1 night at Vegas Glamping

This place is so great! The location is a little adventure and the area is quiet and so chill. My friend and I enjoyed our stay and slept with our tent open. Coming from the Joshua Tree desert, we get a lot of critters... not here. Besides a super friendly chipmunk, don't think it was Chippy but he was a fun little buddy to watch as he explored our space.

Weekend Trip to Vegas Glamping

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our experience at Vegas Glamping was fantastic; everything we had imagined about this adventure came true, and more! Evelina’s and David's land is beautiful and perfectly set up for a relaxing yet exciting getaway. The facilities were well thought out, making the stay comfortable and easy. The tent itself was spacious, cozy, and provided the perfect blend of nature and comfort. Every detail made the whole experience feel special and unique. From start to finish, it was a great time that exceeded our expectations. We can’t recommend this glamping spot enough for anyone looking for a fun and memorable adventure!. Evelina and David are the best hosts you can ask for. Totally recommended!

1 night at Vegas Glamping

David was a fantastic host and driver! He even remembered my dogs name on our pick up. Super upbeat and friendly. The camping was remote and the accommodations were plush. Cozy bed with a throw blanket I would love to have in my own home. The most quiet place I have ever been.

Weekend Trip to Silver Sunsets

I read a bad review saying it was hard to find - this is completely false. The place was very easy to find from both Google maps and his instructions. Nice, peaceful setting with Joshua trees all around and windmills in the distance - they look close but they weren't close enough for us to hear them. The host was friendly, as was his dog, and he even gave us some fresh eggs from his chickens. We enjoyed the stay and found it well worth it.

Weekend Trip to Silver Sunsets

Absolutely beautiful sunset and desert view, we especially loved the Joshua Trees and all the different cactus. Eric is very welcoming and super helpful, accommodating our schedule changes and giving directions. We also loved his very enthusiastic dog Una!

Weekend Trip to Vegas Glamping

Trip started off with the incorrect price. I booked, paid, planned, then get told that what I wanted was $85 more... Then discovered the tent was only 1/2 fastened to the frame, the promise of a kitchenette and coffee was smoke... and the drinkable water container was only 10% filled. Would have also been nice to have a map of hikes and things to see. We had to ask and only got the vaguest of pointed out directions. It's an adventure... but there have to be better options.
