– ACTIVITIES/ATTRACTIONS –

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 Yucca Hut. 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.

Listen, if you’re a person who creates a wishlist before making a decision on an Airbnb selection and this one is on your list. BOOK IT. Don’t procrastinate any further, don’t keep revising the list. Book this one. The pictures are gorgeous but the grandeur of this places is hard to capture. It’s the best Airbnb in the desert. Do yourself a favor and stay here - soak in the hot tub, give names to all of the plants at night that are beautifully lit and sunbathe in front of the gigantic sliding doors in the impeccably designed living room. We’ll be back.

We're thrilled to hear that our home exceeded your expectations and that you had such a memorable experience. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another amazing stay. Thank you again for the kind words!

We had a great stay at the Yucca Hut. I have stayed at many Airbnbs in the high desert and this by far was the best. The location is perfect and the property is beautiful. The design of the home is stunning and thoughtful. It’s clear that the experience of the guest was considered in the details of the space, from the handmade custom wood furnishings, to the curated artwork, while also being comfortable and inviting. We hope to return and will recommend to friends.
- Review Date: 11/2/2024

A fantastic stay. A beatiful, clean, and modern house on a large piece of property with all the amenities you want in the high desert. A hot tub and cold plunge, a hammock structure, etc. Very short drive to Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneertown. We were recommended this listing by a close friend and it exceeded our expectations. Will definitely return to stay soon!
- Review Date: 10/28/2024

Worth every penny, honestly seems too good to be true. Beautiful home, would recommend over any Joshua tree bnb.
- Review Date: 10/16/2024

We’re so glad you felt your stay was worth every penny! It means a lot to hear that you’d recommend us over other places in Joshua Tree. We hope to welcome you back.

I had a fantastic stay at Yucca Hut. The home was just like the pictures, beautifully designed and decorated. I loved the way it felt homey and warm without being cluttered. My favorite parts were the views from all the windows in the main living area and kitchen along with the hot tub in the morning and night. The AC also kept us cool during the heat without issue. For those staying with dogs, the property is not fenced so you’ll still have to keep them on leash. Even on leash, my dogs got cacti stuck in their paws multiple times - they’re all over the yard. I do love how the property is dog friendly inside and not strict like some other properties who don’t allow dogs on their furniture. This property provides a sheet you can lay down for them which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this property. It was as beautiful and magical as the pictures show.
- Review Date: 10/2/2024

We're thrilled you enjoyed the design, the views, and of course, the hot tub magic. As for the cacti—well, welcome to the desert! :cactus: It's part of the charm, right? While we can't fence out nature (those prickly guys were here first), we do recommend keeping the pups on a leash and maybe giving their paws a quick once-over after each adventure. We're glad you appreciated the dog-friendly touches inside though! Come back anytime for more beautiful views—and maybe some dog booties next time.

I wish I had never left. The longer I was there, the more the space impacted me. I e never felt so creative and so aligned. The bonus was the outdoor shower (I never even needed to use the indoor bathroom), the sliding doors, the shaded patio, the hammock, sunken jacuzzi, indoor fire place, and kitchen island. I could go on and on, I thought I’d use to the cabin (which is perfect) but would up spending most of my time in the main home. Staying was such a wonderful gift to myself
- Review Date: 8/31/2024

I sincerely enjoyed my visit at the Yucca Hut. We ended up extending our visit because we didn't want to leave! The cowboy tub was amazing, the hot tub was great, and the view was phenomenal. I really want to stay at the Yucca Hut again, but know I need to try Homestead Modern's other properties. Was perfect for a week of remote working.
- Review Date: 8/29/2024

Been in a Homestead house twice now and have no regrets.

Great stay! Beautiful space, has everything you could need.
- Review Date: 8/5/2024

I had a very good time at Yucca Hut! Nice private area and cute house. The bedrooms were so spacious and comfortable, especially the softest pillows I've ever used. The kitchen mostly had everything I needed. The best thing to make me want to comeback next time was that I could see the sunset and stargaze outdoor. The host was responsive and helped me with any questions we had. I definitely will come back!!!
- Review Date: 8/2/2024

Beautiful place! Great views both at night and during the day. My favorite part was the separate back room with the work space.
- Review Date: 7/28/2024

One of the best airbnbs I've ever stayed in. The decor is immaculate. The amount of windows gives you amazing views of the sunrise/sunset if you aren't outside watching them. Kitchen was well stocked. The beds are comfortable. You couldn't ask for a more beautiful place to stay.
- Review Date: 7/19/2024

The property was stunning and just what we needed for our trip. We definitely will be coming back here soon!

My wife and I had a wonderful stay. The home was well equipped with everything we needed. The home was very clean and had a great selection of books to browse through. Would highly recommend.
- Review Date: 2/21/2024

Great house and amenities. Beautiful sunrises every morning.
- Review Date: 2/17/2024

We will absolutely stay here again. The linens and towels were clean and of good quality, the bed and pillows as well. So comfy. The place itself is incredibly beautiful, sleek and modern yet warm and extremely well appointed. From laundry detergent to olive oil, great quality spices, coffee and sparkling water. Also, there’s not a long list of tasks you’re meant to complete before you leave in addition to paying a cleaning charge. I think they just ask you to run the dishwasher and leave your towels on the floor. Now let’s talk about the view. With wraparound sliding glass doors, waking up in the morning and walking into the kitchen was like walking into a painting, and the sunsets over the desert… We were in town for work so didn’t even fully get to use all the amenities. This is a great space for a romantic getaway, and is big enough for a family retreat. …there is even a whole other free standing bedroom in its own little outbuilding. Amazing place. LOVED it.

Our stay was amazing! Loved the hot tub and the closeness to Joshua Tree National Park. The home was beautiful and gave us a peaceful time.
- Review Date: 2/1/2024

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time at Homestead Modern. The property feels secluded and cozy, and is a short 10-15 min drive to the Joshua Tree entrance. The home is super clean and we loved the owners artwork, ceramics, and overall vibe of the interior! We were here during a January rainstorm and didn't have any difficultly with the property's unpaved road in a small sedan. We would definitely stay here again when we visit during the warmer months!

This was our fourth stay at Yucca Hut in the last year. Always a treat to stay here and sleep on the wonderful master bedroom mattress. Hands down the best bed I’ve ever slept in at a rental home or hotel. Wonderful kitchen too.
- Review Date: 12/12/2023

This home is amazing. The architectural design is beautiful, from the high ceilings, the concrete finishes, the exposed wood, to the amazing views through the expansive sliding glass doors. There was endless natural light. One of my favorite features was actually the round window near the entrance. The interior design was a combinations of modern minimal with Joshua Tree-esque touches. I noticed that the center piece tall cactus was the only cactus in the open concept kitchen/living/dining room which was a perfect touch that didn’t take away from the Joshua trees and cactuses in their natural desert environment that this property sits on. Overall the host was very responsive and polite. I mentioned that my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary so they went out of their way to drop off a complementary bottle of wine. Now that’s a host! Worth the stay. Don’t hesitate to book!

