We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Jireh Hills Family Homestead. I would genuinely recommend this place to anyone, regardless of where you’re from or whether you’re used to city life or the outdoors. It’s such a beautiful opportunity to slow down, disconnect from the everyday routine, spend time in nature, and just enjoy being present.The cheesemaking class is an absolute must! It was one of the highlights of our stay and something I would highly recommend adding to your visit.Cheryl, John, and the whole family were incredibly kind, warm, accommodating, and easy to talk to. They really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and at home while you’re there.The kids had a blast, we loved our time on the farm, and we left feeling like this was so much more than just a place to stay. It was a genuinely memorable experience and one we’d happily recommend to others. Thank you for having us!

Well we’ve only been home for a few hours and we are already missing Jireh Hills Family Homestead and trying to figure out when we can come back. The funny thing is I came across this place randomly when searching on Google for places to stay near farm animals as my toddler is obsessed with farm animals. We went for a weekend with our 2 kids, ages 18 months and 17 years old, so it’s very hard to find things that will appeal to both of them. But this place was a huge hit and they both had the time of our lives. Cheryl and John were so kind and made us feel so welcome. Always checking in on us to see if we needed anything and took the time to remember all of our names. All of their children are just as sweet, waving and saying hi to us any time they saw us. They let us join in on the farm chores and my 17 year old helped them with the hay trying to beat the rain and he thought it was the coolest thing. He said he also really enjoyed his conversations with Cheryl throughout the weekend. We did the Whiskers, Paws, and Hooves farm immersion activity and learned so much. The best part was spending time with the goats. My toddler even enjoyed the entire activity and stayed still and watched the farm chores, which is very rare for him to be interested for so long. We also did the bunny babysitting which my toddler took charge of and was so awesome to watch him learn responsibility and go check on his bunnies throughout the day and as soon as he woke up the next morning. The lodge was very nice and had everything we needed. I wish I knew what type of mattress they have because it was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. The shower room was fancy and felt like we were at a 5 star hotel. We chose the heat and serve meals to make our trip even easier and they were delicious. The property was beautiful and relaxing and just felt like a huge weight off our shoulders while we were there. It was the perfect little escape and some much needed family time. Thank you so much for the best weekend and hopefully see you again very soon!

A truly magical escape from the chaos of everyday life!We had the pleasure of meeting Cheryl, John Mark, and their wonderful children, who run this farm. Their warmth and passion for what they do is contagious.The highlight for our kids (and us!) was the up-close interaction with the animals. It wasn't just a quick look from a fence; we got to really connect with them, and learn fun facts about them. You can tell how well-loved and cared for every single creature is.The views were absolutely stunning. It was the perfect place to slow down, breathe, and "zoom out" of our busy schedules. We enjoyed walking around the farm, feeding the goats, watching the sunset, and just sitting and connecting as a family around the fire pit.The cabin we stayed in has a small but well equipped kitchen. It had everything we needed for our one-night stay.We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already planning our return. Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us! 🌿🐑❤️

The perfect rating is warranted! Cheryl and her family were very welcoming in sharing their farm experience. They accommodated our schedule and spent extra time to make sure we had an excellent experience. The soap making class was both informative and fun! We also asked to see some goat milking which was an added bonus! Cheryl was very open to customizing our experience. We were able to take some time to interact with the animals and ask questions without feeling rushed. It felt like family friends inviting you over to share a unique experience!

This was a great night way with 2 teenagers! We loved how friendly and welcoming everyone was and the cabin was adorable! Both kids are NOT outside people and are so ready to go back again and visit! Thank you for being so kind to our family and sharing this beautiful place.

We had such a wonderful time staying at Jireh Hills family farm for a night! Everything was so well organized, peaceful, and welcoming.

We had such a wonderful visit at Jireh Farms and can’t recommend it enough. The personalized tour made the experience feel so special, and we truly appreciated the time and care that was put into showing us around the farm. It is absolutely beautiful — peaceful, well-kept, and clearly loved by the Jireh family.Our son Hudson especially enjoyed spending time with the goats and bunnies, and watching his excitement throughout the visit was the highlight of our day. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and memorable experience for our family.

