Stop and think for just a moment. When is the last time you sat outdoors, put your feet up, and just relished the silence? Sure, you might hear an occasional chirp from a bird, the buzz of a bee, or the whoosh of the wind. But, for the most part, it was just you and nature, so peaceful that the sharp sound of a car's engine might startle you. If you need a little more relaxation and nature, plan a getaway at this enchanting alpaca ranch in Missouri, where you'll sleep in a room in a hand-built log cabin. Can it get any better than that?

Embrace the tranquility of nature - and get to know the resident alpacas, goats, and sheep - when you check into Green Meadows Alpaca Ranch in Holden.

Settle in to your bedroom, which sleeps up to four guests, in this hand-built log cabin, the family home of hosts Melissa and Jason.

Stay in the private master bedroom, with a master bath, where you'll have sweeping views of the alpaca ranch and, access to a private dining room and the swimming pool (in season).

Of course, you can spend as much time in your cozy room - complete with a king-size bed - as you want. But, you'll likely find yourself drawn outdoors, where you can feed the alpacas, goats, and sheep.

Or, put your feet up and read a good book on the covered deck. Don't forget to chat with the visitors - a rooster or a goat - who might wander over.

And, on those warm, sunshiny days, slip into the Perma Salt pool. Spend the day on the alpaca ranch or explore the area before heading back to sleep.

Then, enjoy a fresh, delicious breakfast of fruit, hot coffee, and breakfast bars in the morning. Hosts Melissa and Jason provide as much - or as little - interaction as makes you comfortable.
