Had a great time at Stars and Valley. I think I might have even had a clear view of a SpaceX launch streaking across the sky last night. Very surreal. Fantastic desert experience.

My dogs and I loved staying here in our camper van! Something to know is that this spot is very open, so be prepared if it’s windy! Rebecca is a very communicative host, and the site is well kept. The outhouse is clean and such a nice touch. My dogs and I loved roaming the property for sunsets and the stargazing is top notch. If you like solitude this is a great site, we will be back!

Real cool setup with camping sites, canvas tents, container rooms & castle tower rooms. Perfect location to explore Joshua Tree. There are lots of plants & lights for a very nice setup. Ryan met us as we arrived & later brought us our pre-ordered firewood & some RO water. We had 2 great nights with a huge full moon lighting the area. There was a photo sent showing where the bathrooms were, but we didn't know where the showers were or how to get more drinking water (aside from asking for it). There was water behind the pagoda, but we weren't sure if we could drink it.
We had a good stay and not many people were there as it isn't quite the busy season yet. It felt very secure with the property being fenced in with a coded gate.

Rebecca was a great host. I arrived at 1:30am and it was hard to find the location but Rebecca gave me multiple pictures of the campsite so I was able to find it. I will definitely camp here again. The stars are amazing at night.

The Shabby Shanty is the perfect spot for a quiet, relaxing camping weekend. It's just about 20 minutes drive into Joshua tree with views for miles. There's potable water, an area for cooking, outdoor toilet and tiny shower. It's just perfect for the simple camper!
