We all hear about in the news of places that abuse animals for profit or take advantage of folks, Hidden Brook Ranch is the absolute complete opposite of that. From the moment you arrive, you feel like you're being invited into a small intimate gathering of close family members (that you've been adopted into!)! I'm pretty sure they these Alpacas (and some Llamas and chickens) are more spoiled than most families and children. We came here for a hot chocolate, cookie decorating, and feeding Alpacas event. Christine, Gary, and rest of the Hidden Brook Ranch crew talk you threw the right way to care for the Alpacas and give you a little bit of history and tips on the personality on each of them. I highly recommend whether looking for things to do with friends or your family, making a trip and some time to go out and visit this absolutely delightful farm with such incredibly hospitable and caring people.

We went to an annual pumpkin painting event at Hidden Brook. It was $20 to paint a pumpkin and feed alpacas and llamas. The owners were very friendly and the animals even friendlier. If you can make the drive out west, come pet these gentle creatures!

Bambi and new baby

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit here! We got to meet all the "girls" first along with a couple of "toddler boys". There was a 5 day old baby that was so cute! The owner told us all their names and relationships and how they acquired each one. We learned all about alpacas and llamas and got to feed them. Then we went to see the "boys". A smaller but still delightful group. Then we all got to walk one of the animals (we had sweet Shayna) on a harness. After this we learned what they do with the fibers and how wool is made and different quantities.

Just a few quick questions please. My granddaughter is turning 10 in June, and very athletic. Our…read morefamily come from a horse background and my granddaughter is showing interest. Is there height, age,weight requirements? This has been a dream for as long as I can remember. I used to ride Shawnee trails at least once a month back in the day. We all love and have a respect for this giant and I'd love to share this love with my granddaughter now. If you could answer my questions along with a base price and types of trail and length,I'd be very grateful. Thank you, Kay Riley kariley63.kr@gmail.com

THIS PLACE IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE AVOIDED AT ALL COST IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR FAMILY'S HEALTH…read moreAND WELL-BEING. Please read my entire review to see how this place really is. Horseback riding at this stable was the biggest nightmare I have ever experienced The beginning of the ride didn't show how bad the events would turn. For the first 40 minutes of the ride we had a great time until the guide decided to rope off my horse. Her dangerous behavior led to my left knee injury and me almost falling off the horse I rode, who was a 27 year old horse and very well behaved. The horse was very easy to ride and caused no problems to me as a rider. I indicated in a form that that I am an advanced equestrian and I've been around horses my whole life and I'm very comfortable riding horses both in the saddle and all around horses/stables. I got injured in a ride trail because of the guide's lack of imagination. She crushed my knee with her horse's weight twice as she approached me without getting off her horse and her horse walked against my left knee. She did that twice in opposite directions until I screamed from pain and that's when she got off her horse to rope my horse off properly. She took control of my horse with a rope and took the snaffle bit out of horses mouth as exemplified by the attached photo. I told the trail guide that I don't feel safe staying so close to her horse as horses kick and you need to keep your horse at least 4 feet behind another horse. This was also told me before our trail ride at the stable, the prison who gave us our helmets after we paid for the experience told us to stay 4 yards away from each other horses. In her response she told me that she knows better and disregarded my complaint about me feeling not safe after my left knee got crushed by the horse she was riding. The guide has also injured the horse I rode because she run him into a tree cutting severely skin on his head. She led my horse way too close to her horse and there was a tree. Her horse went right and because I couldn't control my horse with no snaffle bit she led my horse left and he hit his head against the tree as he was stuck on that rope that the guide held in her hand. I had no control of the horse I was riding as per attached photo with the snaffle bit taken out by the guide. Her horse went right next to a tree and mine went left. Then my horse jumped and kicked as he was hurt by the guide and I almost fell. If it wasn't for my riding experience I would have been right on the ground trampled by the injured horse. At that point I couldn't believe what kind of irresponsible guide this person was, so I I started recording with my cell phone everything that happened next to avoid another injury after my knee got crushed and the horse I rode got injured by the guide. As we arrived at the stable at the end of the hour trail, I politely reported the incident and my injury to the manager when we came back to the stable and the manager called the police calling me and my wife trespassers (sic!), after we paid $240 for 2 hours of trail horseback riding as we scheduled another hour at 4pm as well. The manager tried to scare us to leave. She called the police to report "trespassing" even though we were guests at the Pocono Manor and paid for resort stay and the horse rides in advance, The manager and the guide completely ruined our experience by acting rude, unprofessionally and with no empathy. She did not apologize or even offer ice for my injured knee. She was trying to intimidate us to leave. When the police arrived the manager lied to them and said that I ran her horse into the tree and in the attached photo you can clearly see that the snaffle bit is out so I had no control of the horse after it got roped off. The guide had full control of the horse I rode. This is the rudest and the least professional horseback riding facility I have seen. I grew up around horses and I've seen many stables around the world as I travel a lot and ride horses often. I've never experienced such terrible service and lack of empathy. With an injured knee and not even an apology or offering me some ice the manager decided to kick us out by calling the police and telling the cops that we are trespassing after I paid $240 for 2 hours of riding on easy trail trail and hundreds of dollars for our stay at Pocono Manor that was supposed to be a safe and pleasant experience for my wife and me. The horseback riding facility at the Pocono Manor Ranch, is a place that's dangerous for children and adults and should be avoided at all cost. Unqualified personnel endangers safety and health of the resort visitors as well as the animal welfare of the horses. I will spare you the photos of horse injuries as they are disturbing and traumatizing. Under no circumstances go there if you care about your family health or well-being. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST.

I am guilty of going to 99 ranch to just get food... it's a 2 in 1 if you're going to get…read moregroceries! The shumai and dumplings are a little small, and a bit dry. Not the best in terms of quality but I still like to get them. I am a big fan of the char sui bao- they are a decent size and I feel like they are filled and delicious. Warn them a bit and they are the best snack! For the biggest thing I've bought there- I love the duck! They have it hanging and will cut it in front of you. It definitely saves me the hassle of cooking it or finding a restaurant that sells it. It's juicy and savory.

As I've continued my visits to other Asian markets, all around Central and Northern New Jersey…read morelocations, this one still is, in my humble opinion, a true Asian supermarket powerhouse. The sheer range and abundance of products is staggering. Everything from fresh produce to pantry essentials, frozen goods to specialty items, you'll find everything you need for an Asian cooking and more. They carry a wide variety of fresh produce, and all the Asian household staples you could think of and want. While the prices are not the cheapest, they are fair for the area. The shelves are stocked with a diverse selection of authentic ingredients from various Asian countries so whatever cuisine you're craving, you'll be most likely able to find it here. There is a humongous snack section, a well stocked liquor area, and like all of their locations, a food court and prepared meats section. The 99 Ranch Market is tidy and organized and every bit of space is thoughtfully used. You'll find pallets of discounted noodles, canned goods, and snacks all neatly displayed without feeling chaotic at the front of the store as you enter. The employees are helpful. While the checkout lines can be long on weekends, they move surprisingly fast. It only shows me that the cashiers are very efficient what they do. It's located at the Home Depot strip mall. Parking is ample on weekdays, but it can get a little crazy on the weekends.
