About This Home
Built for serious desert riders and off-road enthusiasts, this 5-acre Ocotillo Wells property is the ultimate private basecamp in the heart of ORV country. With direct access to miles of open desert and legendary riding terrain, this 2-bedroom, 3.5-bath compound is designed to handle both high-octane weekends and extended desert stays. After a full day on the trails, gather in the spacious kitchen and dining area—the natural command center for planning rides, refueling, and swapping stories. A dedicated game room offers the perfect hangout space when the sun goes down, while the private pool provides a refreshing reset after dusty adventures. Infrastructure is where this property truly stands apart. A three-car garage plus a separate off-road vehicle garage give you serious space for side-by-sides, quads, dirt bikes, tools, and gear. RV hookups make it easy for friends to roll in for riding weekends, and two on-site trailers provide additional sleeping quarters for your crew. The expansive acreage offers room to stage, park, tune, and store without compromise. With wide-open desert views, privacy, and space built specifically for toys and trailers, this Ocotillo Wells retreat delivers what riders actually need: access, storage, flexibility, and the freedom to ride straight from your own property. Whether you’re building a dedicated ORV headquarters, a weekend adrenaline escape, or a multi-family desert compound, this property is ready for the next adventure.
