This is a peaceful campsite in the middle of North Americas largest Joshua Tree forest. There are saguaro cactus covered mountains nearby and an abundance of desert wildlife all around. Mountain views in every direction. Come explore this huge property and immerse yourself in nature.This campsite is nestled in the middle of the worlds largest Joshua Tree forest with 50 mile views down the valley to California. Mountains in every direction and sandy open space to set up your tent, trailer or whatever you're rolling with. The site is on 40 acres and is extremely private. There is 1 acre cleared out for camping, including an elevated mound with panoramic views for incredible sunsets, sunrises and stargazing. If you want to experience secluded tranquility in a lush desert setting, this is the right place. We only accept one booking at a time, this way you will have the whole property to yourself for complete privacy! Please put the correct amount of people in your booking request - thank you. You're welcome to explore the entire 40 acres. There are two of your very own nature trails - White Rabbit Loop and Golden Tortoise Trail, spanning 1 mile around the property. The trails are great for spotting wildlife such as jackrabbits, hummingbirds, roadrunners and desert squirrels. You may hear coyotes howling in the distance. There's a family of cows who visit the property. This is the middle of the desert, so please be mindful of potentially dangerous wildlife like snakes and scorpions... they are rare to encounter but are around, especially in the hotter months when they come out of hibernation (April - October). There's an outhouse with a pit toilet (there may be toilet paper in the outhouse, but we recommend bringing your own just in case). There's also a shade stucture, a slide, a picnic table and a large fire pit with a grill. Other than that, there aren't any amenities here, so come prepared and bring plenty of water! Pets are very welcome, we just ask that you pick up after them if they go on the mound / cleared area, and move it to the desert brush (we usually keep a shovel at the site you can use). Also be mindful of spikey plants, wildlife, and the fact the property is not fenced in. There is no garbage disposal, please take all of your trash with you when you leave.  Be sure to bring your own bundle/s of fire wood for the fire pit as we do not provide this. Unfortunatley they do not sell firewood at the Yucca gas station, but you can get this in Kingman or Lake Havasu depending on where you're coming from. No wifi here, but most major phone services work great. The campsite is 5 miles from a paved road, the dirt road can be sandy in spots, so you'll need to be mindful of that. The site is approximately 40 minutes to Lake Havasu City and 40 minutes to Kingman in the opposite direction. 20 mins to Area 66 UFO museum and the town of Yucca. Saguaro covered mountains just down the road from the campsite. Happy to answer any questions :)

Beautiful and unique spot!
We loved it! We unfortunately were only passing through so we got there pretty late and had to leave fairly early but we woke up at sunrise and were able to watch the sun come up over the desert which was unbelievable. Very beautiful spot and easy to find even at night! Would absolutely come back for a longer trip.

If you like being alone in the world, this is the place! I think there was nobody around in 10 miles. Nice sunset, small private open-air museum.

Wonderful quirky property with amazing vistas to just stop and enjoy a rainbow or two on my first camper van night. Easy to get to, if you don't mind a dirt road or two, and just very peaceful.

Unveiling a Secret Oasis
Nestled amidst 40 whispering acres, a secret haven awaits. Here, time slows its relentless march, replaced by the gentle symphony of nature. Abi, your gracious guide, unlocks the portal to this hidden paradise. Her warmth and wisdom weave a spell of comfort and knowledge, setting the stage for your transformation. Unfurl in this sanctuary, where worries melt away like mist in the morning sun. Bathe in the silence, broken only by the melodic whispers of the wind through leaves and the chorus of unseen creatures. Here, the world expands to encompass just you and the boundless beauty that surrounds. As the fiery orb dips below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of wonder, gather around a crackling campfire. Let the flames dance with your spirit, their warmth seeping deep within. Mother Nature extends a hand, inviting you on a journey of peace and rejuvenation. Surrender to her embrace, and feel the shackles of stress dissolve into blissful serenity. This is no ordinary escape. It's a pilgrimage to the heart of tranquility, a place where Abi's magic and nature's embrace intertwine to weave a spell of unforgettable renewal. Come, and discover your own haven of bliss!

Moonlit camping
I loved it. You can tell the host has put a lot of love and pride into the property. Perfect fire pit and the raised area where the tents go up helped provide a great view of the surrounding area. ❤️❤️ Tip to those not used to the desert (me) foraging for fire wood was harder than usual. But again I’m used to camping in the woods. 😂 I will definitely book this location again when the weather cools.
