Off the grid living near Kingman

Walnut Creek is a secluded, unincorporated neighborhood where people enjoy their privacy. “The clients I have sold to in the area value being off the grid and enjoy the quiet of the dirt road lifestyle,” says Charmayne Keith of RE/MAX Preferred Professionals, who has over a decade of experience in the area. “It’s very rural, and there’s no HOA, which is what a lot of people in this area are looking for.” Many of the lots are equestrian properties, and homeowners ride horses through the desert countryside. Walnut Creek does not have a city police department, but the neighborhood has a CAP Crime Index score of 1 out of 10 compared to the national average of 4.

Homes with an acre of space

Homes in the neighborhood are either manufactured homes costing between $240,000 and $280,000, or ranch-style builds in the $325,000 to $470,000 range. The single-family ranches feature driveways, multicar garages and tile roofs. Some with stables for the local horses. Homeowners have space, as lots are typically over an acre. Homes do not have grass yards but instead have cactus plants or rock gardens. Due to the extreme heat and arid climate, wildfires are prevalent in the area. Residents should keep properties clear of flammable debris.

Near Cerbat Foothills Recreation Area

There are no parks in Walnut Creek, but plenty of plenty to do within just a short drive. The Cerbat Foothills Recreation Area is 15 miles north of the neighborhood and offers 11,300 acres of trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding. White Cliffs Wagon Trail is an easy 2.5-mile hiking trail that’s pet friendly, while the Monolith Garden Trail is an 8.5-mile challenging loop. Trail users should note that there is little shade and few water fountains, so sunscreen and hydration are essential. Also, about 15 miles from the neighborhood is Metcalfe Park, which has a tree-topped playground, a stage for local performances and baseball fields. The Cerbat Cliffs Golf Course is an 18-hole championship track with private lessons, extensive practice ranges and a full pro shop.

Monolith Garden Trail is one of many nearby trails for Walnut Creek locals to explore.

Dining and Mr. D'z

Locals head about 7 miles down the road to Kingman for shopping and dining options. “With Kingman being so close you can be in the country and feel secluded, but you do have places to eat and go out,” says Keith. Mr. D’z Route 66 Diner has bright colors and a throwback vibe with neon pink picnic tables outside and teal leather barstools inside. Route 66 signage is on the walls, and diners enjoy large burgers and milkshakes. Floyd & Company Real Pitt BBQ customers sit on wooden picnic tables or metal barstools and enjoy brisket, pulled pork and ribs. The dimly lit walls of Mi Lindo Jalisco feature black and white murals of Hollywood stars of the 1950s and 60s, and diners can order Mexican classics like fajitas and margaritas. Locals shop for groceries and other necessities at Safeway and Walmart located just off Interstate 40.

Mr. D'z is a popular go-to for Walnut Creek residents for pizza, milk shakes and more.

Historic Route 66 and Interstate 40 access

Walnut Creek’s proximity to Historic Route 66 and Interstate 40 makes it easy to get to the rest of Mohave Valley. Locals can take 66 for 7 miles and be in Kingman in under 15 minutes. Highway 68 provides access to Bullhead City, 40 miles west, and Route 93 takes residents 131 miles north to Las Vegas, home to the area’s only major airport. As an unincorporated area, there’s no public transportation in Walnut Creek, so a car is a necessity for locals.
