We are an amazing desert experience! Feel that relaxing “Ahhh” moment as soon as you arrive, just a short drive from the 10 freeway to Morongo Valley; the Gateway to Joshua Tree.
It's all about the outdoors~

SPECTACULAR hiking trails right in our neighborhood – for those days that you don’t want to leave the house
Our house has everything, with years of renting, we thought of all the things that were never there that we wanted for our stay. And we included them.

- Great hiking just steps just off the property
- The area is rich with activities, entertainment, and nature!
And don't forget about our NEW - PRIVATE OUTDOOR SHOWER, Soothing Hot Tub - available all year, open 24 hours. Relax those muscles after a day or hiking or sightseeing. Soak in the magical sunsets or watch the moon and the stars rise in the open night sky. And you have a very good chance or catching a shooting star streaking across our night skies, it happens more than you think.
- "Amazing stay and location. Perfect little escape will def be back. Thank you for making our first little Vrbo experience so amazing!!!" - "J&B was an amazing stay. We had be roadtripping for o we 5 days with hit and miss hotel/rental property stays and arriving here was a total haven! The road getting there is a bit rocky but we expected that, no surprise. Their home is hidden and tucked away in a private location. Their home is impeccable and so welcoming which they’ve made sure it is. Starting with great communication and responses so quickly to every last detail in the house from kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms! Let me tell hi the bedding in our bedroom was totally over the top. Mattress was comfortable, pillows, sheets and comforter top of the line. Literally didn’t want to get out of bed after the first night which in all honesty didn’t till late morning which is very not like me. Anyway, don’t hesitate, just book it, you won’t regret it. The hot tub was a huge hit, stargazing at night was the best! We cooked both nights and they had everything you would need. Thanks John and Bob for a great stay and sharing your amazing home with us!"

- "We enjoyed the location, which was close to Joshua Tree and Palm Springs. The area was quiet, and was not too close to neighbors, with a lovely view. This made for a nice respite from the cities. The owner was quick to respond to our questions, and very pleasant." - "Enjoyed our stay, clean, nice views, accurate listing." - "The house was clean and met our needs perfectly. I was easily able to contact the owner with a question, and he quickly resolved my question. We were out during the day with various activities, but back in the evenings. It was very cozy. It is in a nice neighborhood, and is secure. There is some wildlife, which was fun. Within 30 minutes a roadrunner, a quail, and a coyote made an appearance. They all looked healthy, so be cautious with your pets. The view is lovely."

- "This out of the way retreat provided the much needed solitude we were needing. We enjoyed watching the wildlife and the view. The property is located near all the required services and we enjoyed getting to now the area. The road to the property was a bit rough due to the unusual amount of rain." - "The house was perfect at the end of the road. It was very quiet and quaint. Loved that you can walk up the mountain just behind the house and there were walking sticks. The hot tub overlooking the valley was so great. It was so much fun visiting Joshua Tree, and some other fun stops were the Red Dog Saloon in Pioneertown and the Joshua Tree Saloon. If you choose to stay here you will totally enjoy it. House had everything and the bed was very comfortable! Thank you, Ron."

Also the bed was unbelievably comfy lol. Definitely stay here if you can!" - "My girlfriend and I loved staying here. The rooms flow together nicely, and every window has an unbelievable view of different mountains. It almost doesn’t feel real. We took full advantage of the grounds and learned we are, in fact, hammock people. We highly recommend enjoying the sunset via hammock. The hot tub is clean, and the views from it are gorgeous.

