Our sunset spectacular is a nightly must
While the dark skies may be the main event, for many it’s our technicolor sunsets that last a lifetime.
Imikhuba namasiko
Do not drive faster than 20 mph on graded roads
Air quality in the valley can be significantly effected by your vehicle kicking up dust. You’re not in a rush, go slow.
Okufanele ukupakishe
Bring plenty of water
It’s the desert! Pack enough water for your entire group. While services are within moderate walking distance of property, proper hydration is key to desert living.
Imikhuba namasiko
Respect the cabins!
Many of the original homesteader cabins still dot the landscape, including one close by to our property. Please respect these historic structures and remember many are quite fragile. Vandalizing or sleeping in the cabins is deeply uncool. You should also know many of the residents don’t like the “poverty porn” instagramming of these spaces, especially cabins with residents living in them.

Tour A-Z West
We’re big fans of Andrea Zittel’s experiments in desert living and highly recommend touring A-Z West while you visit. Also an excellent place for local ceramics and woven goods.
