5Clover Brooke Farm is the place to be!
This was my fifth time visiting Clover Brooke Farm and it certainly won’t be my last! I wanted to share this experience again with my family and now with their significant others. We all had a blast, being in nature with the llamas, alpacas, donkeys, miniature horse, goats, and sheep. Kate was our tour guide and she was very welcoming and made sure we had a great experience. It is such a fun experience, walking the alpacas and llamas! You leave there with such fond memories and you fell in love with these amazing animals! They now have an Airbnb and a private area for bachelorette parties and other special occasions. I highly recommend this experience for ages 10+.
5Donkey walk
My wife and I booked the Donkey walk at Clover Brook Farms. The staff was great, and we sat in a rustic air conditioned room waiting for our start time. Our Donkey walkguide was Steven. I walked Joy, and my wife walked Lee. We walked or donkeys through the farm fields that had goats, sheep, Alpacas and llamas. Very nice and peaceful as we walked and talked for an hour or so. The tour ended at the farmhouse store, which had some nice items. We will be going back!
5A Unique Experience
My wife and I did the llama / alpaca hike and really enjoyed it. The animals are well behaved and there was no spitting involved. The hike is the perfect distance and not too strenuous, winding through meadow and shaded forest trails with only minor hills. Our guide was great and we learned a lot about the animals and farm life.
1Smells like rotten Eggs at this air b and b
We stayed in the Air B and B apartments on the farm and don’t recommend. The water in the bathroom smells terrible of rotten eggs. The water also doesn’t drain in the bathroom sink or kitchen sink. The owner gave lie to my husband to put didn’t the sink to try to help the water go find and he burned the skin on his hands. We left the apt completely clean and the owner we think was upset we didn’t write a review so she made up lies saying we were messy guests in an air b and b rating which is unprofessional and surprising a business owner would do that. The owner is not friendly what’s so ever would walk by without an a hello. We were very surprised and disappointed by the experience.
5Hike with llamas and alpacas
What a beautiful farm. Kate was very informative. We learned to much. The hike with Percy and Remy was fun!
5Unique and amazing experience with unique and amazing creatures
What a unique and amazing experience this was! Kate, the guide, was so well spoken and knowledgeable. The rain did not dampen our spirits as Kate made it fun throughout. We were so pleasantly surprised that each one of us got to walk our own llama or alpaca. Photo ops were frequent and entertaining. It was the highlight of our week long trip in this ea and we would do it again!!

About The Catskills
The Catskills are forested mountains in New York State, west of the Hudson River, with waterfalls, hiking trails, ski slopes and old resort towns.
The Catskill Mountains rise north-west of New York City in a protected state park of forests, rounded peaks and deep valleys. Slide Mountain, at 1,274 metres, is the highest. The mountains inspired the painters of the Hudson River School, and Washington Irving set the tale of Rip Van Winkle here.
