Beautiful serene cabin with cowboy tubs near JTNP

RayRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This house was fantastic and just as described both in photos and what was written about it. There are other homes nearby-ish, but we felt that there was good privacy for our stay. The house very nice inside and the retro style appliances in the kitchen were great! We did not use the cowboy tubs (although I really wanted to, lol), but we did enjoy the hot tub under the stars. The bed was fantastic and the shower was great as well when we needed to clean off from the great day we spent in Pioneer Town and Joshua Tree. The parking was great and we will definitely be looking forward to spending time here again and probably for more than just one night. One nights stay was really not enough! lol

Wilderness cabin views,stars,soaking tub,5acres

MariaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Meri’s Wilderness Cabin was perfect for we weary, stressed humans. The quiet solitude was life altering and we are trying hard to replicate it at home. The desert was a wonderful surprise and I will return as soon as possible! I highly recommend Meri as a host and her cabin as a sanctuary. It is beautiful and lovingly decorated, true to the environment and history of Joshua Tree.

Low Pool Heating • Spa • GameRoom • 5 Mins to Park

DougRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My wife and I really enjoyed our getaway to Joshua Tree, and staying at Mia's place was a huge reason why. The house is styled very nicely and has many noteworthy amenities. In particular, we enjoyed sitting in the pool chairs, half submerged, while soaking up the sun. The giant TV in the game room, with reclining chairs, is a great way to watch a movie. The house is very close to the park, and because it sits up on a hill, there are breathtaking sunset views to enjoy every single evening. Finally, Mia is the perfect host. Every message I sent her was responded to within ten minutes. We definitely will look to book Mia's place for a future trip!

This was the third property I’ve stayed at hosted by Ryan, and once again, it did not disappoint.

We had an unforgettable and magical experience. Upon our arrival, the home was easy to locate and get in to. The home was charming, peaceful, clean and most of all the backyard view was stunning as we had the backdrop of the mountains. The area is very peaceful and we felt very safe during our stay. It was convenient that Joshua Tree was only 20 minutes away. The hosts were available and easy to reach. We look forward to our future visits here!

Ventana Cove Pickleball & Pool Retreat

RyanRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Another Magical Stay – Now Even Better! This was our second time staying at this incredible Airbnb, and somehow it managed to top our first visit! The hosts have truly outdone themselves with the recent additions—what was already a peaceful desert retreat has now become a full-on oasis. The brand-new pool is stunning—crystal clear, perfectly maintained, and the ideal place to cool off during warm afternoons. We spent hours lounging poolside, soaking up the sun with the most serene backdrop of towering Joshua trees all around us. The pickleball court was such a fun surprise! It added an extra layer of activity and enjoyment to our stay. We played a few matches as the sun set, with golden light stretching across the desert landscape—truly unforgettable. Evenings were pure magic around the outdoor recessed fire pit. The area is beautifully designed and feels like its own little world—listening to the stillness of the desert, completely unplugged and present. We’ll definitely be back!

Mesa Tavira | Hot Tub | Pool | Fire Pit

WendyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a wonderful and relaxing stay here. It was the perfect place to celebrate my birthday weekend with friends and my husband and toddler. The place is spacious, thoughtfully designed, and the kid amenities went above and beyond! It’s rare to find a place with the luxe aesthetic / vibe while also having kid amenities. My toddler loved playing with all the toys and pool time in the repurposed shipping container was so fun. My toddler enjoyed his floatie, which was so nice to have as this was his 1st time in a pool. We had everything we needed. Perfect stay!

what can I say?! This place is the place to be to feel away from it all and unwind. We stayed in Muse and had an outdoor shower that was amazing! Never had that experience and I felt so close to nature. Unit was very clean and well appointed. Pool was chilly but once u got in, it was amazing. Not once did I have an issue. I brought my dog and she loved it too! she gave it two paws up! Will definitely come back!! Everything was as described.

Your guide to Joshua Tree

Welcome to Joshua Tree

The community of Joshua Tree rises out of the Mojave Desert in stark contrast to Palm Springs, the nearby city known for mid-century estates and plentiful swimming pools. Joshua Tree residents have instead embraced a rugged, cheerfully weird vision of the West. Iconoclasts, artists, musicians, and outdoorsy types have all carved out a place for themselves in this arid landscape, where an abbreviated downtown is home to shops selling vintage wares, handicrafts, crystals, and herbs. Many use the town as a base for exploring nearby Joshua Tree National Park, whose nearly 800,000 acres lure hikers, rock-climbers, and stargazers with an magical landscape marked by vast plains, mountains, rock formations, cacti, and the unusual trees for which this place is named.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Joshua Tree

Spring and fall are the most popular times to visit Joshua Tree, when temperatures are mild and hospitable to hiking and other outdoor activities. (Be sure to pack layers for these seasons, as temperatures can drop dramatically when the sun goes down.) In March and April, dazzlingly colored wildflowers bloom in the national park. During the summer, temperatures can soar into the hundreds Fahrenheit; in the winter the days are cool and the nights are freezing, with snow at higher elevations. In May and October the town hosts the Joshua Tree Music Festival, which features up-and-coming artists, many of whom have gone on to major careers.


Top things to do in Joshua Tree

Joshua Tree National Park

This park is named for the goofy-looking Joshua tree, which can grow to 40 feet high and sprouts a multitude of wiggly branches topped with unruly crowns of spiky leaves. This sprawling scenic wonderland has lots of activities to offer, including scenic hikes, rock climbing, birdwatching, and horseback riding. Thanks to a dearth of artificial light, it’s also an ideal place for stargazing, and depending on the time of year, you can see the Milky Way, the Andromeda Galaxy, and, in August, the Perseid meteor shower.

Integratron

Have you even visited the desert if you haven’t tapped into an otherworldly energy vortex? The creator of the Integratron, a circa-1954 wooden dome that looks like a grounded spaceship, claimed the design was based in part on telepathic communications from space aliens and centered his portal on a powerful geomagnetic vortex. Regardless of whether you believe in the original intention behind the Integratron, you can’t deny the dome is wildly conducive to beautiful, clear acoustics. Those perfect acoustics draw hundreds of visitors weekly for restorative sound baths performed live on 20 quartz crystal singing bowls.

World Famous Crochet Museum

Located in Joshua Tree’s teensy downtown, the World Famous Crochet Museum is installed inside a slime-green former photo-processing booth. Its walls are jammed floor to ceiling with crochet critters and objects that the museum’s creator has collected over the years, including yarn cakes, poodles, and alligators. Drink in the absurdity, then snag a souvenir from her adjacent studio, where she sells artworks and T-shirts screenprinted with her original designs.
