About

We are a 5 acre property in the desert south west of the town of Fallon, NV. We have lots of sand and sage brush due west of the Naval Air Station - home of the Top Gun Training School. You will find lots of sun - usually, as well as a peaceful, quiet, safe place to enjoy the beautiful sunrises and sunsets and the beautiful alpacas we love so much. We have 2 dedicated locations with 30 amp electric service available at each for a small fee. We have had truck campers, travel trailers, schoolies, and 45 class A coaches with tow vehicles come to visit. We even had a tiny house on wheels that was so cute. You can enter the property at the north driveway , drive around the back of the house and pull into a space between the house and store or into the space closest to the alpacas. You will be facing SE and will be able to pull straight forward back to the street when ready to leave. If you would like to stay additional day or two, let us know. We have been raising alpacas since 2009 starting in Reno, NV with 3 pregnant females and a 1 year maiden. We moved to Fallon, NV in January 2018 and now have 34 alpacas on our property. Our youngest alpacas - called crias- are 6 months old, Our oldest is a 17 year old herdsire. We would love to introduce you to our alpaca friends. We have a store full of alpaca products for you . The store also showcases some of the ribbons our alpacas have won at shows. Some products are handmade, some from Peru, alpacas native home. Enjoy!!!
