Reviews From Our Guests
- The farm stay was a fun change from the rest of our trip. The animals were entertaining and the hosts great - welcoming and informative. Our beds were very comfy, and the breakfast tasty, including eggs from the farm's chickens.
- We always stay here when we are in the area. We love the farm (especially the goats - they follow you up the hill as if you were the Pied Piper!) and it's close to the bike trails. Great people, comfy beds, fun animals. So relaxing to be out of the city!
- My husband and I had a GREAT time at Rainbow Ridge B&B! We wanted to get away and try something new. We got to help with milking the goats- which was so much fun. The baby goats are adorable and so hilarious- and we even got to bottle feed a few! It's so peaceful and calming to be around all of the farm animals (who co-exist in the same pens with no issues! [goats, llama, donkey, chickens, ducks, turkeys, dogs, cats]). Our host, Donna, was very friendly and taught us so much. We can't wait to go back and bring our kids!
- Amazing place to escape from everyone and everything and enjoy beautiful nature and animals. We spent 3 nights there and already planning our next visit. Better than any hotels and any resorts!
