PLEASE KEEP IN MIND ALL THESE DETAILS BETORE BOOKING!
The tiny home is comfortably made for a couple. A queen and full size bed can technically fit 4 people but be aware of the space available.
The tiny home has a composting toilet in it. It's very simple to use and does not give off any kind of odor. You do not have to worry about cleaning it for any less than a 4 night stay, we will take care of it after checkout.
The water sometimes could have a very slight sulfur smell to it. Not always but be aware anyways! It is also great for the skin!!
There is no kitchen table in the tiny home.
There are no blinds on windows off ground level!
We only make the top bed for more than 2 guest or when requested so if both beds are needed please let us know and we will happily prepare both.

If celebrating a special event like anniversary, birthdays, dates, etc.… we do offer package setups for arrival for an addition purchase. Just reach out to us ahead of time, we need a two days notice.

About the host
Hosted by Robert
I was born right here on this property. Life took me elsewhere as I served in the military for 15 years. My father decided to sell the place and as I was transitioning out of the military my wife and I knew buying it was an opportunity that would fit our next chapter in life. We bought the farm with a vision to restore it and breathe new life into it—not just for us, but for our children and the future we’re building together.
For our family, there's nothing more important than being together. That's what guides everything we do. We homeschool our kids and use each day as a chance to teach them lessons that go beyond books—lessons about hard work, nature, community, and the deep joy that comes from living a life rooted in purpose and connection.
Opening our farm to guests is one of the ways we’re able to make all this possible. Welcoming wonderful people here not only helps sustain our way of life, but it allows us to share a little piece of the peace and magic we’ve found in this place we've always called home.

What makes this property unique
We didn’t just build a tiny home—we created an experience. Nestled on our peaceful farm, our tiny home is more than just a place to stay. It’s a place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and feel truly welcomed.
From the moment you arrive, you're not just a guest—you’re part of the farm. We personally welcome you and invite you to join us for a unique hands-on tour. You’ll get to guide your very own alpaca as we explore the farm together, sharing stories, answering your questions, and making sure you feel right at home.
It’s our time, our animals, and our way of life—shared with you. Whether you’re sipping coffee while watching the alpacas graze or just enjoying the peace and quiet, you’ll leave feeling like family.
Come stay with us, not just for a night, but for a memorable experience.
