About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Sunset Road House (Hot Tub! Hammocks! Fireplace!)

The Sunset Road House is a two bed, two bath newly renovated 1952 homesteader cabin just 15 minutes from the west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park in Joshua Tree, CA.

We have designed this home so that our guests can unplug and relax while enjoying all the modern amenities. Enjoy the spectacular sunrises and sunsets from the expansive deck and relax in the hot tub at night surrounded by open desert views, wildlife, and a starry, starry sky.

We recently did a total renovation (down to the studs!) on this mid-century gem so it has every modern amenity for you to enjoy. It sits on 5 gorgeous acres which you can explore during your visit. You must drive a couple of unpaved roads to access the house but no visitor has had a issue so far, Prius included! Local residents include rabbits, roadrunners, turtles, coyotes and all manner of desert creatures. Our favorite thing about the property is that it truly feels like you are in the middle of nowhere. Check in and tune out :)

The large, open concept living space has a modern kitchen, dining space and living room area. There are two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The master has a king bed (with en suite bathroom) and the second bedroom has two twin beds which can be converted into a king, at your request. The second bedroom also has a full bathroom. The home works well for a group of friends, two couples, or small families. If you need accommodation for more guests we also have a recently renovated vintage travel trailer available for rent near by. Feel free to inquire about our other properties! We welcome pets with a $50 pet fee per pet.

The Sunset Road House is about a 12 minute drive to downtown Joshua Tree (fun shops, restaurants & bars) and a 15 minute drive to the Joshua Tree National Park Visitors Center at the west entrance of the park. In addition to hiking, we are close to the renowned Integratron (a healing sound bath experience) or enjoy a tour of the Gubler Orchid Farm. If you are looking for a little action, head on over to Pioneertown (25 min drive) and visit the Old West movie set before dinner and drinks at the famous music venue, Pappy & Harriet's. You might even get lucky and see The Rolling Stones do a set!

At The Sunset Road House there is a fabulous swimming pool (seasonal) and both a bocce ball court and a horseshoe pit... or do absolutely nothing and lie on the chaise lounges, looking out at the expansive desert by day and/or soaking in the hot tub at night under a blanket of stars. Take in the desert air in the private outdoor shower whenever it strikes your fancy!

Fantastic stay
Nestled in a secluded corner of the Joshua Tree desert, this enchanting home embraced us with warmth and tranquility from the moment we arrived. The property boasts a stunning cactus garden that perfectly complements the serene desert landscape. During the day, we cooled off in the refreshing pool, and as the sun set, the hot tub provided a cozy retreat under the starry sky. The interior of the house is bright, spacious, and thoughtfully decorated with unique, stylish touches. Every detail has been considered, and the home is equipped with everything you could possibly need for a perfect getaway. Despite the remote location, a large grocery store is conveniently just 20 minutes away. Our stay here was nothing short of magical—both rejuvenating for the body and soothing for the soul. The stargazing experience was truly extraordinary, and we were able to capture breathtaking photos of the Milky Way. We can’t recommend this oasis enough and can’t wait to return.

Great Escape in the Desert
It was wonderful to escape the rush of daily life in this peaceful, quiet, and lovely VRBO. All you could see were the mountains in the distance and all you could hear were the sound of birds. Our batteries were recharged. Kathryn and Jon were lovely hosts and answered all our questions quickly. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Joshua Tree next.

Joshua Tree Getaway
We really enjoyed the serenity of our stay as we lounged in chairs watching the sunset and soaked in the hot tub under the stars. The house was clean and comfortable and was a wonderful place to unwind after long days of hiking in JTNP and sight seeing the unique art exhibits within minutes of this lovely home. We were able to take a short day trip out to Ladder Canyon, the Salton Sea Rec Area, Bombay Beach, and Salvation Mountain. We'd love to return here again in the future and continue exploring all that this beautiful desert area has to offer!

So relaxing!
My husband and I wanted to find a nice quiet place to unwind for a night, kid free. I messaged the owner with a question and she promptly replied. By the end of the day, I knew I wanted to book here! The place was in the middle of no where which we loved, so much privacy! Easy to find and check in was so quick and easy. The place was clean, cooled and ready for us. We especially loved the Hot tub at sunset. We also were left a complimentary s’mores kit which was so thoughtful. Everything was as described and we really enjoyed our night there. We would definitely book again!

