I love that we have so much pristine desert right here in LA County. It’s a true treasure. Many of my fellow Angelenos don’t realize that you don’t have to drive far to get the full desert experience. Learn more about this land: This huge 40 acre property has the best of both worlds, as you'll feel away from it all while still being relatively close to civilization. The property is completely undeveloped (no houses, structures, etc.) and is in its pure natural state. Pitch your tent anywhere on this pristine piece of the Mojave Desert and you will be connected with nature. A wash runs through the property, so water for trees is not too far below ground and this property is one of the few in the Antelope Valley to have shade trees. The north edge of the property is bordered by Palmdale Blvd, making the property easily accessible. Palmdale Blvd is also where you’ll want to park unless your vehicle can drive on sand. And if you forgot anything or want to go shopping or dining, just hop in your car and you’re only 10 minutes from the heart of the City of Palmdale, with every modern comfort. The smaller town of Lake Los Angeles is even closer, offering groceries and restaurants with a small town feel.This huge 40 acre property has the best of both worlds, as you'll feel away from it all while still being relatively close to civilization.

Site has no amenities as stated, but the desert is beautiful and peaceful—just come prepared. Host, Perry is very responsive, replies in timely manner.

The owner was super flexible and made sure we felt comfortable. The place is just a big desert sandpit. But it was comfortable and a cool experience. So bring your favorite drinks, some music and just sit back and enjoy the stars..

This was a nice empty piece of land with great view of the sunset along the mountains. It is a windy spot at sundown, but that's to be expected with the high desert. There were some nice spots to set up a camp site and you can pretty much expect to be left alone while on the site.
