Our Farmstay (aka. Farm Stay, Ranch Stay, & Guest Ranch) is an international concept patterned after a New Zealand family farm tourism experience. Also known as a Ranch Stay , this type of vacation (holiday) is quickly becoming a solid form of Agritourism in the United States.

Farmstays allow people to stay overnight on a working farm or ranch as they begin to understand life from a ranchers / farmers family's perspective. Some people liken it to visiting an old "Bed and Breakfast" or staying at a "Holiday Inn" "Cowboy Style"! You have a bed and a bathroom but the rest is all kick 'in dirt at a real cattle ranch!

This is a real life California ranch vacation located near Paso Robles, California. Ranch vacations renew the mind and soul. This California farm experience is enjoyed by families, singles, or couples. Agritourism is growing in California and we are proud to be part of it.

A New Zealand style farmstay welcomes you into the home of a farm family to share in lifestyle of the people who tend the land. Come be immersed in the peace, solitude, and beauty of God's Creation. No matter if you come when the hills are green or golden you can be assured of a warm Work family welcome.
