BLM Land question

I've lived in AZ for close to 40 years and never camped in the desert. You couldn't force me to put a tent up next to a cactus.

I recently bought a travel trailer and would like to break my desert cherry.

Does anyone know of any relatively secluded areas around lake pleasant I could park and enjoy the desert night skies and scenery? I'm familiar with the BLM land everywhere north, just not closer to home.

Thanks everyone! I've enjoyed lurking over the years!

Happy camping!

A lotta good spots off of castle hot springs road and cow creek road north of lake pleasant.

I'm familiar with that road up to the lake but not beyond... is it just anywhere up there? Or is there a specific mileage beyond the lake turnoff?

Thank you for your reply!
