♦  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 everything at Boulder Surrounded Hot Tub. 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.

Neighborhood Neighborhood
The 320-acre private community of Rock Reach is technically in the Town of Yucca Valley, but it feels like the middle of Joshua Tree National Park – without the crowds. Most of the landscape is an untouched wonderland of weathered boulders, pinon pines, desert oak and juniper trees.

Rock Reach provides the perfect blend of pristine desert and easy access to amenities in town. The West Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park is a 20-minute drive away, and the shops, restaurants, and things to do in Yucca Valley and Joshua Tree Village. A few of favorite spots in Joshua Tree Village include Space Cowboy Books, the World Famous Crochet Museum, and the Joshua Tree Saloon.

In addition to shopping and dining, you won’t want to miss these nearby highlights:
• Pioneertown (15-minute drive) - Put on your ten-gallon hat and stroll down Mane Street of this Wild West-inspired town, also known for Pappy & Harriet’s, a notable restaurant and venue.
• Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Art Museum (20-minute drive) - As far from a stuffy gallery as you can imagine, this outdoor sculpture garden contains a unique collection of folk-art.
• The Integratron (20-minute drive) - New age-y healing destination with a sound bath, originally designed by ufologist George Van Tassel with the goal of reversing the aging process.
• Palm Springs (40-minute drive) - Artsy town known for vintage shopping, art galleries, and the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway.
• Mt. San Jacinto State Park (90-minute drive) - Expansive, hilly landscape with foot and horseback trails surrounding 10,834-foot Mount San Jacinto.

Wow, what a place to stay. a last minute change of plans saw us book this beautiful place in the desert for 6 Nights. The Sunrise was spectacular every morning, an exceptional property, luxurious and stylish throughout. the master bedroom was so comfortable and was the best bed away from home we have ever slept in. A true rest for budding adventurers and a great location to visit nearby attractions without travelling to far. Pioneertown is a must (just avoid the coffee especially if your British). AnotherDesertHouse provided us with a much needed pause, relax and refresh before continuing on our California road tripping adventure. I would definitely stay again if I am fortunate enough to go on another road trip in California.

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that your last-minute change of plans led you to our beautiful desert retreat for six nights. It’s fantastic that you enjoyed the spectacular sunrises and found the property both luxurious and stylish. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay on your next road trip!

We had an amazing stay at this property. It’s serene and isolated, a hidden oasis with a beautiful view. The master suite was HUGE. The other two bedrooms were very nice. The sofa I’m told was super comfortable to sleep on, by a very tall man :) We enjoyed cooking and grilling together in the kitchen. The dining area was spacious and convenient. Loved the game options. My favorite part: the garage and electric car charger! Hallelujah. I would 100% recommend this property.

This modern Airbnb in Joshua Tree is an absolute gem. The standout feature is the backyard—a literal mountain you can climb for breathtaking sunsets. Each evening, we hiked up to witness the sky ablaze with colors, an unforgettable experience. The house itself is beautifully designed, blending modern aesthetics with the natural desert landscape. Large windows offer stunning views, making you feel connected to nature even indoors. The amenities are top-notch, from a fully equipped kitchen to super comfortable beds. The outdoor patio was perfect for morning coffee and evening stargazing, thanks to minimal light pollution. Our host was incredibly responsive. Whether you’re seeking adventure or relaxation, this place offers both. Climbing the mountain became our daily highlight, making this stay truly unique. We left feeling refreshed and inspired. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a serene escape with a touch of adventure. Five stars!

Outstanding home! I want to start by highlighting the location. The property is nestled high in the Yucca Valley hills almost completely secluded. You have no neighbors and you only hear the wind and the wildlife around you. The views overlooking the valley is amazing. You can climb up the slope in the backyard and catch a beautiful sunset. The property itself is great. Clean and modern. Large open floor plan. All the essential amenities are present. Everything was very clean on arrival and nothing was broken. We enjoyed lounging in the jacuzzi while stargazing at night. Host provided prompt instructions. I never had to contact them.

Great location. Boulders in the back and a little trail up them. Eastern facing views of yucca mesa. Beautiful interior. Exterior could use a bit more love, more comfortable furniture and shaded areas in the back, wouldnt mind some hammocks etc. But overall a great property.

The home is located on a ridge with sweeping canyon views of majestic vistas and mountains. The property offers privacy and a modern outdoor jacuzzi. There is a gas fireplace inside and outside as well as a grill and multiple seating options. The interior is clean, features beautiful decor and decorations. The garage is spacious and secure.

