We moved from our beach town tiny home to this beautiful piece of property after looking for the perfect spot for 2 years. We love the views, the boulders, the space to grow into, the space to welcome friends and family, and all the options this land gives us for our life and our future. My husband operates an agave nursery and I raise alpacas and sheep for their fiber to dye and sell. We also dabble in homesteading and self-sufficiency with my vegetable, dye, and herb garden, fruit trees, and chicken eggs. We also love that all we need to do to go on a hike and/or enjoy nature is walk outside.

Alpaca Farm Tent Camping
Private Quiet Camping
We spent 3 nights camping here. The campsite #1 is tucked back away from the house & gives plenty of privacy. There is also a small table and 2 chairs at the site. The upper campsite is visible from camp 1, but there were no guests while we were there. So we didn’t hear or see anyone. The site itself could accommodate 3-4 tents. We stayed during a crazy rainstorm. And water does pour down from the hills. So be aware when placing your tent. We bought firewood and it was placed at the camp before we got there. The fire pit is up against a big rock, so it feels safe from wind. The bathrooms are a bit far from the campsites, which only matters if you need to use it at night. It was nice to have a shower, but it didn’t have hot water. The land itself is very beautiful and it’s fun to visit with the animals. The sourdough bread was amazing too! The owners are very friendly and accommodating. Their house is far enough away from the site so it feels very private. I would definitely recommend this place. As a bonus, there are lots of wine tasting areas near by and a lake to picnic at or rent a boat. Great location!

We had a great stay! Campsite was shaded and secluded. A short walk to the bathroom and to visit all the animals: Alpacas, sheep, donkeys and chickens! Views were beautiful and it was pretty peaceful! We would def return!

The Donkeys were really cute.
Loved what Grace has provided out here. It was a real treat walking her property and the electrical line road that seems to go for miles. Would absolutely come again.

Terrific!
Our experience exceeded our expectations! We pre-ordered Grace"s sourdough bread, which was delicious. The fire ring was sheltered by a large boulder, and Grace even lent us a lighter because we had forgotten to bring one. The site felt private, yet the bathroom was not far. Our daughter loved the animals, especially the alpacas. Truly a special place!
