Enjoy camping, hiking, bouldering, stargazing, relaxing in a spacious yet private, beautiful surrounding. Contact me for pricing for all-camp booking (limit 32 people), production, photo shoots. Sorry, no drones, no loud parties or music after 11pm - my neighbors get upset. Quiet time is 11pm at camp and you can hang out up the mountain at the big firepit as long as you want. Desert Daisy is 6 miles from Joshua Tree National Park, 4 miles from Hwy 62 shops and art galleries, JT Saloon, restaurants. Less than 2 miles to Joshua Tree Music Festival, Joshua Tree Lake and Campground, the Transmissions sculptures, Noah Purifoy's Museum. Mesa Market is 2 miles the other way and has firewood, ice, water, a taco truck, some of everything, and is open til 10pm. Sites inside the fenced area are Big 6, Site 2, Flower Power Platform 1 and Fencer. Mountain Majesty 7, Lazy 8 and Snowkiss Chalet are outside the fenced area and can best accommodate small RVs and larger camper vans. Windbreaks are at all sites except Fencer and Lazy 8. Parking, firepits, tables and seating, are at each site, and most have a BBQ grill too. The Community Area - shared by all campers - has shade, a windbreak, big tables with seating for 16, 2 bbq grills with coals and basic cooking supplies in the file drawers, a 2-burner propane camp stove, solar string lights, and more. Big 6 is closest to the Community Area; Fencer is farthest. Enjoy a bouldering hike to the top of the mountain behind MM7 and Lazy 8, where you'll find a huge firepit with big rocks to sit on, and incredible views. For entire Desert Daisy booking, you get the whole place minus my owners cabin, private deck and storage RV. You'll have the Community Area, and i can offer a big shade umbrella, a big 2-burner stove with 25 gallon propane tank, pots, pans, extra seating, a hammock with metal frame, games, even a huge 16x16ft glamping tent that fits on Big 6 - at extra cost. Contact me directly to discuss. The Smoking Area is at the far tip of the land inside the fence, by the Fencer site and offers casual seating, a coffee table, incredible views and a bucket for your butts. When Fencer is booked, those hipcampers have the area for their own use. Amenities include a flush toilet, porta potty, big sink with dish liquid and scrubbers, hand wash station near both toilets, water tower with hose attached to refill the dishwashing water canister or to wash your hands, a solar shower stocked with soap, shampoo, body wash. Bring your own drinking water, lights for night, warm clothes. Firewood is available for purchase from my neighbor the other side of the mountain - ask me for his address. Big 6 is a huge 20'x20' raised platform, and is also great for yoga sessions, retreats, acoustic guitar groups, chat sessions, etc. Flower Power Platform 1 has a 10'x10' platform and a big 16'x16' sandy area next to it for more tents, parking, canopy, etc. Fencer is at the far tip of my property and is a narrow 3-tent groundcamp great for car camping or tent plus car. Site 2 has a 10'x12' tent platform, parking for 2 cars or 1 car and a small tent. Snowkiss Chalet is a tiny, Disneyland food kiosk turned into an off-grid, solar-powered glamping pod with a big double-pane picture window, porch with windbreak and seating, screen door, outdoor kitchen, big picnic table, solar shower bag, parking and more tent space. Mountain Majesty 7 is behind the shipping container and is a private groupcamp site with a windbreak, 2 big picnic tables with holes in them for your own umbrella, 3 firepits, plenty of parking, and has Caboose- a unique shipping container deck and lounge area. The native plants, flowers, wildlife and kangaroo mice at night add to the charm, and there are no mosquitos! The fallen branches of the creosote bushes make perfect kindling for your firepit. Be sure to look under your vehicle so you don't drive over any local wildlife enjoying the shade. IMPORTANT: Follow my directions pin which I send the morning of your arrival, or you may end up on the other side of the mountain. Again, bring lights and drinking water and warmth for chilly desert nights. All sites are clean, well-maintained, have incredible views and star gazing and a feeling of serenity as you enjoy the beauty of nature. It is a wonderful space. Please contact me, your Host Judy, for inquiries for production, photo shoots or all-sites booking as we want to ensure that all hipcampers have a pleasant experience.

Other things to note: You can get water at the southeast side of the property. Fires are only allowed if you have plenty of water next to it, and are strictly forbidden per county regulations if there is ANY wind/breeze. If you have your heart set on making a fire on a windy night, we do have a backup option, we have a propane fire ring for rent, please refer to the 'extras' section. Propane fire pits don't fall under the same wind regulations because they don't create embers. There is only one propane fire ring \ available for both sites on a first come basis. Our stoves and heaters use a 1-pound propane bottle (the green one). We do not provide propane bottles, but there are several places in town where you can get them and we do have them for sale.
