100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.
{Pack in/ pack out with option for toilet. Please inquire if needed.} Your own peaceful, tucked away desert! Enjoy the back country of Joshua Tree National Park at this private property that’s steps away from the park boundary and overlooks it from several ridges. Surrounded by more than 1000 acres of raw land and a 10-15 minute drive to the National Park main entrance. Complete privacy nearly 2 miles in from a gated entrance at the base of a small canyon. Walk up to the ridge for panoramic views of JT National Park, Joshua Trees, mountains and valleys highlighted with brilliant greens, yellows and other blooms and a winding graded dirt road up to your exclusive camp site. Town is just a 5 minute drive away, complete with trendy shops, cafes and more. Note: please be aware there is some year + old fire damage at the site and nearby areas but the lush drive in and views remain. 😍Your own PRIVATE, secluded desert oasis with 360 views! Updated elevated, flat, fenced and graveled area with amazing mountain views!! Great for tents, photos, picnicking, activities, etc. Restroom available on site! More upgrades to come! A portion of proceeds goes to habitat restoration and fire prevention. Come regenerate in the cooler 4200 feet elevation and foothills at the border of and overlooking Joshua Tree National Park! Located down a gated dirt road, private property surrounded by hundreds of acres of undisturbed National Park and desert conservancy land awaits you. A few miles from modern amenities and 15 minutes or less from at least one National park entrance. Enjoy overlooking the park’s northwest border from our ridge. Endless hiking and views through hills and flatlands, relaxing fresh air and an immersive drive into the property that’s surrounded by Joshua Trees, vegetation, wildlife and all of nature. This tranquil area also has some of the best stargazing away from the crowds and city lights. Ask host about contained camp fires due to high fire risk and recent fires that affected this area. There’s some fire damage left so ask for more photos if need be. Favorite us to keep up with our expansion! ⛺️

Nice graded flat spot for rv or tent. Great views & sunrises were spectacular. Quiet solitude was what we were looking for and certainly what we found! Yet only 10-15 to downtown Yucca Valley. Angela -the host was responsive. FYI-very spotty cell (Verizon).

Great secluded spot. Very peaceful and quiet. Was able to drive an RV and park on a nice flat piece of ground. The road and grading were A+. The owner was very responsive and helpful with directions. Highly recommend.

Private location
This was a great spot. It was quiet and private but a short drive to anything you need. Although the roads are dirt they would be accessible for any kind of vehicle. We found the burned areas to be interesting to explore and unlike anything we’ve been before. Levelers were helpful for our van but the host said he’s making a level spot to park soon. The host has great communication. We will be back!

Very peaceful and quiet!
We wanted to explore Joshua Tree Park and chose Tipi Canyon over staying at a campground in the park because of its privacy and we couldn’t have been happier with the choice . We had the whole canyon to ourselves, didn’t see a single other person, the days and nights were very quiet but it was just a few minutes from town . The canyon had a fire a while back so it’s not lush but that didn’t bother us . We plan to come back again next time we go to Joshua Tree .

Enjoy the Silence
If you want to feel like you have the desert all to yourself--this spot is for you! You're guaranteed to fall in love as soon as you enter the gate and begin the drive in. This Hipcamp is surrounded by thousands of acres of open land, so the only things you'll see are wildlife, views for days, gorgeous sunsets, and Joshua Tree's infamous starry sky. We had the most relaxing time at this spot and will definitely be back soon. The host had excellent communication skills and, depsite being secluded, the spot was extremely easy to get to. For those who might be scared off by the term secluded, don't worry. This spot has the best of both worlds--it's peaceful yet still close to town. Highly recommend!