It was a lovely weekend end in this house. Spacious, full-equipped, and with a magnificent view, I totally recommend the location! We were also able to enjoy a late departure, that was really appreciated!
- Review Date: 10/26/2023

Yucca Hut is a gem in the desert. It's incredibly clean, very comfortable, organized, the layout of the property enhances privacy, well-designed and managed. Truly no notes! Hosts were responsive and helpful, really made my stay extra special.

This home was absolutely beautiful, the design felt luxury while still making us feel right at home. We are going to miss the simple beauties of surrounding nature as well as the home itself. We really loved this place!!

Such a thoughtful and simply beautiful place. The details and pieces are spot on perfect.

We had an excellent stay! Private location you feel like you’re in your own little desert bubble!
- Review Date: 9/8/2023

What a beautiful place to escape to. Thoughtfully planned indoor and outdoor spaces give this home lots of welcome topographical variety — we spent lots of time at the house and never got bored or felt like we were missing out on what the surroundings have to offer. It was all right there on the grounds. Furnishings are comfortable and expertly contrasted to a creative effect — vintage and modern, antique with sleek. It’s an inspired space that inspires. This was my second stay at a Homestead Modern property and I’ll look for their listings first again in the future.
- Review Date: 9/4/2023

Paradise! Certainly will be back again - hopefully for a longer stay. This is a house carefully considered for true relaxation. Thanks for the recharge.
- Review Date: 8/28/2023

WOW… is all I have to say! I had such an incredible stay in this beautiful space. My friend and I decided to take a last minute trip to the desert to recharge for the weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The space is even more beautiful in person — the pictures don’t do it justice. We spent the majority of our time relaxing in the hammocks, cowboy tub (so cool!!), and hot tub. I’ve been to Joshua Tree many times and I think this might be the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at. Will definitely be back and looking forward to booking with Homestead Modern again!
- Review Date: 8/8/2023

i really can’t say enough about this place. it’s even more beautiful (and bigger) in person. the property is amazing and the house is situated to take advantage of the amazing desert views. the cottage was great for my writing partner who spent her days working there. super clear communication from hosts from start to finish. homestead modern management team is great and i look forward to booking another of their properties when i return to the desert. amazing experience!

- Review Date: 7/24/2023

The Yucca Hut is the perfect oasis in the hi-desert. The home is perfectly designed to offer comfort and peace. The beautiful space and thoughtful amenities allow for such a restful time. We loved soaking in the cowboy tub as the sun set and drinking coffee on the patio as the sun came up. Would highly recommend the Yucca Hut to friends and will visit again soon!
- Review Date: 7/18/2023

This place was amazing, we really enjoyed our time here! It was easy to find and the check in/out process went smooth. The amenities were great - really enjoyed the cowboy tub, the hot tub, and the covered hammock area. The place was very bright and airy, while having multiple exits to the backyard to make the transition from inside to outside very seamless. This place is very aesthetic, perfectly integrated with the landscape, and peaceful.

Uno de los más gustosos AIRBNB en los estuve. Me encanto el interior de la casa con todos los detalles para vivir en ella.
- Review Date: 7/3/2023

Absolutely beautiful home in the desert. Felt secluded and private, but still close enough to easily run into town if needed. The design of the home is so thoughtful and dreamy, would love to visit again!
- Review Date: 6/24/2023

Absolutely delightful stay! It truly elevates the concept of a private retreat. The owner's unique style graces every corner, blending artistic design with functionality. Each space, from the living room to the outdoors, ignites creativity and connection. Our whole experience felt private and intimate. We were free to be alone with ourselves and the stars. The house is well distanced from neighboring properties. Elegant privacy fences make you seem even further. Homestead Modern was responsive and proactive. We will definitely stay here again.
- Review Date: 6/18/2023

This was our third stay in the last year to this property and it did not disappoint. Really top notch views from the main room. Great hot tub and hammock shelter. Linens are top quality and the home is exactly as pictured. We hope to be back soon!
- Review Date: 5/16/2023

We enjoyed being here so much that we barely even left. We spent time relaxing, playing games, cooking, etc. in the many serene indoor and outdoor hang-out spots.
- Review Date: 5/12/2023

We had the loveliest stay at The Yucca Hut! The place is so beautiful and more spacious than the picture. The house is still private without being too far from the main street. The host was very responsive when the shower wasn't working and had someone come in and fix it immediately. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Joshua Tree!
- Review Date: 5/6/2023

Outside shower did not work. No late check out. Otherwise great place.
- Review Date: 4/24/2023

Hi Garrett! Glad you enjoyed your stay overall. We always try to give a late checkout when we can, but there was another guest checking in that day. So sorry! The shower valves are a little hard to turn and we will be replacing those with easier-to-operate versions soon!

We loved staying here. Hot tub and desert surroundings were lovely. It felt very private. So many cute rabbits hopping around! Beds and linens were very nice. We had a great stay.
- Review Date: 4/17/2023

Our stay at Yucca Hut was relaxing and inspiring! The house itself is comfortable and decorated thoughtfully and beautifully, and has everything you need - it felt like home but better. Little touches everywhere make it feel warm and cozy, like the sonos, fireplace, cozy daybed, and lovely ceramics and prints. We loved using the hot tub on chilly mornings with our coffee. There are so many great spots to enjoy the outdoors, all with very cool chairs. The location is great - close to downtown Yucca Valley AND Joshua Tree and just a hop skip to Pappys. We can’t wait to stay here again!

- Review Date: 3/30/2023

We stayed in the hot tub for 3 hours watching the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen. If I could give this place 6 stars I would.
- Review Date: 3/30/2023

We recently stayed at the Yucca Hut, and overall it was a positive experience. The location was convenient, providing quick access to Joshua Tree National Park, and the modern design of the space was a great touch. The stocked kitchen made meal preparation a breeze. The expansive outdoor space offered a breathtaking view of the desert landscape. The cozy atmosphere created by the fireplace was a pleasant addition after a long day of hiking. However, there were issues that detracted from our overall enjoyment. We found pet and human hair from a previous occupant. Despite reporting the issue to Homestead Modern's support team, our complaint went unanswered, and we felt that our concerns were not taken seriously. While some inquiries received prompt responses, the customer support team was less than friendly at times. Overall, we would recommend the Yucca Hut to others, but suggest that Homestead Modern improves its customer service to ensure guests feel heard and valued.
- Review Date: 3/13/2023

We are happy you enjoyed the house, it is one of our favorites! We are so sorry you felt we were unresponsive, looking at our messaging with you we responded to each inquiry within 20 minutes and even offered to come out and assist which we didn't get a response on. The only item you mentioned being unhappy with was the dog hair on the rug. We feel horrible about that and we strive to be more careful about that for all future guests.

