This was such a great experience! First; staying in Gloria's airstream was very much glamorous camping. Hot shower, running water, all the basics. It was a cute place to stay for the weekend. Cozy and comfortable. Heat at night and fans to keep it fresh during the day. Bring some movies and reading material for evening time. Theres a dvd player and a few provided movies and books we enjoyed. The creamery was just gorgeous. It's nestled in an incredible setting - where Los Angeles Crest forest literally blends with the High Desert (think; Joshua Tree).
Hiking trails starting at your airstream lead into Angeles Crest Forest where the views are so stunning! Catch a sunset from a trail off this private land, it's worth it! The nearby hiking is spectacular as well. Devil's Punchbowl is a short drive and a must see for everyone. We hit up a few other local spots- vintage shopping, flea market and more hiking. There is a lot to do nearby.
Interacting with the goats was so fun too! Gloria told us all about them, showed us the milking process, and let us bottle feed the babies.
Gloria was an attentive and thoughtful host. We had everything we needed, and she was on top of all the details to be sure we were comfortable.
We opted into the optional cooked meals; this ended up being one of the highlights of the trip! Most of the ingredients are made right on the farm - and the freshness and quality cant be beat. The food was so delicious! Tons of flavors and creative pairings - reminded us of farm to table dishes that you might find in Silverlake or new american restaurants. We were sad to leave the home cooking behind!
This experience is one we are going to return to. We love the nature setting (there is no one else in sight!) and getting to experience that farm-fresh earthly and off-the-grid (sort of) lifestyle everyone is always trying to explore.
5 full stars here!
