Wonderful tranquility

A super chill space indoors and out. Nice proximity to Yucca Valley but also remote enough to feel a bit remote. Road out is scenic and easy.

Great house in Pioneertown

We stayed for only a couple of days for a wedding at the nearby Rimrock Ranch. We were so happy that it was just across the street within walking distance. The house was clean and kitchen amenities were great. Very easy check in and out for our brief stay. Would recommend!

Lux hiking cabin

We stayed here to hike Joshua Tree National Park and found great hiking even closer at Pioneertown. This is a beautiful home with wonderful host. Frontier Cafe, the Copper Room, Pappy’s and Harriet’s, Mas O Menos, and Kitchen in the Desert were dining recommendations from Host Renee that we loved. If a serene cottage as a comfortable home base for hiking is your goal, you’ve found it.

Swanky, we'll be back.

Great spot, just as advertised. Immaculately clean, very well equipped. Very quiet, lots of good walks and hiking nearby. So peaceful compared to being in Joshua Tree proper, and close enough do it all.
