The space
The Seventh Ray House is a peaceful desert house located in a quiet corner of Flamingo Heights, a close walk to BLM land, you'll see Black Lava Butte and Flat Top Mesa of the new Sand to Snow National Monument peeking out above our 2 bedroom, 1 bath home.

The home is covered in cool terra-cotta tiles that are layered with authentic Moroccan rugs and boasts lighting from both Turkey and India. The vintage 1970s bar is an original of the house and has all the original bar stools - the perfect spot in the house to enjoy a glass of your favorite adult beverage or a mini-photoshoot!

☼BEDROOMS & BATH☼
The Seventh Ray House comfortably sleeps up to six guests, making it ideal for couples, friends, or families. The primary or 'Sunset bedroom,' as we call it, includes one king-size Tuft & Needle bed with premium 100% bamboo sheets by Cozy Earth. All Cozy Earth products are available at a 40% discount for our guests with code: SEVENTHRAYRBO.

The 'Sunrise bedroom' features a queen-size bed with a Tuft & Needle pillow top bed and cotton & linen sheets. Both bedrooms are designed to feel minimalistic with plenty of closet space. We also offer one queen-size deluxe comfort plush luxury airbed for a 6 guest stay.

The home has one bathroom, which features a tub-style shower and handmade vanity. Feel free to utilize the blow dryer, single-use makeup wipes or hair ties during your stay.

☼KITCHEN & DINING☼
The fully equipped kitchen features an electric range, oven and a Whirlpool refrigerator. The original refurbished cabinets are fully stocked with ceramic cookware & organic spices for use during your stay. Feel free to enjoy the sunrise paired with a cup of Joe from either the French press or the single serve Keurig.

Thinking of throwing a shrimp on the barbie? Just steps outside the kitchen is a propane BBQ and picnic table set for grilling & chilling.

Inside, the dining table seats six in the lounge and 2 at the mid-century cafe table in the kitchen, or you can opt for outdoor dining at the picnic table on the patio.

☼INDOORS☼
You’ll enter the home into a large living room with a wood stove to keep you toasty warm on cold desert nights and risings. While you won’t find a traditional TV mounted on the walls, we’ve thoughtfully included a projector with a large screen and Netflix for cozy movie nights—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. That said, we invite you to embrace the magic of the desert: curl up with one of our favorite books, spin a record on the turntable, or gather around the vintage Story & Clark piano for an impromptu melody. Whether you're watching a film or simply watching the sunset, the choice is yours.

☼OUTDOORS☼
The Seventh Ray House sits on 5 acres of mostly raw land. The home and the immediate backyard is PARTIALLY FENCED for VISUAL PRIVACY with an opening to the rest of the property which is lined on both sides with fencing. Feel free to explore the land but please mind the neighborhood around you as well as your surroundings — this is raw land with native animals.

**We Do Not Provide Firewood for Fire Pit and Wood Burning Stove. Please Bring Your Own

**COWBOY POOL AVAILABLE SEASONALLY to cool off during the hot summer days.

As you go out the back door you’ll find a pathway to the meditation / reading bed and just beyond that, two lounge chairs for enjoying the sunset. If you’re feeling the need to hang loose or want a cute photo op, there is a boho swing under the tree just outside the back door and a XL round HOT TUB, perfect for soaking after a long day in the National Park or counting shooting stars.

If stargazing is your thing, head back to our one-of-a-kind circular stargazing platform situated away from the house and lights to give you the best view of the stars possible and magically float above the ground.

As the sun begins to set, the fire pit will keep you warm and is a cozy spot to enjoy a bit more star gazing or a few s’mores over stories about the tale of the Yucca Man.

Our propane BBQ is available for use as well and please feel free to enjoy dinner on the picnic table under the stars.

☼MORE DETAILS☼
The house boasts AC/Heat mini-splits in both bedrooms as well as the living room to keep you comfortable year-round.

Neighborhood highlights

This house is located in the tranquil corner of East Flamingo Heights, nearly to Pipes Wash. The lack of light pollution gives way to beautiful starry nights so star-gazing here is a must.

The Seventh Ray House is a 4 min drive to Flamingo Height's famous roadside restaurant, La Copine (American cuisine) and Giant Rock Meeting Room (pizza & bar). FYI: La Copine is open Thursday - Sunday, while Giant Rock Meeting Room is open Thursday - Monday.

After lunch or dinner at a local spot, take a 25 min trip to the actual Giant Rock for a hike and some sight seeing in Landers.

If you're ready for a spiritual experience, head over to the Integratron for a sound bath healing & meditation! The Integratron: is a fusion of art, science, and magic and the historical structure is 'a uniquely resonant tabernacle and energy machine sited on a powerful geomagnetic vortex in the magical Mojave Desert.' Best part about it? It's only an 11 min drive from Seventh Ray and its origin story is one you'll wonder about well beyond your stay.