The Neighborhood:
Morongo Valley is a small, quiet community featuring one of the best bird watching locations in the Western United States: Big Morongo Canyon Preserve. Morongo Valley is an ideal High Desert locale, set halfway between the restaurants, shops, and nightlife of Palm Springs (30-minute drive) and the wonders of Joshua Tree National Park (35-minute drive to the West Entrance).
This area is located within a short drive of delicious restaurants and fun things to do. Here are a few favorites:
• Dillon's Burgers & Beers (7-minute drive) - Old-school eatery known for hearty food and arcade games.
• Morongo Valley Cafe (8-minute drive) - Neighborhood favorite for breakfast classics like eggs benedict and huevos rancheros.
• Joshua Tree Village (30-minute drive) - Quirky strip of boutiques and restaurants, including Coyote Corner, Space Cowboy Books, and the rustic Joshua Tree Saloon.
• Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Art Museum (35-minute drive) - As far from a stuffy gallery as you can imagine, this outdoor sculpture garden contains a unique collection of folk-art.
• The Integratron (35-minute drive) - New age-y healing destination with a sound bath, originally designed by ufologist George Van Tassel with the goal of reversing the aging process.
• Mt. San Jacinto State Park (60-minute drive) - Expansive, hilly landscape with foot and horseback trails surrounding 10,834-foot Mount San Jacinto.

• Closest pharmacy: Rite Aid Pharmacy (22-minute drive)

PLEASE NOTE that names of streets on maps and on street signs often differ in Morongo Valley, and some roads can be quite difficult as they are not publicly maintained. Please be sure to follow our turn-by-turn directions.
Other Things to Note:

- "We really enjoyed our stay at Hidden Passage in the Aphrodite cabin. The view was even better than expected and all the windows made the space feel a lot bigger for 2 adults and a pup. It was a quiet and peaceful getaway, close enough to go into town to grab a bite and catch a show at Pappy’s and then come back to relax and enjoy being surrounded by nature. The wood stove was a nice touch and kept us warm on a couple of chilly nights. The bed was comfy and we had everything we needed during our stay. We loved the privacy of the cabin and didn’t get a chance to check out the pool or other common spaces, but we are already planning another visit!"

- "The hosts were great about providing information ahead of time regarding access and even some points of interest. The dirt road off the highway is a bit rough for a vehicle that isn't used to driving dirt roads, so it took us about 10-15 minutes to drive up to the front gate from the highway. We stayed in the Athena cottage, which is basically a studio cabin. Perfect size for my partner and I. The kitchenette was sufficient for us to be able to cook full breakfast and dinner. The air conditioning was a wonderful welcome from the outside heat. We hiked around the property using the provided map and stopped at the pool for a dip. Of course being in the desert, the insects wanted to join us. We had a great time in the peace and quiet of the property and found it located close enough to town that it wasn't too inconvenient if we needed to go pick something up. We will definitely recommend and return."

- "We had such an amazing time at this property! It was clean, had great amenities m and maintained its rustic appeal. The pool was wonderful and the views were serene. You won’t see a night sky anywhere else like you do here. It was so unbelievably quiet and peaceful. We can’t wait to have another kid free period of time to visit again! Unfortunately, that likely won’t be until next year." - "This place is a true paradise in the desert! The house is tastefully done and very beautifully located amongst hills. Natural desert landscape with a great diversity of bird made it exceptionally enjoyable. Loved the morning bird song, starlit skies and mist importantly the silence all around.

Conveniently located between Joshua Tree National Park and Palm Springs, you'll be sure to get the best of both world's at The Owl's Nest.

Whether you are a couple, group of friends, or small family, the Owls Nest offer's a euphoric escape surrounded by nature.
The architecture is thoughtfully designed with its rustic, yet artsy aesthetic. The Owl's Nest is intentionally designed to accentuate nature in its rawest form. The home was built at the perfect angle to capture the most beautiful sunset/sunrise from any room in the home. Each room is designed to offer a nook experience with extra large windows (with the bed situated at the window), so that, while lying in bed, you will be front and center to experience the most striking sunsets/sunrise.
Not to mention, the hot tub is perfectly situated near the colorful owl mural to capture stunning pictures while enjoying the hot tub. At night, the hot tub is dimly lit with string lights to offer the perfect experience for a small group of friends looking to hang out with a few beers and BBQ at the hot tub.
While the kitchen does not have a traditional oven, the kitchen is stocked with all the amenities needed to make an amazing meal. At your finger tips, you will have access to an induction hot plate, microwave, plug-in frying pan, and an over-sized convection oven. Not to mention, the patio has a high quality propane grill (and propane is provided).
- "My wife and I couldn’t be happier with the set up! The owls nest is the perfect place for a cozy get away. The property gives you that secluded privacy feeling, with awesome views in every direction. The hot tub was the perfect place to relax and star gaze." - "We were so blown away from this adorable, peaceful, very clean hidden Gem! We were looking to recharge and disconnect from the busy world and it exceeded our expectations. It was extremely clean, and had everything we could have needed. "

Highly, highly recommend this trek into the desert for anyone wanting to get away." - "This was the perfect setting for a girls getaway with my bff.

