An old miner's shack called Deer Trail Lodge is located north of Alamo Lake. Surrounded by Palo Verde trees and Saguaro Cacti, this hidden spot is a popular destination for campers and adventurers. The cozy one-room dry cabin has a wood stove, picnic table, and an outdoor campfire ring. The area is rich with small mines such as Bonanza, Cactus Queen, Deer Trail, and numerous other prospects and mines to explore throughout the region. Visitors can enjoy a lake view while enjoying the quiet and dark night skies that come with being 50 miles from the nearest town.
