However, the southwest direction from desert ties to the northeast direction of the west-of-mansion field. Therefore I think that west and east at the camp are mixed up, or there is a really weird anomaly in that world...or am I missing something?

On the map I made, you go northwest from "West of Mansion" to get to what you marked "Desert", not northeast.
