19 ft campervan · With pets · I loved this place. A friend and I met there, me from the Bay Area, she from down near Bishop, each of us with camper vans. Wonderful stormy skies, distant lightning, all that landscape around us. Stacy was welcoming, happy to chat about her work and her herd; her ranch hand was great, too (didn’t catch his name), a real story teller. And the alpacas: Such cool creatures, sort of ethereal, almost alien. Loved standing quietly and letting them check me out, those big eyes and long lashes. Lucky to visit when there were lots of babies, some of them nursing. Lots of other animals, too—sheep, angora goats, llamas, chickens.
My friend enjoyed the stay, as well (she bought alpaca socks and a scarf at the ranch store), but felt the place could make the leap the from fun to wonderful with not much work. Less clutter around the glamping tent, more care to clean poop piles from the field the nights guests would be camping there, more frequent servicing of the porta potties.
