Windrush Alpacas

1 site · RV25 acres · Clovis, NM

Enjoy our peaceful location, alpacas, beautiful sunsets and stunning night skies. Over 30 friendly alpacas are waiting to meet you - well maybe we have one grumpy one! The road to our farm is paved. Our driveway is crushed caliche rock. Our gateway is 17 feet wide. For longer vehicles we suggest entering from the north end of our road as the turn will be less tight. Once on the farm there is plenty of space for you to drive your RV to turn it around along with a flat pull through field area to camp on. We are just minutes off Highway 60/84, about 6 miles from the center of Clovis and 7 miles from Cannon Air Force Base. Check out the Rock and Roll Museum in Clovis or the Blackwater Draw Museum in Portales. IMPORTANT NOTE RE GETTING GOOD DIRECTIONS TO OUR FARM: Our address confuses GPS systems and apps resulting in people getting sent to the wrong place (and the wrong place varies depending on which GPS system or app you are using). We strongly recommend that you go to Google Maps and put in our farm name Windrush Alpacas and get directions to our farm using our farm name. If you want to get good directions and not get stuck trying to turn around in an unknown location, we suggest you follow our advice! This is basic camping (no hookups, water or onsite showers or toilets) but how often do you get to camp with alpacas nearby! Our horse Sabre, barn cat Brutus and other animals will be happy to meet you too. Please note the reservation is only for the people who have reserved the site, please do not invite other people to join you. In the interest of maintaining the quiet of the farm for other guests, our animals and ourselves no large crowds or parties please! Excessive noise, drinking or any drugs will not be tolerated and will result in you being asked to leave. Pets (well behaved and on leash) are welcome we just ask that you respect the other animals on the property and don’t allow your pet to get to close to them if they seem upset. We do have two dogs of our own on the property but they will be either in the house or back yard during your stay. Please pick up after you pet and be prepared to take pet waste and trash with you. Children are welcome at the farm but must be accompanied by an adult at all times. We have a variety of equipment on the farm as well as the animals and we don’t want anyone getting hurt. Please understand that we are not here to occupy or babysit your children (hate to have to say that but unfortunately some people think we are!) While you will be able to see the alpacas in their pens, please do not open gates or enter the pens unless we are with you and tell you that you can do so. We have free range chickens and guinea fowl that might be right outside your door when you go outside, so please bear that in mind. We are very dry and very low on water in this area so while propane grills are okay, we unfortunately cannot allow any campfires or other naked flame setups. No dumping ash or cigarette butts on the ground please, we don’t want a fire! We also request that you don’t dump any fluids from your RV on the ground. Quiet hours (no generators) are from 10 p.m. to 6 p.m. Please treat our property with respect and be mindful of other guests who are staying at the farm. This is a location that people visit for the peace and serenity and we want to be able to continue to share the farm with other guests We have a small gift shop featuring alpaca related products and products made from alpaca fleece (socks, hats, gloves, scarves, rugs, yarn etc, - if you haven't tried alpaca socks for hiking or camping you don't know what you are missing!) We also have farm fresh eggs and local raw honey for sale when the chickens are laying and our friend’s bees are producing. Just let us know if you are interested in visiting the gift shop and we will coordinate a time for you to do so. We have hosted many RV guests over the years and love to meet people. Many of our guest comment on how well they sleep at the farm. If you are at all unsure about anything concerning your stay please contact us in advance so we can put your mind to rest. We want your visit to the farm to be relaxing, restful and enjoyable. We look forward to meeting you!
