Jason, a stunt man, and his wife Chris Anne, a yoga instructor, are desperate to go off the grid and move to the high country in California and they are bringing along their two children, five year old Leilani Ashanti and Brighten Bella who's two. They want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Denver and turn an off-the-grid property into a healing retreat where people can come to relax and get close to the clean air and pristine countryside. Will they be able to handle the rigors of remote mountain life or high tail it back to the safety of the city?

After viewing three off-the-grid homes, they choose one to try out. But can they adapt or will the outdoor life have their daughters pleading to go home?
