McMatley Alpacas is located amongst the Great Smoky Mountains in scenic Western North Carolina. We highly encourage anyone who is interested in our alpacas or the alpaca lifestyle to visit our farm to experience these wonderful creatures in person. However, we do request that you call first or email us to make an appointment so that we can ensure that someone will not only be there, but that they can give you their full, undivided attention.