We had such a wonderful experience here! The space was beautiful, spacious, clean and cozy. Everything we hoped for and more. The kitchen was a great space, with everything you’ll need. The fireplace and dimmable lighting made the space feel like home. The hot tub was a nice addition as well, especially if you’re planning to do plenty of hiking. Highly recommend, and would definitely visit again!
- Review Date: 3/5/2023

Best trip my girlfriend and I have ever had, can’t describe how amazing this place is 10/10 recommend, incredible experience
- Review Date: 2/17/2023

Our stay was fantastic. The location is a short 15 min or so drive to the closest park entrance and less than 10 to the downtown area. The property felt secluded and private but not super isolated. The pictures are accurate and the check-in/check-out was seamless. Very much enjoyed the hot tub in the mornings and evenings, the Sonos surround sound in the house, the indoor fireplace, and the BBQ on the porch. Beautiful place, would highly recommend.
- Review Date: 2/14/2023

We can’t say enough good things about the Yucca Hut! If you are into setting the vibes with dimmed lights, music, and gorgeous views - nothing beats this place. Our favorite moments were watching the sunrise perfectly from the kitchen every morning. We will be back!
- Review Date: 1/31/2023

Stayed 3 nights at the Homestead Modern and has the most relaxing and peaceful time here. The location is very private so at night you hear little to no noice. The house was stocked full of anything that you would need, either pots and pans, special coffee mugs, cutting boards, etc. The design and look is inviting and relaxing. We ended every night sitting by the most beautiful fire place. Highly recommend. Oh and the spa feature was a plus as well!
- Review Date: 1/27/2023

A beautifully made up home with great attention to detail with fixtures and furniture. It's an Inspiring home if anyone is interested in home design. The bonus cabin is just as chic as the main house. The hot tub at sunset was a great way to relax. Overall the house is well designed but comfortable with an elevated viewpoint. A great mix of handmade art, vintage items and modern elements. I look very much forward to staying here again.

Excellent place.
- Review Date: 11/28/2022

This place was even better in person than the already beautiful pictures. The location was perfect, within 10 min to all our favorite food, with a very drivable dirt road to the house (far less bumpy/pothole-y than typical). The layout of the space is very well considered, and all of the furniture was very well built, with particular consideration to material choices. The fireplace was a dream, and waking up every morning to light pouring through the wall of windows was nothing short of heavenly. 10/10 would stay again. Thank you homestead modern!

This house is situated an easy 20 minute drive to the west entrance of Joshua Tree. Do you ever need to leave the house? No!

- Review Date: 6/27/2022

Wow! We had such a fantastic stay here for my partner’s birthday weekend. The home was so beautifully designed and felt like such a magical escape. So many thoughtful details: we were particularly obsessed with the lighting and dimmer switches on every light! The super comfortable bed, the beautiful furniture and art…Cannot say enough about how much the design elevated our entire experience. The hot tub was amazing (even had a cool convenient dock for the cover), as was the fun cowboy pool. We took multiple outdoor showers and enjoyed the sunset around us. The views were amazing. The BBQ and kitchen were so fun to make a birthday dinner. They supplied oil and some spices, and some coffee and seltzer! What a treat! If you’re doing some cooking you may want to bring your own vinegar and other staples, etc. We spent most of our time relaxing in the hammock house, listening to the birds, and enjoying the privacy. We lucked out one night with a *meteor shower* and sat outside in one of the many cool seating areas to enjoy it. Our pup loved it too! They were so thoughtful leaving out sheets for her and waste bags. The hosts have been great communicators, answering our questions so promptly and kindly. Easy check-in/out. We cannot wait to return to this peaceful and elegant home. Made for a special vacation we will not forget. Thank you!!

This was the perfect spot for a relaxing desert getaway. The design of the place is impeccable -- every piece is its own sculptural moment. Beautiful views and lots of desert plants surround the property. We fully enjoyed each area and amenity -- hanging out at the table with the big sliding door open, drinking coffee in the various outdoor areas, grilling, using the outdoor shower, and soaking in the hot tub and cowboy pool.

Really well designed house with most all the amenities we needed for a midweek stay! Wifi was speedy enough for two people to have video calls, and we loved relaxing on the comfy daybed or in the hot tub in the evening. The Cowboy tub was fun too! Wish we had caught the outdoor shower was off for the season. A few maintenance issues cropped up in our first couple of days but the team was always really helpful about getting most problems solved, or we were able to make do with some easy workarounds! Nice and quiet spot with just a few neighbors, comfy bed, and charming touches around the house.

This place is such a gem. The house is situated in a more private, spacious area surrounded by beautiful desert plants. Very quiet neighborhood with not much traffic so you really get immersed into the serene life in the desert. House is beautifully decorated, clean, and well equipped for a super comfortable stay. Even the beds are so comfy! We ended up just staying home and not going out because this place really has everything you need, especially the hot tub and grill! I highly recommend this place and we’ll be back! Thank you for having us.

- Review Date: 11/29/2021

Everything about this house was fantastic! So comfortable and beautifully designed. We loved cooking in the kitchen and enjoyed wine by the hot tub in the evenings. Joshua Tree was a quick 20 minute drive away and the small local town was fun to shop and grab a drink. Most restaurants were closed Tuesday and Wednesday. We also enjoyed the local coffee in the mornings while watching the sunrise. We came out here to get a quick retreat from LA and it was everything we needed. I would definitely recommend staying here if you have a chance!
- Review Date: 11/20/2021

We had an absolutely phenomenal stay at this house! The property is great with many different places to hang out (cabin, hot tub, hammock) and there is a very swanky fireplace inside. There is a ton of attention to detail and design at this house that really made the trip stand out. The beds are incredibly comfortable and viewing the Joshua Trees from the hot tub at night was amazing. The house is also close to town but remote enough to feel pretty isolated. I would definitely recommend this property!
- Review Date: 11/19/2021

We greatly enjoyed our stay. I normally prefer to rent a property from an individual, not a renting company, but here nothing bad to say. We have a great experience with Homestead and loved/appreciated everything about the property: the house, the layout, the furniture, the spa, the cowboy bath, the calm, etc. I highly recommend Yucca Hut and Homestead.

My wife and I stayed here for our first wedding anniversary! It was a great escape from the busy loud city life! House is super clean and well designed and decorated. The gas fire place was so convenient, the Sonos speaker system was very easy to pair with my iPad. The views are great - a TON of Joshua Trees on the property. Morning coffee in the hot tub followed up by an outdoor shower is life changing! Cannot recommend Homestead Modern enough!
- Review Date: 11/8/2021

This is a gorgeous and very clean house with an incredible hot tub, comfortable beds and bedding and on and on. Easily a five out of five experience. It’s close to joshua tree, yucca valley and pioneertown. The only minor drawback is that the house, while on a large lot, is not quite as isolated as I had hoped and is in a neighborhood. However, we never heard any of the neighbors and felt complete privacy and comfort the entire time. Incredible house!

