-- 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 Spellbound. 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 this 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.

Like living in a dream!
My husband and I stayed at Spellbound for our first trip to Joshua Tree and it was such a beautiful property and peaceful experience! The house is stocked with everything you could possibly need if you plan to hit the grocery store and cook at home like we did. There is a grocery store just about 15-20 minutes away and a convenience store even closer. Even with being so close to town, the property is very secluded and on several private acres that are protected by a security gate, so you feel like you are way out in the desert but you also feel very safe. The home had several books about the area and the national park, which we appreciated because it was nice learning about the history of the homestead. Floor to ceiling windows on one entire side of the home and the bathtub and outdoor shower made us feel like we were immersed in nature even when we were inside. Nothing has been spared in amenities and attentiveness to needs. All we had to do was send a text if we needed anything. For example, we couldn't figure out how to get the refrigerator to make ice so the property managers delivered two bags of ice to us right away, which was so thoughtful and unexpected. We had a few other questions during our stay and the response was timely. Every comfort has been thought of inside, and outside....WOW! The spa/pool was clean and easy to use and at night my husband would relax in the spa just a few feet away from me while I wrapped myself in the provided outdoor blankets and sat around the beautiful in-ground fire pit. It was nice that we could be doing different things and still be close enough to each other to talk. There is no light pollution there and no other houses close by so spending our nights outside stargazing was spiritual, relaxing, and transcending. Spellbound is the perfect name for the property. You won't be disappointed!

Wow, we had the perfect vacation. I read the reviews on this house that the picture doesn’t show how beautiful this house is. And they are completely right! by the pictures It seems like an amazing house but in real life it’s much much more beautiful than the pictures and they thought of All the right things and every little thing to make us comfortable in the house.

The modern design and layout of this place is stunning—everything flows together beautifully. The Sonos sound system was perfect for setting the mood, but the real star of the show was definitely the amazing pool and spa area where we spent most of our time relaxing and enjoying the desert vibes. The location is incredible - so private and peaceful, almost without any neighbors in sight, which made stargazing at night absolutely magical. Love how the outdoor space lets you really soak in the desert atmosphere while still enjoying all the luxuries of a high-end home. This place is seriously the perfect mix of modern comfort and desert serenity. We intend to come back here and also try out the other Homestead Modern properties!
- Review Date: 10/27/2024
We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the stunning design and a chance to relax and soak in the beautiful desert vibes. We can’t wait to welcome you back, as well as our other Homestead Modern properties. Safe travels until then!

Words cannot describe this home and the pictures do not do it justice. This home was incredible! Every detail was thought of and accounted for at this property, from extra supplies to beautiful decor, which made it easy to feel right at home. The indoor/outdoor feel made the property even bigger as we spent most of our time on the patio or in the pool. The stars at night were incredible and the sun rise and sun set were exactly what you expect in Joshua Tree area. There is a fantastic restaurant, La Copine, just down the road that is a must try. The property is about 20 min from Joshua Tree city which makes it accessible yet still far enough out to be fully private. The host was also very responsive to a minor issue (door lock battery dying) and gave some great local recommendations upon request. Would recommend this AirBnB with no hesitation!

My wife and I loved our time at Spellbound. We spent a week there and hardly left the property. The cleanliness, attention to detail, and the amenities were first rate. Homestead Modern were professional, accommodating, great with instructions and quick to respond with questions. The pool and spa were amazing and the landscape of Joshua Trees and surrounding views were surreal. Quiet, peaceful solitude paired with 5 star modern accommodations.

We had a comfortable and relaxing stay. Isolated and remote, but with all the comforts of a luxury resort. One of the nicest properties we’ve ever stayed at. The pool patio and living area was perfect for enjoying the beautiful desert. We look forward to returning again.

This place was great. It was even better than the pictures in person which rarely happens. Great having the pool and hot tub for watching stars. Felt very private and comfortable. Came with all the amenities you’d hope for. Will come back

Cette maison a bouleversé nos plans de voyage car quelques jours après notre départ nous y retournons ! Un petit coin de paradis ou se conjuguent la modernité et l'authenticité. Le système son autour de la piscine créé à lui même un scénario digne des plus beaux films...et le reste sera pour vous à découvrir !

We are so happy to hear you thought the home was beautiful but so sad to see a 4 star review. We did not see you ever reached out to us during your stay. Next time feel free to reach out we are always ready to make any stay, 5 stars. We hope you visit again.

Omgggg! JUST what we needed! Two tired teachers looking to rest and reconnect. Wow. This place is perfect. Great location- tucked away in a town outside Joshua Tree - with beautiful views and well-stocked amenities. Pool was clean and linens were fresh. The mattress was so comfy! Communication was top tier (responsive and friendly). We will be back! Thank you Homestead for helping our summer break be peaceful ???

I’ve been coming to this area for years, and this is another great location if you’re looking for peace and quiet with all the luxuries. Homestead Modern has tons of beautiful properties. I’ve been a returning customer of theirs for years.

