    What a blast!! The Pumpkin Station at Del Mar provided hours of frivolity. Firstly, no parking fee. Secondly, no entrance fee. All rides/attractions are $5 per (1 ticket) but I highly recommend purchasing a pack. We went with the 12 ticket pack for $42. My daughter was in stitches going from slides, to bounce houses, to rides, to the petting zoo (goats only) and then back to the slides. We brought our own water and snacks which was the best decision because the available food did not look too good. On our way out we purchased 3 pumpkins to decorate our home. With several locations we will definitely venture to another Pumpkin Station to experience other offerings (corn mazes, pony rides, tractor rides). This review is for anybody who wishes to hear my opinion...

    Awesome for little kids!!! My two are 1.5yo and 5yo, and my nephews are 3yo and 4yo. They had a blast going from ride to ride. It was a smaller pumpkin patch which I really loved... much easier to keep track of the kids and let them have a bit of freedom.

    This pumpkin patch has everything the kid wants - bouncy houses, petting zoo, carnival type rides , face painters and such. Plenty of parking on a dirt lot. Its always placed every year directly across from the Del Mar racetrack.

    This is a great place to visit during the fall season to get in the Halloween spirit! They have no shortages of pumpkins or haystacks. There are plenty of activities here for kids to enjoy and it certainly has the right atmosphere!

    $30 for 12 tickets. Great for when you have a few kids with you. But I only had my one with me, and each ride requiring only one ticket, we had half those ticlets left. Luckily I was able to sell them to a family who was walking in as we were walking out. My 6 yr old has pretty much out grown most of the rides there (kiddie train, plane, tea cups, tiny merry go round). He stuck with the jumpy slides, which the adults were able to enjoy too. The petting zoo was cool. Kids were able to climb into a farm tub filled with bunnies, chase chickens, and feed goats. We spent $6 for a great looking medium size pumpkin and a mini one. I have no complaints. I don't buy pumpkins often enough to feel the need to comparison shop. To make the trip extra special, I recommend bringing a travelers mug filled with spiked coffee. It's been a tradition of mine.

    Such a fun place to go. We came this year in the evening and couldn't believe how crowded it was. It was like these families made it their night on the town! It was fantastic. I have to say we used to come all the time, mostly in the day with my Mommie groups but now that my son is 10, there's not much for him to do. He enjoyed the slide and the bounce house. We actually met family there because i habe a young niece that got to enjoy the train and the merry go round as well as the petting zoo. The goats were adorable. It's grown and they even have a cool snack shack. Small venue but fun and more for the younger kids.

    This place has become Our Annual pumpkin patch. The rides are great for toddler thru 5-6 age group. The lines are Non- existent and the staff is friendly. You do need to bring socks for all the inflatable slides and bounce houses or they sell them there for $1. The pumpkins were all spread out so it was fun for the kids to search for the perfect pumpkin. We had a hot dog and lemonade when we were here and both were good. Similar to fair food or why you would normally expect at events like this. The petting zoo was a favorite and the train ride. If you go to there website you can get a free ride on the train.

    Got ourselves a pumpkin! :D Pumpkins this size are around $7.

For starters, it is a great place to bring people of all ages (as long as they aren't afraid of birds). You get to feed the birds, talk to them, dance with them, take photos with them, and feed the koi fish in the koi pond! I have always made my reservation online the night before I wanted to go and had no issues booking. I do recommend going earlier in the day when it is a little less busy and the birds are hungry! I believe the fee has gone up the last couple years but right now it is sitting at $10 per person which is still not very expensive at all in my opinion. You can also stay as long as you'd like. The volunteers are very kind and welcoming and are very knowledgeable about the birds. It is great to speak with them to learn more. Pro tip- I do feel that the sanctuary can get a little windy and cold so make sure to bring a light jacket and some water just in case!