We just finished our two nights stay at the Jireh Hills Family and we miss it already!! The animals are so friendly and well cared for and we got to interact with them and we even made a friend! Tootsie the little goat (my 11-year-old calls her GOAT the greatest of all time) followed us around everyday. When she knew we were leaving and she followed our car and said goodbye. So sweet 🩷.The humans too are super nice 😊. Cheryl, John Mark and the girls are great hosts!! They are friendly and attentive and we learned so much about the farm, the animals, and how to take care of ponies🐴 and make cheese 🧀! Highly recommend the experiences they offer and don’t miss the daily chores too 😉 !!We stayed at the RV and that was also fun. The place was clean and comfortable and not to mention the beautiful sunset by the bonfire every night 🌅.Thank you #JirehHill family for a wonderful time!! We are already thinking to come back to see Tootsie again 😊.

Our family just spent a very enjoyable weekend on the Jireh Hills Family homestead. The accommodations consisted of a lodge and the trailer which were comfortable, clean and had every amenity we needed. We had a group of 6 adults and 4 grandchildren that range from 13 years old to 2 years old and everyone found joy in their experience. Cuddling the baby bunnies and goats was a favorite along with an opportunity to help with the daily chores. The cheese making class was also a great learning experience. This was truly a natural and organic farm experience, that demonstrated the love and respect Cheryl, John and their family have for the land and their animals. I highly recommend this vacation experience. Thank you so very much, our time on your farm far exceeded our expectations. Terry and family.

We just returned home from our 2 night stay at Jireh Hills Family Homestead, and it was truly unforgettable!! We were warmly welcomed the moment we arrived. Everything about Jireh hills is amazing! We stayed in one of the lodges and it was perfect and beautifully designed. It had everything we needed. My daughter enjoyed running out the door to visit with the animals and help with the chores each morning. We had goats, bunnies, dogs, a rooster and his hens, even some piggies visiting us right at our door! On our final morning I enjoyed my coffee overlooking the pond as a blue heron flew in for a visit. So beautiful!!It was so peaceful and we loved every minute. Our fav was visiting and interacting with all the animals each day. We are already planning our return!! Thanks to the Jireh Hills family for the wonderful hospitality ✨

There truly aren’t enough words to describe how incredible our stay at Jireh Hills was!!! No matter how much I say, it still wouldn’t do this place justice. The farm is absolutely breathtaking, beautiful, peaceful, and incredibly spacious. It’s the perfect place to relax, reconnect with nature, and simply enjoy the beauty of farm life. Cheryl and her beautiful family were amazing!! They were so kind, welcoming, and genuinely made us feel at home from the moment we arrived.The animals were such a special part of our experience, especially Tootsie the goat! She kept visiting us at our RV, and every visit made us smile. It felt like she was coming to check on us, and she completely stole our hearts😍❤️If you’re looking for a genuine farm experience where you can slow down, connect with nature, and make unforgettable memories, this is the place. We left with full hearts and already can’t wait to come back.Thank you, Cheryl and John Mark, for giving us such a magical experience!!! We’ll be talking about this trip for a very long time, and we’ll definitely be back.

My family of 4 (kids ages 3 and 9 months) had such an amazing experience at Jireh Farms! We stayed overnight in the Alpaca cabin. The cabin was beautiful, surprisingly modern inside and comfortable. Very well equipped, even for small children. You only need to bring your food and personal items.The property is vast with lots to see and explore. You feel really immersed in the farm life with all the animals but you don’t have to do any of the work! The family is very welcoming and it’s inspiring to see how hard they work together. The sunset is not to be missed!

Cheryl was such a sweet heart! Such a great host. My mom and I had a lovely tour, accompanied by Cheryl and we enjoyed every bit of it. She was flexible with our booking and had quick communication. The property is immaculately organized and clean for a farm. We had the lovely opportunity of meeting the animals that were loved and cared for. Would definitely recommend anyone coming by to make a stop!

