We had such a great experience at the Rockin Reindeer Ranch! I had no idea Reindeer were so gentle and soft. It was so fun to meet them up close and get to scratch their fur and feed them. Our two kids ages 1 & 3 were both entranced by the education part which I was worried would be hard to focus on, but the entire time the reindeer was in the room it held their attention.The staff is so nice and they put a lot of thought into an accommodation for us in a special circumstance which was much appreciated. If you have any questions be sure to give them a call and they would be happy to help!Some info I found helpful:- Masks are required during the tour. The benches are about 6’ apart and the families in our group were able to social distance. They also supply hand sanitizer.- Reindeers are toddler friendly... amazingly so. My 1 year old walked right up to the side of the reindeer to pet her side. They apparently don’t kick or bite so as long as you don’t lean in to their antlers you’re safe. The presenter held onto the leash.- The kids were able to feed the reindeer—the way they do it is really smart. You hold a bowl that’s just the right size with a little food in the bottom so there’s no risk to little fingers during the feeding experience.- The barn is warm but dress for the weather if you want to enjoy viewing the reindeer a little longer outdoors at the end. :)- Not part of the tour, but my kids loved seeing the other animals on-site—another kind of deer (looks like Bambi with the spots), horses, a donkey, a cow, chickens, ducks, and turkeys.
Memories that will last for ever!!! The costumer service and professionalism was top notch. There was a real Christmas spirit, you dont expect a barn to have a magical Christmas feel like theirs did. The reindeer brought everything together for the children and the adults. We would defiantly go back and defiantly recommend the ranch to friends and neighbors as a yearly tradition.
What a fun place to bring friends and family! We love this place and will be back again. Great hosts and we love the reindeer!
Such a super sweet experience for the whole family!
