We stayed one night celebrating our seven-year-old birthday with our nine year old as well and we all had a blast. If anyone has an Animal lover or young farmer, they will truly enjoy feeding the animals. We must’ve spent hours when we added up the time just feeding the animals and laughing. Thank you so much, Heather for your kindness And the awesome coffee will be back.

AMAZING!

We had the best time at the Tipsy Goat playing with the goats, Llama, chickens and Rabbits. We liked that we were allowed to go in with the animals and love on them as well as feed them. They are all well fed and lovingly taken care of. The house was extremely clean and cozy. There was a lot of coffee and snack options available. The owner thought of everything. We are looking forward to coming back soo!

This was truly an experience to stay here at the Tipsy Goat Ranch. We loved feeding the animals, enjoyed the hot tub, just be there and relax. Everything was clean, the house was full of fun quotes and nice details. You can feel that Heather wants you to feel at home and enjoy your time there. I would recommend to stay here! We stayed for 3 nights. When we entered the house in te evening, our first thought was: 3 nights won't be enough. It was so welcoming, the complete atmosphere, the bounding with the animals, all the details... We will definitely come back. This is a place you could easily stay for a week. We planned to visit San Diego on our first day, but we decided to stay for a full day at the ranch and we all loved this day. The next day we went to San Diego and it was a short and easy 30min drive. This was by far the best and most memorable accomodation of our roadtrip.

We had a fabulous time feeding the animals and relaxing at The Outside Inn. Our 11 year old enjoyed sleeping up in the loft. Our hard to please 15 year old son even enjoyed spending time with the animals. We would definitely stay here again.

Miss it already!

Our family of 4 stayed here for the second time and we loved it so much we hope to make it an annual adventure! The Outside Inn is magical, charming, and rustic. Being greeted every morning by goats at our window and being able to enjoy the playground and pool were huge bonuses for our kids.

Exceeded our expectations on all levels. Sad we didn’t have more time to spend there. The barn turned home was amazing- home sweet home feeling. The access to animals was top tier. There’s really no reason to leave the property if you come prepared with meals. The house manual was . This could be a romantic getaway, a weekend reset, and great for all ages.
This was my favorite - feeding the animals from the primary bedroom window.
Each of these babies are named, and loved so well.
The peaceful sunset was beautiful