What an absolutely amazing experience! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and treated like family.The fresh cow’s milk was incredible — you can truly taste the difference when it comes straight from the farm. The breakfast was honestly one of the best we have ever had: exceptionally fresh, delicious, and prepared with great care. Every ingredient tasted natural and high quality.The entire homestead experience was unforgettable. The peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, friendly hosts, and authentic farm life made our stay truly special.If you’re looking for a genuine farm experience with outstanding hospitality and amazingly fresh food, this is the place to visit. We cannot recommend Jireh Hills Family Homestead highly enough and would love to come back again!Thank you for such wonderful memories! ❤️🐄🌾🥛🥚🍞

Our family had such a lovely time at Jireh Hills Family Homestay. The hosts, Baba Pair and Mama Pair, together with their children, gave us a warm and memorable experience.The hands-on activities made the visit extra special. We got to try cow milking, learned how to make soap, and also joined a cheese-making session. Everything was explained nicely, and the activities were enjoyable for both adults and kids.It was a relaxing, educational, and family-friendly experience. Thank you for the beautiful memories!

We didn’t know we were booking a mysterious place hosted by a mysterious family… so be aware before you go!We stayed in the Glamping RV for my son’s 8th birthday, and from the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family. “Mama bear” appeared with warmth, a surprise gift, and a beautiful handwritten note for my son that made his birthday unforgettable.The RV was clean, cozy, and perfectly arranged right in front of the farm. “Pappa bear” was busy building a new kitchen, helping around the farm, and taking us on a farm tour filled with stories from his own life that made us feel like we had stepped into another world.Then come the girls, Myra, Victoria, Ava, and Ruth. Sweet, kind, and full of love for animals, nature, and simple living. They helped the kids milk goats, feed pigs and ponies. My kids enjoyed petting a bunny and a hen.The campfire night with BBQ on the farm under perfect weather was amazing.But the real challenge comes when it’s time to leave. Your kids may cry and ask to stay longer. You may start wondering how such a simple life can feel so peaceful, joyful, and real.We are still asking ourselves whether we are in a movie or in real life, and already counting the days until the next visit. Very happy to support this wonderful local family farm business.

Went for the cheese making class this weekend and had a fantastic time. The property is beautiful and the family is warm and welcoming.The class is fun and insightful. We samples about as much cheese as our stomach would allow and had a great laugh and conversation with the teacher. Thanks again, Jireh hills. We will be sure to come again for the sausage making class

Our recent stay at Jireh Hills Family Homestead was truly unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, Cheryl and John Mark welcomed us with such warmth and kindness that we immediately felt at home. Their hospitality, along with the kindness of the whole family, made the entire experience so special.The cheese making class was one of the highlights of our stay — incredibly informative, hands-on, and exciting! We discovered so many fascinating facts about cheese making that we had never known before. Honestly, attending this class is a must. It completely changes the way you think about different cheese types and even how you choose and purchase cheese afterward.The lodge was cozy, peaceful, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. My girls absolutely loved participating in the farm chores and activities — they enjoyed it so much that they kept saying they wanted to stay there forever hahaha!There is honestly so much more I could say about this beautiful place, the animals, the learning experiences, and the peaceful atmosphere… but it’s something you truly need to experience for yourself. Highly recommended for families looking to relax, learn, and create unforgettable memories together!

Thank you so much Cheryl, John and the whole family for such a wonderful and memorable stay. Your warmth, kindness, and hospitality made us feel truly at home from the moment we arrived.We loved every part of the experience from feeding the alpacas, bunnies, and baby goats to getting a glimpse of daily farm life and all the chores that keep everything running. It was such a special and enriching experience for our whole family.Our daughter especially had the most magical time she enjoyed every single moment, and her pony ride was definitely a highlight she won’t stop talking about!Thank you for creating such a beautiful, welcoming place for families to connect with nature and make lasting memories. We’re so grateful for our time here and can’t wait to come back again.

The Jireh Hills Family Homestead family is warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and accommodating. This was my daughter's first time around horses and Lexi and Ruth-Anne slowly built up her confidence so that she went from standing behind me to sitting on a Star (the pony) and smiling ear to ear! John and Cheryl were very accommodating and the entire family was a pleasure to meet. We will certainly be returning for more great experiences, God willing! The website is very easy to navigate through and book activities, which made the experience much easier to book compared to other websites I have visited.

