Overview

Welcome to our family-run animal sanctuary in the Catskills, just 13 minutes from Woodstock and Saugerties. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a chance to connect with our rescued animals, hear their incredible stories, and experience their unique personalities up close.

Every interaction is special because we let the animals set the pace. Our donkeys and goats eagerly soak up attention, while our emus cautiously but excitedly eat from your hand. Some animals love pets, others need space, and we honour their choices—though more often than not, they’re happy to meet new friends!

No matter the season, this experience is heartwarming, peaceful, and filled with moments worth capturing. By the end, you'll leave feeling inspired, refreshed, and connected to nature in a whole new way.

Activity itinerary

Experience a hands-on, private tour at Napping House Farm, where you’ll connect with friendly rescue animals in a peaceful, scenic setting in the Catskills. Your journey begins at the horse barn, where you’ll meet Osa and Neo, our gentle rescue horses. As you pet them, you'll hear their heartwarming stories, learn about their care, and discover how Osa has adapted to partial blindness. Next, we’ll meet our four affectionate miniature donkeys, who love attention (and a good butt scratch!). This is a great spot for photos. We’ll then visit our rescue pigs and treat them to a tasty snack. You’ll also have the chance to feed our emus, Gary and Barry, by hand and watch our rescue ducks and geese waddle around their pond. Finally, we’ll introduce you to our playful rescue goats, always eager for pets and affection. A perfect way to unwind, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the company of incredible animals. We can’t wait to welcome you to Napping House Farm!
