Perched on its own mountaintop above Yucca Valley, this house has a setting that earns its reputation – 360-degree views sweep across the High Desert, mountains, and valley floor in every direction. The pool terrace is where the days dissolve: swim, ease into the stone hot tub, then watch the desert sky turn pink and the valley lights flicker on below. A two-person swing suspended above the valley, a sunken fire pit, and an alfresco dining area make the outdoors feel as considered as the interior, where archival photographs and mid-century furnishings nod to the ranch's Hollywood past. Joshua Tree National Park is a ten-minute drive away.

Local guide


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.
