Highdesert Homestead, Joshua Tree
Special !
Summer special. Discounted rate of $130 per night with a 2 night minimum between June 15 to August 31
Located in the rugged hills of Joshua Tree’s northern boundary, Highdesert Homestead is surrounded by boulders, cacti and Joshua trees. By day, it’s the perfect location for getting to know the California national park (and its abundant wildlife). By night, it provides a tranquil starlit retreat to take in the spiritual beauty of J-Tree.
Originally built as a homesteader’s cabin in 1957, it was recently renovated to be a minimal, modern getaway that accomodates up to 4 people. The Homestead has two bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, and has been updated using environmentally-friendly methods. All furnishings are handmade by the owner for a homespun feel.

Perfectly appointed house in the desert. Our first night we were greeted by a giant sky filled with stars. We had a great time and ours dogs had a blast running around the property. Great for a weekend getaway!

“Wonderful getaway to a beautiful home!”
My boyfriend and I rented the Highdesert Homestead for a weekend getaway from Los Angeles. We had such a wonderful time at the home – it is incredibly peaceful and serene, and the home itself is beautifully decorated and so enjoyable to stay in! The home was clean and included all the necessary amenities for cooking and relaxing. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the spacious fenced in yard was perfect for our dog to run around. I would highly recommend renting this house – we will definitely be back!

My husband and I decided to get away to somewhere warmer (we are from Seattle) for our 5th anniversary, so we chose Joshua Tree and searched for houses until we saw the Highdesert Homestead. We both still needed to be able to work while we were on vacation but wanted a house that felt like an escape. And when we arrived, we were thrilled. The home itself is a vacation. The home is perfectly designed and they have not missed a single detail. Everything was clean and organized which made it easy to relax. Even our two dogs felt like they were on vacation, they loved to lay on the patio and use the beautiful dog bowls provided. I am a writer and found constant inspiration in the views from every room. We went on hikes and explorations nearby, but cooked nearly every meal in the beautiful kitchen. The Highdesert Homestead was even more perfect than the pictures and descriptions show. It was a great stay and we will certainly be returning.

“Wonderful and relaxing place to stay!”
Lovely house with a serene and relaxed vibe. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We arrived at night and were stunned when we woke up to the fantastic views! We couldn’t help but lounge on the bed with all the pillows in the extra room and read while keeping an eye on the copious quail amongst the cholla and yuccas outside. We loved the design aesthetic that went into this house’s renovation. Clean modernism with lots of beautiful wood! It’s very quiet and feels secluded although there are other houses within site. The location is very convenient to the National Park and town. Crossroads Cafe, The Natural Sisters Cafe and Sam’s provide excellent vegetarian eating. The owners are friendly and organized, making the trip easier on us. The roads to the house are not paved and are quite a bumpy ride, but it’s worth it. We highly recommend a stay and will be back!
