Here Are a Few Kind Words From Our Recent Guests:
-”Gorgeous home in an even more beautiful setting. We saw a family of quail and jackrabbits from the front porch. Well-equipped kitchen, extremely comfortable beds. You can see the park entrance from the house." -Stephannie
-”Had an amazing time! Beautiful home built right up to the boulders! Just amazing as close as you can get to Joshua tree without going into the park." -Josh
-”It was my second family trip to "On the Rocks" and it was just as lovely as the first. Even if you choose to do "nothing" but watch the wildlife (birds, bunnies, lizards) flit around the front or backyard, you cannot go wrong. The boulders in the backyard are "chef's kiss." -Renata
-BEDS & BATHS-
The home contains three sunny bedrooms complete with hardwood floors, desert-inspired decor, and signature earth-tone concrete block walls that you’ll find throughout the property. Windows in the primary bedroom command long views in two directions, and there’s a wall-mounted TV for afternoon siestas.
On The Rocks! has two bathrooms, which include a shower/tub combination and modern fixtures.
-KITCHEN & DINING-
The thoughtful kitchen features top-quality appliances and a generous island with tuck-under stools to encourage socializing during meal preparation. The new, stainless steel appliances include a gas stove, oven, fridge, freezer, microwave, and dishwasher, and a coffee maker and toaster ensure mornings go smoothly. Perhaps you’ll prepare afternoon drinks on the rocks to pair with your desert-inspired cuisine. Share meals in style at the dining table, which seats 6 under an eye-catching light fixture, or opt for casual al fresco dining on the patio, which is accessible via a sliding door from the kitchen.
-LIVING SPACE-
The living room offers the perfect respite from the desert heat. It’s a cool, comfortable place to relax - and not only because of the air conditioning. The rich earth tones, huge windows, and comfortable sofa invite you to sit back, watch TV, flip through a book, play board games, or just chat with your companions. And as the evening air catches a chill, you’ll love cozying up in front of the fireplace.
Despite this profound sense of away-from-it-all, On the Rocks! is a 10-minute drive to the charm and bustle of Joshua Tree Village, with its quirky shops, popular restaurants, and vibrant drinking establishments.
-OUTDOOR SPACE-
There’s no shortage of outdoor space at On The Rocks! Settle into the comfortable, fully shaded outdoor seating area at the front of the house, where you can drink in the unobstructed views of the Craggy Mountains within the National Park. All enjoyable from within the comfort of a brand new hot tub.
At the rear of the property, the patios back directly up to soaring boulders, providing an intimate and mesmerizing sense of being one with this inspiring natural setting. A propane fire feature set at the boulders invites guests to pull low chairs close to the warmth on cool nights.
-ESSENTIALS-
Parking is available for 2 vehicles in the carport. An electric charging station has a 25 foot cord in the carport.
On The Rocks! is equipped with WiFi, heating, and air conditioning.
-ACTIVITIES/ATTRACTIONS-
Visitors come to the High Desert for its unique landscape, culture, and recreational opportunities, as well as for the weather - hot and dry summers and mild winters at our high altitude. Joshua Tree and the communities surrounding the Joshua Tree National Park include Flamingo Heights, Pioneertown, Morongo Valley, Yucca Valley, and Landers. You’ll be close to all the action at On the Rocks Joshua Tree. Some of our favorite options available to you:
–Joshua Tree National Park: 800,000 acres of mystical beauty - Joshua Tree National Park is one of the world’s most incredible natural desert treasures. Sweeping, grand in scale and populated by granite monoliths and voluptuous rock and boulder formations. This quiet land, conducive to meditation and roaming, was carved by extremes in climate - wind, rain and an ever-present, relentless sun. Diverse forms of plant life are found everywhere, but none as unique or prevalent as the park’s namesake: the Joshua tree, standing majestically across the vast topography.
–Pioneertown: Step back in time to thus rustic Old West-style village. Wander through the historic buildings, visit unique shops, catch a live music performance at Pappy & Harriets, and experience the Wild West charm.
• The Integratron: New age-y healing destination with a sound bath, originally designed by ufologist George Van Tassel with the goal of reversing the aging process.
