Out in the serenity of the Yucca Desert, this home radiates boho-Moroccan charm inside and out. The hiking trails of Joshua Tree National Park are less than twenty minutes away by car and it’s a ten-minute drive to Pioneertown for live shows at the iconic Pappy + Harriet’s. A cold cowboy pool in the back garden offers respite from the desert heat and there’s a shaded terrace with plenty of space to lounge and admire the surrounding San Bernardino Mountains. Inside, there’s a choice between the Moroccan-style main living room or movie nights in the sunroom (which doubles as an office) thanks to the projector and screen.

About Yucca Valley
Drive a couple of hours east of Los Angeles, and you’re in a different world. Nowhere is that more apparent than Joshua Tree with its many artist residences, rugged rock formations, and stark desert landscapes. Named after the twisted, bristled Joshua Tree, a stay in this little Mojave desert community is synonymous with art exhibitions, beautiful night skies, hikes, delicious food, and plenty of hours lounging about in aesthetically pleasing surroundings.
