About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Modern Cowboy Retreat

This quiet homestead is the perfect place for you to immerse yourself into the high desert. With plenty of Joshua Trees surrounding it, you’ll have no problem enjoying the whimsical desert landscape. Perfect for remote work or exploring the sights. You’ll be sure to make some remarkable memories while escaping to the serenity of the desert.
The space
The house is located at the end of a private drive situated on top of a hill within the lush desert landscape. It has an open concept kitchen, living room, and designated workspace. All of it is flooded with natural light from the vaulted ceilings, creating a truly welcoming experience.

Built in 1958, this original homestead has a queen size bed in the quaint bedroom for any cowboy or cowgirl to relax in at the end of the day. The living room couch pulls out into a twin for an additional guest. We heard that the bathroom sink and toilet are good friends, thus why they are close together.

Outside you will find amazing views of Big Bear, as well as Joshua trees surrounding the property. The fenced backyard with an outdoor dining space is perfect for enjoying legendary desert sunrises, sunsets and star filled nights.

While you are not out and about enjoying Joshua Tree National park (only 11 minutes away!), there are plenty of activities within the home. Get cozy in front of the indoor fireplace on those chilly winter nights, or play games around the table. You’re minutes from countless hiking trails, restaurants, vintage shopping, and much more.

Cozy retreat!

The cowboy retreat was as advertised and was a lovely, quiet place to seek some intentional solitude and peace away from the hustle and bustle. Close to Joshua Tree and to my favorite spots in Yucca Valley and Flamingo Heights. I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend this to any other solo adventurer or couple for a getaway!