I was searching for a place to rest, read, and rejuvenate. Not the environmental3 R's, but the mental 3 R's. Well, I found all of that and so much more during my stay at Jireh Hills Family Homestead.I had a friendly welcome upon arrival by both Cheryl and John Mark, then a quick tour to get the 'lay of the land'. My little home for the stay was perfect! So homey and cozy. Chore times with the girls was a great learning experience. They all explained what they were doing, and I could tell they enjoyed their work. I fell in love with the goats, and was thrilled to be able to cuddle a 2-day old kid and bottle feed another! I will definitely be returning for another getaway, and probably more goat cuddles before that. Thanks so much!

We stayed a night at their lodge and joined them in their daily chores. We had such a great time and loved every minute of it. My husband helped with milking the cow, and my toddler made new baby goat friends. Every member of the family is so kind and welcoming. We felt so comfortable staying at their homestead. 10/10 experience, will definitely come again

Dear Pastor, Cheryl and Kids,Thank you so much for your warm hospitality and for opening your beautiful farm to us. Our stay was truly a blessing. The peaceful surroundings, the care you put into every detail, and the comfort we experienced made our time there deeply refreshing for both body and spirit.We are grateful not only for the beauty of your property, but also for the kindness and generosity you showed us. It reminded us of God’s goodness and the gift of rest that He provides through places like yours. As it says in Scripture, “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you” (Numbers 6:24–25).Thank you again for creating such a welcoming and restful space. We leave with grateful hearts and cherished memories, and we pray that God continues to bless you, your home, and all the work of your hands.With heartfelt thanks and blessings,Kids and Naomi

We spent a few days at the Jireh Hills Homestead and wow what an unforgettable experience that was. It was magical to see the excitement on my kids' faces when they collected eggs in a chicken coup for the first time, and watched cows and goats being milked in real life. We also did the cheese making workshop, pony rides and bunny babysitting while we were there, and all were excellent and well organized. We all learned so much about farming in a short few days and my kids loved every single minute of it. In fact they all said it was the best vacation ever, and all want to go back and stay there longer next time.Cheryl, John and their lovely kids could not have been more welcoming, warm and engaging. The lodge had everything that we needed for basic cooking and was very clean and comfortable, although my kids were so happy on the farm that they barely spent any time inside the lodge! Overall a 10/10 experience and a perfect getaway from the daily hustle and bustle of the city life. If your kids are fans of petting zoos, they will love it here.

My weekend at Jireh Hills Homestead was genuinely refreshing. The property has a calm atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind, and the surroundings are carefully maintained. The cabin was clean, warm and thoughtfully prepared for a comfortable stay.The farm experience was a highlight. The eggs from their farm were delicious, and we learned so much about the animals. Meeting the alpacas was memorable, and my nephew was thrilled with his pony ride. We ended the day sitting by the fire, which made the visit feel relaxed and welcoming. He did not want to leave at all and kept saying he wished he could stay forever.Cheryl and John, along with their children, were wonderful hosts. Their kindness and enthusiasm added to the experience, and communication throughout the stay was smooth and clear.I would be happy to return and recommend Jireh Hills to anyone looking for a peaceful and engaging getaway.

My daughter is a big fan of piglets. We did a lot of research and found this place. It is a true paradise. Cheryl and John Mark are very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. We met all different kinds of farm animals and learned a lot during our 2 hour tour. Highly recommend!

We attended a birthday party here and it was a great experience! We got to learn about the homestead and all of their animals, the kids could ride ponies, feed and interact with the pigs and get right in the goat pen to hang out with about 30 goats! A bonfire was provided for cooking some lunch, as well as picnic tables and lots of seating. Bathroom facilities were very nice and clean (they double as bathroom facilities for Jireh’s camp sites and cabins as well). Would love to hike their nature walk if we come back again!

This was a real fun activity. Arranged it for my daughter-in-law's birthday surprise. She was truly surprised & loved the animals. We did the Alpaca walk. They are beautiful animals, as are all the others at Jireh Hills Family Homestead. It's really worth it to bring family or friends for a afternoon adventure.

It is probably the best getaway place I have ever been to in my life! This place has a tremendous amount to offer if you are an animal lover. It has pigs, horses, sheep, chickens, alpacas, bunnies, and a few more.There are massive green areas you can stroll through. The cabin was very well furnished, and it has a new, well-working, and clean BBQ grill stand, as well as a small fire pit where you can sit around after dinner.Sarah and Jean-Marc were extremely friendly and welcoming. They have kids who were working at the farm and three German Shepherds who were all friendly and made us feel home.