You will not regret your stay here. A few of my favorite things: The epic panoramic views of Joshua Trees with magical sunrises and sunsets to match. The calming and simple interior design. Little pockets of peaceful sitting areas to read a book or have convos. Everything at your fingertips: spacious kitchen with all you need to cook (including my favorite the French press!), clean and pristine bathrooms with outdoor shower, fireplace, so much room for my golden retrievers to relax and cool off on the floor and the backyard was so inviting for socializing and bonding. The cowboy bath was a top favorite! After touring hot Joshua tree, it was so refreshing to dip and cool off in the cowboy bath!! The hot tub was perfect for stargazing at night!! The stars jumped out at you! We went when a heat wave hit SoCal and this bnb was the perfect home to escape to but also enjoy what the desert has to offer!! Highly recommend!! I’m def coming back in the fall!! Miss it already…

The Yucca Hut was one of the best desert Airbnbs my partner and I have ever stayed in. The folks at Homestead Modern are so kind and communicative. They've created a beautiful, impeccably decorated, super clean and comfortable home full of thoughtful details. The hot tub, cowboy tub, and outdoor shower were so fun to use. The stars at night are unreal. You really do feel like you're on your own little luxury ranch when you stay here. Can't recommend booking this stay enough!

This home was an absolute dream!!! Everything is so thoughtfully put together and we especially enjoyed the gorgeous views of the desert sunsets, the amazing fireplace, and the fully stocked modern kitchen. The location was perfect within a short drive to town while still feeling secluded. The bed was very comfortable and you will love all the attention to detail within this gorgeous home!
- Review Date: 4/25/2021

Absolutely one of my best Airbnb experiences. From the initial communication to the very comprehensive printed house manual on the counter, they seem to have thought of everything. The house is as beautiful as pictured and remarkably clean. It immediately felt like home (even better!), and was incredibly comfortable. So many different spaces, both indoor and outdoor, to experience and appreciate. The location was perfect. So convenient to Yucca Valley shops, Pioneertown, and Joshua Tree. Would most definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience the High Desert at its finest.
- Review Date: 4/20/2021

This was a wonderful getaway for after a year of being cooped up in our own home. The location was perfect - far enough from 62 to see the stars at night, and close enough for all the amenities and easy access to Joshua Tree National Park. I found myself prioritizing sunrise and sunset at the house because the views with all the desert around us were so beautiful. We enjoyed yoga in the cabin, hot tub under the stars, and afternoon reading in the hammocks (our dog enjoyed the shade structure too) while being visited intermittently by quails, rabbits, and even a roadrunner! It was our first time in the high desert, and we'll be sure to return!

Great home! Super well put together, and seemingly built by the owners. I admired the design hugely, and a good outdoor shower’s always cool. They responded super quick too! Highly recommend!

The space is thoughtfully curated and makes a perfect place for a desert retreat.

This place is a gem! We would return in heartbeat if we visit the area again. We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnb’s and this one is at the top of my favorites list. We enjoyed watching the sunrise from the patio and the hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. I can’t say enough of good things about this place.

Gorgeous views, amazing location, thoughtful and stylish house. Loved every minute of our stay at this property. Highly recommend the Yucca hut, and homestead modern overall. As for the property- The outdoor space is unbeatable! The layout of everything is artfully done, giving you amazing wide-open views of the gorgeous landscape but also keeping you sheltered/private and out of direct sight from other properties near by. And from inside the house, you still feel completely connected to the landscape. They put a lot of thought into this place and executed everything very well. The amenities are on point: beds and pillows are dreamy, towels are linens are high quality, you have all the basics to cook and feel right at home. They left nothing to want. And Homestead Modern was a wonderful host to work with. They were friendly and quick to respond, easy and welcoming. I will definitely book with them again. In summary, Yucca hut is the perfect open and airy, quiet, private, comfortable, and stylishly decorated getaway to experience the desert. Can’t wait to get back!

What a true delight this place is. Every single detail was stylishly done — with taste and originality. Seriously. Thoughtful and never pretentious, but always creative and beautiful. And then there are the views from every window. And the hot tub!!!! And hammock nook. Go. Enjoy their booklet on where they found all the stylish touches in the house. Cheers.

We had a rejuvenating stay, alternating between the hot tub (which sits beneath a beautiful view day ang night) and sun bathing on the wooden chairs nearby. Most comfortable beds and sheets, and loved the fireplace!

Obsessed with this place! The space is so beautiful and filled with gorgeous desert light throughout the day. The property is incredible. It was so nice to have the hot tub in the evening to watch sunset. The outdoor shower was lovely AND the location is perfect. Cannot wait to go back!

The Yucca Hut was the perfect destination to relax and enjoy plenty of functional outdoor space. For us, it was a temporary escape from Los Angeles, and it was even more relaxing than we planned. The rooms are as clean as they are well designed, and the thoughtful touches (succulents, books) give the entire house a homey feel. What made the experience truly special was spending time reading in the hammock and stargazing in the jacuzzi in the pitch black desert. A short drive to town and to a number of hikes, we felt remote enough to relax but close enough to activities for us to not feel like we were on an island. Overall, this experience was terrific and the hosts were communicative and easy to work with. Will book again!

Easily one of the best AirBNB places we have stayed at. The house is large and full of light. The design is way beyond the typical rental: from the layout, kitchen, and bedrooms and outdoor spaces (and there is plenty of beautiful outdoor spaces) -- this place is full of special touches. It's for the design lover, but really for everyone who appreciates a good home and a good host.
- Review Date: 1/19/2021

Wonderful place. The beauty of the landscape is ever present with lots of windows with great views. Lots of natural light inside. Nice jacuzzi. Cool back house bedroom. The lot is large and pretty. The "yard" portion of the grounds is a lovely, cool hang out space. Short drive to town.

As always, staying at a homestead modern property was amazing. Beautiful house and surrounding outdoor area. Responses were super fast, even over the holiday period. Great stay!
- Review Date: 12/26/2020

What are a great place to relax and unwind. The Yucca Hut is thoughtfully designed, very clean, a perfect size property for a family to have some elbow room and privacy with views of the surrounding desert. The hot tub and hut were great additions, and the design of the home and property have modern touches while fitting well with the surrounding landscape. The property has the feeling of being away from town while still being close enough for quick trips to the store. We look forward to renting again!

Listen, if you’re a person who creates a wishlist before making a decision on an Airbnb selection and this one is on your list. BOOK IT. Don’t procrastinate any further, don’t keep revising the list. Book this one. The pictures are gorgeous but the grandeur of this places is hard to capture. It’s the best Airbnb in the desert. Do yourself a favor and stay here - soak in the hot tub, give names to all of the plants at night that are beautifully lit and sunbathe in front of the gigantic sliding doors in the impeccably designed living room. We’ll be back.

We had a great stay at the Yucca Hut. I have stayed at many Airbnbs in the high desert and this by far was the best. The location is perfect and the property is beautiful. The design of the home is stunning and thoughtful. It’s clear that the experience of the guest was considered in the details of the space, from the handmade custom wood furnishings, to the curated artwork, while also being comfortable and inviting. We hope to return and will recommend to friends.

