We loved staying on the art farm!!! Art installations + active farm ? Count me in! This lovely property is full of imagination, personality and love—- my favorite was the jaguar sculpture next to our site. I especially loved the ducks, goat babies, and dogs. Zorro is a total snuggler! It was super nice to have a safe place for a few days. Boondockers paradise. I also loved the swing in the trees. Close to Jerome, cottonwood ands great jumping off point for all our adventures without all the off-roading. Thanks for the amazing hospitality and keep the spark alive !
Loved staying a Richard’s property! He’s super nice and welcoming. Even gave us some duck eggs for breakfast. The river spot at Beaslie flats is super close and was a great time as well
Great campsite with goats and a friendly dog. The host walked us to the river for a swim, was responsive and made us feel welcome.
I truly enjoyed this trip! I went in went an open mind and it was just as I had hoped for. I loved holding the beautiful animals and seeing the wonderful art Richard and his friends have created. Richard and his friends are such kind people and very talented! I felt so welcome and would highly recommend to those who enjoy a hippie life style with animals! The heat was rough at night but it cooled down around 11 pm and was great. Bring bug spray!!
Very rustic artistic experience. I felt safe and loved the wandering animals. I would stay here again.
