Perched on a hillside above Joshua Tree, this house is built around a crescent-shaped open-air courtyard where a custom pool and spa sit beneath a sweeping architectural canopy with the desert and mountains stretching beyond. Floor-to-ceiling glass dissolves the boundary between the great room and the landscape outside, while an indoor fireplace keeps cooler evenings comfortable. Come sundown, the fire pit becomes the natural gathering point as the light shifts across the boulder-strewn hills. Pioneertown and Pappy & Harriet's are a fifteen-minute drive when you're ready to venture out.

Local guide
About Joshua Tree
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.
