From slow winter mornings indoors to sunset dinners on the patio, every space has been designed to make the ranch feel like a place you will want to return to again and again.

After a day of hiking and exploring Joshua Tree National Park, return for a restorative soak in the spa or cowboy pool. As the sun begins to set, prepare dinner on the propane BBQ, with propane provided, and gather around the outdoor dining table with seating for six. The patio also features a comfortable outdoor sectional arranged around a propane firepit. It is an inviting place to share a drink, watch the colors change across the canyon, and enjoy the stars as they emerge over the desert.



-Living Area-

The living room brings together mid-century modern design and relaxed ranch character, creating a space that feels stylish without sacrificing comfort. An oversized bean bag invites you to sink in and stay awhile, while the record player and record collection provide the soundtrack for slow mornings and cozy evenings at home. During the cooler months, light the wood-burning stove and enjoy a peaceful winter morning with coffee, music, and views of the surrounding desert. After a day in Joshua Tree National Park, the living room offers a warm and welcoming place to reconnect, relax, and plan the next day’s adventure.

The fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to prepare everything from a casual breakfast to a celebratory desert dinner. Whether you are packing snacks for a day in Joshua Tree National Park or cooking a leisurely meal at home, the kitchen is equipped for a comfortable and convenient stay. The indoor dining table seats six and provides a welcoming gathering place for shared meals, games, and conversation. Outside, a second dining area seats six on the patio, with a propane BBQ and propane provided for easy grilling beneath the open desert sky.



-Bedrooms & Bathrooms-

The two bedrooms continue the home’s peaceful, welcoming atmosphere, providing comfortable retreats after a day of desert exploration. The primary bedroom has a king bed and direct access to the bathroom, while the second bedroom has a queen bed with access to the bathroom a short walk down the hall.



The oversized bathroom offers both a separate shower and bathtub, giving guests the choice of a quick rinse after hiking or a long, relaxing soak before bed. Spacious and thoughtfully appointed, it brings another layer of comfort to the easygoing ranch experience.
