memories to be had, we still miss Plush and Velvetina to this day. We got a great deal of gifts from the shop for memories, and hope that they succeed with future business! We love Buck Brooks Alpacas!! read more

We visited the farm during our weekend getaway in the Catskills and were wowed by the above and beyond fun we had here. Our tour guide (I never caught his name) was phenomenal - still in high school, is raising his own alpaca and farm animals at home and was looking to go to college for agriculture. We did the farm tour which includes plenty of alpaca pets and animal holding, lots of fun photo ops and learning incredible things about the animals and the people who love them at this place. We also bought a few items at the gift shop, I just the Thor Alpaca, a little alpaca stuffed animal, that's dressed like Thor. Right up my alley. A must-visit in the area. We hope to return soon and do the alpaca walks. You can also rent the alpacas for your special events too! Also - do not turn into the neighbors driveway across the street, she got so mad at us lol read more

A great 30 min tour that gives you a nice lesson on alpacas. Plenty of opportunities to feed and interact with them; feeding apples, brushing their hair, petting. There are also bunnies and barn cats and a friendly potbellied pig. Nice activity if you are in the area. read more

Buck Brook Alpacas - Cute alpacas in the barn - Attraction Farms Near Me - Roscoe, New York

Great fun place to visit. Doesn't matter what age you are, this alpaca farm is fun and a great time for everyone. I did the alpaca walk ($28/person) and it was 100% worth it. I walked Jules and Cartier Tray, 2 very friendly and personable alpacas. The staff are pretty friendly and the farm is very clean. The gift shop is very nice, but be prepared to spend a good amount of money in there. If I was ever in area again.. I would definitely come back here to visit! read more

This place was amazing! The Alpacas were so much fun to see and feed. In addition to the alpacas there are goats, ducks and rabbits. There is also a nice gift shop stocked with alpaca themed products. The farm was not that big and it took us about one hour and a half to see. My teenage kids, 6 years old twins and 5 year old nephew were so happy to be there. I have not seen my kids have so much fun in a place that this. read more

There's a blue-eyed alpaca in upstate New York that I'm just smitten over! His name is Blue (for his rare blue eyes of course) and he lives with his furry friends at Buck Brook Alpacas Farm in Roscoe, NY, about two hours drive from the city (if you live in the UWS). I've been visiting quite a few alpaca farms over the last two years. These fluffy floofy camel-cousin animals have captured my heart. All of the farms I've visited have been amazing experiences, but Buck Brook Alpacas is the only one that had baby alpacas (called cria) that you could see close up, like right up to the farm fence. We drove upstate early one weekend to introduce friends to the wonderful relaxation of alpaca farms. After two hours driving of course we had to pee as soon as we got out of the car. Note: Every alpaca farm only has outhouses or porta potties. It's not civilization as we cityfolk know it. Bring Kleenex and anti-bacterial hand wipes. Liquid soap and bottled water to wash your hands too. But after taking care of business, the day at the farm was fabulous. Loved the gift shop! The farm sells t-shirts and sweatshirts with the cutest alpaca illustration. This farm also has an Airbnb that you can book and sleep a family of 6(?) upstairs in the barn. Got a chuckle reading the Airbnb reviews that talk about hearing the alpaca run around the barn at night. That's my next must-do experience here at Buck Brook Alpacas so I see Blue the blue-eyed alpaca again and have him nibble apple pieces out of my hand! read more

Anything animal related and I'm there. Alpacas are cool but granted they are kinda boring. I think this place does special tours but otherwise it's open for you to roam a bit which is what we did. There's a shop w items made from real alpaca yarn/fur/hair idk what you call it. Heads up tho, nothing in there is cheap. We met a black cat named Sandy I think and that was my fav part. My sister almost took it back with us but we decided against it. Cool spot to check out tho and kill 20 mins read more

I can't say enough about this place. My kids and I had such a wonderful visit here. We met so many alpacas, llamas, chickens, ducks, cats and even a peacock. It's well worth the trek and the team is wonderful. There is a fantastic gift shop with handmade alpaca wool items. There is a therapeutic aspect to feeding, petting and holding fluffy animals read more

My son had such a lovely time on the tour. The tour guide went well out of her way to make him happy. She made sure to introduce him to the friendliest alpaca babies, since the babies are his favorite. The gift shop is full of cute items and he got a Superman Alpaca ("Superpaca", he calls him lol). This is a great place for young children. read more

We had a great time with Mark during our family's visit to Buck Brook Alpacas! We took a private tour and he gave us apples to feed to the alpacas, explained the processing of the alpaca fleece, and let us go at our own pace through the farm (we had 3 difficult to wrangle toddlers!). He was very knowledgable about the alpacas and even knew each by name! They had a few other animals (some bunnies, llamas, chickens, roosters, a pig, ducks, a tortoise), in addition to many beautiful and friendly alpacas. The people there were so incredibly kind and it was a fun and relaxing experience for all (from the grandparents to toddlers)! read more

Fun, quick stop for animal and/or fiber lovers if you're in the area- It's a beautiful property with lots of happy, healthy alpacas, and there are friendly staff members on site to provide information. (For anyone who is not familiar, Alpacas are pretty much a cross between a llama and a Muppet.) You can wander around freely (always safely separated from the animals by a fence) and pet and feed them. Be sure to bring quarters for the feed dispensers, because the alpacas are about 1000% times more interested in food than petting. The shop sells alpaca yarn, sweaters, accessories, etc., some sourced from the local alpacas, some not. read more

We visited Buck Brook Alpacas yesterday and had a private tour with Terry. I cannot begin to say what a pleasure the visit was, it is such a nice location and SO interesting to learn all about Alpacas. They have about 140 alpacas, one was the National Champion in 2022! There is a lot to see and what a wonderful event for young children! I highly recommend a visit if you are anywhere near the area. The store is also very nice (and this is a guy saying this!), with so many items made with the fur of their own animals. Terry was also very informative, she is part of the family that owns the operation and did a very nice job telling us about all the animals and their personalities What a pleasant visit and very interesting, cannot say enough about our visit. A true gem in rural NY state, a must-see! Don from St Louis, MO. read more

First time at an Alpaca Farm. It was a fun 30-40 minute tour of the Alpaca Farm. They give you apples to feed to them. Could give a little bit more than a tiny Dixie cup for the whole tour but still, a nice touch. They also have bunnies, chicken and a Grandpa Alpaca. Cute gift shop with tons of different items and great gifts. A little pricey but I guess it's to be expected. Overall, nice activity to do while driving through or stopping in the Roscoe area. read more

Went here on a total whim when the electricity was out at our resort and so glad we did! Beautiful area with well-kept animals and a reasonably priced store with local made goods and alpaca products. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely worth the pit stop! read more

So fun for my toddler. You feed the alpacas and walk around their farm w your guide. I went on a quiet Friday so my group was 4 people which was a perfect size.... 8 people is their max but that could feel crowded at times. The store is super cute... a bit overpriced but good quality stuff and supporting small businesses. You get 10% off after going on a tour. read more

Amazing experience! My boyfriend and I went to Buck Brook Alpacas in the beginning of August. We live far away and booked online, but we had a mix up with our booking (our fault). We arrived and the employees were so kind and made a time slot for us to go on a tour of the farm. All of the workers were knowledgeable and passionate about the animals. All of the Alpacas were well taken care of and happy. The area was clean, and well maintained. We also thought the shop was very nice, we purchased the knitted alpacas in a crate! (Such a creative idea) and we were happy to find out they were locally made! We learned a lot and will ABSOLUTELY visit again! read more
