Meet our special family members. We love being able to share them with guests*. They are sure to be the best part of your stay.
Meet our horses: Lady DeVille, Bubba B, Vanilla Beans and Cabernet.
Meet Lady, our bold and beautiful champion racehorse with a remarkable lineage as the great-great-granddaughter of the legendary Secretariat. Despite a career-ending injury on the track, Lady’s spirit remains unbroken. She captivates everyone with her strength, power and stunning beauty embodying the legacy of her illustrious ancestor. Lady now enjoys a peaceful life on our farm, where guests can appreciate her majestic presence and rich heritage.
Bubba B is a favorite among all guests. More of a puppy than a horse, this sweet boy will follow you around and give plenty of kisses. Bubba B was born in 2018, with an impressive lineage, including Seattle Slew. He quickly began his training as a future race horse. It was during training that an ankle defect was discovered, halting his racing career. After adopting him, in 2020, we quickly learned that he is a character, showing off his dancing skills in the pasture.Do not be surprised if you see Bubba B jumping around. He loves to put on a show.
Vanilla Beans (aka Beans) is a Palomino Quarter Horse, and retired rodeo star. A champion ex-roper and barrel racer, Beans now enjoys the quiet life on the ranch. His soft beauty matches his sweet personality. He is extremely polite, and a guest favorite for evening grooming.
Cabernet (Cabbie) is a dark bay Thoroughbred. He raced under the name, Sir Clouseau, before being injured. After his injury he went through a rehabilitation program and was trained for eventing. Cabbie has a sweet personality; always showing good manners and respect.
Fun Fact: Think it may be hard to tell Bubba B and Cabbie apart? Bubba B’s body is all brown, while Cabbie has a brown center with a black neck, hind area and legs.
Goats, Chickens and Dogs
Meet Ginger and Cinnamon, our hilarious divas who bring endless entertainment to the farm. If they were human, these two would be sipping Chardonnay and smoking cigarettes, embodying the spirits of Thelma and Louise. Always up to some kind of mischief, they thrive on the attention of our guests while enjoying their leisurely days. Come meet Ginger and Cinnamon, and experience the delightful antics of these charismatic troublemakers.
Who likes eggs? We have 31 hens. These lively girls are a lot of fun and always a hit with guests.
Last but not least, no home or farm is complete without a dog. We currently have 4 sweet pups. Meet Napa, Vino, Champagne (“Champ”) and Rue. Guests will often see the dogs running around the farm. Champ, our biggest and youngest dog, loves everyone he meets and will excitedly welcome you. Don’t be surprised if the little ones try and sit on your lap while you are relaxing outside.
*We allow all of our animals to live a very natural life. To do this, we do not leave them locked up, on display. Rather, we invite guests to participate in their daily routines and see them in their natural environment. Though our animals follow a daily routine, there are times this routine is adjusted for weather or appointments. We try our best to let guests interact with them, however on rare occasions, they can be stubborn.
Horse grooming:
Grooming takes place daily. During the warm months, grooming takes place in the afternoon. During the cooler months , grooming is at night. This is a wonderful activity and we hope you will participate. However, on rare occasions the horses will not be groomed if there are sudden changes to weather or appointments disrupting their schedule.
Photos are always permitted, but please remain alert.
