– 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 everything at Yucca Hut. 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 this 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.

Me and my girlfriend wanted to take a trip top unwind and get away from the city with our pup, and this place was amazing! We wanted a place to disconnect from technology and there was always something to do! Highly recommend for your next stay! We felt right at home and enjoyed the peace and quiet

Thank you so much for the kind words! We're so happy you, your girlfriend, and your pup found the perfect escape here. You're welcome back anytime!

What can I say—I wish this was my home! It was so spotlessly clean, the linens were amazing, the decorations artistic and minimal and my personal favorite: no artificial smells on the linens or in the toiletries. The kitchen supplies were also top notch. We couldn’t get enough of the hot tub and cold plunge and we loved relaxing in the hammock. It was the perfect place to stay on our trip to Joshua Tree!
- Review Date: 4/14/2025

Honestly, the best Airbnb we have stayed at! Everything was just right, inside and out. Super clean and super simple, nothing more than we needed and everything in it's right place. It was perfectly balanced. Great location close to Joshua tree and just far enough away from Palm springs to make it feel remote. We could tell a lot of thought went into the selecting everything that was there, from individual pieces of furniture, the bedding and pillows, the books for us to read, the outside spaces, all the way through to the Sonos speakers that were there for us to use. Hot tub was perfect for relaxing in the evenings whilst soaking up the desert views and stars (and in the morning to watch the sun rise.) Can not recommend this place, and the hosts enough!
- Review Date: 4/7/2025

Wow, thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re truly honored to hear this was your best Airbnb stay yet. It means the world that you noticed and appreciated all the little details. We put a lot of care into curating the space to feel just right, and it’s so rewarding to hear it resonated with you. We're thrilled you enjoyed everything from the Sonos system to the sunrise hot tub soaks. We'd absolutely love to welcome you back anytime you're ready for another desert escape!

This home was absolutely stunning. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery. We felt so relaxed and at home sharing wonderful family memories. The Kitchen was absolutely amazing.

We stayed at the Yucca Hut for my wife’s birthday and had a lovely visit. The house was a real respite and had plenty of space for the two of us and our two children. The studio outside by the hot tub was a great additional area to get some room from each other and read a book (our eight year old loved this). While would have taken advantage of more outdoor spaces (patio, hammock area, cold plunge) in warmer weather, there was still plenty of room for all of us inside and the proximity to JT park was very convenient. The rural location was very dark at night but we had no issue finding it with GPS / cell service, plus reliable wi-fi in the house. I would totally stay here again! It would be an awesome space to share with another couple and still feel like we all have enough privacy and room to unwind. I don’t know that I would want to bring kids much younger than our 6 year old, just because of the nicer furnishings / art objects found around the house. Thanks!

We're so glad you had a lovely time celebrating your wife’s birthday and that the space worked well for your family. It’s great to hear your eight year old enjoyed the studio by the hot tub! We'd love to host you again!

At least my fifth time staying at this lovely home. We love it here. Beds are so comfortable and kitchen was a dream to cook in. It is rare to find a kitchen so well appointed in an AirBnB. The beds are super comfortable and the main room a dream to spend time in.
- Review Date: 2/3/2025

This is a very cool-looking midcentury home, super private, very clean, and a peaceful home for a getaway from the city and to be able to decompress. The bedroom sheets were super clean, comfortable beds, a nice kitchen for preparing meals, and a really nice jacuzzi that made a total difference in my stay. Overall, I love the house!
- Review Date: 2/2/2025

This is a beautiful, peaceful and comfortable property. The home is well designed and well appointed. Everything is intentional and nicely done, as well as super clean. The jacuzzi is very nice.

Beautiful home that was straight out of Architectural Digest. The beauty of the inside, matched with the spectacular landscape of the outside, made for a truly amazing experience. It was heartbreaking to leave, but we’ll definitely be back soon…

Our stay at the Yucca Hut was perfect. It was exactly what we were looking for in a quiet, private week away near Joshua Tree. The property was gorgeous (inside and out), and it was very easy to feel “at home” in it. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, and the bathroom setup and amenities were great. We ordered Christmas dinner through Goldbelly, and the team at Homestead Modern was great about ensuring that we could have it delivered to their office and then conveniently pick it up after hours when we arrived in Yucca Valley. It worked out perfectly! We would highly recommend renting a Homestead Modern property. Next time we return to the area, we will definitely be renting one of their properties again!

