Feel free to unwind, relax, and make yourself comfortable – we’re pretty chill about nearly everything and want you to have the best time ever. We have 5 fenced acres that you can wander. You’ll bump into animals along the way, and find some great nooks to hang out in – along with the cowboy pool, the koi pond, the meditation tree, the walking trails, and the double lovers’ bathtubs. We reside on the property and there may be guests staying in one of our other amazing places, but we find that people rarely encounter one another as it’s pretty expansive.

We understand that this may be bothersome to some guests and we provide earplugs as a courtesy to ensure a peaceful night's rest. ★ ADDITIONAL ACCOMMODATION ★ The ranch has four places that we host guests in: The Art Deco Guest House, The Antique Barn, The Star Tower, and the Floating Container. Yes! You can rent the whole place for you and your friends and have everything to yourself! It’s pretty amazing. Registration number CESTRP-2022-01155
