This isn't just a spot to park a trailer or build a cabin, BUT you can turn it into whatever you need it to be:
- Create your own desert garden or experiment with water-wise landscaping.
- Use it for weekend stargazing retreats under truly dark skies.
- Practice off-grid skills and test your solar setup.
- Set up archery targets, trail circuits, or meditation spaces right on the land.
- Camp out with friends and disconnect fully for a few days or weeks at a time.
Power will likely come from solar or a generator, and this area supports a completely off-grid lifestyle. Planning long weekends off the map? Or slowly building out a bigger vision? This corner lot gives you the space and freedom to do it your way.
