NIPTON, Calif.—In the award-winning television show “Schitt’s Creek,” the owners of the tiny town of the same name try to sell it, with no luck. Roxanne Lang feels like she’s been living that story line on repeat.
When the family first arrived, Nipton was an even dustier, more desolate outpost than it is today. The prior owners had placed dummies around the property to make it look like there were a lot of people living there. There weren’t—and the one resident soon left.Ms. Lang and Mr. Freeman planted the grove of desert-adapted eucalyptus trees and refurbished the small cafe and a five-room adobe hotel—now called Hotel California. They built several tiny eco-cabins for visitors.
Nipton has about 25 residents, plus a general store, an old school house, a trailer park and some art structures trucked in from Nevada’s Burning Man festival.Teepees erected by a company that wanted to make the town a destination for ‘weed’ tourism.In real life, the town of Cal-Nev-Ari, Nev., which had also been on the market for about five years for about $8 million, recently sold at an undisclosed price, motel and casino included, according to its new owner.
Stephen Shearin, left, jokes that he is the town’s ‘regulator,’ while Jim Eslinger, a 12-year-resident, is the self-appointed mayor.On a recent tour this month, it was 90 degrees—the “nice season,” according to Mr. Shearin. In the summer, it can soar to 110 degrees or more. Mr. Shearin pointed out Hotel California and the Nipton Trading Post, both shuttered since the pandemic started.
“It’s like you’re 100 years in the past and 100 years in the future, and the present, all combined,” says Ms. Salter, a writer. “There is an energy in the desert.” She is hoping to entice 27 other artists to chip in the cost of purchasing the town, turning it into something of an artist’s colony.

One of Arizona Attorney General Marc Brnovich's favorite sayings in law school was 'We're up shit Creek'. He has since been heard muttering same over Arizona legislative actions and about his own staff. Criminal charges pending!