Review Date: 11/2/2024

A fantastic stay. A beatiful, clean, and modern house on a large piece of property with all the amenities you want in the high desert. A hot tub and cold plunge, a hammock structure, etc. Very short drive to Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneertown. We were recommended this listing by a close friend and it exceeded our expectations. Will definitely return to stay soon!

Review Date: 10/28/2024

Worth every penny, honestly seems too good to be true. Beautiful home, would recommend over any Joshua tree bnb.

Review Date: 10/16/2024

I had a fantastic stay at Yucca Hut. The home was just like the pictures, beautifully designed and decorated. I loved the way it felt homey and warm without being cluttered. My favorite parts were the views from all the windows in the main living area and kitchen along with the hot tub in the morning and night. The AC also kept us cool during the heat without issue. For those staying with dogs, the property is not fenced so you’ll still have to keep them on leash. Even on leash, my dogs got cacti stuck in their paws multiple times - they’re all over the yard. I do love how the property is dog friendly inside and not strict like some other properties who don’t allow dogs on their furniture. This property provides a sheet you can lay down for them which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this property. It was as beautiful and magical as the pictures show.

Review Date: 10/2/2024

I wish I had never left. The longer I was there, the more the space impacted me. I e never felt so creative and so aligned. The bonus was the outdoor shower (I never even needed to use the indoor bathroom), the sliding doors, the shaded patio, the hammock, sunken jacuzzi, indoor fire place, and kitchen island. I could go on and on, I thought I’d use to the cabin (which is perfect) but would up spending most of my time in the main home. Staying was such a wonderful gift to myself

Review Date: 8/31/2024

I sincerely enjoyed my visit at the Yucca Hut. We ended up extending our visit because we didn't want to leave! The cowboy tub was amazing, the hot tub was great, and the view was phenomenal. I really want to stay at the Yucca Hut again, but know I need to try Homestead Modern's other properties. Was perfect for a week of remote working.

Review Date: 8/29/2024

I had a very good time at Yucca Hut! Nice private area and cute house. The bedrooms were so spacious and comfortable, especially the softest pillows I've ever used. The kitchen mostly had everything I needed. The best thing to make me want to comeback next time was that I could see the sunset and stargaze outdoor. The host was responsive and helped me with any questions we had. I definitely will come back!!!

Review Date: 8/2/2024

One of the best airbnbs I've ever stayed in. The decor is immaculate. The amount of windows gives you amazing views of the sunrise/sunset if you aren't outside watching them. Kitchen was well stocked. The beds are comfortable. You couldn't ask for a more beautiful place to stay.

Review Date: 7/19/2024

Great host - responsive & helpful, perfect location - short drive to joshua tree, yucca valley, and pioneertown, and beautiful home - clean & had the exact amenities we were looking for. hope to stay at yucca hut again!

My wife and I had a wonderful stay. The home was well equipped with everything we needed. The home was very clean and had a great selection of books to browse through. Would highly recommend.

Review Date: 2/21/2024

We will absolutely stay here again. The linens and towels were clean and of good quality, the bed and pillows as well. So comfy. The place itself is incredibly beautiful, sleek and modern yet warm and extremely well appointed. From laundry detergent to olive oil, great quality spices, coffee and sparkling water. Also, there’s not a long list of tasks you’re meant to complete before you leave in addition to paying a cleaning charge. I think they just ask you to run the dishwasher and leave your towels on the floor. Now let’s talk about the view. With wraparound sliding glass doors, waking up in the morning and walking into the kitchen was like walking into a painting, and the sunsets over the desert… We were in town for work so didn’t even fully get to use all the amenities. This is a great space for a romantic getaway, and is big enough for a family retreat. …there is even a whole other free standing bedroom in its own little outbuilding. Amazing place. LOVED it.

Review Date: 2/11/2024

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time at Homestead Modern. The property feels secluded and cozy, and is a short 10-15 min drive to the Joshua Tree entrance. The home is super clean and we loved the owners artwork, ceramics, and overall vibe of the interior! We were here during a January rainstorm and didn't have any difficultly with the property's unpaved road in a small sedan. We would definitely stay here again when we visit during the warmer months!

Review Date: 1/27/2024

This was our fourth stay at Yucca Hut in the last year. Always a treat to stay here and sleep on the wonderful master bedroom mattress. Hands down the best bed I’ve ever slept in at a rental home or hotel. Wonderful kitchen too.

Review Date: 12/12/2023

This home is amazing. The architectural design is beautiful, from the high ceilings, the concrete finishes, the exposed wood, to the amazing views through the expansive sliding glass doors. There was endless natural light. One of my favorite features was actually the round window near the entrance. The interior design was a combinations of modern minimal with Joshua Tree-esque touches. I noticed that the center piece tall cactus was the only cactus in the open concept kitchen/living/dining room which was a perfect touch that didn’t take away from the Joshua trees and cactuses in their natural desert environment that this property sits on. Overall the host was very responsive and polite. I mentioned that my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary so they went out of their way to drop off a complementary bottle of wine. Now that’s a host! Worth the stay. Don’t hesitate to book!

It was a lovely weekend end in this house. Spacious, full-equipped, and with a magnificent view, I totally recommend the location! We were also able to enjoy a late departure, that was really appreciated!

Yucca Hut is a gem in the desert. It's incredibly clean, very comfortable, organized, the layout of the property enhances privacy, well-designed and managed. Truly no notes! Hosts were responsive and helpful, really made my stay extra special.

This home was absolutely beautiful, the design felt luxury while still making us feel right at home. We are going to miss the simple beauties of surrounding nature as well as the home itself. We really loved this place!!

Review Date: 10/5/2023

What a beautiful place to escape to. Thoughtfully planned indoor and outdoor spaces give this home lots of welcome topographical variety — we spent lots of time at the house and never got bored or felt like we were missing out on what the surroundings have to offer. It was all right there on the grounds. Furnishings are comfortable and expertly contrasted to a creative effect — vintage and modern, antique with sleek. It’s an inspired space that inspires. This was my second stay at a Homestead Modern property and I’ll look for their listings first again in the future.

Review Date: 9/4/2023

WOW… is all I have to say! I had such an incredible stay in this beautiful space. My friend and I decided to take a last minute trip to the desert to recharge for the weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The space is even more beautiful in person — the pictures don’t do it justice. We spent the majority of our time relaxing in the hammocks, cowboy tub (so cool!!), and hot tub. I’ve been to Joshua Tree many times and I think this might be the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at. Will definitely be back and looking forward to booking with Homestead Modern again!

Review Date: 8/8/2023

i really can’t say enough about this place. it’s even more beautiful (and bigger) in person. the property is amazing and the house is situated to take advantage of the amazing desert views. the cottage was great for my writing partner who spent her days working there. super clear communication from hosts from start to finish. homestead modern management team is great and i look forward to booking another of their properties when i return to the desert. amazing experience!