Treat yourself to a Desert Retreat. This 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom home invites you to hear, see, and feel everything Southern California's high desert offers. Mountain views, Saguaro Cacti, citrus trees, and so much more can all be taken in from the comfort of a lounge chair in this sprawling 5 acres. Private, yet conveniently near Joshua Tree National Park, Morongo Casino, Pioneer Town, shops, and restaurants, you can escape the noise of everyday life without sacrificing any of its comforts.
The space
Sitting on 5 acres, on a hill overlooking Morongo Valley, with the San Bernardino Mountains serving as a backdrop, a private road will bring you home for your stay. You'll be minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, Palm Springs, Yucca Valley, local hot spots, and stores.
As you settle in, you'll be provided robes, slippers, toiletries, coffee/tea, and high-speed Wi-Fi. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances fit for a chef, and a dining nook that seats four. A queen bed, yoga mats, vanity, and a touch of decor wait for you in the bedroom. You'll find a vinyl record player, acoustic guitar, classic games, a 65" TV, and a fold-out sofa in the living room. A corner workspace has two stations available.
The outdoors offers plenty to do as well. Enjoy a cup of coffee as you watch the sunrise in a swinging egg chair. Stroll through the garden and surrounding wilderness of desert flora. Let the valley wind rock you in a hammock. Gaze at the mountains as your inner kid rides the swings. Huddle around the fire pit while kicking back in Adirondack's. Recline on lounge chairs, soaking in the colorful sunset. And when it gets dark, and the sky is filled with stars, bring the telescope out for a new perspective.
Guest access
Make the turn off of Highway 62 (29 Palms Highway) onto a dirt road and drive for about 1 minute. Usually smooth, rains can make it a bit bumpy. The inside is ideal for 2 guests, however, we can easily accommodate 4. The couch in the living room converts to a queen-sized bed.

If you don't know what to do, feel free to ask one of our co-hosts (animals) as they are always ready to help entertain you. Speaking of which...
★ ANIMALS ANIMALS ANIMALS ★
Please note that we have 12 dogs, 2 mini-horses, 2 mini-cows, 4 goats, 7 pigs, 7 emus, and one giant Sulcata tortoise in addition to a host of other smaller animals like chicken, ducks and guinea pigs. This means that you really must love animals to enjoy your stay here – they’re all friendly and will definitely come to say hello. Many of them you can hug and cuddle, and if you need help making that happen let us know 🙂
Here are some of their names, in case you're wondering. Dogs are Baby Shark, Tilt, Little Bear, Saucy, Lapsang, Souchong, Ocho, Squigs, Junior, Pancake, Loofa, and the Ancient One (aka Crouton). Pigs are Piggie Smalls (aka Big Pig), Skinny Pig, Nice Pig, Scaredy Pig, Clem, Dudu, and the little pink new guy TBD. Emus are Early and Later, Blondie, Spike, Later Jr Mr. Pecks and an unnamed rare white emu. The tortoise is Comrade and the horses are THOT (that horse over there) and A Horse With No Name. The cows are Big Head and Bug Eyes. Goats are Zoomer, Nugget, Maniac, and Girl Goat. There’s more, but we’ll leave it here.
Our beloved livestock guardian dogs, 3 Anatolian Shepherds and 1 Great Pyranees (all rescued) diligently protect the ranch from coyotes and may bark at night. We understand that this may be bothersome to some guests and we provide earplugs as a courtesy to ensure a peaceful night's rest.
- "Loved staying here! Vanessa and her partner have created a magical place to rest, center, and breathe. All of the animals on the property -- and there are plenty -- are well taken care of and incredibly friendly. I had emus, dogs, guinea hens, ponies and more coming up to me to give and get some loves. This all just enhanced the experience! Great location right between JT and Palm Springs too. Totally would recommend!" - "This property is beautiful, Vanessa and her partner have done an incredible job making this place feel comfy and relaxing. Ask Vanessa for a tour of the property because there is much to see! From the plentiful animals such as emus, pigs and Guinea pigs to the outdoor cowboy tub this place is an animal lovers paradise. We stayed in the Art Deco guest house, two cozy rooms and a gorgeous walk in shower was perfect for my partner and I. The kitchen has essentially everything you need to cook your own food other than a microwave. We loved that the house was very open and the living room was right next to the kitchen so we could put on some records while we cooked. (Loved that they had Patsy Cline records) I do recommend bringing extra towels with you if you plan on using the tub and the shower. I also recommend asking Vanessa to get the tub going for you if you want to get in right when you get there as it did take about 3 hours for it to be warm enough to enjoy. They were also kind enough to come down with a golf cart to pack our stuff in so we didn’t have to trek it up the gravel driveway. I can’t wait to come back here again and I also wanted to note how great it was to see how well taken care of not only the property is but all the animals as well, they all look so happy and are very friendly. Thank you again Vanessa we’ll be seeing you!"

