Backcountry Camp offers primitive desert camping near Lake Mojave with wide-open space, incredible stargazing, and a true off-grid experience. It’s ideal for hikers, dirt bike riders, overlanders, and campers seeking privacy, silence, and authentic backcountry vibes—while still close enough for lake days and supply runs.
This is true backcountry-style camping: wide, untamed land with sweeping desert views, open skies, and a deep sense of space that makes everything slow down.
Days are made for exploring on foot, hiking desert terrain, dirt bike and off-road riding, and wandering quiet washes that feel untouched. The land is open and forgiving, ideal for overland rigs, vans, dirt bikes, and minimalist campers who want room to move and breathe.
When night falls, the desert really shows off. Stargazing here is unreal—no city glow, no campground lights, just stars stacked on stars and the Milky Way stretching across the sky. Campfires (when legal) bring warmth and stillness, and the silence feels intentional, not empty.
You’re close to Lake Mojave for daytime adventures like fishing, boating, or swimming, yet far enough away to feel completely disconnected from crowds and noise. Laughlin is within reach for supplies, but Backcountry Camp stays firmly rooted in solitude.
This is a place for people who want space, quiet, and authenticity—no amenities, no distractions, just land and sky.

Casita Needles: This 1925 early 20th-century charm is Needles’ Route 66 hidden gem. A little secret paradise you will fall in love with. Her imperfections make her perfectly rustic and vintage.
As a one-bedroom, one-bathroom small 570-square-foot home, I was able to create an illusion of the space being larger than it is. Furniture, appliances, big and small touches, were all measured to fit this space perfectly.
My intention was to create a cozy home away from home experience, with all the amenities needed to enjoy a relaxing, carefree stay.

Primitive camping! This 2 acre property is on flat, open, desert terrain and is accessed off road, so please be sure your RV or vehicle can drive off road. Located off I-40 ( old Route 66 ) in Holbrook, Arizona. No power, toilet, water, or sewage. You will need to drive ~1 mile or so off road to get to the provided coordinates.Just 49 miles away you have Castle Mountains National Park. You'll need a high-clearance, 4WD vehicle to get into this extremely remote national monument in the eastern Mojave Desert. Accessible only by dirt roads, Castle Mountains is surrounded on three sides by the Mojave National Preserve. It's the northernmost of the desert region's three new national monuments designated by the President in 2016.
This park in northeastern San Bernardino County protects 20,920 acres, located between the interstates I−15 and I−40. There are no facilities, developed campgrounds, or established trails within the monument. Backcountry camping is allowed.
Castle Peaks is one of the stars here—a cluster of imposing spires that climb skyward. The peaks are composed mainly of volcanic tuff, and the deep erosion of the rocks has created distinct, sharp summits. You're also rewarded for your efforts to get here by lush grasslands, Joshua tree forests, mountain vistas, and abundant wildlife. The rugged Mojave Desert is home to mountain lions, bighorn sheep, golden eagles, coyotes, and bobcats.
Castle Mountains National Monument is always open, but the best times to come are spring and fall. March and April are peak times. The spring rains turn the desert into a carpet of vivid, vibrant wildflowers. Summers are very hot, with daytime temps in excess of 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

What a gem of a stop on old Route 66. We were greeted warmly by Shannon who showed us around and helped us find the right spot for us. She was very responsive to any of our questions. It was so fun to walk around the grounds and learn the history. The sunset was spectacular and the night sky filled with stars. It was so quiet at night, yes the occassional train but it felt far enough away to just be charming and it definitely did not wake us up.

We had a fabulous time. It was quiet, the stars & views were lovely, and it felt private. Yet it was close to our destination hike on the Goldstrike Trail, leading down to the Colorado river. Boulder city is about a 20+ minute drive. And best of all was the amazing service and very accommodating Evelina. She’s a top-notch host.

The retro camper was a perfect spot for a couple days getaway. We used it as a base camp for hiking and climbing. It was cozy and rustic and very cute. Just what you need and nothing more. The outside deck with the hammock and chairs was prefect for enjoying some fresh air and a little star gazing at night. It was just the right size for the two of us for a couple of nights. Goodsprings, NV was a cool find and we really enjoyed the Pioneer Saloon that is a short walk from the camper. We can def recommend this little RV.

We thought this camper was very cute and convenient being so close to Vegas but also away from all the hectic side of Vegas. We loved the outdoor seating area/hammock. The fire pit was also a lot of fun. They even provided the roasting sticks as we forgot to bring ours which was so nice of them. Heather was also really great with providing us with recommendations on what to do and where to eat while we were there. Overall a neat experience.

Camp spot was easily driveable by any vehicle, spacious, gave you the out in nature feeling without the trouble of driving into the unknown and hoping to find a spot. It was very peaceful and quiet. They also offer use of a washer and dryer, which is a really nice option for travelers.
My sense of direction isn’t great so when I needed help to find my way the hosts were very kind and helpful to guide me. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to get away from the city and explore the peaceful area of Golden Valley.

I had a wonderful HipCamp stay at Goffs Schoolhouse, right along historic Route 66 at the Mojave Desert Heritage & Cultural Site. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived.
The setting is truly special; wide open skies, a stunning desert sunset, and a peaceful sense of history all around you. Exploring the grounds was a highlight, with fascinating museum objects and artifacts that really bring the area’s past to life.
The bathrooms were clean and well maintained, and the signage is helpful. You can hear the trains passing by at night, but honestly, it didn’t detract from the experience at all. I enjoyed one of the best sleeps ever, and with a pair of earplugs, it’s no problem whatsoever. Overall, this was a unique, comfortable, and memorable stay, and I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind desert camping experience on Route 66. :)
