Site 2 - Mountain Bird Alpine Desert
Good choice!
The site was great and the hosts were friendly. It's about an hour away from the dunes but honestly I more enjoyed the nearby bat cave and the amazing view of the stars at night. I would suggest bringing some fire starters or small kindling. Plenty of fire wood provided if you want to buy it, but not much small stuff to get a fire started.

Site 2 - Mountain Bird Alpine Desert
Paul was a great host. The directions were easy to follow and he met us at the gate. The 360 views were breathtaking! Paul provided us with ideas for our stay in the area and it was nice to chat with him for awhile once we arrived. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area.

Peaceful space!!
What a wonderful spot. So much to do around this location, private, safe, quiet space. I felt so peaceful camping by myself here and look forward to coming back with the family. Highly recommend!

Site 2 - Mountain Bird Alpine Desert
Perfect Weekend Getaway
We loved camping at Mountain Bird Alpine Desert! It is so peaceful and the views of the mountains are unmatched. We came here for our first camping trip after buying our travel trailer and the setup was perfect. Being new to owning a travel trailer, we have a lot to learn and Paul was more than willing to lend his insight and help answer any questions we had. He and Robin were amazing hosts!

Great experience tent camping on Paul’s land! Property was well kept, he gave very clear instructions for check-in, and even offered some recommendations and insights for trails and local sights. I would definitely recommend this site!
