OK... I wonder where the double r version came from, if not the signage when I went there? Thanks!!

Just returned from Mulegé. The cords for the museum are
N 26.88937 W112.04984. It’s about 5 miles west of Mulegé

Reminds me of Rancho Santa Ynez! That was the owner's preferred spelling of Santa Inés.
Personally, I prefer the correct spelling almost always. However, for a guidebook, if you tell someone to look for Los Naranjos (or Santa Inés) but
all the signs say a place is Los Narranjos (or Santa Ynez), it may have a the newbie drive on, seeking the name in the book!??
Nothing is 100%, and having some mystery makes it a bit special. I would prefer the guidebooks try and spell Guerrero Negro correctly, but we see
Guerro Negro so often! There isn't even a word 'guerro' in Spanish!
Another debate can be for Santa Rosalillita (traditional) over Santa Rosaliita (new version)!

LOL!
Indeed... Getting to Cabo is a no brainer... you just drive until the peninsula ends! LOL
As for the 'Narranjos' correction, that could have easily been done back in 2018 when I asked Nomads to please let me know if they spot errors or
typos. I really appreciated all those who did as it helped me make a better product. San José de Gracia was corrected from San José de Garcia, for
example... I think even the goat spotted an error on a whale camp name south of San Ignacio.
Playa los Naranjos:
They seem to have a Facebook page, but the name is not in the link: https://www.facebook.com/NaranArmando
I have sent the correction to the professional editor who is working on the guide for Baja Bound.
Thanks Larry!
Oh, notice that the new Baja Atlas got it right and I did not change the spelling I had recorded:

To be clear, the sign on the highway spells it with a single “r”.

That's great...
when I was researching that section (Feb. 2017), there was only a sign for Bob & Susan's place and further down the dirt road, Playa Punta Arena:
Here is Los Naranjos:
Thank you!
