Wonderful warm welcome and great to spend an evening with Nancy at her wonderful ranch. We really enjoyed giving out carrots to her horse and donkey. Thanks for a wonderful stay
Nancy is a wonderful host and made us very welcome, the horse and donkey were a real hit with my children.
A beautiful and very peaceful place, loved the outdoor kitchen and flush toilet complete with bidet! The very best part was the fully fenced property so my dog could be off leash the entire time. Hannah the horse and Daisy the donkey were the icing on the cake. Absolutely loved my stay here and would return in a heartbeat!
Great stay at this lovely Hipcamp. Host (Nancy) met me nearby and guided me in which was helpful - it is up a rather obscure road. Very private, in fact was lucky enough to have the whole thing to myself. Even with another group there would have been plenty of room. Very clean bathroom and a fun, old West looking outside area. Will repeat!
Loved having the whole site to ourselves. The location is beautiful and quiet - lots of wildlife to watch - birds, ground squirrels and in addition to the resident horse and donkey. Nancy was very welcoming and gave us the full rundown as well as recommendations for coffee and ice cream nearby. A very relaxing time