My wife and I stayed here for our Joshua Tree elopement. The place was perfect. The hosts are excellent communicators. The house is gorgeous and very well decorated. The property is secluded and stunning. The hot tub was a dream at night out under the stars. We even loved the mattress in the master. It was super comfy. I would go back.

We just returned from this wonderful home in an exceptionally peaceful and scenic locale. The house and amenities are outstanding and views are excellent. We truly enjoyed relaxing in the home in front of the fireplace and outside at the fire pit and the hot tub. The home was also convenient for our almost daily trips to Joshua Tree NP. We look forward to returning.

Beautiful home. Nice modern touches, everything was top quality, from the kitchen appliances to the bathrooms, furniture, linens, etc. There are quite a few neighbors, but everyone kept to themselves or just weren’t there. The dirt road getting there can be tricky if you take the short route that gps maps wants you to take. By the second day we realized the longer route and it made all the difference. And yes, a sedan close to the ground could be challenging. The host was responsive when we needed help w the internet. Very quiet and private home. I never seem to find a mattress that is soft enough for me, so I think I’m the problem. I would recommend to friends to stay here. 5 stars.

We celebrated my husband’s birthday weekend at this beautiful house. It gave a very luxurious resort vibe without the crowd. We loved how it felt so peaceful and secluded but was still close to restaurants and stores. We loved stargazing from the hot tub. It was magical. We watched a few sunrises and sunsets from the house and they were phenomenal. We enjoyed cooking a meal and eating it at the patio when it was sunny. The views from the house are spectacular. The house is cozy too when you are tired and just want to relax. We would definitely return.

The beds were comfortable the linens very nice and the showers clean and well stocked. Set your alarm for sunrise, the view from the front of the house was stunning

My group of 4 absolutely loved our stay here. The home is tucked away from any main roads and there are very few housing in the area, so you are truly staying in a serene desert home - the stars at night are incredible!! The house was well equipped with everything we needed for a 3 night stay. We enjoyed using the grill and the hot tub - unfortunately it was too windy to utilize the fire pit but the area looked very inviting. The house was spacious, comfortable and immaculately designed. We were so sad to leave! We will 100% be coming back the next time we venture to Joshua Tree.

This house is an absolute GEM. From the peaceful and quite serenity of the surroundings, to the interior of the home itself, this location is the PERFECT environment to get away from the stress of every day life in the city. This home has it all and we found ALL of the amenities to be both clean and in wonderful condition. Our hosts, the team from Homestead Modern were extremely communicative and super helpful throughout our entire stay. We most certainly plan on returning and would recommend this stunning (and overwhelmingly peaceful) home to anyone looking for the perfect Joshua Tree area getaway.

Extremely well equipped, even for fixing and serving a Thanksgiving dinner. However this is a lack of pantry space to store food and supplies not needing to be refrigerated. There are 3 pantry cabinets that are locked and the only one available is mostly full of small appliances etc.
- Review Date: 12/11/2023
We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced with the limited pantry space. Please accept our sincere apologies for any frustration this may have caused. During the holiday season, we do see an increase in guests who bring additional items and supplies, and we regret if this impacted your stay. We truly appreciate your feedback and we’ve made some changes to make more space. We hope to host you again.

This place is stunning! It was the highlight of our trip, we loved exploring every part of this place - from the chairs out front for morning coffee, the back of the home for lunch/listening to music/reading, the hot tub or lounge chairs our front for stargazing, the board games, the books… we of course loved pioneer town and Joshua tree, but could have stayed here the whole time! It was only the two of us, but would be perfect for more folks. The drive is a bit more adventurous for city dwellers and you maybe more comfortable in a mini suv or larger and trying to get there in daytime, but they grate it regularly. Stay here, I’m so glad we did.

Had the most amazing and relaxing stay here! Unfortunately, the initial home we booked under Homestead Modern didn’t work out last minute, but they were very quick to accommodate and help us find another home that was available for us to stay in! I’m really glad it worked out in the end because the location of this home was very private, peaceful, and had such breathtaking views. We also loved the interior of the home and it was a beautiful space for us to relax in for the weekend. Highly recommend!

