Great views and plenty of sunshine. Short drive to local wineries, U-Picks, boating and fishing on the Columbia, hiking and biking. Also just down the road from the Mammoth dig site. Great view of the Tri-cities and Badger Mountain without the hassle and traffic of being in the cities. Light pollution is pretty low so clear skies for viewing the stars. This is a high desert area, it can get pretty hot ( 95°F to over 100°F, 32°C to over 38°C) from July till mid-August give or take a few weeks. It can also snow usually from the end of December to February. So plan accordingly. Suggested Local Attractions: - On or near Hanford Site (B-Reactor Tour, Ligo Observatory, Tritan Sail Park) - The Mammoth dig site - Local Wineries - Badge Mountain Hiking trail. Candy Mountain Hiking Trail - Lots of U-Picks in the area when in season - Within 4 hours of Seattle and Portland

Location
Access Road Conditions: If coming from the southwest side of Clodfelter Rd and turning onto the property it maybe to tight of a turn to get into the driveway so you may need to turn around. The round about by the house is a bit too tight for turning around trailers and Class A's, but ok for trucks and smaller vehicles. The front yard is wide open and available for turning around your rig.

Family oriented RVer, we enjoy the road together and checking out new places with our 6 kids, even international traveling. We typically are weekend campers, but also go on a couple long trips a year. We also enjoy hosting harvest host, Boondockers Welcome RVers passing through our home base.

I had a sudden change of plans and contacted Paul bright and early. His warm and accommodating nature made all the difference. He kindly arranged a lovely, peaceful spot for me to park overnight. True to its name, the place boasts refreshing breezes. If you're a light sleeper like me, remember to pack some earplugs. Overall, it was a delightful experience, and I'll definitely make a return visit whenever I find myself in the area again.

Desert Solar Winds is a sunny, clean, and quiet property situated close to town. It’s easy to find and we had our 23 foot trailer parked and hooked up to power and water within minutes. Paul was so promp with communication and helpful hints. It was our first stay with the platform and we were very impressed.

We had a pleasant conversation with host Paul when we arrived and were made to feel welcome. We enjoyed having power as Spring had not yet sprung so didn’t have to use our generator for the furnace. A good host and easy location.
