1. The Farm at Walnut Creek
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 331 reviews
At The Farm at Walnut Creek, you will find both a unique and educational experience for the entire family. On your visit, you will have the opportunity to view and feed 650 domestic species as well as animals from six different continents – buffalo, llamas, giraffes, deer, elk and much more. Enjoy hand feeding these animals from the comfort of your own car or take our leisurely horse drawn wagon ride with our experienced Amish guides. Also, plan to visit our barns - all built to resemble a working Amish farm. Depending on the season, you can experience plowing, thrashing, sowing seeds, growing produce, canning, milking, quilting, and baking. Be sure to take a stroll through our non-electric farm houses, the produce stand for all of your fresh produce needs, and don’t forget your camera to capture the memories. Be sure to ask questions of our Amish staff - they'll be happy to explain. We recommend you budget about 2 to 3 hours for a visit to The Farm.

My granddaughter and I spent a hot August day here; next time we'll come earlier in the morning. Our wagon tour guide - an older man - was beyond excellent ... a good sense of humor, informative, encouraging about feeding the animals along the way ... and just superb!! We then walked around the beautiful property - saw the other animals, walked across on the covered bridge, walked thru the house; and my granddaughter even continued to feed the curious - and hungry - goats. It was a memorable day; and will be a "repeat" if we're back in the area!! I thank the women in the Craft Mall at Schrock's Village for recommending it!

Stopped by here on our way back to where we were staying. Was not expecting much when we went in. David Wurther carves historical sailing ships out of ivory. He comes from an amazing carving family, as his grandfather has a great collection of carved trains in a museum not far away. David does an outstanding job of researching, planning, and carving each ship exactly to scale. The tour guide we had was extremely knowledgeable about all of the 91 ships on display, including the first one he carved in high school. When she left for lunch, David came out and continued the tour with us himself. At the end, he showed us how he makes the riggings for each of the ships using a tool that was handed down to him. It was amazing to see the detail in each of his creations and the effort to recreate each vessel.

Sugarcreek's record holding cuckoo clock is something that shouldn't be missed if you're in town. Clock chimes on the hour and the half hour...if you miss it exactly, spend some time looking through little shops in town...there is a neat gift shop, called Kaleidoscope, and a small bakery that you can always check out.

From the reservations to the dinner to the show everything was quality. If you do the dinner prior to the show you have 3 locations you can pick from. Seating started at 6:30 and show at 7:00. Sound system is excellent and seating very comfortable. The show was fantastic. Will be returning for future shows!
