FlashTown is private, so every visit starts with a note

Write first

FlashTown is a sanctuary and a home, not an attraction. Airbnb and Hipcamp listings are deactivated. Some of the animals don’t like strangers, so nobody shows up unannounced.

Private tours of the farm, oceans, volcanoes, rivers and caves are by request. Tell us who you are and what you’d like to see. A request is not a yes, and the cave entrance is never part of the deal.