Stayed in the RV for a night with my 2 boys and parents. All of us had a wonderful time. The hosts were hospitable and friendly. They educated us about how animals are farmed and maintained. The RV was clean and spacious for our needs. Had all basic facilities to have an enjoyable stay. Many thanks for making lovely memories for us Mama and Papa bears and kids ❤️ Definitely recommended 👌

The farm is a marvel, and we enjoyed our time with the family and kids very much. We also were able to milk goats and feed the piglets. The accommodation was first rate, very pleasant and the weather was great as well. The grounds were kept in superb condition, and there was a bit of a creek rounding it all up.All in all, we had a great time, coming from Toronto and going all the way to London/Ontario.Cheers,

This place was a great place to make some memorable family memories. We really enjoyed the whole trip, but I'll share some notable parts. There are lots opportunities to be with the animals during chores, and the bonus of getting to know the family. They are all so kind!We like a quiet personal area, and appreciated the personal fire pit and BBQ with the nice view.The lodge is gorgeous and good quality. The beds are very comfortable!I would definitely suggest bringing some rain boots for walking around the animals.

We had such special encounters being up close and personal with the animals, and we were treated with so much warmth and kindness by the whole family. The property offers the perfect balance, plenty of privacy when you want it, but also wonderful opportunities to connect with others and with the animals.The facilities are top-notch, and there are so many ways for the whole family to get involved and enjoy the experience. It was incredibly relaxing, and we would highly recommend it to anyone! It’s worth the drive no matter where you’re coming from! I can only imagine how stunning it would be in the fall!Thank you to everyone in the family for making our stay so special!

We had an amazing stay at Jireh Hill Farm! My husband and two young boys stayed in the camper trailer. It was new, clean and very comfortable! There were so many friendly animals to pet and visit (my littles loved bunny village and the baby goats!). Such a welcoming and lovely host family and Cheryl gave a great tour that made us feel right at home. We would recommend this mini adventure to anyone!

THIS.....PLACE.....IS.....AMAZING!!!! We (2 Adults, 3 year old and 11 month old) stayed in the RV for the night. We can't thank Cheryl, John Mark and their family enough for not only welcoming us onto their beautiful homestead but also into their family for the night. Immediately upon arrival when you enter the beautiful front gate you're welcomed by the Alpacas, Goats, Cows and their 3 beautiful dogs. Right after, Cheryl arrived to give us the run down and tour of our RV. We then met up with John Mark and got a tour of the property. From the start we got the vibe that being involved with their day to day activities was encouraged; ensuring they had our number to make sure we knew what was going on (they will txt you when things are gooing on). The RV overlooks one of the animal enclosures, with a private picnic table, fitepit and chairs to enjoy the outside time. A BBQ was included at the RV that made dinner execution easy. The RV was beautiful and spotless, with plenty of room, however, you won't want to stay in there much. Their property is amazing and you can explore every inch of it. 2 play sets for the kids (one is further back, so see that on your family walk). You get to be included in the day to day activities to care for all their animals. At night, jump in an outdoor volleyball game with the family or maybe catch one of their lovely daughters playing guitar around the fire. Our son can tend to be shy, but he opened up to all of them because they are just that nice. We enjoyed a beautiful fire at sunset right at our RV (the cabins have the same set up too). Leave the windows open or use the AC at night. We slept great. RV is stocked with all the dishes, utensils, etc you'd need. Even pods for the coffee maker were provided. I could write a book on the joys of stay on this property but honestly, words don't do it justice. Just go and see for yourself.Thanks again Cheryl, John Mark and family.A sincerely happy family!

My daughter recently visited Jireh Hills Family Homestead with her grandparents Paul and Andi and had the most amazing time! The owners were so welcoming, and their daughters truly made the experience unforgettable. They were knowledgeable, kind, and so eager to include my own daughter, showing her how they do their daily chores around the farm. It was amazing to hear her stories about how she cared for the animals and the hard work behind farm life. She left with a new love for farming and, even more special, a new friendship. We can’t thank the family enough for such an authentic and inspiring experience — it’s one she’ll always remember.