A desert gem perfect for our anniversary!
The Sunset Road House was the perfect place for our anniversary get away. It was exceptionally clean with a very comfortable bed, all the basics for cooking (not to mention a French press!) and the AC worked fabulously in the 110+ degree heat we had while there. We also loved the little record player and vinyl collection. Best of all, it was amazingly quiet and we had a number of visitors - a jackrabbit greeted us, a roadrunner stopped for shade on the back patio, and a pack of coyotes strolled through on our last evening. It was a short drive to Joshua Tree and the National Park so it made for a great place to get away from everything but still be convenient. Kathryn was absolutely fantastic to work with, immediately responding to messages, and has the perfect balance of professionalism and friendliness. And if you happen to run into Rick, he's more than happy to provide info on local places to check out. Thank you so much for this gem in the desert and the wonderful hospitality!

Excellent House and Owner
This house is outstanding... clean, comfortable, well-appointed and QUIET. It is in the desert with very little around (which is what we wanted), yet only about a 15 minute drive into Joshua Tree town. Kathryn the owner was GREAT to work with. She is extremely accommodating and responsive. Every inquiry was attended to immediately. I wish she owned every VRBO we stay in. If you are looking for a pleasant, relaxing getaway, this is it!

A Desert Dream
This house was amazing… it had a gorgeous yet subtle Bohemian vibe, was well-stocked with all of the necessities (and lots of extras) and was sparkling clean. Everything about it captured the essence of the landscape and gave my family and me that Joshua Tree experience I was looking for. The fireplace, hot tub, swimming pool (loved the cold plunge!), the hammocks, outside dining space and fire pit made it a true desert oasis. The hosts responded quickly and graciously to all of my questions, and the whole booking experience was easy and seamless. I’ve already recommended it to my friends who are planning a trip there, and I plan to go back again as well. It truly is a gem!

Cozy stay
We traveled with our two teenagers in early March 2023. Kathryn was always available and responded right away when we had a little trouble unlocking the door when we arrived. It was cold and snowing during our stay but we stayed in and it was comfy and cozy - we had the fire going and played games. It's very quiet and the space was perfect for us for a few days. Thanks for being such great hosts!

A perfect remote getaway, minutes from town and the park.
We stayed in December 2022 and enjoyed our stay immensely. The property offered wonderful quiet and solitude, while still being a short (10-15) minute drive to the town of Joshua Tree and the park entrance. There were many amenities we didn't use given our visit was in winter (such as the pool and outdoor games) but we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the cozy indoor space. The house was clean and well-appointed. Also, we wanted to turn off a light on the heater and the hosts were lightning-fast in their response to our question and promptly addressed the need. We'll surely be back when we get out that way again!

Just what we were looking for.
We only had time for a short getaway from suburban Orange County to the desert and this house fit the bill. It is remote enough that it is wonderfully quiet with neighbors a good distance away, nothing but desert scrub and mountains surrounding. Brilliant stars at night and clear light during the day. Space inside is compact but has all we needed. Great furniture and well equipped kitchen for heating up our Thanksgiving bird. Wish we had more time to hang out and enjoy the relaxed vibe and pool and hot tub. Next time!

Perfectly Relaxing Stay.
The property was well appointed for a perfect secluded getaway. There was a fireplace, a hot tub, a firepit and a above ground pool. Unfortunately, our visit was too cold and windy to use pool and the fireplace. The property also has horseshoes and bocce ball court to play in the afternoon and plenty chairs facing east and west to check out the beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Plus there were hammocks to stargaze at night. The kitchen had all the cookware needed to prepare meals and minimize the drives into town. There was even a bottle of Prosseco chilling in the fridge and stores kit. It made for relaxing getaway for my girlfriend and I.

Quiet, relaxing getaway
This is possibly the best VRBO we’ve experienced. My wife and I stayed here for two nights while exploring Joshua Tree NP. That was not enough time. This house was the perfect respite after hiking and exploring. The house is spacious and comfortable, and the property itself is secluded and quiet. The “cowboy pool” and hot tub were great, as well as the complimentary beverages thoughtfully provided by the hosts. We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend this property and the hosts.
