Starry Night Mineral Spring
My girlfriend and I really enjoyed this campground. We loved how quiet it was. All we heard was birds, donkeys and coyotes. We loved how private our campsite was and how nice and accommodating the owners were. The tents were very clean and comfortable as well. We’re excited to stay here again and try the ramen. Five stars all the way.

Secret Garden Mineral Springs
The good: hosts were accommodating. Interesting location that made for beautiful pictures. Beds were comfortable. Dates were delicious!
The bad: the whole place felt jerry-rigged together. The community kitchen is the front patio of their home. Lots of extension cables running throughout the entire farm. The water tank of our air conditioning unit had mildew and algae growing in it. The mineral springs tub at our campsite was a large plastic bucket filled from a shower head that leaked everywhere with questionable hook ups. Unclear how often the water has been cleaned in the tub - including the community pool. We were given a king size bed and a twin bed for our family of four - which made our sleeping arrangements difficult. The twin bed only had a sheet, no comforter so by 4am, my husband was freezing. Our campsite had four chairs - one of them was broken.
I think what put the nail in coffin for this place for us is that we left behind a pot lid and asked about it. Our bad for leaving it behind, but would have appreciated a response.
Overall, we experienced it. We would not go back.

Private Mineral Spring on Date Farm
Hideaway treat
Ron was super communicative and gave a great tour and rundown on where things were. Area felt very safe and was well anointed. Loved the private mineral pool and deeply appreciated the AC in the tent for the 107° weather! Great spot!