Listen, if you’re a person who creates a wishlist before making a decision on an Airbnb selection and this one is on your list. BOOK IT. Don’t procrastinate any further, don’t keep revising the list. Book this one. The pictures are gorgeous but the grandeur of this places is hard to capture. It’s the best Airbnb in the desert. Do yourself a favor and stay here - soak in the hot tub, give names to all of the plants at night that are beautifully lit and sunbathe in front of the gigantic sliding doors in the impeccably designed living room. We’ll be back.

We had a great stay at the Yucca Hut. I have stayed at many Airbnbs in the high desert and this by far was the best. The location is perfect and the property is beautiful. The design of the home is stunning and thoughtful. It’s clear that the experience of the guest was considered in the details of the space, from the handmade custom wood furnishings, to the curated artwork, while also being comfortable and inviting. We hope to return and will recommend to friends.

A fantastic stay. A beatiful, clean, and modern house on a large piece of property with all the amenities you want in the high desert. A hot tub and cold plunge, a hammock structure, etc. Very short drive to Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneertown. We were recommended this listing by a close friend and it exceeded our expectations. Will definitely return to stay soon!

Worth every penny, honestly seems too good to be true. Beautiful home, would recommend over any Joshua tree bnb.

I had a fantastic stay at Yucca Hut. The home was just like the pictures, beautifully designed and decorated. I loved the way it felt homey and warm without being cluttered. My favorite parts were the views from all the windows in the main living area and kitchen along with the hot tub in the morning and night. The AC also kept us cool during the heat without issue. For those staying with dogs, the property is not fenced so you’ll still have to keep them on leash. Even on leash, my dogs got cacti stuck in their paws multiple times - they’re all over the yard. I do love how the property is dog friendly inside and not strict like some other properties who don’t allow dogs on their furniture. This property provides a sheet you can lay down for them which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this property. It was as beautiful and magical as the pictures show.
- Review Date: 10/2/2024

We're thrilled you enjoyed the design, the views, and of course, the hot tub magic. As for the cacti—well, welcome to the desert! :cactus: It's part of the charm, right? While we can't fence out nature (those prickly guys were here first), we do recommend keeping the pups on a leash and maybe giving their paws a quick once-over after each adventure. We're glad you appreciated the dog-friendly touches inside though! Come back anytime for more beautiful views—and maybe some dog booties next time.

I wish I had never left. The longer I was there, the more the space impacted me. I e never felt so creative and so aligned. The bonus was the outdoor shower (I never even needed to use the indoor bathroom), the sliding doors, the shaded patio, the hammock, sunken jacuzzi, indoor fire place, and kitchen island. I could go on and on, I thought I’d use to the cabin (which is perfect) but would up spending most of my time in the main home. Staying was such a wonderful gift to myself

I sincerely enjoyed my visit at the Yucca Hut. We ended up extending our visit because we didn't want to leave! The cowboy tub was amazing, the hot tub was great, and the view was phenomenal. I really want to stay at the Yucca Hut again, but know I need to try Homestead Modern's other properties. Was perfect for a week of remote working.

I had a very good time at Yucca Hut! Nice private area and cute house. The bedrooms were so spacious and comfortable, especially the softest pillows I've ever used. The kitchen mostly had everything I needed. The best thing to make me want to comeback next time was that I could see the sunset and stargaze outdoor. The host was responsive and helped me with any questions we had. I definitely will come back!!!

Beautiful place! Great views both at night and during the day. My favorite part was the separate back room with the work space.
- Review Date: 7/28/2024

One of the best airbnbs I've ever stayed in. The decor is immaculate. The amount of windows gives you amazing views of the sunrise/sunset if you aren't outside watching them. Kitchen was well stocked. The beds are comfortable. You couldn't ask for a more beautiful place to stay.

Great house and amenities. Beautiful sunrises every morning.
- Review Date: 2/17/2024

We will absolutely stay here again. The linens and towels were clean and of good quality, the bed and pillows as well. So comfy. The place itself is incredibly beautiful, sleek and modern yet warm and extremely well appointed. From laundry detergent to olive oil, great quality spices, coffee and sparkling water. Also, there’s not a long list of tasks you’re meant to complete before you leave in addition to paying a cleaning charge. I think they just ask you to run the dishwasher and leave your towels on the floor. Now let’s talk about the view. With wraparound sliding glass doors, waking up in the morning and walking into the kitchen was like walking into a painting, and the sunsets over the desert… We were in town for work so didn’t even fully get to use all the amenities. This is a great space for a romantic getaway, and is big enough for a family retreat. …there is even a whole other free standing bedroom in its own little outbuilding. Amazing place. LOVED it.