Beautiful surroundings and home, good privacy, clean and quiet. Great views from the hot tub and front window. Wish list would include new hammocks (the current ones say to the point they hit the ground when you sit in them, but maybe that’s just due to the recent heavy rains?) and a bigger/sectional couch to allow cuddling with dogs and loved ones (incidentally, the set up for dogs was great, with a dog bed, lint roller, and sheet to put over sofas in order to prevent damage/shedding - nice touches!). Thanks for the great stay!

Hello Nate! Thanks for the feedback. The views are truly epic, especially from the spa, and we are so happy that your furry friends had a nice time as well. The recent storms really gave outdoor amenities a beating and we appreciate your comment regarding the hammocks. We have since taken that amenity offline while we sort out the best way to repair them. We are truly sorry that you were affected and we are on top of improvements! Please visit us again soon!

The home was well decorated and the outside was as comfortable as the inside. Lots of areas to read or just breath in nature outside. I loved the natural stones, in the house, and the extra blankets. The bed was good. And overall it had everything you would need for a long or short stay. Also The views in morning and evening were equally lovely. Picture perfect sunsets and sunrises. Why not 5 stars? The road to get to the house was very sketchy… perhaps because of all the recent rain. There was notice it was a dirt road but there were giant cracks and bumps en route so be warned and take your time so you don’t get a flat tire. Also the front door thumped and rattled all night because of the wind. (It seems it might need a new latch.). And the back screen door could not slide as it seemed to have been rusty. You can also see your neighbors… it was still beautiful with epic views and quiet tranquility, but it’s not quite the isolated 2 acre abode you may imagine.

Hi Meg! We are thrilled you could enjoy the comfort and natural aura of ANOTHERdeserthouse! This year's storms were absolutely unprecedented - perhaps once in a decade. The heavy rains, snow and subsequent runoff destroyed many of the roads and the winds were especially brutal. We are sorry about the noise and screen door, and we have that on our list! The roads unfortunately cannot be repaired until the winter has passed. The 'epic views' sometimes require an epic journey - but not that kind of epic! The storm damage is a challenge we will be working on right away! Thanks and please visit us again!

We truly loved our stay here! It was very clean and as described. We enjoyed the jacuzzi and the sunrise/sunset. The decor was well designed and the views are incredible! My only recommendation is for a quicker response from the host. We asked about bringing an additional pet but didn’t hear back until next day. In addition, no trash bags were stocked and the response time was hours before we heard back. It was also a bit cold in the master bedroom so I’d recommend a space heater for use. Besides that, I highly recommend this place! We will definitely be coming back here!

If you want to stay in a gorgeous home overlooking the desert with stars dripping from the sky, come book a stay at this luxuriously appointed home! Clean and comfortable with all the amenities you could want, 5 ????? is a modest assessment. Close to all the fun day trips you could want and quaint restaurants, or stay at the house and grill up some steaks and star watch from the hot bubbling jacuzzi. You really could not ask for more!

I simply CANNOT say enough good things about this place!! First, it is EXACTLY as gorgeous and lush in person as it is in pictures. 100% accurate. But second (and more important), it honestly exceeded expectations. The decor and guest amenities are both stunning and smart, but it's the VIBE that wins you. The house is situated at the top of a hill surrounded by gorgeous desert landscape and boulders -- super private, but still just minutes from civilization and anything you need. You're not alone in the mountains, but you feel like you are. And it's QUIET. I mean, truly silent. So incredibly peaceful I could hear myself breathe. Which, frankly, was excellent medicine. The views from every angle of the house are magnificent, but the front porch is ... well. I could have slept there and been happy. It's just epic. The kitchen is well-appointed and a pleasure to cook in. Sit it. Eat in. The beds are lush and the access to the outdoors is dreamy. I wanted to move in permanently. It's a HOME, and it welcomes you. Seriously. And the hosts are easy and quick to respond. There is NOTHING lacking here. Worth every penny. Will be back as soon as I have an excuse.

So glad I booked this space. If you are planning a trip in the area look no further. It’s nestled in its own little space surrounded by desert boulders. The location and property gives the feeling of being in the open desert with all the amenities of a comfortable chic home. Which was great for my family as some of us were outdoorsy and some preferred staying inside. The hot tub was great especially for stargazing at night. Beds, linens, & pillows were comfortable and the space was clean and welcoming. I loved the thoughtful kitchen & dining amenities. We cooked during our stay and it had everything we needed - essential spices, pots & pans, and beautiful serve-ware that elevated the dinner vibe. Thoughtful touches for our dogs like a dog bed & disposable poo bags. The space was even better in person and would definitely stay here again.
