About this property
Casita Mariposa in Joshua Tree, Peace and Nature in the Desert
Our casita is located on 2.5 acres in a tranquil desert location, Joshua Tree, CA. Located about 10 minutes from the national park, restaurants and shopping. Surrounded by mountains, the setting is tranquil and beautiful. It is perfect for stargazing, watching sunsets and relaxing on the patio. The property includes extensive gardens and attracts butterflies and birds. Casita is a separate private guesthouse efficiency style with its own kitchen (with coffee provided) and firepit area. A recently added outdoor fireplace and hot tub are perfect for nightime gathering. Use of the hot tub is for casita guests only, it is not communal or shared. Plenty of parking and areas to explore. The queen bed is separated from the living and kitchen areas by a partial wall. The couch in the living area is a double size sleeper sofa. There are two large patios for viewing both sunrise and sunset. Hawks, rabbits, & hummingbirds can be seen on most days. This is a beautiful place. We think you will agree.

About the host
Hosted by DENISE & MICHAEL REILY
We first traveled to Joshua Tree with our kids in 2002. We didn't come back until 2016 and couldn't believe that the love we had for this place; the Mohave desert, the national park, Palm Springs still held true. So we decided to invest in a vacation home. We hope every visitor to our Casita Mariposa experiences the magic of this place. There's nowhere like it!
Why they chose this property
The Sante Fe style adobe buildings and surrounding gardens make this property comfortable and tranquil. The 360 degree views of mountains make for spectacular sunrises and sunsets.
What makes this property unique
Lots of hummingbirds, hawks, butterflies and other wildlife are attracted to our gardens. Our property offers plenty of sunshine when its cool and plenty of shade when its warm.
