Came for the open house event in August. It was sooo fun! I had never heard of this farm before but…read moresaw it pop up on Facebook. When we arrived, I definitely was not expecting the alpacas to be free roaming!! They were so cute and obviously well taken care of and loved. I bought some alpaca food for $5 and it was a big portion that kept me and my family busy. All of the staff was friendly and very accommodating. It was a hot day without shade but we didn't have much of a problem.

There is also an option to "glamp" in the tent provided by the farm. The alpacas and a few other animals are free roaming and will greet you at your campsite or the petting zoo area. If you have food they will definitely come! It was so much fun interacting with the animals on this farm. We camped for the night and in the morning we were greeted at our van by the old donkey on the farm. The alpacas are the main star though, so friendly and adorable! We brought our dogs with us and the alpacas were very curious to meet them. They followed us around the farm for quite a while. I literately fell in love with this place and I can't wait to go back!!! There were even twins goats born the hour before we arrived. What's not to love about this amazing place. I feel lucky to have experienced it!

You get to see the animals up close and near each exhibit, there are signs with the type of animal, their name, and why they are at the ark. We all enjoyed seeing each animal. The bear was amusing, she was in the pool. One of the volunteers told us when she was a cub, her ears got frostbite and fell off . The raccoon, Maple was very cute. The mountain lion was very intimidating looking. We also saw a bobcat, jaguar, parts of a tiger, a falcon, owls, a wolf, coyote, etc They have a nice gift shop with stuffed animals of a lot of the animals. The restroom was conveniently located, the faucet was a bit tricky-you had to hold it down the whole time while trying to rinse your hands with not a lot of water pressure. All in all definitely a place to visit in the cooler months as there isn't a lot of shade but there are benches everywhere to rest. We loved it!

The Sanctuary was so clean and the animals looked healthy and well taken care of. We watched enrichment feeding with several of them and each enclosure was beautiful. The setting is gorgeous and it's an easy walk to each enclosure. We loved learning the names of each resident animal, and their back story and history as to how they came to live there. They have an amazing array of animals, including bears, wolves, raccoons, a coyote, a porcupine, a jaguar, a cheetah, a bobcat, a mountain lion, foxes, owls, and other birds of prey. We took our time walking around and enjoying the beautiful location, and it took us about two hours to see everything. Laura, on of the staff members was super friendly, and Jasmine gave an amazing presentation on their Porcupine. She is extremely knowledgeable and sweet. We hadn't been there in over twenty years, and we were amazed by the changes. The restrooms were super clean, there were plenty of garbage/recycle cans available, and the paths were clearly marked. We didn't try the food truck, but it smelled delicious, and they had an ice cream truck, and a bar with a great variety of drinks available, many of which were from local breweries/distilleries. The gift shop was great! So many cool things to look at and purchase and they carry soft drinks/water and ice cream. I highly recommend a visit! They are doing incredible, life-saving work for animals who have no other option. This event was adults only, but their normal operations are family friendly and they have a ton of special events listed on their website!

Our guide, Kiera, was fantastic -- knowledgeable, relaxed, encouraging, and clearly wonderful with both people and horses. The scenery was breathtaking, and the ride felt like a real adventure rather than just following a trail in a line. We crossed a beautiful river twice, rode through gorgeous mountain terrain, and truly got to experience the landscape. My horse, Buckwheat, was such a character and made the ride even more fun. We especially appreciated that the ride felt personal, peaceful, and authentic. You can tell the horses are well cared for and that the guides genuinely love what they do. Highly, highly recommend this experience if you're looking for a scenic and memorable ride in the Truckee/Tahoe area!

I enthusiastically recommend Piping Rock Equestrian for those seeking a relaxing and beautiful trail ride among nature. We hope to be back again!

The animal area has been cleaned up and there are tons of working sinks to wash hands. You can purchase animal food, pony rides, and bottles to feed the animals. There is also a play gym, train rides, hay rides, trike races, zip lines, slides, dirt to shovel, and more. My three year old easily spent over three hours here and loved every minute. We will definitely be back in the fall!! My only suggestion to andelin farms is to add a fan in the baby nursing hut. It was very stuffy in there.