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time at Homestead Modern. The property feels secluded and cozy, and is a short 10-15 min drive to the Joshua Tree entrance. The home is super clean and we loved the owners artwork, ceramics, and overall vibe of the interior! We were here during a January rainstorm and didn't have any difficultly with the property's unpaved road in a small sedan. We would definitely stay here again when we visit during the warmer months!

This was our fourth stay at Yucca Hut in the last year. Always a treat to stay here and sleep on the wonderful master bedroom mattress. Hands down the best bed I’ve ever slept in at a rental home or hotel. Wonderful kitchen too.
- Review Date: 12/12/2023

This home is amazing. The architectural design is beautiful, from the high ceilings, the concrete finishes, the exposed wood, to the amazing views through the expansive sliding glass doors. There was endless natural light. One of my favorite features was actually the round window near the entrance. The interior design was a combinations of modern minimal with Joshua Tree-esque touches. I noticed that the center piece tall cactus was the only cactus in the open concept kitchen/living/dining room which was a perfect touch that didn’t take away from the Joshua trees and cactuses in their natural desert environment that this property sits on. Overall the host was very responsive and polite. I mentioned that my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary so they went out of their way to drop off a complementary bottle of wine. Now that’s a host! Worth the stay. Don’t hesitate to book!

What a beautiful place to escape to. Thoughtfully planned indoor and outdoor spaces give this home lots of welcome topographical variety — we spent lots of time at the house and never got bored or felt like we were missing out on what the surroundings have to offer. It was all right there on the grounds. Furnishings are comfortable and expertly contrasted to a creative effect — vintage and modern, antique with sleek. It’s an inspired space that inspires. This was my second stay at a Homestead Modern property and I’ll look for their listings first again in the future.

Paradise! Certainly will be back again - hopefully for a longer stay. This is a house carefully considered for true relaxation. Thanks for the recharge.
- Review Date: 8/28/2023

WOW… is all I have to say! I had such an incredible stay in this beautiful space. My friend and I decided to take a last minute trip to the desert to recharge for the weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The space is even more beautiful in person — the pictures don’t do it justice. We spent the majority of our time relaxing in the hammocks, cowboy tub (so cool!!), and hot tub. I’ve been to Joshua Tree many times and I think this might be the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at. Will definitely be back and looking forward to booking with Homestead Modern again!

i really can’t say enough about this place. it’s even more beautiful (and bigger) in person. the property is amazing and the house is situated to take advantage of the amazing desert views. the cottage was great for my writing partner who spent her days working there. super clear communication from hosts from start to finish. homestead modern management team is great and i look forward to booking another of their properties when i return to the desert. amazing experience!

The Yucca Hut is the perfect oasis in the hi-desert. The home is perfectly designed to offer comfort and peace. The beautiful space and thoughtful amenities allow for such a restful time. We loved soaking in the cowboy tub as the sun set and drinking coffee on the patio as the sun came up. Would highly recommend the Yucca Hut to friends and will visit again soon!

This place was amazing, we really enjoyed our time here! It was easy to find and the check in/out process went smooth. The amenities were great - really enjoyed the cowboy tub, the hot tub, and the covered hammock area. The place was very bright and airy, while having multiple exits to the backyard to make the transition from inside to outside very seamless. This place is very aesthetic, perfectly integrated with the landscape, and peaceful.

- Review Date: 6/24/2023

Absolutely delightful stay! It truly elevates the concept of a private retreat. The owner's unique style graces every corner, blending artistic design with functionality. Each space, from the living room to the outdoors, ignites creativity and connection. Our whole experience felt private and intimate. We were free to be alone with ourselves and the stars. The house is well distanced from neighboring properties. Elegant privacy fences make you seem even further. Homestead Modern was responsive and proactive. We will definitely stay here again.

We had the loveliest stay at The Yucca Hut! The place is so beautiful and more spacious than the picture. The house is still private without being too far from the main street.

