Juniper Cabin | Yucca Valley | Homestead Modern, LLC

*Under new management of Homestead Modern* Welcome to Juniper Cabin, a beautifully designed and relaxing vacation home, located in a unique, underdeveloped area of the Mojave Hi-desert, that borders Joshua Tree National Park.

Originally built in the 1940s, this charming 800 sq ft, one-bedroom, one-bathroom cabin was lovingly remodeled by a local artist and filmmaker couple, blending the original homestead style with modern aesthetics to create a cozy and stylish ambiance that blends perfectly with the surrounding desert landscape.

Juniper Cabin is the ideal choice for couples or young families seeking a peaceful and intimate retreat. Whether you want to relax in the heated cedar pool under the stars, enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, mountain biking or rock climbing, Juniper Cabin offers a unique and unforgettable experience that will make your stay in Joshua Tree truly special.

The cabin takes its name from the ancient-growth Juniper Trees that surround the property, providing a sense of remote seclusion while being just minutes away from local stores, bars, and restaurants, like La Copine and the world famous Pappy & Harriet’s.