The Yucca Hut is the perfect oasis in the hi-desert. The home is perfectly designed to offer comfort and peace. The beautiful space and thoughtful amenities allow for such a restful time. We loved soaking in the cowboy tub as the sun set and drinking coffee on the patio as the sun came up. Would highly recommend the Yucca Hut to friends and will visit again soon!

Review Date: 7/18/2023

This place was amazing, we really enjoyed our time here! It was easy to find and the check in/out process went smooth. The amenities were great - really enjoyed the cowboy tub, the hot tub, and the covered hammock area. The place was very bright and airy, while having multiple exits to the backyard to make the transition from inside to outside very seamless. This place is very aesthetic, perfectly integrated with the landscape, and peaceful.

Review Date: 7/7/2023

Absolutely beautiful home in the desert. Felt secluded and private, but still close enough to easily run into town if needed. The design of the home is so thoughtful and dreamy, would love to visit again!

Review Date: 6/24/2023

Absolutely delightful stay! It truly elevates the concept of a private retreat. The owner's unique style graces every corner, blending artistic design with functionality. Each space, from the living room to the outdoors, ignites creativity and connection. Our whole experience felt private and intimate. We were free to be alone with ourselves and the stars. The house is well distanced from neighboring properties. Elegant privacy fences make you seem even further. Homestead Modern was responsive and proactive. We will definitely stay here again.

Review Date: 6/18/2023

This was our third stay in the last year to this property and it did not disappoint. Really top notch views from the main room. Great hot tub and hammock shelter. Linens are top quality and the home is exactly as pictured. We hope to be back soon!

Review Date: 5/16/2023

We had the loveliest stay at The Yucca Hut! The place is so beautiful and more spacious than the picture. The house is still private without being too far from the main street. The host was very responsive when the shower wasn't working and had someone come in and fix it immediately. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Joshua Tree!

Outside shower did not work. No late check out. Otherwise great place.

We loved staying here. Hot tub and desert surroundings were lovely. It felt very private. So many cute rabbits hopping around! Beds and linens were very nice. We had a great stay.

Review Date: 4/17/2023

Our stay at Yucca Hut was relaxing and inspiring! The house itself is comfortable and decorated thoughtfully and beautifully, and has everything you need - it felt like home but better. Little touches everywhere make it feel warm and cozy, like the sonos, fireplace, cozy daybed, and lovely ceramics and prints. We loved using the hot tub on chilly mornings with our coffee. There are so many great spots to enjoy the outdoors, all with very cool chairs. The location is great - close to downtown Yucca Valley AND Joshua Tree and just a hop skip to Pappys. We can’t wait to stay here again!

Review Date: 4/7/2023

We recently stayed at the Yucca Hut, and overall it was a positive experience. The location was convenient, providing quick access to Joshua Tree National Park, and the modern design of the space was a great touch. The stocked kitchen made meal preparation a breeze. The expansive outdoor space offered a breathtaking view of the desert landscape. The cozy atmosphere created by the fireplace was a pleasant addition after a long day of hiking. However, there were issues that detracted from our overall enjoyment. We found pet and human hair from a previous occupant. Despite reporting the issue to Homestead Modern's support team, our complaint went unanswered, and we felt that our concerns were not taken seriously. While some inquiries received prompt responses, the customer support team was less than friendly at times. Overall, we would recommend the Yucca Hut to others, but suggest that Homestead Modern improves its customer service to ensure guests feel heard and valued.

Review Date: 3/13/2023

We had such a wonderful experience here! The space was beautiful, spacious, clean and cozy. Everything we hoped for and more. The kitchen was a great space, with everything you’ll need. The fireplace and dimmable lighting made the space feel like home. The hot tub was a nice addition as well, especially if you’re planning to do plenty of hiking. Highly recommend, and would definitely visit again!

Review Date: 3/5/2023

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was thoughtfully and creatively decorated, the beds were exceptionally comfortable, the hosts were wonderfully responsive, and I felt more like we were staying at a friend’s place than renting an Airbnb. Recommend!

Review Date: 2/22/2023

Our stay was fantastic. The location is a short 15 min or so drive to the closest park entrance and less than 10 to the downtown area. The property felt secluded and private but not super isolated. The pictures are accurate and the check-in/check-out was seamless. Very much enjoyed the hot tub in the mornings and evenings, the Sonos surround sound in the house, the indoor fireplace, and the BBQ on the porch. Beautiful place, would highly recommend.

Review Date: 2/14/2023

We can’t say enough good things about the Yucca Hut! If you are into setting the vibes with dimmed lights, music, and gorgeous views - nothing beats this place. Our favorite moments were watching the sunrise perfectly from the kitchen every morning. We will be back!

Review Date: 1/31/2023

Stayed 3 nights at the Homestead Modern and has the most relaxing and peaceful time here. The location is very private so at night you hear little to no noice. The house was stocked full of anything that you would need, either pots and pans, special coffee mugs, cutting boards, etc. The design and look is inviting and relaxing. We ended every night sitting by the most beautiful fire place. Highly recommend. Oh and the spa feature was a plus as well!

Review Date: 1/27/2023

A beautifully made up home with great attention to detail with fixtures and furniture. It's an Inspiring home if anyone is interested in home design. The bonus cabin is just as chic as the main house. The hot tub at sunset was a great way to relax. Overall the house is well designed but comfortable with an elevated viewpoint. A great mix of handmade art, vintage items and modern elements. I look very much forward to staying here again.

This was our second stay at this house and we can’t wait to come back again soon. Super comfortable beds and nice kitchen. Highlight was the rainbow as we were packing up; easily the brightest I’ve ever seen!

Review Date: 12/12/2022

This place was even better in person than the already beautiful pictures. The location was perfect, within 10 min to all our favorite food, with a very drivable dirt road to the house (far less bumpy/pothole-y than typical). The layout of the space is very well considered, and all of the furniture was very well built, with particular consideration to material choices. The fireplace was a dream, and waking up every morning to light pouring through the wall of windows was nothing short of heavenly. 10/10 would stay again. Thank you homestead modern!

Review Date: 11/26/2022

The experience lived up to my expectations, a beautiful modern home with all the amenities and amazing views. It’s close to town but still get remote feeling. Communication with Homestead Modern team was timely and through, would definitely recommend and come back in the future !

A lot of care was clearly put into the design of this property and we really enjoyed our stay. We hope to come back with friends and family soon. Especially loved how the hot tub is down low and protected from the evening wind and the great day bed in the main room by the circular window.

This house is situated an easy 20 minute drive to the west entrance of Joshua Tree. Do you ever need to leave the house? No! Beautiful grounds are covered with Joshua trees and Cholla, wildlife roams around morning and night like clockwork! Homestead modern were responsive and helpful, the house is well supplied with amenities and a comfortable bed!