- Review Date: 4/17/2023

Our stay at Yucca Hut was relaxing and inspiring! The house itself is comfortable and decorated thoughtfully and beautifully, and has everything you need - it felt like home but better. Little touches everywhere make it feel warm and cozy, like the sonos, fireplace, cozy daybed, and lovely ceramics and prints. We loved using the hot tub on chilly mornings with our coffee. There are so many great spots to enjoy the outdoors, all with very cool chairs. The location is great - close to downtown Yucca Valley AND Joshua Tree and just a hop skip to Pappys. We can’t wait to stay here again!

We stayed in the hot tub for 3 hours watching the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen. If I could give this place 6 stars I would.
- Review Date: 3/30/2023

We recently stayed at the Yucca Hut, and overall it was a positive experience. The location was convenient, providing quick access to Joshua Tree National Park, and the modern design of the space was a great touch. The stocked kitchen made meal preparation a breeze. The expansive outdoor space offered a breathtaking view of the desert landscape. The cozy atmosphere created by the fireplace was a pleasant addition after a long day of hiking. However, there were issues that detracted from our overall enjoyment. We found pet and human hair from a previous occupant. Despite reporting the issue to Homestead Modern's support team, our complaint went unanswered, and we felt that our concerns were not taken seriously. While some inquiries received prompt responses, the customer support team was less than friendly at times. Overall, we would recommend the Yucca Hut to others, but suggest that Homestead Modern improves its customer service to ensure guests feel heard and valued.
- Review Date: 3/13/2023

We are happy you enjoyed the house, it is one of our favorites! We are so sorry you felt we were unresponsive, looking at our messaging with you we responded to each inquiry within 20 minutes and even offered to come out and assist which we didn't get a response on. The only item you mentioned being unhappy with was the dog hair on the rug. We feel horrible about that and we strive to be more careful about that for all future guests.

Our stay was fantastic. The location is a short 15 min or so drive to the closest park entrance and less than 10 to the downtown area. The property felt secluded and private but not super isolated. The pictures are accurate and the check-in/check-out was seamless. Very much enjoyed the hot tub in the mornings and evenings, the Sonos surround sound in the house, the indoor fireplace, and the BBQ on the porch. Beautiful place, would highly recommend.

Stayed 3 nights at the Homestead Modern and has the most relaxing and peaceful time here. The location is very private so at night you hear little to no noice. The house was stocked full of anything that you would need, either pots and pans, special coffee mugs, cutting boards, etc. The design and look is inviting and relaxing. We ended every night sitting by the most beautiful fire place. Highly recommend. Oh and the spa feature was a plus as well!

A beautifully made up home with great attention to detail with fixtures and furniture. It's an Inspiring home if anyone is interested in home design. The bonus cabin is just as chic as the main house. The hot tub at sunset was a great way to relax. Overall the house is well designed but comfortable with an elevated viewpoint. A great mix of handmade art, vintage items and modern elements. I look very much forward to staying here again.

This place was even better in person than the already beautiful pictures. The location was perfect, within 10 min to all our favorite food, with a very drivable dirt road to the house (far less bumpy/pothole-y than typical). The layout of the space is very well considered, and all of the furniture was very well built, with particular consideration to material choices. The fireplace was a dream, and waking up every morning to light pouring through the wall of windows was nothing short of heavenly. 10/10 would stay again. Thank you homestead modern!

Me and my girlfriend wanted to take a trip top unwind and get away from the city with our pup, and this place was amazing! We wanted a place to disconnect from technology and there was always something to do! Highly recommend for your next stay! We felt right at home and enjoyed the peace and quiet

Review Date: 4/19/2025

What can I say—I wish this was my home! It was so spotlessly clean, the linens were amazing, the decorations artistic and minimal and my personal favorite: no artificial smells on the linens or in the toiletries. The kitchen supplies were also top notch. We couldn’t get enough of the hot tub and cold plunge and we loved relaxing in the hammock. It was the perfect place to stay on our trip to Joshua Tree!

Review Date: 4/14/2025

Honestly, the best Airbnb we have stayed at! Everything was just right, inside and out. Super clean and super simple, nothing more than we needed and everything in it's right place. It was perfectly balanced. Great location close to Joshua tree and just far enough away from Palm springs to make it feel remote. We could tell a lot of thought went into the selecting everything that was there, from individual pieces of furniture, the bedding and pillows, the books for us to read, the outside spaces, all the way through to the Sonos speakers that were there for us to use. Hot tub was perfect for relaxing in the evenings whilst soaking up the desert views and stars (and in the morning to watch the sun rise.) Can not recommend this place, and the hosts enough!