This house was absolutely gorgeous. The only problem was, in the height of summer, there were THOUSANDS of ants in the kitchen. The managers were willing to refund us the cleaning fee but it was after a bit of haggling. We only asked for the refund because we cleaned the entire kitchen (counters, floors, drawers, utensils) twice in our three day stay.

I'm glad you loved the house! However, I want to address the ant issue for the sake of future guests. When we came to assist and requested photos, we observed only a few ants, not thousands. It seemed like food had been left inside and outside, and the doors were open during your stay, which we do not recommend in the summer. Rest assured, there is no ant invasion in this home, but ants may enter if doors are left open for extended periods, especially in the kitchen during the summer.

The first thing that I want to say is that the Homestead Modern team is what every hospitality company should aspire to be. They truly went above and beyond to ensure that we had the best experience. We will only be staying at Homestead Modern properties in Joshua Tree from now on. There were a few hiccups with our stay that were complete outliers and the team addressed them immediately and effectively. The one I will call out is that our electricity went out on the last night for 20 minutes, but there isn’t much the team could do and they had communicated ahead of time that this could be a potential problem. On to the property, it is absolutely gorgeous. The kitchen was fully stocked (they had global knives!), the beds were comfortable, the living room was a dream, and the outdoor space was nearly everything we wanted. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. If you are thinking about staying here, book it immediately!

This was a spontaneous trip booked with my boyfriend. Finishing work we were one hour away. Booking was immediately confirmed and sent all the necessary information for us to feel safe and comfortable. Clear instructions. The pictures don’t make Justine to how beautiful this place is. Everything feels thought through, beautifully kept and non spared on expenses on the quality. This place has everything you could possibly want. We had nothing on us, since it was a last minute vacation and we felt like at home. Didn’t miss a thing. Magical time. Looking forward to our next stay and bring our friends with us.

Our stay was just what we needed. It was the best staycation we could have had. Our kids loved the property and the pool. The desert is our favorite place to retreat when we need a moment to re-group and relax. We would love to stay again in the future. Thank you!!! :)

Absolutely loved my stay in Landers! The homestead is stunning and very well equipped. It is very peaceful, remote and a good place to unplug and get away from it all. The hosts are very responsive, professional and accommodating. The Integratron is only a couple miles away and I highly recommend booking a sound bath. Thank you again for the hospitality!

Awesome stay. Honestly, this place is a steal for the price. The al fresco set up with the patio doors, ample outdoor furniture, outdoor speakers, and pool / hot tub was perfect. Ample amenities and nice kitchen appliances made cooking fun. It felt quite private and secluded! Our dogs loved it. We never left the property. Close enough to JT and the park!

My boyfriend & I wanted to do a staycation and also celebrate our fur baby’s 10th birthday! Glad to know they’re a pet-friendly place & if your dog is a service animal, there’s no fee! The place will make you want to pretend to record a video and say “hi mtv, welcome to my crib!”… The place is super modern & gorgeous ! You’ll seriously want to spend time in every section of the place there. Sono surround sounds sets the mood with either watching tv or playing music . Cooking in the middle of the kitchen makes you feel like a top notch chef star. The bathrooms are lovely and one of them has a cute tub and even outdoor shower ! Let’s talk about the backyard, you’ll love the pool/jacuzzi with a view of so much private land and all the beautiful plants there. Such a beautiful & peaceful place to be, also they’re so responsive and has great hospitality. They had their sweet manager Smitha come personally deliver us a care package of a bottle of high-end mezcal & snacks ! I’ll def be back !

Spellbound is a MUST stay! The beds were so comfortable with nice linens and extra blankets and pillows, the towels were plush and the bathrooms had all toiletries needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, pots/pans, seasonings, oil and coffee. The house and grounds were even prettier in person. Very private feeling with a beautiful landscape to admire while using the outdoor amenities. The hot tub was clean and perfect for some cool nights. All the touches throughout the house were so nice, we will definitely be back! Highly Recommend!

Our weekend stay at Spellbound was truly magical. The property is so beautiful with many Joshua trees. We enjoyed strolling around the acreage. The home is well-appointed with so many thoughtful details; good quality sheets and towels (for bath and pool), cooking basics (oil, spices, etc), yoga mats, and bath products including makeup remover. They even welcomed our dog with a bed, potty bags, and a lint roller. The home itself is beautifully designed. Each window creates a beautiful picture of the surrounding area. We were able to go to Joshua Tree for a few hours and stop in town afterward for lunch. Then back to Spellbound for yoga and hot tub under the stars. The owners were helpful and super responsive to the questions we had before and during our stay. We are definitely going back.

Spellbound Spot
Staying here was like stepping into a desert dream! This place has got it all – from a heated pool and spa to an electric piano and speakers pumping tunes throughout. The open layout and big windows make you feel connected to the desert magic outside, with stunning sunsets and wide-open spaces. The kitchen is stacked with everything you need, and there's a cool outdoor dining area with a fire pit on a 5-acre property. They've thought of everything, from a record player with local tunes to a telescope for stargazing. Plus, it's close to Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneertown. It's not just a place to stay; it's a whole desert experience. Shoutout to Homestead Modern for making this spot a true oasis in the Joshua Tree scene!
