I would like to thank my hosts for being so nice. I spent 5 nights there with no issues. I would return if im out west again.

We didn't actually stay here because of nonstop rain in the region. The hosts were understanding. You could tell by their communications that they are proud of their area and really wanted us to stay at their place., That was appreciated.

This stay has great mountain views and a wonderful view of the night sky. We even saw a space launch while here! Joshua Tree was about 40 minutes away. The space was level, spacious, and had full hook ups. The host was great and communicated quickly. Be sure to check how your GPS takes you when getting there/leaving. It took me on a dirt road that had turns very steep and difficult for me 17ft trailer.

Easy access off of the hwy however, the sand/gravel road is very wash boarded. Lots of room to manuever our 40' 5th wheel, super quiet, with water and dump available. We took lots of walks around the town and every person we met was super nuce and full of local knowledge. Joshua Tree National Park is only.an hour away. We were also treated to some spectacular sunsets!