Review Date: 9/30/2022

Wow! We had such a fantastic stay here for my partner’s birthday weekend. The home was so beautifully designed and felt like such a magical escape. So many thoughtful details: we were particularly obsessed with the lighting and dimmer switches on every light! The super comfortable bed, the beautiful furniture and art…Cannot say enough about how much the design elevated our entire experience. The hot tub was amazing (even had a cool convenient dock for the cover), as was the fun cowboy pool. We took multiple outdoor showers and enjoyed the sunset around us. The views were amazing. The BBQ and kitchen were so fun to make a birthday dinner. They supplied oil and some spices, and some coffee and seltzer! What a treat! If you’re doing some cooking you may want to bring your own vinegar and other staples, etc. We spent most of our time relaxing in the hammock house, listening to the birds, and enjoying the privacy. We lucked out one night with a *meteor shower* and sat outside in one of the many cool seating areas to enjoy it. Our pup loved it too! They were so thoughtful leaving out sheets for her and waste bags. The hosts have been great communicators, answering our questions so promptly and kindly. Easy check-in/out. We cannot wait to return to this peaceful and elegant home. Made for a special vacation we will not forget. Thank you!!

This was the perfect spot for a relaxing desert getaway. The design of the place is impeccable -- every piece is its own sculptural moment. Beautiful views and lots of desert plants surround the property. We fully enjoyed each area and amenity -- hanging out at the table with the big sliding door open, drinking coffee in the various outdoor areas, grilling, using the outdoor shower, and soaking in the hot tub and cowboy pool.

Review Date: 5/10/2022

The attention to detail and design you can tell we're important in creating this house. Clean, beautiful, thoughtful, RELAXING. This home has everything you need to completely relax and unwind. Great location near so many things, not quite as secluded as I expected, but still very private!

Review Date: 4/16/2022

Great place, close to hikes & the park. Super cozy and welcoming. Can see other houses but very private from yard and hot tub. Kitchen not fully stocked with species so bring your own if cooking! House has a ton of great books and games to play. Perfect for a weekend getaway!

Review Date: 4/7/2022

As a designer, I appreciated the Yucca Hut's attention to detail - sleek kitchen and bath fixtures and artful furniture. We especially enjoyed the hot tub, cold plunge tub, fireplace, and amazing views of the high desert landscape.

Review Date: 4/4/2022

This is the perfect retreat for a weekend or a month! Simple and spacious with a sleek modern design. The beds are comfy, perfect jacuzzi for star gazing and the hammock out cove is the perfect spot for an afternoon nap after hiking. The accommodations are as promised, great location, and the flexibility and attentiveness from the host is A+. We will be back, thank you.

Review Date: 3/29/2022

The Yucca Hut is a great place to relax, hang out, watch the incredible sky at different times of day with the changing lights, observe the wildlife - we saw coyotes, roadrunners, jack rabbits - and get to the Park and lots of restaurants and bars in no time at all. It’s fantastic

Review Date: 2/27/2022

Really well designed house with most all the amenities we needed for a midweek stay! Wifi was speedy enough for two people to have video calls, and we loved relaxing on the comfy daybed or in the hot tub in the evening. The Cowboy tub was fun too! Wish we had caught the outdoor shower was off for the season. A few maintenance issues cropped up in our first couple of days but the team was always really helpful about getting most problems solved, or we were able to make do with some easy workarounds! Nice and quiet spot with just a few neighbors, comfy bed, and charming touches around the house.

Review Date: 2/2/2022

This place is perfect! Amazing property with sunrise views every morning and hot tub sunsets to end every night. Kitchen was great to cook in and the bed was super comfortable. Worth every penny and we hope to be back!

Review Date: 1/21/2022

This place is such a gem. The house is situated in a more private, spacious area surrounded by beautiful desert plants. Very quiet neighborhood with not much traffic so you really get immersed into the serene life in the desert. House is beautifully decorated, clean, and well equipped for a super comfortable stay. Even the beds are so comfy! We ended up just staying home and not going out because this place really has everything you need, especially the hot tub and grill! I highly recommend this place and we’ll be back! Thank you for having us.

Review Date: 1/10/2022

Everything was as pictured! Booked a last minute trip to have some peace and time away from city life. Spent all day in the jacuzzi, cooked, and relaxed. Woke up to beautiful views and stargazed at night. If anyone is looking for time away, book!

Review Date: 11/29/2021

Everything about this house was fantastic! So comfortable and beautifully designed. We loved cooking in the kitchen and enjoyed wine by the hot tub in the evenings. Joshua Tree was a quick 20 minute drive away and the small local town was fun to shop and grab a drink. Most restaurants were closed Tuesday and Wednesday. We also enjoyed the local coffee in the mornings while watching the sunrise. We came out here to get a quick retreat from LA and it was everything we needed. I would definitely recommend staying here if you have a chance!

Review Date: 11/20/2021

We had an absolutely phenomenal stay at this house! The property is great with many different places to hang out (cabin, hot tub, hammock) and there is a very swanky fireplace inside. There is a ton of attention to detail and design at this house that really made the trip stand out. The beds are incredibly comfortable and viewing the Joshua Trees from the hot tub at night was amazing. The house is also close to town but remote enough to feel pretty isolated. I would definitely recommend this property!

Review Date: 11/19/2021

We greatly enjoyed our stay. I normally prefer to rent a property from an individual, not a renting company, but here nothing bad to say. We have a great experience with Homestead and loved/appreciated everything about the property: the house, the layout, the furniture, the spa, the cowboy bath, the calm, etc. I highly recommend Yucca Hut and Homestead.

My wife and I stayed here for our first wedding anniversary! It was a great escape from the busy loud city life! House is super clean and well designed and decorated. The gas fire place was so convenient, the Sonos speaker system was very easy to pair with my iPad. The views are great - a TON of Joshua Trees on the property. Morning coffee in the hot tub followed up by an outdoor shower is life changing! Cannot recommend Homestead Modern enough!

This is a gorgeous and very clean house with an incredible hot tub, comfortable beds and bedding and on and on. Easily a five out of five experience. It’s close to joshua tree, yucca valley and pioneertown. The only minor drawback is that the house, while on a large lot, is not quite as isolated as I had hoped and is in a neighborhood. However, we never heard any of the neighbors and felt complete privacy and comfort the entire time. Incredible house!

Looking for dates that I can go back. This space has it all, and was designed to have different places to enjoy the desert. The hot tub, shaded hammock hut, and endless outdoor spaces, I had the most magical time enjoying the stars. Amazing hosts. Super clean. Designed to perfection. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else.

Beautiful home, very thoughtful design, love the portal window in the living room and open floor plan in the kitchen. Easy check in, great accommodation and would def go back

The Yucca Hut is the perfect place to getaway and bask in the sun and solitude. There are certainly other homes in sight, but we still really enjoyed the desert sunsets and privacy of the setting. The home is well appointed and it's obvious the hosts have paid careful attention to every little detail. We will most definitely be back.

