Cottage vacation rentals in Palm Desert

Hot Springs, Tiny House, Desert Retreat 718

This tiny house is not so tiny at 600 sq. ft. Light-filled and mid-century modern-appointed in a gorgeous hot springs retreat, situated on a lake and right across from the mineral pools. There are wonderful views of the sunrise over the mountains behind the lake, while egrets emerge and ducks stir from sleep and the black swan settles into his place under the oak tree. The desert wakes up and is bathed in sunlight while you enjoy a morning coffee on the patio before your first hot pool dip.

Boulder Ridge Hideout - Private Joshua Tree Park

Welcome to the most exclusive area in the High Desert, called Boulder Ridge. We named this hidden gem 30 years ago, after picking the choicest property, and creating the signage, as you enter the area. Nestled in the Sawtooth mountains, and near the historic Boulder Ridge Ranch, the Boulder Ridge Hideout is a Joshua Tree National Park- like private retreat away from the crowds, with boulders dating back millions of years.
