I highly recommend Carrizo Plain National Monument. I went at the end of April, 2023. The roads were dry, flowers were blooming, it was an amazing day. Checkout Hilltop Overview and the Soda Lake Boardwalk.
Soda Lake Road (the main road) is rugged, but flat, and during the dry season accessible to pretty much any vehicle. If you have a 4x4 you can explore the backcountry which is pretty amazing.
Be sure to visit the Carrizo Plain National Monument's website and check conditions before you go.