    Yes--as other reviews have stated, the cost may seem like a lot for the visit. But if you love…read moreanimals or you want your kids to remember an experience, I would recommend the place. I enjoyed petting them and feeding the animals and being able to spend that time with the animals unlike in a crowded carnival style place that has a petting zoo. The staff who greeted us at the front were super sweet and friendly and playful too which makes the place feel just like another alternate world full of good, happy people. They have a little shop full of chocolates and when you enter, a staff member offers you a sample. She asked what we would like to try while kids received a milk chocolate with sprinkles on it. Because they're probably made with a lot of love and labor, the chocolates aren't cheap but not ridiculously overpriced either. I'm for sure the type though who would have spent a lot more on the chocolates if the tickets were cheaper but that's just me. I'm sure the ticket sales are better. A lot of people do walk out with purchasing any chocolate when I was there. I had fun looking at all of them though and deciding what I wanted. I will be back again when my children are a little older and it's a good excuse to stop by a winery while you're in the area.

    Sugarplum Zoo is adorable, slightly muddy magic--and we are *obsessed*…read more If your kid loves chasing pigs like it's their full-time job and happily feeding goats like a tiny farmer, this is absolutely your place. Mine was living her best life the entire time. Meanwhile, I was just trying to keep up and not get outsmarted by a goat Pro tips: the gelato is SO good (like, treat yourself good ) and definitely do *not* wear your nice shoes... unless you're okay with them becoming part of the farm experience 10/10 for laughs, memories, and a little bit of dirt

    I saw a video about this place on social media and saved it…read moreFor later, since it looked like a fun place to take my son. He is almost 6 years old, and I'm always looking for fun ideas/things we can do on weekends. We drove here from Santa Monica (about an hour). Parking is located a few minutes away from the farm. Keep moving down the trail, and you will find it. We bought tickets online, so the check-in process was easy. We purchased a veggie basket to feed the animals, and we paid some extra $$$ so my son can ride the tractor and play on the excavator. There is also a playground on site and a horse ride. It was nice, but after an hour, my son asked to leave. Younger kids will enjoy it more. It took us 1.5 hours to drive back, so we spent more time on the road than actually experiencing the farm. What I like is that there are variety of shops and restaurants around the farm, and it's cute. Boutiques to shop for jewelry, clothes, shoes, HomeGoods, all kinds of stuff, so that was really nice.

    Came by River Street Ranch and honestly... a bit overrated…read more It's a smaller spot than expected, so don't come in thinking it's a full-on big attraction. You can get through everything pretty quick. That said, it's still a nice place to check out if you're already in the area or want something easy to do with kids. The setup is clean and organized, and there's enough little things to keep it interesting for a short visit. Think more "quick stop" than "plan your whole day around it." Overall, it's decent, not a must-go destination, but not bad either. Good to add to your list if you're nearby and just want something simple to do.

The place was VERY busy while I was there but the lines moved fast and they had multiple places you could buy food and drinks which helped. They also have a little market with all types of snacks, food, and drinks that are perfect to enjoy out on the lawn or patio. We were too late to see the farm or animals but we could view them in the distance which was a really cool and unique experience. I cant wait to come back for one of their many events they seem to hold. Quick tips: parking was a disaster, don't assume you will be parking in their lot if you go on a busy night or weekend. They had options nearby though that you could walk from. Also, the margaritas are strong, but in a good way! Don't be fooled by the premixed drink, I had two and was definitely feeling it.

We didn't get a chance to do the farm tour since we were limited on time, so we just grabbed something to eat from the cafe inside the market, got some coffee, and hung out for a bit before heading out. Caramel Rosemary Latte 5/5: Surprisingly good. Savory Toast with Egg 5/5: From farm to fork, this was so good. Ham and Brie Sandwich 4/5: The kids got this. The filling was good, but the bread was a bit hard. Tuna Sandwich 4/5: Same with this one, the sandwich itself was good, but the bread was a bit dense. Overall, it's a great place, the food is great, and I'm looking forward to coming back.

Visits are by appointment only, so my husband and I booked a session on Valentine's Day. This was hands down the best animal experience we've had, thanks to the amazing staff and adorable animals. The animals were friendly, engaging, and active, which is a testament to how happy and well cared for they are. Each party is given a complimentary bucket of lettuce to feed the animals, with more available for purchase. We got to pet and feed not only mini pigs, but also goats, ducks, chickens, and even a large, handsome turkey. And because it was Valentine's Day, the staff passed around glasses of sparkling wine for guests, which was an extra special touch. The setting is tucked away in a mountainous area, making it feel like a hidden gem off the beaten path. It was the perfect stop on our way to San Diego. We're definitely looking forward to returning again next time!
