3 sites · RVs, Tents4 acres · Wildomar, CAAt Howe Ranch, we provide more than just a farm stay; we offer a healing, transformative experience that teaches relaxation and rejuvenation through profound connections with our gentle, trained farm animals.
Baby animal alert! Our precious little Scottish Highland calf Petunia is two months old and loves cow cuddles and bottle feeding from visitors. She has already learned to give cow kisses! Buttercup, our Scottish long-haired mini cow, along with his calf friend Flint, is known to provide comfort to visitors dealing with anxiety and stress. Whether it’s hugging or grooming them, meditating with our mini goats or flock, every interaction is designed to soothe and inspire.
Proceeds from HipCamp directly support the feed and care for our farm animals, of which many are rescues (501c and private).

SELF-SUFFICIENT GUEST POLICY
Due to our daily workload, we can only host independent guests who are comfortable exploring the listing details and utilizing available resources on their own. Please note that:
* Our personalized animal tour is guided, but guests will learn to relax around the animals independently after the tour.
* The camping stay is self-facilitated, meaning the hosts are not available to entertain or assist your family beyond the provided information and scheduled tour.
* We expect our guests to be self-sufficient and respectful of our property and animals.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to providing you with a unique and enjoyable camping experience!
