Shores of Saturn · Tiki Boat Bar, Hot Tub, Quonset

Summary:

A full-sized 1969 Chris Craft motor yacht turned working tiki bar inside a massive Quonset hut, a six-person hot tub, a vintage McIntosh sound system with a vinyl collection and 15 private acres set Shores of Saturn apart, a two-bedroom home in North Joshua Tree's Hidden River neighborhood. Floor-to-ceiling windows open on both sides to the desert. Mix a drink at the boat bar, spin a record and soak under the stars.



The Space:

Shores of Saturn is a massive Quonset hut on 15 private acres in North Joshua Tree, combining industrial design with refined interiors, very tall ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows that open on both sides to desert and mountain views. At its center is a full-sized 1969 Chris Craft motor yacht reimagined as a working tiki boat bar. Century-old Persian, Turkish and Kazakh rugs, tiki artifacts, cosmic decor and a vintage McIntosh sound system fill the open layout. With two bedrooms, it suits couples and small groups of up to five.
