About
This working alpaca farm spans 35 acres of rolling hills just 30 minutes west of Minneapolis, offering easy RV access and a peaceful rural retreat. Guests consistently praise the welcoming atmosphere and the opportunity to interact closely with the alpacas and llamas, from petting and feeding them to watching the morning feeding routine. The property provides level gravel parking with convenient electric and water hookups, creating a comfortable base for exploration of the beautiful Minnesota countryside.
The on-site farm store showcases high-quality alpaca wool products, including yarn, clothing, and handcrafted items, with many skeins featuring the name and photograph of the individual alpaca they came from. Visitors often find themselves spending more time browsing than anticipated, drawn to the exceptional selection and craftsmanship. For those interested in learning more about alpaca fiber, the farm offers educational experiences such as lessons in fiber felting and insights into how alpaca wool differs from other natural fibers.
The experience extends beyond the animals themselves—guests enjoy quiet, peaceful evenings with opportunities for campfire gatherings, morning coffee while watching the herd, and the gentle companionship of the resident dogs. The private setting ensures minimal disturbance from farm operations despite being an active working property. Families particularly appreciate that children can participate in light farm chores and have safe, memorable encounters with the animals in an intimate barn setting.
Fresh eggs from the on-site free-range chickens are available for purchase, and nearby recreational opportunities include a dog park located just a mile away for guests traveling with pets. The combination of genuine hospitality, direct animal interaction, and a curated shopping experience makes this location a memorable stop for travelers seeking charm and authenticity in the Minneapolis area.
