The space
Welcome to M&L Desert Cottage!

-Please note: We are a 5 min drive (3 miles) from the NORTH entrance of Joshua Tree National Park (in 29 Palms) and a 20 min drive to downtown Joshua Tree (and the busier West entrance).

-The interior and exterior of the house have been completely renovated. The space, cozy and airy, features midcentury modern and eclectic style and updated appliances.

-The kitchen has everything you will need to prepare meals—a gas oven, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, spices, and all necessary cookware. It is fully stocked with plates, glasses, cooking and serving utensils, and coffee and tea essentials.

-The cozy living room features leather seating, including a recliner chair, a 50” 4K smart TV with access to Netflix and high-speed internet access, and a record player with a selection of vinyl.

-There are two bedrooms—the main bedroom features a king-sized bed with a memory/spring hybrid foam mattress; the second bedroom has two twin-sized memory foam beds, one of which is a trundle bed that can be set up with its own mattress for parties of 5. For your little one, a Pack-n-play is provided, should you need it.

-The bathroom has a tub/shower. A hair dryer is conveniently located under the sink. Fresh towels, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are all provided for you!

-There is plenty of seating on the back patio, a midcentury gas Malm fireplace, and a gas grill for outdoor cooking. It’s a great place to enjoy a lovely dinner and to relax under the stars. Don’t forget to enjoy the beautiful sunrise/sunset on our twin hammocks!

Guest access
The house and property are all yours to enjoy. There is a washer and dryer in the kitchen. The driveway will easily accommodate three vehicles.

Other things to note
The living room features a 35K BTU mini split A/C system for those hot and humid days that provides heating as well. This system is limited to the living room and kitchen. The cooling system for the bedrooms is Evaporative, sometimes called “swamp cooler.” We will provide detailed instructions on how to operate it upon booking.

Each bedroom has a ceiling fan and a portable space heater.

The malm fireplace in the backyard is gas powered, and thus does NOT require any wood. When turning it on, turn the gas nozzle slightly and adjust as needed after using the lighter. For your safety, do not raise it all the way and take caution when lighting it.

For your enjoyment, we provide an illustrated guest guidebook with recommendations for things to do and places to eat in the 29 Palms/Joshua Tree area!

Lives in Twentynine Palms, California
We're a family of four from Long Beach, CA. We fell in love with Joshua Tree the very first time we visited. It was an unforgettable experience and we've been drawn to this magical place ever since. We've stayed in Airbnbs all over the US and the world, and are now excited to share our cozy desert home in 29 Palms with others!
