Experience the quiet beauty of the High Desert in this peaceful retreat found at the heart of Joshua Tree. With its modern desert vibe and cool blue interiors, you’ll instantly feel at ease here. We love the laid-back seating positioned by narrow floor-to-ceiling windows, perfect for kicking back on with a cool drink as you admire your natural surroundings. You’ll love waking up and heading to the spa-like wood shower before enjoying breakfast on your private patio surrounded by cacti and desert flora. Spend afternoons in your front yard, reading a book in the shade, or stroll five minutes down the road to explore Downtown Joshua Tree’s saloons, restaurants and eclectic shops. You’re also just an eight-minute drive from Joshua Tree National Park’s western entrance, where a world of spectacular nature awaits to be discovered. After a day of hiking and exploring, come back home for drinks around the fire pit as you watch the stars dance above you in the night sky.