This was our second visit to Jireh Hills Farms with my grandchildren, and it was just as memorable as the first! Cheryl, John Mark, and their daughters go above and beyond to make every child feel special. Each animal is introduced by name, and the stories shared make the experience feel personal and engaging.From grooming, cuddling, and feeding goats to the excitement of milking them, the hands-on activities were amazing. The kids also loved spending time with the alpacas, bunnies, and more—and were thrilled to have the chance to look after two bunnies overnight! Morning and evening chore time gave them the chance to help feed and care for the animals, which they absolutely loved. Special thanks to Ruth Ann for her patience and guidance as the grandchildren took their time learning to milk the goat!Evenings were just as special, with nightly bonfires adding to the fun. The kids also enjoyed playing and spending time with Myra and Victoria, which made the stay feel even more like home.The cabins are spotless, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything we needed.The grandchildren hated to leave today, as there was still so much more they wanted to experience. They’re already asking when we can return! Jireh Hills Farms is truly a wonderful place to make lasting memories. Highly recommend.

A group of us visited to attend a soap making workshop. It was a fun, learning experience! The grounds were beautiful. We got to meet Cheryl and John Mark with a few of their daughters. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend a visit!And… we came home with our own goat’s milk soap creation!

We stayed at Jireh Hills for two days and absolutely loved it! The place is peaceful, beautifully kept, and the hosts were so kind and welcoming. It was the perfect little escape—our kids had a great time, and we really appreciated the fresh farm atmosphere. Definitely a spot we’d come back to and recommend to others looking for a relaxing getaway close to nature.

Jireh Hills Farm is such an amazing place! We spent the weekend there with our 3 year old daughter and she loved every minute of it. Cheryl and her whole family are so welcoming and kind. We did a farm tour to see all the animals as well as watched the daily chores. We definitely recommend Jireh Hills Farm for family getaways!

Jireh Farms was a dream come true! My family loves animals and we all felt like we had special moments, holding a baby goat, hand feeding bunnies and pigs, watching baby ducks take their first swim. The farm felt relaxed but active with a positive energy that made our time fly by even though it was packed with memories.

Such a special place for the weekend with the family or a day visit for one of the tours. Cheryl and her family are warm and wonderful hosts. We stayed for the weekend in the RV overlooking the alpaca and goat pen and had a tour. It was magical and the perfect place for the kids (9 and 11), lots of room to run and play. They got to help with chores, pet and feed the baby goats, piglets, horse and baby bunnies. Also learned a lot about the animals and farm from Cheryl and her daughters. Highly recommend a visit to this farm for a tour and to stay in the RV or one of the cabins.

My daughter and I did their spring session of farm school and it was an incredible experience with so much learning and fun. Their family is so kind and they are great at getting everyone involved, excited and comfortable around all the animals. I would highly recommend!!I also did the advanced soap making class with Cheryl and not only was it so fun, but it was so well organized and hands on, I feel excited and comfortable to start making my own soap!

We had the most fabulous family gathering at Jireh Hills Family Homestead with an overnight stay. We opted for the farm tour, which did not disappoint. If you are looking to spend a day or a weekend with your children and/or grandchildren, this is a must. The hosts, Cheryl, John Mark and family were amazing, informative and a pleasure to be around.

We had a wonderful overnight stay at Jireh Hills Family Homestead with our toddler. The family was incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. We loved getting up close with the animals, and they took the time to teach us so much about them. It was a fun, relaxing, and educational experience—perfect for families!

Although we only stayed one night, we had the most wonderful time! We stayed in one of their newly constructed lodges. It was spacious, clean, cozy and had everything we needed for the two of us. The farm is lovingly run as a family and every one of them made us feel very welcomed. We also booked a farm tour, where we learned a lot about the farm animals, and their experience of building this farm from nothing. We especially learned a lot from their children, who you could tell loved the farm life and was a wealth of knowledge when it came to the animals that they loved! We got to help and watch many daily farm activities and feedings. Holding a baby goat was my favourite part and getting nose kisses from their alpacas. We also ordered lunch and dinner in the lodge and both were delicious! Both meals were sourced locally and you warm it up when you're ready to eat in your lodge. Truly enjoyed our time here and would love to visit again! Thanks again!

