Whether you’re craving a spiritual retreat or a hiking hideaway, this three-bedroom home in the Yucca Valley, minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, allows you to truly be at one with nature without forgoing life’s little luxuries. Spend your days lounging in one of the outdoor hammocks, barbecuing in the barn, or hiking in the desert – there are countless trails right on your doorstep. While away your evenings watching the sunset from the front porch or stargazing in the hot tub – the dark night sky means you may even be in store for a spectacular sighting of The Milky Way.

The home’s interior reflects the rustic charm of its surroundings, with butcher-block countertops in the kitchen, carved stone sinks in the bathrooms, and a huge vaulted wooden ceiling in the living room. Two of the bedrooms even have sliding glass doors with direct access to the back patio. Cooking in the kitchen is a pleasure, and once you’ve enjoyed a meal under the string lighting in the barn, you can play some board games, followed by settling down with a movie on the video projector.
