We had the best time at Ol Mel’s farm celebrating our daughters 2nd birthday! They were so helpful and the place was perfect for a kids birthday party. We can’t wait to go back!
This farm is amazing! We stayed overnight at the Airbnb on property and saw so many stars at night, bbq'd hotdogs, made smores, held a baby goat and got to brush a highland cow! We fed so many goats and sheep! My son sad it was the best day he ever had!! There were also water tables and a nice area with some activities for the kids to cool down in the shade while you watched the chickens and fowl wander.
Ol'Mels Farm was a blessing to be able to visit. They are so kind and friendly. We had a Blast petting all the animals and the baby bunnies and lambs and chickens. The farm is truly alive and the animals are happy and peaceful, that means they are well thanken care of. Thank you OlMel's for being such a blessing to the community and to us today. You made our family smile!
Geared towards the little ones, but was big fun for everyone. Not the largest of farms but was perfectly sized for all the little kids on the trip. They were very professional, polite, and prepared. They know how to keep the children engaged and excited.
Had a great visit. Wonderful place with lots of farm animals. Great way to spend an afternoon.
Let me start off with first stating, Melanie was really nice and tried to accommodate us through our 4 day stay. The farm is small enough to visit all the animals easily and they love when you do. The cows and baby chicks were a family fav. The loft is an open area with 2 twin bunk beds and a queen. ***fyi***there’s no privacy! The bunks are very comfortable, in fact we slept in one for 2 nights. You may ask yourself why??? The queen, is really soft and caves in. There’s 2 baths with showers only, they’re nice, made for smaller individuals, moderate water pressure but they do the job. Remember, you’re in the country so there’s a 20 minute drive to Pineville for a run. But it’s not a bad drive! Only water to use in outside or bathroom. No water in mini kitchen that has a microwave, full fridge, coffee maker. Pros: -Animals: cows, sheep, goats, pigs, chicks, rabbits, a horse and shetland ponies. Forgive me if I missed anything. -Property size -Host Melanie -Able to feed animals all day and night -Well working a/c - Horse back ride -AW Drive In a must try hamburger Cons: -No privacy -Queen bed to soft -NO Running water or Light in kitchen -All cooking done outside on a griddle/grill set -Hard to locate needed items (screwers etc) -Items had to be requested upon arrival (spoons, toilet paper etc) -Not handicapped friendly All in all… it’s a nice getaway for the kiddos to visit, see, play with, feed, love on all the animals. Experience nature on a small scale which is a plus in my book. There’s no nature trails that I’m aware of, but I’m not sure if I’d go on any if they were. They’re looking into putting in a kitchenette eventually so read.
A great place for families, loved all the animals.
Every experience here is the absolute best, today's adventure was my daughter's proposal and it couldn't have gone any better, amazing day at the pumpkin patch, Mel was amazing and helped us take pictures, we even got to see the new born baby goat! It was an amazing day for sure! Excited to continue making memories here with my children and grandchildren
Great festivals. Great farm for parties and etc! Look them up u won’t be disappointed. Great for kids.
A lot of farm fun for the family!
This is really a great place for kids and adults. The animals are super sweet and friendly. I could spend a whole day studying the old trucks and tractors. We had pictures done here as well. They turned out great.
Small farm but quite the experience! My daughter loved it. Mini and regular horses, cows, goats, sheep, donkeys, ducks, pigs, chickens. Yall go check it out!!!
Great place for a small party if your kiddos love animals… unless it’s outdoor season. Inside during the summer can’t hold very many people.
