Had an amazing night here. Wish we could have stayed longer. The baby goats were so adorable and Zeus gave my partner a good, muddy hug to welcome her. 💚 We loved every minute here and can’t wait to come back again!

Rural Arizona at its finest! Lots of interesting old vehicles being recycled as living quarters and many big metal sculptures scattered around the property which is also home to many dogs, chickens, turkeys, ducks etc It was a very peaceful spot for parking my RV overnight

Off grid and laid back for families
Richard was a nice host to our family. Our 4 & 6yo girls loved feeding the goats, following around the ducks and turkeys and petting the sweet dogs. He even shared some of his home made goat cheese and in the morning let us grab a couple of duck eggs to make breakfast. Was a very memorable night for our family. Excellent stargazing with a new moon and campfire next to some cool sculptures made for a unique experience. Wish we had more time to check out the river just outside the property.

Richard was fabulous! I had a great time staying here. The animals were amazing and dogs were so friendly once they got to know you. Looking forward to coming back one day when I’m in the area again.

Upon arrival noticed a huge dog. I saw this in the photos but what I didn’t expect was the place to be double gated. Doesn’t sit well with me that a place has two gates whether you can come and go as you please.
