For many, the club provides a central base for day excursions to nearby attractions such as Calico Ghost Town, The Calico Early Man Site and Afton Canyon. Historic Route 66 comes right through Newberry Springs and offers much for the nostalgia buff, with its old motels and the renowned Bagdad Cafe. In the spring and fall, the club schedules occasional local history lectures along with guided desert hikes for those who wish to get more of a flavor of the desert life of our past and present. Another notable attraction is the over 350 days of sunshine a year. At an elevation of 1800 ft., the dry desert heat of summer days is always followed by cool, star filled nights.
Many snowbirds escape their colder climates to enjoy our mild winters.
An RV dump station is provided for your convenience. For our friends who make their living driving cross country, there is ample parking for big rigs in an area that is away from the regular camp sites. Home-cooked meals are available on weekends and holidays. There is no structured schedule of events and activities, no public address system and no pressure. You are free to do what you want, when you want, provided that it does not infringe on others.
