Located in the heart of downtown Joshua Tree Village, this beautiful desert cabin is the perfect tranquil getaway for a couple or solo traveller seeking an escape to the High Desert. Inside, bursts of sunshine yellow and textured throws create an instantly soothing welcome, with a platform bed cocooned to the side to give you an endlessly peaceful night’s sleep in this remote location. The spa-like wood shower is a treat to wake up to before fixing up breakfast to enjoy at the bright dining nook overlooking the front patio. This outdoor spot is where you’ll want to spend afternoons soaking up some California rays and chill out in the evenings with a glass of wine around the fire pit. When you’re not hanging out in your desert abode, go out and explore your stunning surroundings. The western entrance of Joshua Tree National Park is just an eight-minute drive away while the shops and restaurants of Joshua Tree Village are a five-minute stroll from your door.