We can not recommend this farm enough! We got to cuddle baby goats, feed baby piggies, cows, alpacas, ponies, bunnies and chickens. The whole experience was educational and the family was very sweet. We ended the afternoon with a fire, hot chocolate, smores and hot dogs. We cant wait for our next visit!!!

An experience you will never forget, we are a family from Saudi Arabia, with our two daughters, Diala and Eva, they loved the farm and the caravan as well, it was fully equipped, comfortable and clean, and the farm staff were very friendly, it will definitely not be our last time visiting them, God willing. Thank you very much.

A welcoming and immersive experience awaits you at Jireh Hills. Your hosts, Cheryl, John, and family went above and beyond to ensure our animal encounter with the goats was truly memorable and informative. We arrived to newborn goat kids and were amazed at how friendly and gentle the goats were. I highly recommend visiting and hope to return to stay in one of their lodges.

We had an amazing afternoon with Cheryl and the baby goats! She surprised us with a newborn goat that had just been born, which made the experience even more special. We spent time with the animals, enjoyed hot chocolate by the pond, and learned so much. Cheryl’s kids were incredibly polite and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back—maybe even for an overnight stay next time!

Our family, including our two boys had an absolutely unforgettable two-night escape at a Jireh Hills farm. It was the perfect opportunity to slow down and breathe in the fresh air.Our boys absolutely loved the animals, especially the goats, and their excitement went through the roof when we saw the two brand-new baby goats on our last day .John Mark and Cheryl, along with the whole family were incredibly welcoming and made our stay truly special. Their passion for the farm and willingness to share their knowledge during our stay, from goat milking to meeting the sweetest baby cow, was a highlight for us and for our boys . I never write reviews, but this was a truly special experience.Thank you

Jireh Hills farm left a special place in our hearts after spending one night in their extremely well built alpaca lounge. This is owned by An impeccable family who ensures that you are also part of their family during the time you are spending there . The farm is extremely clean while the animals are given the best care . From the unique pony ride experience to getting upclose with all the farm animals during the chores, We throughly enjoyed our stay and we would definitely be going back to stay for extended nights !

Our second time staying at Jireh hills and our 3 year old had tons of fun.. we tried out their RV glamping experience this time and it is a great addition to their already wonderful experiences. Thank you very much to John and Cheryl and their wonderful family for sharing their amazing family property for others to enjoy as well.

Our family had the most wonderful time visiting the homestead and enjoying the pony encounter, among other first time farm experiences. The host family are absolutely wonderful people and did a splendid job teaching our kids and letting us meet all the various animals… especially the baby bunnies. On the chilly day, having hot chocolate by the warm campfire was an extra treat that really capped off a perfect day. Thank you so much for hosting us!

I highly recommend visiting Jireh Hills for their workshops (or even the farm stays - it’s so beautiful there). John Mark and Cheryl are very knowledgeable and skilled in sharing their knowledge. My fiancé and I attended the Harvest to Hanging workshop about raising beef and preparing it to hang. I learned so much and loved the experience!!Thank you Jireh Hills!! 😊

We chose Jireh Hills because my 3.5 year old grandson loves cows and all things farm. From Alpaca kisses, Bernie and Blossom pets and goat cuddles to sledding at dusk, smores at the firepit while snow falls gently all around and deer passing frequently through the nearby fields- definitely the right choice. The Charleton family included a chatty, eager 3.5 yr old whenever possible and made a lot of dreams come true.

We had a really great time! My Mom couldn’t stop raving about how lovely Cheryl is and how nice it was to see her farm and animals. My daughter spent the entire drive home trying to figure out how we could start our own little farm too so I’m sure she’ll be back with friends to meet all of their spring babies! :)

We absolutely loved our stay at Jireh Hills! Our family of four (two adults, a five-year-old, and a three-year-old) stayed for one night. Cheryl and her family were so incredibly welcoming, and we felt at home from the first moment.We took the cheese class and the farm tour, and both were amazing. The cheese was delicious and a little addictive - we just couldn't stop eating! The kids loved getting to visit with the animals. It was a lot of fun to help out with the morning farm chores, too.The lodge was super comfy, well-built, and well-maintained. The bunk bed was awesome. We really had everything we needed inside.We would give 6 stars if we could!

