Step back in time to 1978 at The Coyote House - a cozy 2-bed, 1-bath retreat filled with vintage treasures near Pioneertown & Joshua Tree.
Vintage Vibes: Unique, one-of-a-kind pieces throughout.
Chill Out: Listen to records on the shag rug.
Swim & Stargaze: A spa for relaxing & nighttime stargazing. Cowboy pool for cooling off (open seasonally).
Desert Views: Stunning sights of the surrounding mountains and desert.
The Coyote House is a one-of-a-kind high desert getaway.
The space
The Coyote House is an 800 square foot two bedroom house and is perfect for a group of friends or a small family.
Lounge in bed and watch the morning sun fill the room or put on a record and relax on the couch. Then finish your day in the spa staring up into the night sky and count the shooting stars flying above you.
Both bedrooms have queen memory foam mattresses and there is enough space for a travel crib in either room. There are mini-split heaters/AC in each room as well.
The house is in the perfect location. You can walk just a few blocks to get coffee and check out the fun vintage shops along 29 Palms Hwy in Old Town Yucca Valley.
You can drive five minutes through the unbelievable desert boulders and have a drink at the local favorite Pappy & Harriet's in Pioneertown. And we're just twenty minutes away from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park.
There are plenty of restaurants, grocery stores, and shops so you don't have to worry if you forgot anything!

Recent guest feedback: "The Coyote House was exactly how it was described in the listing. The antique 70’s decor all throughout the house was so cool! We loved stargazing in the hot tub at night. It was super convenient for our trip to Joshua Tree. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a fun place to both explore the area and relax. - Tara"

Guest access
You have access to the whole house except the housekeeping room (which is through a locked door through the bathroom).
Don’t feed or interact with the neighbors’ dogs!! We know they are cute as hell but the owners specifically asked us not to.
Other things to note
Pet Friendly: We're pet friendly! Two well-behaved pups allowed. There is a $75 pet fee, paid at time of booking. No pups on the furniture and no pups left alone in the house (unless crated) or in the yard and please dispose of any pet waste.
Check in/Check out: Check in time is 4 pm and check out time is 11 am.
Please review our cancellation policy closely. If you’re worried about the possibility that you may need to cancel after the refund period is closed we highly recommend adding travel insurance to your booking.
Please be aware that you will be in the desert so you may encounter bugs, animals, dust, and very hot weather. Especially in the summer.
There are some tasteful vintage semi-nude oil paintings in one of the rooms. So if that kind of thing bothers you, you may want to look elsewhere.
Because of the desert location of the house and heightened fire risk there are NO outside fires allowed.
NO COMMERCIAL FILM OR PHOTO SHOOTS WITHOUT PRIOR CONSENT! Personal social media/blog photos are fine, of course. Tag us! @thecoyotehouse
Spa and Pool rules:
Use at your own risk. No jumping or diving, running, rough play, food, and glass in the pool or spa area. Children can not use the pool or spa without adult supervision. Keep in mind the spa uses chemicals to maintain cleanliness that may alter the color of swimwear or hair. This is typical in any pool or spa.
