Desert Bungalow near Joshua Tree and Palm Springs

You've found your getaway! Spacious outdoor hang-outs, breathtaking views, comfortable beds, and more amenities than you'll have time to enjoy, all shared with our friendly husky and bossy chickens. The reviews say it all. Pull away from the chaos and just relax in the fresh desert air. Build a fire, chip some golf balls, paint a mural, or just take a nap on the Amish-made porch swing while the koi pond waterfall provides a soundtrack under panoramic mountains. Riverside Co. STR Cert. 002764.

Here’s your chance to stare into a deep, starry night as you poke glowing campfire embers, slowly warming a marshmallow (firewood and mallows provided). The soft bed awaits as you drift off to the low cull of roosting chickens and an occasional distant howl of coyotes (animals on call, no extra charge).

You’ve got plenty of private space, along with shared amenities around the entire 1.5 acre property. Two BBQ grills, numerous tables and seating/eating areas where you can tuck away alone or engage with other guests. Enjoy a "hangout" with hammock chairs and bean bags, a variety of cool lawn games, painting on the World Mural Wall and more.

This unique adventure has all the comforts you could hope for as you relax inside or under the stars including a comfortable bed, heated blankets, restroom, and Wifi around the entire property. Our years of hosting experience and the breathtaking panoramic mountain views are exactly what you need to unwind and restore yourself.

Guests enjoy a variety of private spaces along with generous shared areas. Let the relaxation begin in your private cabana tent and indoor bungalow, both crafted around your comfort. Or take in the outdoor shared amenities including a dual BBQ pit (with utensils, foil, oils, small iron skillet and basic spices), the fully-stocked coffee bar (Keurig, tea kettle, microwave, and minifridge), the Chick-magnet hangout (with hammock chairs, bean bags and a clear view of the chicken yard), along with two covered patios (with porch swing, rocking chairs, eating areas and deep-cushioned furniture). The bathroom is also large and shared.

Diana and Matt enjoy hosting you at their property, and while they are welcoming to you, they also give you the space you came for. They are both available when needed and reachable through the app messenger (they keep their phones nearby all night). Even if it’s late, they truly don’t mind and are happy to help! :)

You are welcome to ask them questions about the area. They have lived in the Desert Hot Springs/Palm Springs region for more than 20 years, so they know some great little restaurants and entertainment spots throughout the valley. You can check out the guestbook on the listing for suggestions!

We look forward to hosting your dream desert vacation that’s just minutes from numerous spas (many of them have day passes available), excellent food and nightlife options, outlet shopping, casinos, the Palm Springs aerial tramway, endless hiking options, and world-class natural wonders like Joshua Tree National Park and Mount San Jacinto. Our position on the brink of the San Andreas fault gives us numerous options for local natural hot springs, and the mountain pass leading to Los Angeles brings refreshing winds to compliment the warmth of the desert sun. Just a few minutes outdoors will have you feeling grounded, decompressed, and ready to experience the natural wonders of the valley.
Our neighborhood has larger properties that are quiet, private, and spread out. Because of this, our location has low light pollution - on a clear night be sure to watch for shooting stars! Joshua Tree National Park is just on the other side of the hills behind our home, so be prepared to hear the true sounds of the desert night. The occasional coyote may be howling at the moon, but our property is completely gated on top of layers of privacy hedges. The only visitor you’ll be getting is our super friendly husky mix, Jessie!
Our street only serves our neighborhood, so there won’t be much traffic. We have 3 separate driveways and plenty of parking space. Two of the most popular day spas in town are less than a mile away! All other activities will require transportation. We have both a nearby bus stop and easy access to ridesharing.

A secure, on-site parking area is near your private area. There is plenty of parking, and the entire property is gated and walled.
There is a bus stop at the nearest cross road (West St.) which is about 1/4 mile walk.
Uber and Lyft both serve the area, as do many food delivery apps.

Amazing amenities for enjoying the desert outdoors! A large fully functional bathroom with hot and cold water, shower, flush toilet, hairdryer, shampoo, liquid soap, towels - everything you need! Jessie is our friendly, non-aggressive dog. She loves your attention and hangs around outside most of the time. She barks to say "hello", so please be patient with her as she strikes up a conversation. Huskies are notorious talkers :)
Our night sky is amazing on property, and yet many guests will also head up to Joshua Tree late at night to see the deepest night sky you can imagine (about 45 min away).
