The title says it all this property is truly A Unique Mountain Retreat that will give you the peace, quiet and tranquility you are looking for. An energy efficient Uniquely designed home that is off the grid and has a very green footprint with solar and windmill to charge batteries. Oak and pine tree covered acres with fitness and nature trails around the property. Each level campsite with picnic table is designed for privacy with plenty of distance between sites and mountain views in every direction, along with an optional gas log fire pit and BBQ. There is plenty of clean, non potable drinking water, custom built toilets and optional hot showers, limited electrical use, cell phone charging and low power use devices as I am off grid. There is a fitness and nature trail on the property and Pacific Crest trail is approx 20 to 30 min drive, Mountain park which has many miles of hiking trails and an Indian reservation with hikes to many petroglphs.

Topanga Stone Cabin w/trails

6. Topanga Stone Cabin w/trails

48mi from Lancaster · 1 site · Lodging · Topanga, CA
Stay in This Stone Cabin in the heart of Topanga Canyon! The stone cabin is truly one-of-a-kind, with vintage charm, artistic details, and an earthy, timeless atmosphere. While it has the feeling of a semi off-grid escape, you’ll still enjoy modern comforts like high-speed Wi-Fi, and a medium-size refrigerator and freezer. There’s a two-burner stove for simple meals, hot water kettle, coffee and French press, soap and shampoo provided. Shower under the stars with hot water in the stone outdoor shower. A basic camping-style toilet just outside the cabin;) Upstairs, a cozy loft tea room with Moroccan and South American- inspired decor offers the perfect nook for reading, meditating, or sipping something warm while sunlight streams through stone-framed windows. Below, a luxurious queen bed is tucked behind dramatic red velvet curtains, making you feel like you’ve woken up as royalty, transported to another world entirely. It’s rustic, romantic, and unforgettable: a retreat for artists, nature lovers, dreamers, or anyone craving peace, beauty, and a little magic. Only one mile from town filled with local shops and eateries. There is a seasonal creek just below and private walking trails. You have one quiet neighbor nearby but no shared spaces other than the walkway.

Huttopia Paradise Springs

7. Huttopia Paradise Springs

29mi from Lancaster · 3 sites · Lodging · Valyermo, CA
French below - With its untouched natural beauty, fresh mountain air, and golden sunlight filtering through the trees, it’s easy to see why Paradise Springs became the perfect setting for our very first Huttopia resort on the West Coast. Nestled high in the San Gabriel Mountains, within the heart of the protected Angeles National Forest, Huttopia Paradise Springs offers a true retreat into the wild. For generations, this hidden gem has drawn those seeking to escape the buzz of greater Los Angeles and reconnect with nature. Tucked within a wide canyon, Paradise Springs is a true oasis—surrounded by vibrant desert flora and nourished by a crystal-clear artesian spring that feeds a meandering creek all year round. It’s wild, serene, and effortlessly magical—just as paradise should be. -- Avec sa nature préservée, son air pur de montagne et la lumière dorée filtrant à travers les arbres, il est facile de comprendre pourquoi Paradise Springs a été le choix évident pour notre tout premier site Huttopia sur la côte Ouest. Nichée au cœur des montagnes San Gabriel, dans la forêt nationale protégée d’Angeles, Huttopia Paradise Springs offre une véritable échappée sauvage. Depuis des générations, ce lieu secret attire ceux qui souhaitent fuir l’agitation de la grande région de Los Angeles pour se reconnecter à la nature. Au creux d’un large canyon, Paradise Springs est une oasis authentique, entourée d’une végétation désertique luxuriante et alimentée par une source artésienne qui fait vivre un ruisseau sinueux tout au long de l’année. Sauvage, paisible et naturellement magique — c’est exactement notre idée du paradis.