You will not regret your stay here. A few of my favorite things: The epic panoramic views of Joshua Trees with magical sunrises and sunsets to match. The calming and simple interior design. Little pockets of peaceful sitting areas to read a book or have convos. Everything at your fingertips: spacious kitchen with all you need to cook (including my favorite the French press!), clean and pristine bathrooms with outdoor shower, fireplace, so much room for my golden retrievers to relax and cool off on the floor and the backyard was so inviting for socializing and bonding. The cowboy bath was a top favorite! After touring hot Joshua tree, it was so refreshing to dip and cool off in the cowboy bath!! The hot tub was perfect for stargazing at night!! The stars jumped out at you! We went when a heat wave hit SoCal and this bnb was the perfect home to escape to but also enjoy what the desert has to offer!! Highly recommend!! I’m def coming back in the fall!! Miss it already…

Spent the weekend here and it was very relaxing, the beds are so comfortable, we had everything that we needed provided & the place was super clean and felt very private. The response time was super quick which I also appreciate, overall great experience with the host and the environment they provided :)

I love the Yucca Hut. An overdue escape from loud city life in L.A. Spacious, with great light, and a bunch of different areas within the grounds to get away. Convenient to Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneer Town. I will come back as soon as I can.

The Yucca Hut was one of the best desert Airbnbs my partner and I have ever stayed in. The folks at Homestead Modern are so kind and communicative. They've created a beautiful, impeccably decorated, super clean and comfortable home full of thoughtful details. The hot tub, cowboy tub, and outdoor shower were so fun to use. The stars at night are unreal. You really do feel like you're on your own little luxury ranch when you stay here. Can't recommend booking this stay enough!

This home was an absolute dream!!! Everything is so thoughtfully put together and we especially enjoyed the gorgeous views of the desert sunsets, the amazing fireplace, and the fully stocked modern kitchen. The location was perfect within a short drive to town while still feeling secluded. The bed was very comfortable and you will love all the attention to detail within this gorgeous home!

Absolutely one of my best Airbnb experiences. From the initial communication to the very comprehensive printed house manual on the counter, they seem to have thought of everything. The house is as beautiful as pictured and remarkably clean. It immediately felt like home (even better!), and was incredibly comfortable. So many different spaces, both indoor and outdoor, to experience and appreciate. The location was perfect. So convenient to Yucca Valley shops, Pioneertown, and Joshua Tree. Would most definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience the High Desert at its finest.

This was a wonderful getaway for after a year of being cooped up in our own home. The location was perfect - far enough from 62 to see the stars at night, and close enough for all the amenities and easy access to Joshua Tree National Park. I found myself prioritizing sunrise and sunset at the house because the views with all the desert around us were so beautiful. We enjoyed yoga in the cabin, hot tub under the stars, and afternoon reading in the hammocks (our dog enjoyed the shade structure too) while being visited intermittently by quails, rabbits, and even a roadrunner! It was our first time in the high desert, and we'll be sure to return!

Great home! Super well put together, and seemingly built by the owners. I admired the design hugely, and a good outdoor shower’s always cool. They responded super quick too! Highly recommend!

Review Date: 4/12/2021

This place is a gem! We would return in heartbeat if we visit the area again. We’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnb’s and this one is at the top of my favorites list. We enjoyed watching the sunrise from the patio and the hot tub was perfect after a day of hiking. I can’t say enough of good things about this place.

Gorgeous views, amazing location, thoughtful and stylish house. Loved every minute of our stay at this property. Highly recommend the Yucca hut, and homestead modern overall. As for the property- The outdoor space is unbeatable! The layout of everything is artfully done, giving you amazing wide-open views of the gorgeous landscape but also keeping you sheltered/private and out of direct sight from other properties near by. And from inside the house, you still feel completely connected to the landscape. They put a lot of thought into this place and executed everything very well. The amenities are on point: beds and pillows are dreamy, towels are linens are high quality, you have all the basics to cook and feel right at home. They left nothing to want. And Homestead Modern was a wonderful host to work with. They were friendly and quick to respond, easy and welcoming. I will definitely book with them again. In summary, Yucca hut is the perfect open and airy, quiet, private, comfortable, and stylishly decorated getaway to experience the desert. Can’t wait to get back!

What a true delight this place is. Every single detail was stylishly done — with taste and originality. Seriously. Thoughtful and never pretentious, but always creative and beautiful. And then there are the views from every window. And the hot tub!!!! And hammock nook. Go. Enjoy their booklet on where they found all the stylish touches in the house. Cheers.

We had a rejuvenating stay, alternating between the hot tub (which sits beneath a beautiful view day ang night) and sun bathing on the wooden chairs nearby. Most comfortable beds and sheets, and loved the fireplace!

Obsessed with this place! The space is so beautiful and filled with gorgeous desert light throughout the day. The property is incredible. It was so nice to have the hot tub in the evening to watch sunset. The outdoor shower was lovely AND the location is perfect. Cannot wait to go back!

The Yucca Hut was the perfect destination to relax and enjoy plenty of functional outdoor space. For us, it was a temporary escape from Los Angeles, and it was even more relaxing than we planned. The rooms are as clean as they are well designed, and the thoughtful touches (succulents, books) give the entire house a homey feel. What made the experience truly special was spending time reading in the hammock and stargazing in the jacuzzi in the pitch black desert. A short drive to town and to a number of hikes, we felt remote enough to relax but close enough to activities for us to not feel like we were on an island. Overall, this experience was terrific and the hosts were communicative and easy to work with. Will book again!

Easily one of the best AirBNB places we have stayed at. The house is large and full of light. The design is way beyond the typical rental: from the layout, kitchen, and bedrooms and outdoor spaces (and there is plenty of beautiful outdoor spaces) -- this place is full of special touches. It's for the design lover, but really for everyone who appreciates a good home and a good host.

Review Date: 1/19/2021

Wonderful place. The beauty of the landscape is ever present with lots of windows with great views. Lots of natural light inside. Nice jacuzzi. Cool back house bedroom. The lot is large and pretty. The "yard" portion of the grounds is a lovely, cool hang out space. Short drive to town.

As always, staying at a homestead modern property was amazing. Beautiful house and surrounding outdoor area. Responses were super fast, even over the holiday period. Great stay!

Review Date: 12/26/2020

What are a great place to relax and unwind. The Yucca Hut is thoughtfully designed, very clean, a perfect size property for a family to have some elbow room and privacy with views of the surrounding desert. The hot tub and hut were great additions, and the design of the home and property have modern touches while fitting well with the surrounding landscape. The property has the feeling of being away from town while still being close enough for quick trips to the store. We look forward to renting again!

We had an amazing time. The views were beautiful, especially the sunsets. Hosts were so helpful and responsive, and made our stay truly wonderful. House is really modern, and we'll definitely be back.

As soon as we arrived, we were immediately sad that we would eventually have to leave. The space is larger and more beautiful even than pictured. Such a relaxing beautiful stay! Very clean, modern, nice amenities! I’d love to come back, I miss it already!
