Intentionally designed, inside and out

Guests highlight the thoughtful design and say the home feels like a curated desert retreat
The Joshua Tree House is a two bed two bath 1949 hacienda located 10 minutes from the west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park in Joshua Tree, CA and about a 10 minute walk from downtown Joshua Tree with many shops and restaurants. This also means that some sound from the highway can be heard. If you're looking for a completely silent desert experience, we would recommend our other property: The Joshua Tree Casita (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/10614974).

The space
This is a place for dreamers to reset, reflect, and create. Designed with a 'slow' pace in mind, our hope is that you enjoy every part of your stay; from making local coffee by drip in the morning, choosing the perfect record to put on as the sun sets, or by relaxing in the hot tub surrounded by over 100 Joshua Trees and a starry night sky.

Welcome to the Joshua Tree House! This hacienda was built in 1949. With over 100 Joshua Trees on the property, the views from the house are magical. If you're up for it, sunrise on the front porch is incredible. We estimate that some of the larger Joshua Trees on the property are as old as our country!

There are two bedrooms and two bathrooms in the house, and works well for a group of friends, two couples, or small families. We can also set up an extra memory foam mattress in the hammock room (has privacy with pocket sliding doors) to accommodate groups of six.

Guest access
While you're staying here, the house will be your private oasis. Feel free to explore the yard (we are on 1.25 acres). Also make sure to enjoy the Jacuzzi and incredible views from the front porch during your stay!

Other things to note
The second bedroom was previously detached and accessed via an exterior door, and is now connected via a doorway in the living room (as of 2025).

Our driveway wraps around the back of house, so feel free to circle around the driveway rather than backing out.

This house has old plumbing and has a septic system. PLEASE do not flush anything other than toilet paper.

Transient Occupancy Tax - A 7% TOT tax required by San Bernardino County is included in the nightly rate. For our area, Airbnb does not yet break this down as an extra line item, but rather is included in the base price.

My work: Owners of The Joshua Tree House
We're designers who have fallen in love with creating spaces for others to reflect, reset, and create. We split our time between two deserts (the Mojave, and the Sonoran). We love the way the heat sinks into our bones, the vibrant sunsets, and the wildlife we get to call our neighbors.
