Exploring Kenjelo Farm in Oroquieta: The Montero Guy Goes Golf Cart!
Sometimes, the best adventures aren’t about the distance covered or the terrain conquered; they’re about the milestones we celebrate together.
For this trip, we headed to Kenjelo Farm in Oroquieta City, Misamis Occidental. It wasn’t just a typical road trip; it was a special celebration for my wife’s birthday. As a family, we traded the usual routine for a day filled with fresh air, laughter, and a bit of a different ride.
As The Montero Guy, I usually talk about life behind the wheel, but this experience reminded me that even the most seasoned driver enjoys sitting back and taking in the view once in a while.
A Relaxing Arrival
The moment we arrived at Kenjelo Farm, the “vacation mode” officially kicked in. Instead of our usual setup, we were welcomed by the farm’s shuttle service.
We hopped onto a golf cart to be whisked away to our cottage. There’s something uniquely relaxing about a slow-paced tour across a lush property. As we cruised along, we got a first-hand look at the green landscapes and the peaceful atmosphere that makes this farm a hidden gem in Mindanao.
Our Home for the Weekend: The Barkadahan Cottage
Since we were traveling as a family to celebrate my wife’s special day, we stayed at the Barkadahan Cottage.
It’s the perfect spot for groups — spacious, comfortable, and private. Having a dedicated space for the family allowed us to focus on what matters most: spending quality time together. Whether we were sharing a meal or just relaxing between activities, the cottage served as the heart of our celebration.
Things to Do at Kenjelo Farm
Even though we were there to celebrate and relax, the farm is packed with activities:
- Adventure: For those looking for a thrill, they have a Zipline and ATV rides that take you through the more rugged parts of the farm.
- Relaxation: The swimming pool is a central highlight—perfect for a dip after exploring the grounds.
- Dining: We enjoyed the convenience of their on-site restaurant, which served up delicious meals that made the birthday celebration even easier to manage.

It reminded me that while I love the power of a Montero, sometimes the best vehicle is a golf cart that forces you to slow down and appreciate the scenery and the people beside you.
