Our family has owned this property for nearly fifty years. We currently have one site available - “Desert Mountain Scenic Overlook” - at this time. More sites coming soon! Learn more about this site: This campsite is extremely private and serene with beautiful epic views and a wide open feel. The site is located most of the way up a small mountain but at the base of a larger one if you want to hike up to the top for even better views. You can also hike down and around to explore more of the surrounding nature preserve (over 3,000 acres completely engulfing our 20 acre property), which includes a seasonal creek, granite boulders, and miles of hiking trails. You will find wild sage and buckwheat shrubs growing all over the property, as well as vibrant seasonal wildflowers. The campsite is set far back from roads so it is very peaceful and quiet and allows you to feel free to enjoy yourselves without worrying much about noise. The large flat pad is spacious and should be able to accommodate any sized camper/trailer/RV. There is fresh potable mountain spring water and a septic hookup available at the site. There is currently no water hookup for RV’s and there is no restroom facility (we are planning to install a composting or pit toilet soon). Please come fully equipped with a Luggable Loo or something similar. Access to the site is on a maintained dirt road with cutouts for water run off. 4WD is not necessary. Please be prepared though, the road in has some narrow, hilly, curvy stretches. It could appear challenging or intimidating to people with larger rigs. If you have a class A motorhome and are hoping to visit, please message me first and let me know and we can discuss whether the road in will work for you. We are currently in the process of beautifying the area and will post more updated photos soon of the actual site. *Note: Our solar pump went out so the outdoor shower is not currently functional. Also, the site is still a work in progress so there may be some lumber and areas of the site still in the process of being completed.This nature-oriented campsite is extremely private and serene with beautiful epic views and a wide open feel.

We Will Be Back!
Incredible views. Serene. Well maintained campsite with lots of space. Very nice that a garbage can is provided. Secure as well, locked gate access to the farm property. Be mindful of the long dirt road heading up to camp. No issue for us in our Passport hauling a camper trailer. We will be back for sure!

BFE is the place for me!!!
Everything we were looking for! Solitude, fantastic hiking, it was like a fun adventure, and not a single human being in sight! Attentive host just a text away to answer questions when needed. I only wish there was a place to hang my hammock ;) thanks for the great stay!

Desert Mountain Scenic Overlook
no shade but wonderful stargazing
Overall we had a good experience but there are definitely some things campers should know: The drive from the road to the is rough for a 2WD or even our FWD converted cargo van. There is no shade at the site, which makes it imperative to bring your own. Unfortunately our easy-up canopy ripped in the wind. The stars are wonderful but the angle of a nearby rise/bend in the main road is such that you will frequently see headlights shining toward you from a distance. Critters are definitely all around you so be prepared especially at night. Once they adjusted, my kids loved the bouldering and exploring at the site and we left during the daytime to find cooler temps and adventures.
