Visit the farm

Come meet the animals

Meet the sweet personalities who call our family-run Catskills sanctuary home, and hear the rescue stories that brought them here.

Just about 13 minutes from Woodstock and Saugerties, Napping Horse Farm offers a little time away from the everyday. Join one of our family for a private guided visit: smaller groups mean more time to get to know the animals and make a real connection.

What to expect

About an hour

Private, unhurried and family-friendly.

By appointment only

Please don't drop by without booking first — the farm is our home and the animals' sanctuary.

Stories, cuddles & photographs

Discover each animal's story and personality, with chances to pet, cuddle and take photos when they're happy to join in.

The animals set the pace. When they want affection, we're happy to offer it; when they need space, we respect that too. Luckily, most of our residents love a good scratch!

We provide treats for the animals who can have them and show you how to offer them. Please don't bring food to feed the animals.
