We are originally from Northern California. We are enjoying our expansive farm with all it's fresh air, fresh food, plants, animals, and fun events. We enjoy time relaxing in hammocks and letting the world pass us by. Bring your family out to enjoy all the farm has to offer, or take advantage of the serenity and privacy! Learn more about this land: Pitch your tent near the creek (site 1) in a completely private site (kids can sleep in the truck bed topper or fort if they'd like) or on the field to the side of the house (site 2) for a semi-private spot nearest to the bathroom and with a wood chip drive entrance for larger vehicles or (site 3) a semi- private spot down by the creek and the hay bales to the left of the house. (Or pick a spot of your choosing). Enjoy the farm animals, walk the property, build a fire, and enjoy the outdoors! There are more animals to pet from April through October (typically we have bunnies, chickens, sheep, cats, dogs, alpacas, miniature horses, horses, pig, goat, etc.). In the winter the horses, alpacas, chickens, dogs, cats and sometimes bunnies are available to visit. Firewood bundles available for $8.00. There is a state park (Ft. Daniel) less than 5 minutes away and others a bit further (Spitler or Sand Creek) Horseback riding may be available upon request - $25.00 per person or $50.00 per family. There is a large shaded playground in the front yard for the kids with a trampoline, small zip line, ninja line, slack line, silks, climbing dome, hammocks, etc.

Site 1- Creek Side Nook

What an awesome little site! Julie is outstanding - super communicative and accommodating! The sunsets were beautiful from our spot, and the whole area is so peaceful. Despite our spot being the most tucked away, the bathroom was not far at all. The horseback riding was a blast as well. Definitely a great stay for those who enjoy farm life!

Site 1- Creek Side Nook

Shady mostly private site close to the home. Very friendly and well behaved host dogs! Did not get to meet the host but instructions were clear and communication was very good.

Site 1- Creek Side Nook

I absolutely loved my time out at Serenity Farms! Julie made me feel incredibly welcomed, and the animals were all lovely and extremely gentle. Julie’s two dogs are fantastic! One of them didn’t leave my side. She was even leaning up against my tent when I was going to bed. It was comforting having her around. I had forgotten my bug spray, but I definitely didn’t need it. I didn’t see a single mosquito! I will most definitely be returning in the future!

Julie created a very welcoming and relaxed experience. I was tucked away in Site 1 along the creek, and it was so secluded and peaceful.

Instagram vs reality

I dont think the place is horrendous but it's not beauty in all directions. My site was next to a horse trailer with manure underneath. The large tree covered with poison ivy. The "playhouse" structure is not on level foundation and the area is over grown with weeds. The dogs and cats were friendly but they aren't well groomed or clean so we spent a lot of time chasing them away from our food. They never stopped begging. Were directions easy? Yes. Was owner responsive? Yes. Would I go back? Nope. Too many other places.
