Your Desert Sanctuary Awaits: Find Tranquility at Wonder Mountain
‘The extreme clarity of the desert light is equaled by the extreme individuation of desert life forms. Love flowers best in openness and freedom.’ Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire
Escape to your own private space in the heart of the desert, just 15 minutes from Joshua Tree National Park. Rest and reconnect with yourself and your loved ones in this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat around the corner from the entrance of Joshua Tree National Park's peaceful embrace. Don’t forget to do a photoshoot with the natural backdrop of desert mountains, unparalleled sunsets, and the galaxy's star showers!
Our desert retreat house is your chance to experience the beauty of the high desert just 15 minutes from the National Park's wonders. Explore the park's inspiring landscapes, or wander around Joshua Tree and 29 Palms' vibrant small business and arts scene. Take a look at local favorites listed in the guidebook! Return to a rejuvenating soak under a canopy of stars at night in our outdoor hand-carved stone tub, filled with spring waters from our living geothermal aquifer on the land, naturally flowing from deep below the earth’s surface. This is not city water; it's genuine, clean, healing mineral water. The health benefits are immense!
Breathe in the peace and quiet: Our secluded location, a half-mile from neighboring homes and surrounded by 360-degree views of volcanic Shadow Mountain, Sheephole Wilderness, and Joshua Tree National Park in the distance, offers a true escape from the hustle. Stargaze under the vast night sky, unblemished by light pollution, and witness the Milky Way in all its glory.
Reconnect with nature: Start your day with the desert sunrise painting the canvas of the open sky, catch your yoga flow with a complimentary yoga mat. Remember to bring your own firewood so you can gather around the fire circle in the evening and listen to the gentle breeze whispering through the palm and salt cedar trees as the sun dips. Disconnect from the digital world and find peace in the serenity of the desert.
Rejuvenate your spirit: After a day of exploring Joshua Tree National Park's stunning blooming cacti, giant boulders, and many creatures, or immersing yourself in the neighborhood’s artist-run shops, cafes, coffee shops, and bars, return to your private oasis. Relax on the comfy lounge furniture on the expansive 50-foot patio. Prepare a meal for 8 in the full-sized kitchen and enjoy a sunset dinner outdoors.
Merge with the desert magic: With three comfortable bedrooms, a living room, 2 full baths with tubs, and the soothing sounds of nature, our vacation rental provides everything you need for a restorative retreat. Come experience the desert's embrace and rediscover yourself under the wide open sky. You might even spot many kinds of birds, antelope squirrels, lizards, cottontail rabbits, jack rabbits, a desert tortoise or a coyote if you keep your eyes and ears open!
