You will find couples seating by the river, ponds and along the trails, so many swings to enjoy, land art to discover, a beach to relax on, spots to read, fire pit S'Mores time and who doesn't enjoy watching farm animals be farm animals (currently ponies, goats, bunnies, alpacas, ducks & variety of birdlife on property and in their aviary). IF YOU READ THIS FAR... Mountain Magic obviously checks a lot of your boxes, may fill your "Vacation Bingo Card" and you are likely already picturing your family enjoying the curated experience (and the animals).

This is a shared farm with multiple cabins and shared amenities. Walk right into the petting zoo & bird aviary (use common sense as goats will push over a child for a carrot), fish from the banks or bridge, tube down the river, tube down the slide, find two ziplines, try your hand at axe throwing or PICKLEBALL... Step a little outside your comfort zone, it's all part of the experience! Other things to note NO HOLIDAY ARRIVALS OR DEPARTURES.

No Extra Visitors Allowed to visit the Farm other than approved guests staying in the cabin. Petting Zoo? Yes, walk right into the pen! We do recommend bringing veggies like kale/leafy greens, carrots and/or quartered apples to bribe the animals with (no corn or sweet feed allowed).
