If you don't know what to do, feel free to ask one of our co-hosts (animals) as they are always ready to help entertain you. Speaking of which...
โ˜… ANIMALS ANIMALS ANIMALS โ˜…
Please note that we have 12 dogs, 2 mini-horses, 2 mini-cows, 4 goats, 7 pigs, 7 emus, and one giant Sulcata tortoise in addition to a host of other smaller animals like chicken, ducks and guinea pigs. This means that you really must love animals to enjoy your stay here โ€“ theyโ€™re all friendly and will definitely come to say hello. Many of them you can hug and cuddle, and if you need help making that happen let us know ๐Ÿ™‚
Here are some of their names, in case you're wondering. Dogs are Baby Shark, Tilt, Little Bear, Saucy, Lapsang, Souchong, Ocho, Squigs, Junior, Pancake, Loofa, and the Ancient One (aka Crouton). Pigs are Piggie Smalls (aka Big Pig), Skinny Pig, Nice Pig, Scaredy Pig, Clem, Dudu, and the little pink new guy TBD.

The cows are Big Head and Bug Eyes. Goats are Zoomer, Nugget, Maniac, and Girl Goat. Thereโ€™s more, but weโ€™ll leave it here.
Our beloved livestock guardian dogs, 3 Anatolian Shepherds and 1 Great Pyranees (all rescued) diligently protect the ranch from coyotes and may bark at night. We understand that this may be bothersome to some guests and we provide earplugs as a courtesy to ensure a peaceful night's rest.

Summary: Loved staying here! Vanessa and her partner have created a magical place to rest, center, and breathe. All of the animals on the property -- and there are plenty -- are well taken care of and incredibly friendly. I had emus, dogs, guinea hens, ponies and more coming up to me to give and get some loves. This all just enhanced the experience! Great location right between JT and Palm Springs too. Totally would recommend!
