3 Peaks Sanctuary

This beautiful and remote desert area is well maintained. Nice flat clearings for camp. Amazing place to see the stars on a clear night. Epic sunrises. Light breeze but the wind was not an issue when we camped here. If you take your time on the roads and pay attention to the weather then you won't have problems. Looking forward to going back solo or with a small group soon.

Two Playas of the Mojave

Quite the Adventure!

Really unique location! My review may not be the best representation of what it's like to camp here (I only booked 1 night), and very high winds caused me to leave in the middle of the night. I was car camping and could barely exit the car due to wind, and I could not locate the toilet (at least I couldn't find it in the car using my high beams). I did not see the campground during the daylight at all, keep this in mind. The directions to the camp were detailed, and there's an 80% chance I ended up in the right spot. I arrived around 11pm. I'd recommend for others to arrive during the day and give yourself plenty of time to travel down the dirt roads. I left around 3am and took some wrong turns, but I had some of the roads on Google Maps loaded, so using that and the car compass, I found the right road again. On the upside, the stars were beautiful. Definitely an adventure!

Desert beauty!

Beautiful and secluded! Easy walk to rocks and great for dogs. Take it slow on fr"59 if washboard is a concern, harper lake road is paved 55 mph.

Tedd is super cool and the two playas was the perfect spot to watch the meteor shower. Not too hard to get to and everyone we came across were super friendly people

3 Peaks Sanctuary

Secluded, monument-style camping

Great spot if you’re looking for some secluded desert camping. You get some huge rock piles to explore - there’s a lot of desert wildlife. The drive in is a bit bumpy so you’ll have to drive slow most of the way. There’s some crude fire pits made by past campers. Only con we found really was that some past campers left garbage: glass, boxes, abandoned shoes.. It’s a choose your own spot camping area so you can always find a nice clean spot. If you’re into it, you’ll be passing the Mojave solar project on your way to the site. A massive solar compound in the middle of the desert just off the highway.
