Guidebook for Joshua Tree
Arts & Culture
Noah Purifoy moved from Los Angeles to Joshua Tree in 1989 for an experience to create in wide open land, and he created an outdoor art museum here. He died in 2004 but his museum lives on through a foundation. Donation's help locals maintain this gem and get a real perspective of the man who helped keep the Watts Towers from being torn down in LA. This is close to our property and it's a must see!!

Food Scene
Historic cafe from the 50's, newly remodeled but kept the local flavor, with great food, beer, and coffee. We recommend the NY Reuben on Sourdough and Arugula Salad. Their brownies are good too.
