The property is in 2 - 19-acre  parcels referred to as the upper and lower pastures. The host bought the lower 19 acres in 1999 with only a 1000 sq/ft home and a few juniper and pinon trees. on the property. The host started planting pine and some deciduous trees as bare root stock and gallon transplants; Ponderosa pines, Austrian Pines and Afghanistan Pines(Elderica) were the main trees planted. Black Locust and oak were planted, the oak never did well and died. 

  The pasture golf course was laid out in 2002 and additional trees were planted, total trees planted were right at 3000 trees. The survival rate was about 75%. We estimate there are about 2000 trees on the lower property.

  The upper 19 acres was purchased in 2005 when it became available. There was a mobile home and a horse barn there. The previous owner were heavy smoker to the extent of tar on the walls. We stripped carpet, total painted every wall and ceiling with Kilz, and then started painting in Hippie theme. Posters and memorabilia we bought as well as gifted to us including unique furniture.  The trailer was named the Hippie Hampton, later the Hippie Hilton by I can't remember who  came up with that name, but it stuck. We changed it to the Hippie HiltInn when it became an Airbnb to stay out of trouble with the Hilton Motels. The Hippie Hilton became an Airbnb in 2020. The host removed over 500 Juniper trees and made the upper pasture a true pasture with only a 100 or so trees left, and Ponderosa  were pines planted. 

  The gazebo was an Amish gazebo kit and was erected in 2008. The main home was added on in 2007 and again in 2013. The shop with the Loft rental upstairs was built in 2013, turned into an Airbnb in 2020. The glamping rentals were set from 2022  to 2024 for additional rentals to have reunions and weddings. Weddings and reunions were dropped in 2024 as too much noise became of the events, and we did not want to disturb the valley and neighbors.

   The golf simulator building was constructed in 2013 along with the greenhouse/hot tub room. 

  The 18 hole of pasture golf was an ongoing project as the trees grew, it has sand traps, water hazards, a ravine hazard and many tree problems, it is a challenge for all levels of golf. It was made to keep the hosts short game sharp and give dopamine with his landscape hobby. 

  The fence was improved to a 7' elk fence in 2005 to keep the elk and deer out as they were destroying the newly planted trees. The fence keeps the coyotes, javelina, and other predators out of the property.

  We maintain a working pack of Australian Kelpie mix female dogs to protect the free-range chickens and us from predators and critters that kill chickens. The dogs are very friendly with people, not so with other strange pets as they take them as intruders and will do harm to other pets, this is why we have a no pet policy, safety concerns.

   The property is still an ongoing project, and takes maintenance to keep it the way it is, all done by the host and his wife. The host does all booking, cleaning and repairs on all rentals as well as all electrical, plumbing and construction. The host is a retired heavy equipment oilfield mechanic, who had a drip system and a cabinet/furniture business along with his oilfield business which taught abilities to self-sustain on property without need to call service for almost anything. 

  All landscaping was done by the owner, little by little. It is now a small forest and that was the end result wanted when designed. 

  The north upper pasture fence borders the Lincoln National Forest and access is granted to guests for hiking and mountain biking, no vehicles allowed, there is endless forest beyond that gate and no noise unless an airplane as no vehicles are let back there other than the rancher who leases the forest land. Take a hike and enjoy silence once you go around or over the mountain just north of the entry gate. Ask the host where to go, as he knows it well, its his backyard.
