Welcome to our rustic retreat in rural Butte County, a haven we've called home since 1997. Nestled on 14 acres, our family farm offers a unique camping experience where you and your children can embrace the freedom to run and explore. Walk the property and connect with nature while visiting our alpaca, sheep, kittens, dog, and chickens. Take a leisurely stroll down a country road or stargaze under the clear night sky from the open circle of Adirondack chairs. Bask in the tranquility of this quiet country space, where fresh air abounds. Our location is a gateway to numerous outdoor adventures such as the Feather River, Lake Oroville, Lassen Volcanic Park and Table Mountain, and is just 22 minutes from downtown Chico and Cal State University, Chico. Discover local gems like the Bidwell Mansion, Bidwell Park, Lime Saddle Marina, Butte Creek Canyon, and the Honey Run Covered Bridge, all within a short drive. Paradise is known for its antiquing, mountain biking, and kayaking, and many enjoy its historic biking and walking trail along the old railroad line. Visit the Paradise Depot Museum, or the Gold Nugget Museum for a trip back in time. While you're surrounded by nature, enjoy the convenience of great cell service and Wi-Fi, perfect for streaming on our smart TVs with our fiber optic service. Should you need anything during your stay – be it a Band-Aid, needle and thread, or kitchen essentials – simply let us know. Our property is home to playful kittens and our friendly border collie, Caspian, who roams freely. If preferred, Caspian can be kenneled upon request. Escape to our farm stay and experience the best of rural living with modern comforts. Your adventure awaits!

This charming and authentic 22 foot Tiny House retreat offers a down-to-earth experience for those seeking tranquility and connection with nature.

The tiny kitchen with a electric hotplate, microwave, toaster, water boiler, and tiny fridge invites you to cook delightful meals, whether you choose to dine inside or enjoy the fresh air outdoor on the private spacious deck.

Embark on a journey to nature's embrace in Paradise, surrounded by abundant oaks and farm animals. Step back in time as you enter our fully restored 1960 Airstream, a nostalgic haven filled with warmth and comfort. This vintage icon has been modernized, offering a tranquil setting on our 14-acre foothill farm. Sleep under the stars and listen to the soothing symphony of crickets and owls. Witness the breathtaking sunrise and the moon casting its glow over Paradise. Look out of Nana's abundant windows onto pasturing animals, flocks of wild turkey, serene surroundings, and stoic oak trees. Engage in nearby activities such as hiking, kayaking at Paradise Lake, or spending the day hiking – just outside Nana's door. Affectionately named Nana after Julio's mom, who discovered this land with us, she boasts modern amenities, including Tuft and Needle mattresses with luxury linens, a fully updated kitchen and bath, dining/laptop table, TV, DVD player, fans, air conditioner, and more. Despite the modern upgrades, we've preserved Nana's original integrity and iconic quality. Her interior, appliances, zolatone wall paint, curtains, hardware, lights, shelving, and fabric coverings all maintain her original color scheme. Relish our farm by lounging on the patio, exploring the orchards and gardens, or relaxing in the circle of comfy Adirondack chairs. Unwind on the hammock or stroll the property to visit alpacas, sheep, kittens, dogs, and chickens. Take a nature walk down a country road or gaze at the stars without limits – the Milky Way shines brightly, and stars twinkle in the winter sky. An evening campfire around the propane fire pit in front of the Airstream is a relaxing way to finish a perfect day. Enjoy the quiet country space and fresh air with reliable cell service and fiber optic Wi-Fi. The TV comes with a built-in DVD player and flash drive plug-in, or you can connect it to a laptop. Feel free to borrow a DVD from our collection. For any needs or special requests, simply let us know. We love interacting with guests, whether you prefer hanging out or laying low. Our flexible approach accommodates your travel preferences. Meet our adult children, who are occasionally around, and our playful kittens and border collie named Caspian, who roams the property. Your nostalgic farm stay adventure awaits!

    We absolutely loved this cozy getaway! It was the perfect spot to recharge. Carolyn and Julio were so genuine and have made a beautiful property. We loved getting to visit with all of the animals and enjoying dinner on the patio. We both said that we would come back again but this time bring the kiddo along to enjoy it too.
