About this property

Enchanting 20-acre Therapeutic Farm Resort w/ petting zoo and onsite activities!

This private farmstay on a 20-acre working farm and licensed petting zoo features use of an all brick Victorian-style home that includes several bedrooms and bathrooms that accommodate large groups of guests comfortably with a great deal of privacy. Staff do not enter the home during guests’ reservations unless guests need assistance.

Guests will share the 20-acre farm resort grounds with other visitors and staff but will have exclusive use of the home, pool, and courtyard are included with this booking. If you are interested in exclusive use of the entire resort, please inquire.

All beds are king or queen beds. Enjoy modern amenities including TV, wifi and ethernet internet, a business center. There is a dining room with a huge table that seats 14 people. The home boasts a modern chic feel contrasted with a rustic flavor that makes for a very unique interior design experience. You’ll easily forget you are staying on a farm because we spared no expense in making the decor very interesting.

We have an amazing salt water inground pool and attached whirlpool open 24/7 from mid-May thru September (weather permitting). The pool area features two large cabanas with mosquito nets, furnishing, and privacy curtains. The pool area has plenty of lounge chairs and pool toys. Don’t be surprised if an alpaca walks up to the pool fence to check on you. We designed our pasture area to circle the home so that guests can enjoy views of them through the windows. It’s pure bliss seeing them.

The home is wonderful but it is actually the least awesome feature of our farmstay resort. What everyone loves most about this farm are the animals, outdoor area, Clubhouse, event barn, geodomes, camping, greenhouse, Premium Attractions, and the rural peaceful vibe. Locals and tourists alike adore this property as it has such a unique and beautiful layout.

The visual beauty of the property is not where the experience ends. Wait until you meet our herd of alpacas, miniature horse, pony, mini-cows, mini donkey, dwarf goats, pigs, bunnies, exotic breed chickens, ducks, geese, wild birds, sulcata tortoise, and barn cats. Animal lovers won’t want to leave.

You can book a formal farm tour to hear the story of how Charity’s Hope Family Farm Resort came to be. Every animal has a story as most of them were rescues. Our family has a story. This area is rich in history. More importantly, the area has a bright future as new people discover the joys of new-age farming and welcome the much-needed innovation in the agricultural industry called agritourism.

Our resort boasts an endless array of Premium Attractions and activities including go-kart, UTV, moonbounce, golf simulator, 360 photo booth, balloon bubble, plant bar, goat cuddling, animal feeding, paddle boat, kayak, fishing, stargazing, hiking, birdwatching, arts and crafts, pool table, ping pong table, air hockey, foosball, 30 foot inflatable movie screen, children’s toy area, playground, and much more.
Book this home to create lasting memories with your friends, family, colleagues, or organization. You won’t regret it.
