Conceived by Doug Wiand Design, of HGTV’s House Hunter Renovation fame, this reimagined 1950s cabin combines modern design with vintage Americana in the Mojave Desert. Just in case you forget where you are, a First World War-era flag hangs proudly in the living room, while stellar desert views from every window give you a sense of place. After a day hiking in Joshua Tree National Park – with the entrance just twenty-five minutes away – get the barbecue going and watch the sunset from your hot tub, before gathering round the fire pit for a beer. Don’t feel like cooking? It's just a short drive to some of the best local eateries. And if you’re in the mood for something (almost literally) out of this world, make the five-minute drive to the Integratron for a sound bath.
