"Even after the tropical storm, the location was still stunning and we were able to pull off a couple different looks without having to book a bunch of locations. Richard met us at the beginning of the day and made sure to give us a tour of the property, which was very helpful. Beautiful location, very flexible (for desert looks), and easy. We flew in from out of town for the shoot, didn't have time to scout, so I appreciate how the photography is laid out on this page - helped us imagine the location and make some decisions prior to "scouting" on our shoot day. Highly recommend." -Coy L.
"This place was better than Amazing..Richard is a Fantastic Host he made sure we were safe and had everything we needed. I asked him to stay on set and He literally stayed on set the entire time and was beyond helpful..we went over time a bit and he was willing to work with us without giving us a hard time, just a cool dude I would definitely recommend filming there.. me and my team will most definitely be back to film again.Thanks again Richard your the Best😊" -Shatifah C.
"Richard was absolutely wonderful and the location is STUNNING. 10/10" -Gabrielle D.
"It's the most amazing open space I've shot in, the views are wonderful. Richard is such a professional host and great communicator. The spot was more then I expected would definitely book this location again." - Jorge J. F.
"Fantastic location, everything you need wrapped together. Hills, ledges, flatlands, views, roads, caves. Landscape is so dynamic and in close proximity to itself! Owner was extremely helpful and pleasant to work with. STUDENT FRIENDLY TOO!!! Will definitely be visiting again soon." - Aidan E.
"What an outstanding location. The location manager/owner Rich was terrific on set as well. He stayed to ensure everything went smoothly and met for a scout beforehand, could not ask for a better experience. The location itself offers so many options for terrain as well as complexity for any shoot. I recommend this location to anyone trying to capture a unique desert landscape for photography or film. The credentials are outstanding with previous projects, and thanks to the vast amount of space you can mend a specific look for your own projects without combatting other locations shown in projects." - Zarye W.
