Mineral Spring RV Site on Date Farm
Really pretty place with the awesome extra of hot tubs from mineral springs. Just bring lotion! The minerals are drying. The sky is amazing and the space so quiet.

Starry Night Mineral Spring
We had a great couples getaway at Ron and Myung's Date Farm. They were the perfect hosts (including the friendly cat Albert!). The communal vibe is refreshing. Lovely secluded pool and yurt. We came in at night and winding our way through the palms to our little spot was magical. The location was a great jumping off point for both Joshua Tree and Palm Springs adventures. PS. Get the dates in your package, they are delicious!

Secret Hot Spring Garden
Wonderful
It's a very healing place. The mountains are amazing and having your own personal hot spring? How does it get better than that. It's a very comfortable set up and the tent was awesome. I used the kitchen as well - though it's more fun to cook at your campsite. The hosts are very kind and available to help. They even got my car jump started when I was trying to leave. It's a special place.

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.