Just back from an amazing 3 day stay in the Sleepy Goat Lodge at Jireh Hills.Cheryl and John Mark are absolute super hosts, taking care of any minor need.It is a breath taking property with immaculate facilities.There is so much to do and see at the farm from the cows, goats, alpacas, ponies, pigs, chickens and bunnies.But the true highlight was spending time with the hardworking daughters who care for the animals during their daily chores. They were extremely welcoming, kind, and generous with their time which allowed for an exceptional up close and personal farm experience. Our 3.5 year old can’t wait to go back!

We were looking for a getaway where our toddler could be entertained and we could relax...Jireh Hills Family Homestead was the perfect escape for our family. Cheryl and John Mark made us feel at and home and very comfortable, spending time with us and making sure we had a great experience. We were able to observe their daily chores and were given lots of opportunities for interactions with the animals on the farm. A highlight for our daughter was bunny village. Accommodations were very comfortable. Highlight for us adults were the peaceful star filled evenings around our campfire.

We stayed two nights at Jireh Hills with our three granddaughters. We all had the best time. The family were so welcoming and informative. Our girls were invited to take part in all the animal chores which they loved. The RV was a fantastic accommodation for us with plenty of space. Thank you all so much - hopefully we will be back.

Grandchildren visited Jireh Hills this past Friday. It was their first time on a real farm. I chose the goat snuggling with a small farm tour as an option. Cheryl, an owner took her time with them, being patient and explaining the animals they interacted with.
Cheryl is so knowledgeable,not only about the animals on the homestead,but soap making,cheese making, home schooling plus other interests.
My daughter wants to eventually spend a night in their little cabins.
This was so worth the cost. There are a number of options to choose from. Next visit will be alpaca walks.
Thank you very much Cheryl and Jireh Hills for an unforgettable day for my daughter and grandkids.

We had the most amazing experience at Jireh Hills!! Cheryl and her family are the most wonderful hosts! We spent the morning cuddling brand new baby goats and playing with some of the older ones as well. Cheryl and her daughter were so great at passing on their knowledge of all things goats and we learned so much! We went as a group and my 10 month old daughter was with us as well - the goats were SO gentle and sweet with her! The farm is great for all ages! Jireh Hills is truly a gem of a place to visit!! 🐐

My bridal party and family brought me here for my bachelorette and we had the BEST day!! If you are looking for a way to de-stress before your wedding & bond with your girls in a fun, kid-friendly (i have 3 breastfeeding bridesmaids!!) and heart-filling way, this is the place to do it!

Between snuggling days-old baby goats to running around with the big ones, cuddling ducklings and chickens and learning SO much, we couldn’t stop talking about wanting to come back soon before we even left.

I can’t wait to try my goats milk soaps, the smell AMAZING 😍

Thank you for making it such a great day at Jireh Hills Family Homestead! We WILL be back and it can’t come soon enough! 🐐

Our family was blessed on Victoria Day with a visit at Jireh Hills Family Homestead. My 13 and 11yr old loved it!!
The entire Homestead family was welcoming and spent time showing us everything their farm had to offer. We spent time snuggling the goats 🐐 and seeing all of the newest baby goats in the nursery. We each got to feed them a bottle! The goats were definitely the highlight of our time spent. We had a tour of the other animals on the property, walked through the lovely Carolinian forest, admired the ponds and creeks and finished with a campfire with roasted hotdogs and marshmallows. Our visit ended with some wonderful goats milk soaps to take home and some beautiful “Easter” coloured fresh eggs from their coop.
We will definitely go back and I look forward to the overnight cabins they are adding!

We had such a fun time at this beautiful family homestead. Your family is so warm and welcoming that we felt we were with friends. You were so educational about the animals and my son absolutely loved hugging and playing with all the baby goats and interacting with the alpacas, rabbits and horses. We learned,laughed and felt so much love from all the animals. My son Bentley , will always remember warming up a baby chick after a swim. Your families hospitality was so warm and inviting. Thank you for the special Mother’s Day date you provided for my son and I.

We got to witness one of the goats, Maple, have her triplets which is a rare opportunity for our kids to see. It was so treasured and something I hope they remember. Highly reccomend and we will deffinately be going back later to see updates on the farm! Thank you Jireh Hill's family, we had a blast!!!
