Open terrain and high desert elevation define the experience at The Upper Room Ranch, a drive-in campground outside Yucca Valley with rates running $39 to $69 per night. The site includes drinking water, trash service, and ADA accessibility, and big rigs can access it without issue. Cell service is available. Campfires are permitted.
