I’ve dubbed the place Tranquility Base because it is quiet, serene and much like I imagine the moon to be. It is a wide open, rugged spot of stark natural beauty with amazing skies. However, you are not alone. The flora includes numerous creosote, desert senna and cactus. All bloom beautiful colors in spring. The fauna includes roadrunners, jackrabbits and incredible lizards. Evidence of snakes lay in the loose sand of the low washes but I have never seen one.

Multiple vehicles OK when at least one is an RV equipped with a toilet available to everyone with you.

There is a concrete pad from a long gone homestead cabin that is great for tents, chairs and a bbq. I’ve put a large tree stump there to serve as a “bar” or table.

This is also a working farm/homestead with chickens, a cat and a well trained GSP dog. We do get the occasional wild burro. 2. If you are bringing a pet please let us know - our acreage is NOT fenced in and there are wild animals (coyotes bears burros etc).. 3. There is absolutely no smoking on property. The area is surrounded by trees and wildlife and susceptible to spark. Again, absolutely no smoking.

2 nights at Serene! 15 min to Joshua Natl Park

I appreciated the privacy at David's camp. While it isn't a location for uninterrupted quietude, I found the noises of the area to be mostly unobtrusive. An ATV may rip through the vicinity later in the evening or night. That being said, I would visit again. It's a really beautiful setting. The sturdy table and fire ring make it feel like home.

Weekend Trip to The Sunrise Sanctuary

A wonderful stay, directions were clear and the trailer with the land was perfect for what I was looking for. Away from town yet a quick drive in, the listing is clear on what to bring and what’s provided, upon arrival there was more than expected! Definitely would book again!

2 nights at Stargazer Cabin

We loved the Stargazer Cabin. And the fenced back yard had a super fire pit area. With bean bag chairs and a nice grill, too. Also, we drove out there in our Class C RV and they even had a 30-amp hook-up and water. Very nice surprise. We would definitely go back. We’re thinking of bringing our grandson because the property is very close to an OHV area that would be fun. All in all, it was pretty much perfect.

Never made it out to the Camp Site because of some truck troubles. But Ken was super kind via text, responsive, and understanding. The spot is so affordable. Definitely hope to make it out there sometime soon!

Weekend Trip to Stargazer Cabin

We loved our stay here. The spot feels incredibly private and peaceful, with wide-open desert views in every direction. The hot tub under the stars was a highlight, and the fire pit made our nights feel cozy and memorable. Everything was easy to access, clearly marked, and exactly as described. We’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet Joshua Tree escape.

My girlfriend and I love this place, this was our second stay with Ron. We stayed at site Date Haven and it might be our FAVE site yet! Super private and it was just PERFECT. Ron was amazing at responding to our every need. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place, we will be back AGAIN!

Beautiful clean site with a fire pit, wood, BBQ tables, chairs and a light.

Weekend Trip to Magical Harrison Serenity Ranch

Vicki and her daughter were so sweet and welcoming! We had the most peaceful time and the weather was pretty great for going in December. The drive up the mountain was a bit tricky because we didn’t know what to expect, but it was much faster and easier on the way down (I have a ford fusion and my car did great!). There are restrooms and showers but they are a bit far from most of the sites, there was a porta potty close by tho:)

Weekend Trip to Mineral Spring Date Farm

I loved being nestled in the palm fronds with my pup! The tent w/bed+electricity, tub w/hot springs water, and location are fantastic. It felt surprisingly private because the managers take care in placing folks. They responded quickly to my questions and everyone I interacted with was kind and helpful. Grateful for the kitchen w/ potable water and there's rustic shower+toilet building. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Granite Mountain

We absolutely loved our stay at this A-frame! From start to finish, everything was seamless. The directions were very straightforward, making it incredibly easy to get in and out, and the location was stellar—truly the perfect setting for our anniversary. The space itself was cozy, charming, and exactly what we were hoping for. Ken was a wonderful host and sent us some fantastic recommendations for the area that really enhanced our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. 10/10—highly recommend!

3 nights at Mineral Spring Date Farm

The hot mineral water is incredible! We go to a lot of mineral Springs and they all have different minerals and benefits, but we found that Ron’s Hot Springs gave us the most relief out of any hot spring. My husband and I are nearly 70 with lots and lots of aches and pains, and it was amazing how it Soothe them all away. Ron is a very gracious host, very prompt and accommodating if you contact him for anything. Since you’re away from the road, it was very, very quiet and peaceful. We’re already planning our next day there.

3 nights at Copper Moon Camp in Joshua Tree

We loved tent camping at Copper Moon! We have 3 dogs and they can be a bit anxious and barky at busy campgrounds so this quiet campsite was perfect for us. We appreciated the remote feel and the view of the nightsky was amazing. There were 3 or 4 different firepits you could chose from and plenty of areas to pitch your tent. We have already. booked a second trip! :)

Quiet and relaxing area with beautiful view. Check in was easy. Vicki really went the extra mile to arrange rental of some camping gear for us when ours failed.

My gf and I had the best time on Vicki’s land for thanksgiving weekend. It was such a treat to have amenities like a sink with warm water and flushing toilets. the land is stunning with views from every corner and fun hiking trails throughout the mountain. vicki has such great energy and made sure to welcome everyone. pumba the pig is so friendly and WILL eat anything left unguarded at night 🤭 so make sure to treat your trash just like any bear camping setting. thanks again vicki, we hope to come back some day!

Weekend Trip to Mineral Spring Date Farm

We stayed two nights. Some highlights include the comfortable bell tent, date trees, ramen, date shake and mineral spring tub. All of this plus more made for a comfortable, relaxing, and unique glamping experience. The hosts are very friendly and responsive. We went to Palm Springs for a few hours as well- it's a short drive away. We'll definitely be back.

Ronald was a wonderful, friendly and accomodating host. The campsites are lovely and the hot tubs are delicious. Music snd talking from other campers at night made it less quiet than I would have liked.

I would absolutely recommend this peaceful retreat in the desert! Super beautiful and quiet location just 30 minutes from Joshua Tree. Loved the outdoor hot tub and fire pit. Cozy indoor space had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway.
