On the estate

Days here fill themselves

Everything below happens on the 115 acres. No reservations elsewhere, no driving anywhere.

Alpacas & farm tours

Feedings, morning chores, and the friendliest herd in the valley.

05

Wellness & digital detox

Explore miles of hiking trails, enjoy the views, go lakeside, sit by a fire pit — or simply breathe in the slower pace out here. You’ll leave with your hair smelling like campfire and your mind truly rested.
