Good Witch Ranch offers a unique desert camping experience with a mix of comfort and adventure. Many visitors appreciate the vibrant atmosphere, with standout features like the outdoor seating by the wood-burning stove and stargazing opportunities. However, it's worth noting the proximity to a nearby dog rescue which can lead to persistent barking, and some areas could use more thorough cleaning. The hosts are praised for their responsiveness and helpfulness, adding a personal touch to the stay.

If booking, know that you're booking a hipcamp moreso than a comfortable stay. A couple of areas didn't appear to have been cleaned, especially the sink. The host was very responsive initially but did not follow through on our feedback.

The host got in touch early and left her contact and details to self-check in. However the site was not what we were expecting. The place is very remote. There was only one portable restroom, no sink or water. The only table available was close to a trailer where other people were staying. We didn’t try the outdoor shower, but it looked good. We could hear the dogs barking (from a nearby shelter) but we slept in the car so it didn’t bother us. I personally wouldn’t recommend or stay there again. But if you are looking for a remote place with minimum facility it might be good for you.

I loved Witch Ranch! I booked late in the day and Tristyn was out of town. But, she graciously agreed to honor the stay and patiently walked me through how to let myself in, turn on the water, locate firewood, etc. My pup and I spend a truly beautiful evening stargazing on a cozy sofa by the fire pit. The trailers are really cool too. I will definitely visit again!

The star of the location is the outdoor seating area by the pot belly wood-burning stove. Loved it. GREAT sunrise & GREAT sunset views. The nearby dog rescue kennels were a bit loud, and the bathroom in the 1950 Airstream-like unit was unfortunately not particularly reasonable.
The hosts were fabulous. Their three dogs were attentive. The surrounding space was wonderful.

The property is very pretty and taken care of, the port o potty is super clean and the outdoor shower is so cool! I also appreciated the communal fire pit!
The only downside for me is that it's not as remote as I was hoping, which could be a perk for some people! There was a fair bit of road activity surrounding the site and the neighbors next door have a pack of dogs that bark a lot which made it a little less peaceful. Of course none of this is within the owners control, but it did effect the experience. Tent camping just may not be the best way to enjoy the property.

Our stay in the Lucy Mansion Trailer was truly magical! The site is really special with the deck and fire pit. We were so comfortable both inside and out of the trailer. There’s also a very cool spiral shaped outdoor shower, and large tables to sit at. The generator worked great and the beds were comfortable. We booked a sunrise yoga and sound bath which were really well done and nice way to end the trip. The site is very close to Integratron. Tristyn is a fabulous host and it was so nice chatting with her. I highly recommend this site, we will definitely be back!

Everything about the campsite itself was fantastic. Great vibe, great amenities and the hosts were very nice and easy to get ahold of. However, the campsite is located next to a house with a lot of dogs and they bark day and night. We stayed for two days and the dogs never stopped barking the whole time. They barked all day and all night.

We had a great time at Tristyn's property this past weekend! We enjoyed the great weather and watching the sunset from the porch. The outdoor shower was incredible and the airstream was well kept inside and cozy. We enjoyed sitting around the fire at night watching all the stars and bqqing. Tristyn is a great host and she responded immediately when I had any questions. I highly suggest booking a weekend getaway here you'll have an amazing time! Thank you again Tristyn for hosting us.

Such a fun quirky space! My fiancée and I wanted a little desert getaway for his birthday, but wanted to keep it low stress (AKA not having to worry about packing up a bunch of camping gear for a cold February night). Tristyn’s 1950 Spartan Mansion was a perfect fit. Plenty of pots/pans, a coffee maker, and (bonus!) two very friendly corgis! Highly recommend a sunrise yoga session with Tristyn - such a great way to start the day!

Stay was great! Loved the ambiance. We ended up going there when it was too cold but we still got to be comfortable at the end of the night. Host was very communicative and made sure important things are reviewed before arriving.

We loved Goodwitch Ranch! We stayed in Lucy, the 1950 Spartan, and it was so cozy! This funky witchy hippie desert ranch has all the vibes and awesome energy! You can truly feel the love they've put into this magical place, making our stay even more special. Definitely created lasting memories for us and the fur babies! The location was perfect for exploration. We visited Giant Rock, just a quick 20-minute drive away, and Joshua Tree National Park, which was conveniently about 25 minutes from the ranch. This added a wonderful layer of adventure to our magical desert getaway! Even though it was too cold to use, I couldn't resist checking out their outdoor shower setup, and it looks absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to book this place again in the warmer season to fully enjoy the charm of that outdoor shower!

Went out to Joshua Tree for New Years and it was so cold we decided to seek a little shelter in this tiny trailer at GoodWitchRanch. Immediately we were greeted generously with smiles and felt excited to be there. Overall it was an amazing experience. Me, my wife and her sister stayed cozy and comfortably in the trailer.

Vibey spot with everything you would ever need for a night of witchy glamping. Stars, stars and more stars! Close to the park and local action. Host was super responsive and I love that we could have a fire!

Such a cool little spot! We stayed one night and had a blast. I have never seen stars like that. Host was helpful sending instructional videos so we could figure out the generator, toilet, and gate. I would stay again. As an artist, I loved the weird little art on the property. Total vibe at the Good Witch! Close to Joshua Tree also to explore!

Great tent camping spot with a view of the stars! The property can have 3-4 other nearby sites occupied so it’s not 100% private but me and my friends didn’t mind. The host was really easygoing and helpful, provided us with some extra firewood even! There is a bit of deck space to get you off of the sand while you’re lounging which was nice. The only other thing was there was a few ant hills near the camp sites but as long as you look around before camping it’s not tough to pick a space that isn’t near them. Overall we had a great time and loved the site!

Our group had such a great time tent camping overnight at Good Witch Ranch. We were provided with cooking areas, fire pits, activities and even had an outdoor shower and personal porta potty just for us. Would recommend camping here anytime especially if you’re able to reserve one of the campers

This has got to be the best camping experience I have so far! Trystin, her family and their 2 fur babies are the best host. They are very helpful with what we needed and gave us great tips on where to go. The place is beautiful, has great views and easy to find. We had the place all to ourselves when we were there. We got to use the deck which has a roof making it very nice when it is warm during the day. They also have solar lighting everywhere that we loved. The fire pit is well-stocked with firewood. The shower place is huge. We had to use the restroom that is in the trailer which is a plus due to its location. They also have 2 grills, a big dining table in the deck and they even let us borrow a table cover. All in all, it was a perfect stay and I highly recommend Trystin’s place to any campers. I would come back again.
