About Rachel
Tucked along Nevada's Extraterrestrial Highway in the remote Sand Springs Valley, Rachel is about as off-the-grid as small-town living gets. Home to around fifty people, this tiny desert outpost sits right on the edge of Area 51, drawing curious travelers and stargazers to the famous Little A'Le'Inn. Everyday life here revolves around quiet cattle ranching, clear night skies, and sprawling desert scenery. Moving to Rachel means embracing true self-reliance, where neighbors are few, silence is part of the appeal, and basic errands require a long road trip.
