Our Farm Store (open daily 11am-5pm) is the check-in point and has laminated trail maps for our farm and property.

Willow-Witt Ranch is surrounded by Bureau of Land Management lands including the nearby Grizzly Peak Hiking Trail which is a 4.8 mile loop taking you to expansive vistas through old growth forest; shorter loops trails to the vistas are also possible on this trail. Crater Lake is a marvelous day trip away. Biodiversity is incredible in the Soda Mountain Wilderness which is part of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument. The Monument is located at the crossroads of the Cascade, Klamath, and Siskiyou mountain ranges. Scientists have long recognized the outstanding ecological values of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument (CSNM). The convergence of three geologically distinct mountain ranges resulted in an area with remarkable biological diversity and a tremendously varied landscape.

Ashland also has an extensive trail system for hiking and mountain biking. Pick up a guide to Ashland trails in our Farm Store.

"Thank you so much for embracing us goat (and livestock) people. We learned so much from you and appreciate how much work and love you've put into the farm itself, the animals, the trees, the veggie garden, and the sustainability concept. You've done a wonderful job in educating the people on what a rewarding life should be like. You will always be the highlight of our trip.... Sweet milk comes from contented goats, and yours have the best life." –Shenorock, NY
"This is an incredibly beautiful place and we were very cozy. Thank you!" –San Francisco, CA
"This is our third visit and it gets better and better. This time we were lucky enough to stay for 2 whole weeks, what a treat. Everyone here makes you feel like you are part of their happy, beautiful family the moment you arrive. The love they exude is wholeheartedly genuine. We can't wait to return!" –Los Angeles, CA
"This is a remarkable farm, a perfect little studio, and natural locale worthy of many return visits. It is so nice to be invited into a world wherein people are doing such beautiful work. The sounds alone are a cure for modern chaos. Perfect balance of friendly activity and gentle privacy. Animals galore, bountiful garden -- to be at Willow Witt is to simultaneously look back in time at something lost, and to look forward at a hopeful, sustainable possibility."
"What a beautiful farm! We had a great time harvesting the veggies and learning about the animals. The eggs, milk and sausages were divine—keep up the terrific work!" –Media, PA
"We enjoyed the quiet mornings, showers at sunrise and playing with Izzy, the dog. Thank you." –Portland, OR
"Thank you so much for a great farm experience. From wonderful hospitality, accommodations, food, and landscape, this has been one of my favorite weekend getaways ever. We will be back and I will share this place with friends and family. P.S. I discovered goat milk is delicious..." –Portland, OR
"A wonderful, magical place!" –Portland, OR

"We had a beautiful and romantic night here in the moonlight. We hope to someday return and enjoy this magical place." –Elizabeth D., Oakland, CA
“It is rare that an Airbnb is better than the photos on the website, but this one of those rare cases. An absolutely gorgeous piece of land that has been exquisitely managed for many years by the gracious hosts. A wander through the woods here shows you what woods are supposed to look like, and getting to cradle the baby goats was just icing on the cake. You are a relatively short drive into Ashland, but we would have been content if we never left the property. We will return soon and often. The only surprise was the snow, but that is because we are from the Bay Area and had forgotten that seasons exist!” –Nicholas T.
