Welcome to Antelope Run Ranch, a one-of-a-kind off-grid escape tucked deep within Nevada’s Pumpernickel Valley, between Battle Mountain and Winnemucca. Spanning more than 40 acres of rugged desert beauty, this developing retreat offers vast open skies, endless exploration, and a chance to experience the high desert the way it was meant to be—quiet, raw, and unforgettable. Here, solitude meets adventure. Whether you’re off-roading, stargazing, hiking, or simply seeking stillness, Antelope Run Ranch gives you space to breathe, explore, and reconnect. The ranch stretches across an expansive section of open Nevada desert, with a dry riverbed winding through its heart. This natural feature tells the story of the land—once carved by flowing water, now home to soft sand, wild sagebrush, and the occasional curious pronghorn antelope. Everywhere you look, the horizon stretches without end, framed by distant mountain ranges that glow gold at sunrise and turn deep violet by dusk. When night falls, the Milky Way reveals itself in spectacular clarity, making Antelope Run Ranch one of the best stargazing spots in northern Nevada. Small young trees—recently planted and lovingly tended—hint at the ranch’s gradual transformation into a sustainable desert haven. Each visit offers a new glimpse of its evolution. Three operational campsites are available, each large enough for a travel trailer, rooftop tent, or ground tent. These sites are spaced widely apart, allowing guests to enjoy solitude and quiet while still being close enough to share meals and stories with others. Future upgrades will include a central communal area—a shared cooking and gathering spot where guests can meet, eat, and relax under the stars before retreating to their own camps for rest. Antelope Run Ranch isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a launch point for adventure. Surrounded by miles of BLM land, guests have unlimited freedom to explore. Bring your 4x4 vehicle, ATV, or UTV and dive into soft desert sands, rocky trails, and open valley plains. Whether you’re hunting, rockhounding, hiking, or just wandering, the landscape invites exploration in every direction. If you’re a stargazer, photographer, off-road enthusiast, or someone who loves wild open places, this ranch was made for you.

May 17 2025...Okay, pergola is going up and almost complete...this will be the first of many going up around the property to provide some much needed shade.

Dark Skies-Moon Dust-Giant Bugs

Antelope Run Ranch (ARR) Camp B02

The host was great! He was very accommodating and responsive. The photo directions were beneficial because this camp spot is remote. The dark sky and stars are incredible. We went during a heatwave, and I was not prepared for the amount of bugs. There was an abundance of Mormon crickets, mosquitos, scorpions, and scorpion spiders out roaming. I have a kid who LOVES bugs, so he had a great time; me… not so much. There is zero shade, so be prepared with a shade structure in the summer. The road on the way in was rutted out and was covered in fine moon dust, drive slowly and carefully, or you might get stuck.

Desert solitude, dark night sky

20 ft travel trailer ·

Antelope Run Ranch (ARR) Camp B02

This Hipcamp is basically a very large area (100+ acres) in the compacted sandy bottom of an effluvial flow. All sites are level w/ unconstricted access. Wide, flat plane is surrounded in the far distance by beautiful bluffs and mountains. Great sunrises and sunsets ... unbelievable night sky. There is no shade, no trees ... just desert shrubs. The 9 mile drive into the property from I-80 can be a bit tricky but John provides coordinates and pictorial directions. It would be a great help to have mileages between markers to assist with navigation both into and out of the property. If you are looking for solitude ... this is it. You definitely need 4 WD to get into the property ... no rocks but some rather deep ruts from prior rainfalls. We spent 2 nights for the solar eclipse. John was on site and was a tremendous help and gracious host. Half our enjoyment was interacting with him and the few other campers on the property. Next closest camper was probably 100 yds away. Definitely recommend you bring mountain bikes so you can more easily explore the full extent of this property.

Definitely a remote area so be prepared! John was very clear with directions and his communication was on point. I'll be sure to stay next time I'm passing through Nevada again.

This is a beautiful high desert camp. It's well worth the dirt road drive and patience to arrive at camp. There lots of space between sites, we couldn't hear our neighbor's generator! Miles of hiking, quiet, sun, night sky. A great camp for those who are self-contained outdoor enthusiasts.

Antelope Run Ranch (ARR) Camp B03

Perfect spot, so wide open, plenty of space to wander. I was there for the annular eclipse and John made sure all his HipCampers were more than welcome. I wish I could have spent more time there, but had to run. John has a vision and he’s going to get it done. He’s a great host with a great attitude and super friendly! It’s like we were reunited friends from the past, and that’s how he treats all his guests. Would definitely recommend and will be back when I’m in the area.

A semi rollover caused an interstate closure that prevented me from making it to the campsite so I can’t review the location. But I can tell you that John was extremely friendly during entire process and understanding when I was prevented from getting there. The directions sent beforehand were very clear and detailed also. I wouldn’t hesitate to book another stay in the future.

Antelope Run Ranch (ARR) Camp B03

Drove out to camp for the eclipse, and it was the perfect place! John gave very detailed instructions on how to get to the site (complete with signage and photos). On this occasion, he was present and showed me where my site was at, though he can't be there every visit from what I gathered. He was very kind and welcoming! The views of the surrounding desert, mountains, and, at night, stars are awesome, and the old riverbed site was spacious and flat. There's a power plant somewhat nearby, but besides a steady hum its pretty unobtrusive and didn't bother me at all. The drive in was just fine with my 2014 Subaru Forester on all terrain tires. Expect the road to be sandy, rough, and gouged, but I never got stuck or bottomed out despite only having 6 inch ground clearance. The site is mostly just spots to park your car and/or pitch a tent currently (as expected), but John said he has plans to add in more amenities over time, which I look forwards to.

This campsite requires serious 4 wheel drive. We came after a serious ran and couldn’t make it to the campsite we kept getting stuck in the mud. It takes a while to get to the site and it’s along unmarked cow trails.
