Experience off-grid living nestled on the side of the Van Horn Mountains. Immerse yourself in the breathtaking night sky and embark on adventures through scenic hiking trails in the canyon and caves waiting to be explored. Escape the hustle and bustle of city life to find solace in this tranquil haven, perfect for reconnecting with nature and unwinding amidst serene surroundings. Take leisurely strolls across the property and discover fossils, or traverse the canyon and delve into the mysteries of the caves. This is your opportunity to embrace the beauty of untouched wilderness and simply relax.You have the chance to pitch your tent in our closed off gated area, or our open range area. Either place you will have an amazing time. Peace and quiet from city notice. A beautiful night sky where you can look at the milky way or watch shooting stars. You can take a day hike up through the canyon and check out the view from so.e of the caves located up top. Either way you will have a great place to relax and enjoy nature.

Both June and her husband were very friendly and accommodating. They provided some amenities usually not found at a primitive campsites, such as 2 showers and 2commodes. We got a real ranch experience hearing turkeys and roosters. We our first armadillo in the wild on the first night.

Better with people. Not for soloing

I like the set up at this place. Looks like a spot were you would want to set up for a couple days. Not very close to town so you need supplies but the stars are pretty fantastic. There was lots of material/pallets to use as structure. Bunch of seating around the property. Clearly marked campsites. Some fairy lights around paths, but it is dark still. Composting toilets and shower with a bit of privacy. No critters setting up shop anywhere I could see. My only concerns were- 1. Seemed like noone else was there, but ramshackle buildings and disused campers all over the site. Looked like a apocalyptic ghost town. (Could use some clean up) 2. The road going in is 100% dirt and has grooves from when it is wet. In a car not a problem. I was on a motorcycle; not pleasant. Doable if it's not wet. I would stay here again. Although, not by myself and not on a motorcycle. Looks like the place to be about 20-40years ago.