We are located in the mojave desert in the hills above the historic community of Morongo Valley. The ranch is situated on a residential street at the top of our quiet neighborhood. Morongo has primarily been home to ranches, homesteads artist residences, and spacious properties. This desert valley community has been known as the gateway to the high desert. Our property rests on the ridge overlooking the valley, on 2 private fenced acres backing up to the hills. Down the hill is a neighborhood of locals, vacation homes, and ranches. Our landscaper of 20 years lives across the street. On the highway are local coffee shops, cafe, gas stations, boutiques, a post office, and the cactus mart (the premier spot for buying cactus and succulents in the high desert area).
Morongo Valley, located in the mojave desert, is a small community of artists, second home owners, and locals. This historic valley was once the primary home of the Maarrênga’yam, "people from Morongo", of the Serrano band of Morongo Indians, and is known for its water, flowing down from the San Gorgonio mountains into the streams that helped great the Big Morongo Canyon preserve and oasis. The natural resource of the canyon as a historical space and ecological habitat was in need of protection in the mid 1900s. The Audobon Society, The Nature Conservancy, and concerned locals worked with the BLM towards the creation of Big Morongo Canyon and Covington Park. The Covington family and others donated land to the conservancy for protection, and they created in the park, an art colony and nature center. The community of Morongo has sought to preserve and celebrate the beauty of the valley. The canyon is now officially a part of the Sand to Snow National Monument!

Founded by the Audobon Society and Nature Conservancy, it has been designated as one of the United States’s Important Bird Areas by the American Bird Conservancy.
- "Fantastic stay at the lovely ranchhouse (we ended up in the house, not the casita.). Location was the perfect home base for exploring Joshua Tree National Park, Morongo Canyon, Salton Sea, Agua Caliente canyons, and San Bernardino National Forest. The property is set within the natural desert landscape, up against the mountains, perfect for birdwatching. Local geology is spectacular. Amazing night skies. Comfortable, clean home, with well equipped kitchen, bedrooms and baths. Host was great. Would definitely stay here again if in the Palm Springs area."

