Great spot to tuck in for the night

17 ft campervan · With pets

Relatively easy to find, by coordinates. Truly in the middle of nowhere. You have a desert to yourself. Perfect😁

Wide open desert views

18 ft travel trailer

Quite. Very open. Windy and wet in late March. Unmaintained dirt road washed out by rain. CAUTION: if you don't have a 4x4 vehicle and its raining, you may get stuck! Not big rig friendly! Very few spots to comfortably turn around. Some trash and discarded furniture on the road.

Real Desert Camping

22 ft campervan

Very nice and peaceful location. This location has a very remote feel to it however, you’re not very far from the town of California City. Access is easy and flat. The setting is beautiful with excellent views in all directions. Instructions and communication with host was very good!

Desert retreat

20 ft campervan · With pets

Loved it! Desert retreat! Private, very private. I enjoyed scavenging for stones to build fire pit and then scavenging for wood. Drone Heaven, awesome spot to fly...will return some day.

Peaceful and easy stop on roadtrip

22 ft campervan

Easy spot to stop on our road trip. It’s all just open desert out there, so it’s very quiet and peaceful. The last little bit is dirt road, but it was quite easy for us to drive it in our van. We were able to find the land in the dark without a problem.
