Here Are a Few Kind Words From Our Recent Guests:

-”This amazing house, which sits on five (5!) acres, fully enfolds you in the warm arms of the desert. The house looks like a mid-century you would find in Palm Springs and is completely contemporary inside-the rooms were elegantly furnished and the amenities were beyond what I expected.” -Mary

-”We loved this property! Beautiful view, easy access to the park entrance, and extremely clean, comfortable, well designed, and stocked with basics.” -Laura

-”I've stayed in Airbnbs all over the world and this one is by far one of my favorites. From the beautiful Floor Plan and decor to the luxurious sheets this place is literally an oasis!” -Jayne

*Saltwater pools are gentler on the eyes, hair, and clothing. The chlorine in saltwater pools is created naturally rather in a man-made fashion, you won’t have the same harsh chlorine smell. Salt-chlorinated pool water is silkier and leaves your skin feeling less dried out than traditionally chlorinated pool water does.

-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 all the action at Highlands Retreat. 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 thus 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.

Guest Access:

The Neighborhood:
Joshua Tree Highlands is considered one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the area given its close proximity to the national park as well as its forever northerly vistas of the Mojave Desert. Though you’ll feel like you’re far from civilization, this area sits just a few minutes’ drive from shops and restaurants in Joshua Tree Village and Yucca Valley. Joshua Tree BLM stretches (South) behind the house providing an escapers dream with the natural desert landscape, native flora and active wildlife. The Highlands community have beautiful vistas, quiet days and dark star-filled nights. In short, a contemplative alternative to the noise, bustle, and visual clutter of urban life.

Getting Around:
This is a remote location down dirt roads, so please take it slow. While a car is required to get around, a four wheel drive car is not, but note that roads will often have ruts, particularly after a rain.
