Hikers and desert explorers can access 40 acres of Chihuahuan Desert landscape at Desert Gardens Oasis, which includes tent sites, RV accommodations, and a private landing strip. The campground sits on modest sites with water and electricity hookups, though campers must pack out all trash as no restrooms are available on-site.
Owners collect the $16 camping fee upon arrival, and reservations are available for those planning ahead. The property provides views of desert sunrises and sunsets, with the famous Marfa Prada art installation located nearby. OffGridFarmSteader offers an alternative less than a mile to the east for campers exploring the area.
