We are in the Mojave Desert, 27 miles east of Tecopa, California off the Old Spanish Trail. We are halfway between the bright lights of Las Vegas and the expansive starry skies of Death Valley. A few generations ago roamed here the Shoshone Tribe. At the same time, pioneers from the East traveled on the Old Spanish Trail which crosses our own land. Now, a few of us who enjoy the great space and silence are creating with the earth. We build comfortably, off-grid, with the challenges of unpredictable weather and extreme climate. Some of us, like me, guided by a passion to create space in and with this earth, build with earthbags and bottles. In Spring, 2015, we began building. Slowly, thanks to like-minded, enthusiastic helpers, we grow! We enjoy sharing this space with others, like You?! who also love the hum of our planet Earth, its critters, and being in touch with our own selves. Sleep in this unique, magical place, wrapped in the arms of the Earth. Bring in, take out! BE responsible for yourselves and for our fragile desert!

We spent a wonderful timechange at 3Moons! As long as you know what you're in for (read the description) your experience will be magical. You feel directly connected with the cosmos thanks to the number of stars you can see with the naked eye, it's incredible. Tecopa has great local pizza and beer if you don't want to worry about food.

Amazing, ideal, and easy to find location. The owner and others living there are Amazing people. If you don't hand much but want to camp, definitely check this place out. We will be back!

I had a wonderful stay at 3Moons! The ladies there are so welcoming and nice. It was the camping experience without needing to bring my own supplies, which is exactly what I was looking for. Plus, the mattress in the vintage trailer is very comfortable so that was great after a day full of hiking.

If you are looking for a unique spot to enjoy the quiet and beauty of the desert look no further! This was my first hipcamp stay and it was exactly what I was looking for. The site was as described and has an organic gritty feel to it. We stayed 2 nights arriving in total darkness and our GPS wasn't working. I highly recommend finding it in the light if possible. However, the host answered our call right away and even came out to find us with a flashlight. We were shown around the outdoor kitchen and offered tea and cake. It was unusual weather with high winds 50/70 mile an hour. Cold nights in March, but we felt safe and secure in the trailer. I had the absolute pleasure to be greeted at sunrise by the resident dogs and caretakers of this community and work of land. These are some of the most authentic human beings I have ever met. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for a beautiful memorable experience.

We arrived at night, set up our camp and soon went to sleep. We were awakened before 4 am to dogs barking and this did not stop for hours. I crawled out of my tent at daybreak and felt as though I was camping at Bombay Beach. It was 16 degrees colder than Death Valley. Water is no more than a trickle. I can handle compost toilets, but not a 5 gallon bucket. Just not for us, at all.

It's a beautiful place if you have an appreciation for the desert and sustainable architecture! Awesome, sunrises, sunsets and vibes. Being there in the off season was especially special because of the serenity the space provided. Will definitely be coming back!