We haven't visited since last year's Baby Animals event and boy have they changed things up! They…read moreset up a long ticket booth to the right of the entrance with nice winding queue line, divided into Prepaid and Purchasing lines. I was surprised to see how they pushed the entrance area past the barn, but totally makes sense for those who may want to just stop by to shop and not want to enjoy the festivities. The staff were all friendly and kept up with keeping the animal pens clear of poop, especially for the petting ones. They had signage to designate which ones you could feed the animal food to and which ones you couldn't enter due to the animals resting. I really liked how they sectioned off all the animals off to the left side with its own entrance and exit and lots of sanitizing and handwashing stations nearby. They had some new things at the farm too. I saw signage advertising Cuddling with Calves for $20 (kids 8+). They also had some additional calves to see and pet along the way. So adorable! Outside of the animal area, they had a new section, Peacock Pedalers, that allowed kids and adults to ride tricycles around. They also had refreshment stations within the farm for drinks, kettlecorn, and other snacks, which made it convenient. What surprised me was that the features that were typically busy on our past visits, like the mini zip lines and the barrel ride, were very little to no waits. They offered lots of seating for taking a break and grabbing some food from the three food trucks they offered. The pulled pork nachos were yummy! It was a great deal to spend the day at the farm for $20 tickets. Yes, they offered lots of additions like the animal feed, train tickets, and gem sluicing for a price but not really necessary to have a great experience. The baby chicks and goats were the highlight of our visit. My daughter wants to go back next weekend!

What a great experience! I went on the Fairy Trail with my son and his wife and their almost…read more6-year-old daughter. She loved every minute. Wandering down the trails to find all the little vignettes was fun and then we enjoyed meeting all the animals and feeding them treats. Hard to pick any favorites amongst the animals but the little goats were a big hit since they were so easy to interact with. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and we appreciated the popcorn, cider and water snacks. I'm not sure if we actually found all the items on the "treasure hunt" but they kindly allowed my granddaughter to pick a "prize" anyway and she loved the purple magic wand she chose. One difficulty is that there is no restroom, not even a portapotty. Given the location that is not good as it is quite a distance to get to any place with a public restroom. Another is that there is no way to contact the venue by phone if you have questions. I almost didn't go because I was a bit late and the confirmation I received said that we had to be there at our specific time with no ability to change it. Fortunately my son was able to email them and ask if I could catch up to them on the trail if I arrived a bit late and they responded quickly enough that I didn't have to turn around and go back home (my drive there was two hours).

This adventure begins under a gazebo in the desert mountains thirty minutes outside of Reno. It's a beautiful setting. Kathleen the wildlife expert and Falconer is absolutely brilliant. She's easy going, articulate, and totally in tune with the animals. You get a feeling of awe in the close proximity to the birds. It's a magical experience to see and learn about them up close. Kathleen has dedicated her life to this endeavor and it shows. The birds are beautifully cared for. I got to wear the leather glove and have a Harris's Hawk swoop down on my wrist, take a treat and fly away. I got to see a giant Eurasian Owl and have her sit on my gloved wrist. We had the unexpected pleasure of seeing an 8 week old baby Owl and pet his downy feathers. This was a soul fulfilling day and I can't stop thinking about it. Experiences like this are a gift to be cherished. I cannot recommend this enough! Thank you, Kathleen!! The best day ever!

You can always tell when someone is passionate about what they do in the way they spew out information.

Having the opportunity to have such beautiful species of birds up close and personal is unmatched. I would most definitely come back to relive these memories.

The fish all look healthy, and the tanks they are housed in are clean and appear well-maintained. They have quite a bit of variety in terms of fish species. The only downside is that most fish for sale are juveniles, so the selection is limited if you want larger, full-grown fish. In the back area, they have snakes, frogs, spiders, etc. In addition, they have all the necessary supplies and accessories you should need. The store is quite large, occupying two bays of a strip mall off of Moana. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this business.