The ultimate writer's & thinker's retreat. Impeccable attention to detail, great collection of books, steps away from the stunning shared swimming pool, hot tub, and outdoor kitchen at The Sea of Tranquility. Enjoy perfect quiet & solitude, or meet the host, who lives in the main house a few hundred yards away.
The Library is very private and separate from the rest of the compound. So you can either retreat or engage with others by the pool. There are lots of hikes in the hills behind the property, with miles and miles of government land as beautiful as anything in the park. Full kitchen, luxurious bathroom, with double shower and enormous separate bathtub.
Our evolving desert compound is located a mile & 1/2 up a dirt road, on 6 acres, adjoining 100s of acres of gov.t land. Nobody under 18 is allowed on the property. The pool and jacuzzi is 80 feet long. Ideal for soaking, sunbathing, and swimming laps. Pool area is clothing optional. Most go naked in the hot tub (which will be hot at sunset and into evening, year round.)
We try to cultivate an atmosphere of freedom, relaxation, creative community, and communion with nature. We get many return visitors and we have to remind ourselves some of our dearest friends were once guests. That said, we also enjoy and respect people’s right to a private experience. Please do the same.
There is a fire pit, but please only use if there is absolutely no wind and it’s not too hot and dry out. Bring your own wood.
- "We were looking forward to staying here! Lived up the the hype. This place is magical and it was our second vacation rental in two days and we chose it because the first half of our trip would be very busy and hoped we could unwind a bit there. We arrived a little later than we had hoped so it was a little hard to find the cabin because we couldn’t see. Recommend arriving before it’s gets dark and carefully reading the Tao’s directions. Our little Tesla did make it up the winding road, thankfully. The entire cabin is dreamy. We had hoped to stop by and pick up dinner but we didn’t plan out that out as well, luckily we had packed snacks so we could do a charcuterie and we were happy to find that there were plates and some nice glasses. We enjoyed the night sky and did a little star gazing and took some pictures. The tub is wonderful and I took full advantage of it. Wish we would have stayed longer to check out the books more so. The bed is comfortable and the ac works great! We did see other people who were staying but it wasn't weird at all. Would 10/10 recommend! No curtains on windows and sliding glass door doesn’t lock but wasn’t an issue for us, might be for some. Hope to be able to return. You can tell a lot of thought and love was put into making the cabin as charming as it is."

This means that you really must love animals to enjoy your stay here – they’re all friendly and will definitely come to say hello. Many of them you can hug and cuddle, and if you need help making that happen let us know.
Here are some of their names, in case you're wondering. Dogs are Baby Shark, Tilt, Little Bear, Saucy, Lapsang, Souchong, Ocho, Squigs, Junior, Pancake, Loofa, and the Ancient One (aka Crouton). Pigs are Piggie Smalls (aka Big Pig), Skinny Pig, Nice Pig, Scaredy Pig, Clem, Dudu, and the little pink new guy TBD. Emus are Early and Later, Blondie, Spike, Later Jr Mr. Pecks and an unnamed rare white emu. The tortoise is Comrade and the horses are THOT (that horse over there) and A Horse With No Name. The cows are Big Head and Bug Eyes. Goats are Zoomer, Nugget, Maniac, and Girl Goat. There’s more, but we’ll leave it here.
Our beloved livestock guardian dogs, 3 Anatolian Shepherds and 1 Great Pyranees (all rescued) diligently protect the ranch from coyotes and may bark at night. We understand that this may be bothersome to some guests and we provide earplugs as a courtesy to ensure a peaceful night's rest.

★MORE ABOUT THE ACCOMMODATIONS★
ART DECO GUESTHOUSE
Sitting in the main courtyard of the sanctuary, this 2BR hacienda is filled with art deco + vintage finds from the High Desert region including a 70’s-era bed with built-in a 8-track stereo (that works).
ANTIQUE BARN
Not too long ago, this 1940's era barn was just that – dusty, rusted, with a barn door painted pink. We've spent six months painstakingly renovating it into a gorgeous antique studio with antique objects from around the region – and those inherited from our grandparents. Sleeps 2 (1 queen).
IRIDESCENT STAR TOWER
The Star Tower is a two-story microdose of a tiny home full of the mystical and the reflective. On the first floor is an outdoor kitchen (with all the fixings) covered by a fractal, iridescent, kaleidoscope overhang – one of the boldest art pieces on the property. Inside is a twin bunk bed and a bathroom.
FLOATING CONTAINER
This tiny home container floats above the desert on a sea of mirrors. Drawing from both Scandinavian design and Japanese minimalism, it is impeccably decorated, with crisp, clean lines and simple but elegant furnishings. It may be tiny, but it has everything you’d want in a getaway: a comfortable queen, a well-stocked kitchenette, and a gorgeous porch from which you can view San Jacinto mountain in its unobscured, shockingly beautiful glory. Sleeps 2 (one queen).
