Laughing Goat Fiber Farm is a working farm, raising exotic fiber animals such as
Angora and Cashmere goats, alpacas.
The fiber is processed on farm and
regionally and everything made from it is hand dyed.
Many items are one of a kind and hand made.
A small retail shop in our renovated Carriage House showcases the knitting looms that we make items on, as well as knitting machines from 100 years ago.
The property has beautiful views overlooking the Cayuga Lake Valley and Ithaca.

I almost don't want to leave a review but here goes...This place was exceptional and I really don't want this secret to get out. I would really love to have this place all to myself again. The night sky was mesmerizing and the morning sunrise was stunning. The owners are the sweetest and very responsive to any requests. The goats made no noise and went to bed pretty early. It was a magical weekend and I hope to return with friends. If you visit, please leave no trace and help keep this location exactly the way you found it!
I absolutely loved camping here! Being near the goat pen was the best. If you love animals, you will love this site. I had a very curious audience as I set up my tent! Lol
I definitely recommend the hedgerow site, it has a really nice view of the mountain and the wildflower field. Also there are goats living within the hedge that come out to eat in the morning. Lisa and her husband were very friendly and accommodating, I would return if in the area again.
