Sonoran Desert Sanctuary

This secluded wilderness sanctuary and retreat is located on 330 acres of beautiful Sonoran Desert adjacent to Alamo Lake. The sanctuary is surrounded by thousands of acres of Wilderness and Public Lands (BLM). It is located 2.5 hours from Lake Havasu, 3.5 hours from Phoenix and a 4 hour drive from Las Vegas.

The sanctuary's isolation provides abundant wildlife, stars, silence and an environment of wonder and introspection; it is a place to unplug from society and a fast-paced life.

Our first campground is open for retreats and features safari tents, restrooms/showers, places to BBQ and a fire pit. It is our future goal to provide wheelchair access to as much of the property as possible, so everyone can enjoy the serene wilderness environment.

Spiritual Sanctuary is our philosophy of a lifestyle directed by sacred intention. By combining spiritual practices and a mindfulness approach to all aspects of living, we expand what is sacred beyond the walls of the cathedral/temple/mosque and into every aspect of life. We can recreate our lives, our homes, and our communities as spiritual sanctuaries. The Sonoran Desert Sanctuary lives this philosophy through our actions, organic gardens, vegetarian menus, a philosophy of non-violence, and a mindful approach to decision making. We invite you to participate with us on this journey as a retreat participant, an individual seeking solitude, or as a volunteer. Everyone is welcome.
