Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Gorgeous land with sweet animals! We were there on a chilly night and were looking forward to a fire, but the two fire rings were taken already. Nonetheless would stay again! Hosts were very nice!!

2 nights at Historic Ranch In Yerington

Brad is a fantastic host. We were among his first ‘hipcampers’. We got a flat on the way and had to be towed to site. Brad was very accommodating and offered to drive me in the quest for a new tire. We had a group campfire and enjoyed each other’s company. We parked on the side of a big shed and it was very private. The side is about a mile from the city which offered all the amenities. Including a RV repair and tire shop!

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

The land was beautiful and the Alpacas were absolutely adorable. There were also baby goats that were born the morning we arrived. The check-in process could have been smoother. We arrived on bikes and wandered around a bit before we were able to find a gentlemen that showed us around and let us know where we were supposed to pitch our tents. The camping area was a nice flat and open field, but didn't have any sort of shade, table or bench. The potable water was from a tap in an area labeled as "private property, keep out", but one gentleman said we could use it. However, the next morning when we went to fill our water bottles before cycling out, a barking dog came barreling towards us upon entering the area and a different gentleman was there who accused us of leaving a gate open the previous night. When asked which gate and when, he couldn't answer and then tried to backpedal. There were several other RVs and campers there coming and going, and we were sure to close the gate when we came and left, so we weren't entirely sure where this hostility was coming from. Overall we were happy with our experience, but it did have some strange vibes and we didn't feel entirely welcome.

1 night at Historic Ranch In Yerington

This spot was conveniently located and had plenty of room for RVs, tents, and even car campers like me. The host was super welcoming—he’s an author and knows a ton about the local history. We ended up sipping beers and watching the moonrise, which was a perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend if you're looking for a laid-back place with good energy and even better stories.

2 nights at L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

We loved tent camping in Stacey's land. The hosts were so welcoming and responsive. It was so peaceful with beautiful views of the night sky and snowy mountains. The animals were so lovable and curious. Every single one with its own cute personality. Loved the 20 year old donkey who loved eating carrots and apples. What an amazing experience!

1 night at L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

It was so fun to tent camp amongst alpacas! They were curious, but kept their distance. The sunrise and sunsets were gorgeous and the hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

1 night at L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Aside from everyone who worked there being extremely friendly and accommodating, this place was truly awesome. It was such a novel concept that turned out to deliver spectacularly. I had tent troubles and one of the employees lent me their tent. I highly reccomend this spot, it's an unforgettable stay.

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Omg, the alpacas. Loved the fuzzy hosts so much. This is a beautiful spot, and would repeat. Word of warning: if you’re coming through in spring, be careful with the grassy field. We got stuck in the mud and were only able to get out after airing down tires. Host was helpful on resolving, and quick to support.

2 nights at L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Beautiful piece of land to set up camp and even more beautiful alpacas! We left this site with a new respect for alpacas, they were so personable and cute! Stacey was great at accommodating us and even letting us feed the alpacas.

Weekend Trip to Flyte and Sparrow natural interlude

Great spot for my late arrival - gorgeous views the next morning when I woke up! Host was very helpful in getting me directions! I hope to return :)

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

We had a series of unfortunate events, so we did not get to stay overnight. But! We were able to come by in the morning and we were greeting with so much hospitality. The spot is beautiful and the alpacas are sweet and adorable! We truly could feel the magic of the place with just a few hours spent there. We can’t wait to return and actually stay overnight!

Weekend Trip to GoodStewards Farm

Beautiful land and family, Amy’s farm was a wonderful home away from home. If you love animals and sweeping views of mountainous valleys, 10/10 recommend. We came out with our 3 year old and camper trailer from Reno and had a blast shadowing as farm hands for a day. Thank you for opening up your space to us! It was so special 💖

We had such a lovely experience staying at the alpaca ranch. We loved spending time with the animals. They were so cute!! Stacey was very friendly and helped us get set up with a heater to stay warm in the intense wind.

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

This was a fantastic stay! The tent was perfect set in the middle of the ranch with alpacas wandering right up to our door. It was easy finding our way around and they were very accommodating with our odd schedule. Definitely would recommend.

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

We really enjoyed our stay at the farm. This was a unique experience, yet very comfortable and convenient. The views are great, animals are very friendly, and feeding them carrots was SO MUCH FUN. We definitely plan to be back.

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

I had a great stay! Mountains are beautiful, everyone is incredibly welcoming, and the animals are so sweet. Would definitely stay here again.

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Tent camping here was a great choice! My friends and I set up our tent and stayed the night and got to hang out with all the alpacas and other animals around the next morning. I would definitely recommend staying here 👍

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Stacey was the best camp host of our trip! She was very responsive and kind. She went out of her way to offer help where it was needed. My Son loved the farm and said it was his favorite campsite of our trip.

Weekend Trip to L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Everyone thought I was crazy for tent camping in February but Stacey made it possible! The property, hospitality, and animals were great! The view was beautiful!

1 night at L.Davis Ranch and Olde LYFE Alpacas

Great space for a quick getaway! I live in Reno and had a friend visit from California. Between us for this trip we didn’t have much trunk room but both love camping. Stacey had all of the essentials so all we had to bring was sleeping bags and food! Definitely would recommend for friends. There was a fire ring and we were allowed to have a camp fire with wood they provided! Perfect for winter camping!

Flyte and Sparrow natural interlude

13 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents96 acres · Reno, CA

When you come to camp here you are on a working farm in transition. Girlfarm has been a local food go to for restaurants, farm family members, and regenerative agriculture interests. Today, the farm is looking forward to a new course in agri tourism as we begin planning walking gardens, art installations in the landscape, and interactive classes. If you would like a list of grass fed meats available, veggies, or herbs just text your host BEFORE arrival. Please come visit in April May and June it is some of the most green and lush times in the high desert. It can also bring snow, winds, and rain. Be prepared- look at the forecast and contact you just directly if you have concerns We are looking for a seasonal self contained camper who we could offer trade for camp care - text host directly. Its been a huge water season so skeeters are around we also recommend tents have a rain fly and ground cloth. Welcome It was important to choose a partner like Hipcamp to invite like minded individuals who respect both the natural environment and the idea of less is more. At any time you may encounter farming activities, building out of tiny houses for future bookings, or gardens in the process of creation. As we move toward offering the land as a place to both find solitude or chosen participation our Flyte and Sparrow experience will hopefully be a place you will want to return to as your own tradition.
