This property was all anyone could ever ask for. We enjoyed all the different seating choices outside with different views. It was so peaceful and quiet. Each of us ladies had our own bedroom and I haven’t slept this well in years. Needless to say I hated to leave. The goats made us feelWelcome and we enjoyed interacting with them.

My family and I came back for another peaceful, quiet getaway. The kids spent most of their time with the goats. There was plenty to do, including the hot tub, bonfires, roasting marshmallows, ping pong, and several indoor games. We enjoyed our stay, and the hosts checked in to make sure everything was fine.

This home was perfect even though there were only 4 of us. We appreciated that there were no bunk beds and our adult children were able to spread out and have our own spaces in comfort. We enjoyed the private location with close proximity to everything we had planned. The goat therapy was awesome! The hosts answered all of our questions and gave great recommendations on things to do. We will definitely book in the future if we are back in the area.

Absolutely amazing. Josh and Amy are very responsive to all questions. Not only is their home beautiful but it was spotless. The views from the back deck and hot tub are so beautiful. Of course my favorite part was being able to see those darling goats every morning, they are just the sweetest. Downtown Burnsville was also so much fun , we did a lot of site seeing during the day and then relaxed on the deck and hot tub and watched the beautiful sunset. Thank Josh and Amy, you can assure we will be back. Lisa and family.
