Immediately after pulling into the barn’s parking area we were greeted by Amber who promptly gave us a tour of the animal enclosures I was surprised to see just how many animals she had. Overall great stay!

Charming, rustic, cozy place to see the stars and some animals. Make sure you screenshot the gate code before turning off the main highway, because cell service isn’t great and you might not be able to access this app. (WiFi is great once you arrive.) We would stay here again.

This was a wonderful experience for myself and my daughters as you really get to connect with mother nature is out in the mountains. There is very little lights from home and you could see the star so spectacularly bright all the animals that are on the property we got introduced to by the Host). Her name is Amy. We had a wonderful time doing that and then she also introduced us to an area. We could do some knife, throwing as well as the horseshoe pit, and we love the wood-burning fireplace.

We enjoyed staying in the apartment above the Barn. The mini ponies and the donkey who live on the property are fun to pet, and the chickens, ducks, turkeys and peacocks were all on display. The bed was comfortable, but the chairs and the shower were a bit too small for me, since I am larger than most people. However, the experience was so different from other places I stayed that I enjoyed it despite the inconvenience.

Clean,I may have not read instructions well but would bring own plates/utensils. They're difficult to serve on. Amber provided fresh duck eggs - so generous! The kids loved gently interacting with the animals, though it was difficult to understand what interactions were ok and what weren't. Really lovely location, lovely host. Exact accommodation we were looking for!

My adult son and I were deer hunting in the Palomar area and our usual place was booked up. This place was perfect for our needs and was pretty close. Amber was a great host and introduced us to some of the many animals she has adopted. I really liked Ricky the donkey. My son wants to bring my grandkids up for a stay so they can enjoy Amber's petting zoo. I really enjoyed this place.

A true heaven.

Amber is absolutely amazing. Greeted us the moment we arrived and was also there for any questions or concerns we had. She also gave us fresh duck eggs, and they were YUMMY!!!The property is so unique with chickens, roosters, ducks, peacocks, ostriches, goats, donkey, mini horses, regular horses all enclosed and there for viewing (bring some carrots, apples, lettuce) they love it!! Plenty of space to go for a walk along country roads. The best part is that the place is so far from civilization, there's no sound of traffic, planes and the general city sounds, just peace and quiet, with many shiny stars during the night. Fireworks are 100% forbidden so we really enjoyed spending the quiet July 4th long weekend far away from LA.

Wonderful stay

What a wonderful property and even more wonderful host! Amber was incredible. She took the time to show us around and let us meet all of the animals. My sister loved petting Tom the Turkey. He was suprisingly very mellow. But the one who stole the show and I had to stop by to say hello was the sweetest little donkey. Amber also guided us to a beautiful hike called Blue Lady Mine nearby. If you love crystals and caves, you will love this hike!If we are in the area again, we are definitely staying at The Barn!

Great little farm stay

This is a beautifully maintained mini working farm with a comfy barn and a wide range of animals to check out (some of the rescued). It's in the country and quiet but easy to get to, Amber is a great host, and the bed is comfy. I would definitely return.

Incredible experience

Peaceful property with very stylish and very clean barn. Our two sons were amazed with how many animals they could pet. Amber, our host gave us a bowl of carrots to feed to the sheep, donkeys, goats and horses. There are chickens, peacocks, turkey, ducks — we got fresh duck eggs for breakfast! It was an amazing experience for the whole family. Our 2 large dogs were very welcome and had a great time as well.

Nice getaway on a cute farm!

The check in process was a breeze when we arrived. The whole farm was so cute and nice to walk around. The miniature horses were adorable and seeing all the other animals definitely made the trip worth it. Gave us a little taste of the homestead life. The barn was set up so nicely inside and it felt like a comfy little home away from home. Would definitely stay here again!
