Desert Retreat — 3bd home with gardens and mountain views
Escape to a stunning three-bedroom, two-bath desert retreat set on 1.25 acres of rock walls, winding pathways, and lovingly curated gardens. This beautifully furnished mid-century modern home is tucked into Morongo Valley, halfway between Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park. Enjoy the best of both worlds—easy access to hiking, exploring, and world-class stargazing, with the peace and privacy of a secluded setting designed for rest, relaxation, and reconnecting. It’s an ideal retreat for friends, couples, or families looking to unplug and enjoy relaxed, meaningful time together.
