If you love the desert and hate Las Vegas, go stay at Sandy Valley Ranch! Mojave and Death Valley are two of the most beautiful and unique places on Earth and SVR is a great launching point from which to explore them.
While it wasn't clear to me from the photos, the Hummingbird tiny house turned out to be quite rustic and cozy. It was clearly constructed several years ago, so don't expect a modern tiny house from a curated IG feed. Nevertheless, it was exactly what we needed for a short stay. We called ahead and arranged for a vegetarian breakfast to be delivered to us at 7am and yes, it did include the SVR branded toast!
The only real downside, but not reason enough to dock a star given the desert environs, was the heat. While the small A/C unit did keep the ground level area cooler, the upstairs sleeping area was unbearably hot but eventually cooled down once the outside temperature dropped significantly (probably around midnight). Given the insulation of the structure, I'm sure it's nice and warm in the winter.
A note on getting there: we heeded Rob's advice and followed his directions as Google Maps was not accurate. What was missing from the provided directions however, was the fact that the ranch is actually situated in California. From Las Vegas, as driving down Kingston road, you will eventually cross into CA (look for the Mojave Preserve brown landmark sign on the right-hand side). SVR is on the left-hand side, just past Shiloh Ranch. We later realized that the street address is inaccurate on Google Maps, but the SVR pin is correct, so search for SVR rather than the actual address.
