Montrose Farms Alpaca Ranch

The check-in process was a little stressful. We arrived a few minutes before the 5 PM check-in time and the owner was nowhere to be found. I called a couple of times with no response before we finally found her out and about doing chores. We were able to get her attention to be let into the property. The main living area is available for guest use but has a heavy odor of cats. The rented room and bathroom are clean and the odor is much more tolerable. Once in the room, we were provided the house rules. There is no food or drink permitted in the guest room and while you have access to the great room to eat or watch tv, there is no meat consumption allowed. We also were made to feel like it was an inconvenience when we asked if we were able to see the alpacas and we ended up only seeing them from a distance. Overall, the bed was comfy and we were pretty much just there to sleep anyways. But I wish we would have been made more aware of the rules and conditions prior to booking.

The host was nice The animals were amazing The farm is beautiful The only 2 things were bad i couldnt sleep from the over powering smell of cat pee And its a bed and breakfast wasnt offered any food or drink

Was a room at a working farm. Nice experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Montrose Farms Alpaca Ranch. It was a treat to stay in a comfortable and homey atmosphere rather than an antiseptic hotel room. As an animal lover, I felt instantly at ease on the working farm. This is my preferred stop for all future trips through Brownsburg.

Visit started well. Host was friendly and we discovered a common interest and chatted for a while. I left for a while, upon return met the other guests, and another good chat lasted a while. Host and guests turned in for the night, and me soon after. I had upstairs bedroom, the other room was a common sitting room with an open computer. My event the next day was threatened with rain so I got onto a weather site to see forecast. Other reviews note cats and dogs in the house, itself not a problem. There was a strong odor of kitty litter, at the time I paid no mind. But when I got into bed, I shortly discovered cat pee on the bed, and even on one of the pillows. It being late at night, I fetched a couch pillow to sleep on and a blanket to cover the cat pee on the bed. The next morning the host and other guests were chatting. The host greeted me angrily in front of the other guests asking if I used the computer. I replied about the weather site. She angrily said she was very upset and claimed I had broken the sound (I hadn't). I eventually asked for a word upstairs, and pointed out the cat pee. Her response was to ask why I hadn't said anything earlier. I asked for a full refund and said I'd leave a benign review but was cut off there, her saying that I was extorting her with reviews. At that point I wanted the visit over and gathered my things. But she still asked if it was my habit to go onto people's computers. Property was great. But alas, I'll never be back.

I had a great stay here in the last couple of days. She was a wonderful hostess and my room and bathroom were spotless and the rest of the home is beautiful as well. I didn't get to pet the Alpaca's because I was busy so make sure you do. The only suggestion I have is maybe upgrade the mattress. Other than that, totally 5 stars.

The place was really beautiful and the location was perfect as we were at the US Nationals, Lucas Oil Raceway working and spectating. The host was wonderful, everything was great except it smelled like cat piss. That ruined our stay there.

No air conditioning in 90° weather parking dogs at 1:00 a.m. kitty litter boxes that smelled like poop and pee

The owner was rude and denied the fact that we had reserved 2 rooms. (She personally called me to offer the 2nd room at a discounted rate, but denied the conversation ever took place) A heated discussion took place, and she told us to leave her property. We both called the police, and then left to avoid any escalation. The police told us to contact Travelocity regarding a refund. The house REEKED of cat urine. Worst I have ever smelled. Disgusting. We never saw any alpacas, just multiple cats. And I am a cat lover, but I don’t want to stay where everything smells like a giant litter box!! Travelocity backed us up, by the way.

This was one of the most unique stays of my life. The home and its grounds were lovely, the hostess charming, the setting quiet and peaceful, and the room worth way more that what I paid. Meeting the alpacas (and their sheepdog guardians) was of course a special treat, but the several cats and Walter the dog inside were great fun as well. I loved the entire experience.
