About this property
Scenic Desert Oasis w/ Private Hot Tub + Mountain Views + Fire Pit + BBQ
Welcome to Desert Elysium! Your serene desert retreat designed for effortless relaxation and soulful connection. Just minutes from downtown Joshua Tree and less than 20 minutes from the park’s main entrance, Desert Elysium is where modern design meets the timeless beauty of the desert.
Thoughtfully curated with calming textures and natural tones, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath oasis invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and immerse yourself in the rhythms of the high desert.
★About the Property ★
Designed for discerning travelers, Desert Elysium features an open-concept great room that seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living spaces; perfect for gathering, relaxing, or entertaining. A comfortable sleeper sofa provides flexible accommodations, while the fully equipped kitchen makes both casual meals and elevated dinners effortless.
The great room opens onto a private patio with a shaded pergola, a spa-style hot tub, and expansive mountain views; ideal for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or peaceful evenings under the stars.
The master bedroom offers a plush bed and an en-suite bath with a walk-in rain shower. The second bedroom serves as an equally serene retreat with access to a second full bathroom. For a signature desert moment, enjoy an invigorating rinse in the private outdoor shower.
Set on nearly half an acre with a fully fenced in back yard, Desert Elysium offers rare privacy and tranquility, while keeping you close to everything.
★ Guest Access ★
Your stay offers complete privacy on nearly half an acre of desert landscape. Enjoy exclusive access to the home and outdoor areas, where you can unwind and take in breathtaking mountain views. At night, the clear desert sky offers an unforgettable stargazing experience. Whether you're relaxing on the patio or exploring the surrounding tranquility, the beauty of Joshua Tree is yours to enjoy.
Please note there are two exterior utility closets that are not accessible to guests.
★Other Details to Note★
Complimentary Electric Vehicle Charging:
For your convenience, the property is equipped with a Level 2, 240V EV compatible with a standard J1772 connector. Tesla's will require their J1771 charging adapter.
Desert Wildlife & Safety Guidelines:
The desert is full of wildlife and natural beauty. While encounters with animals like coyotes, snakes, scorpions, and mountain lions are rare, always stay alert and keep a safe distance if you spot any. The desert also has sharp cacti and prickly plants, so be cautious. For your safety, supervise children, service animals, and emotional support animals (ESAs) while outdoors, and keep them on a leash to avoid dangerous situations. By booking this property, you acknowledge the possibility of wildlife encounters and take responsibility for your safety and that of your group.
★ Neighborhood Highlights ★
Just a short drive from the national park entrance, local cafés, and vintage shops, our neighborhood gives you easy access to everything Joshua Tree has to offer while still feeling like your own private desert escape. You’ll find peaceful desert surroundings, wide-open skies, and a true sense of calm.
