Random gem
This place is very random and a bit of a gem, but if you want a place to be left alone then this is the place. Except no instructions for when you get there, and to be a bit thrown off that it is a meditation centre upon arrival. Once you get settled you are in a field that you will at some point realize is the llama/ alpaca field. They will come close to you, but they are harmless. It is pet friendly but I would recommend putting your dog on leash if you have a dog that would run at them. The highway is nearby, but it becomes white noise. There is a clean porta potty available. Apparently you can go in the house to shower, but there were no instructions so it was all a bit unknown. There is an active meditation in the barn on Sundays so you do see a bit of activity then. The stars and open field and cute llamas were nice, I’d come back again for a quick camp getaway.

Great stay!
At first, I really wasn’t sure of the place. When I arrived, the host was not there and he did not respond to my previous messages. There was no indication whatsoever, but then we talked to a tenant there and she answered some questions for us. We parked the car and we brought our tent in the field, which was really nice with the alpacas. We spent a great time there, it was really beautiful. Be careful with the coyotes though, there is A LOT and they scream like crazy (they seemed so close to our tent). But overall, I really liked my stay there. :)

Overall we had a great experience. Camping in a field of wildflowers with alpaca grazing was great! There was a lot of highway noise and train horns throughout the night. There were a few hiccups with check-in. The host didn’t reply to messages through HipCamp the day before or day of and the site wasn’t clearly marked. The potable water is not easily accessible, you need to ask the host. The picnic table isn’t in the campsite area but shared with the retreat center which is also on the property. Thanks for the stay!

Quiet at night, not for sleeping in
It was a decent place to park for the night but although the owner told me there is lots of space, there wasn’t much parking and not much for flat sleeping space for a car. Apparently there was tent spots in a field. And then at about 6am on a Saturday (I got in late Friday) there was a “music/yoga” thing really close to where I parked and the music was super loud so I couldn’t continue to sleep. Had I been in a tent in a field I’m not sure that would have been any better but who knows?!! Maybe I was in the wrong spot etc but there was a really nice Mexican dude named Pancho I think that showed me where the bathroom was and other stuff. The bathroom is inside a house so it’s not what I was expecting in a “camping” scenario. But I may have come too late to see it and I left early so I’m not too sure if there was an area more private and quiet for sleeping past 6am ;).

This listing would really benefit from improved communication.
The site itself is no frills and fine to get some rest while road-tripping, but it was very challenging to get here:
-The HipCamp quadrants take you to the wrong address with a similarly described entrance.
-There is a large language barrier with the host. Asking for clarifying directions would only make us more confused.
-even one photo of the entrance or any of the three gates you have to find would have made this way easier to navigate
However, once we found the site, it was actually quite well maintained grass with a clean port a potty.