Review Date: 4/7/2025

This home was absolutely stunning. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery. We felt so relaxed and at home sharing wonderful family memories. The Kitchen was absolutely amazing.

Review Date: 2/18/2025

We stayed at the Yucca Hut for my wife’s birthday and had a lovely visit. The house was a real respite and had plenty of space for the two of us and our two children. The studio outside by the hot tub was a great additional area to get some room from each other and read a book (our eight year old loved this). While would have taken advantage of more outdoor spaces (patio, hammock area, cold plunge) in warmer weather, there was still plenty of room for all of us inside and the proximity to JT park was very convenient. The rural location was very dark at night but we had no issue finding it with GPS / cell service, plus reliable wi-fi in the house. I would totally stay here again! It would be an awesome space to share with another couple and still feel like we all have enough privacy and room to unwind. I don’t know that I would want to bring kids much younger than our 6 year old, just because of the nicer furnishings / art objects found around the house. Thanks!

At least my fifth time staying at this lovely home. We love it here. Beds are so comfortable and kitchen was a dream to cook in. It is rare to find a kitchen so well appointed in an AirBnB. The beds are super comfortable and the main room a dream to spend time in.

This is a very cool-looking midcentury home, super private, very clean, and a peaceful home for a getaway from the city and to be able to decompress.

Beautiful home that was straight out of Architectural Digest. The beauty of the inside, matched with the spectacular landscape of the outside, made for a truly amazing experience. It was heartbreaking to leave, but we’ll definitely be back soon…

Our stay at the Yucca Hut was perfect. It was exactly what we were looking for in a quiet, private week away near Joshua Tree. The property was gorgeous (inside and out), and it was very easy to feel “at home” in it. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, and the bathroom setup and amenities were great. We ordered Christmas dinner through Goldbelly, and the team at Homestead Modern was great about ensuring that we could have it delivered to their office and then conveniently pick it up after hours when we arrived in Yucca Valley. It worked out perfectly! We would highly recommend renting a Homestead Modern property. Next time we return to the area, we will definitely be renting one of their properties again!

Listen, if you’re a person who creates a wishlist before making a decision on an Airbnb selection and this one is on your list. BOOK IT. Don’t procrastinate any further, don’t keep revising the list. Book this one. The pictures are gorgeous but the grandeur of this places is hard to capture. It’s the best Airbnb in the desert. Do yourself a favor and stay here - soak in the hot tub, give names to all of the plants at night that are beautifully lit and sunbathe in front of the gigantic sliding doors in the impeccably designed living room. We’ll be back.

Review Date: 11/9/2024

We had a great stay at the Yucca Hut. I have stayed at many Airbnbs in the high desert and this by far was the best. The location is perfect and the property is beautiful. The design of the home is stunning and thoughtful. It’s clear that the experience of the guest was considered in the details of the space, from the handmade custom wood furnishings, to the curated artwork, while also being comfortable and inviting. We hope to return and will recommend to friends.

A fantastic stay. A beatiful, clean, and modern house on a large piece of property with all the amenities you want in the high desert. A hot tub and cold plunge, a hammock structure, etc. Very short drive to Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneertown. We were recommended this listing by a close friend and it exceeded our expectations. Will definitely return to stay soon!

Worth every penny, honestly seems too good to be true. Beautiful home, would recommend over any Joshua tree bnb.

I had a fantastic stay at Yucca Hut. The home was just like the pictures, beautifully designed and decorated. I loved the way it felt homey and warm without being cluttered. My favorite parts were the views from all the windows in the main living area and kitchen along with the hot tub in the morning and night. The AC also kept us cool during the heat without issue. For those staying with dogs, the property is not fenced so you’ll still have to keep them on leash. Even on leash, my dogs got cacti stuck in their paws multiple times - they’re all over the yard. I do love how the property is dog friendly inside and not strict like some other properties who don’t allow dogs on their furniture. This property provides a sheet you can lay down for them which I appreciated. I would definitely recommend this property. It was as beautiful and magical as the pictures show.

I wish I had never left. The longer I was there, the more the space impacted me. I e never felt so creative and so aligned. The bonus was the outdoor shower (I never even needed to use the indoor bathroom), the sliding doors, the shaded patio, the hammock, sunken jacuzzi, indoor fire place, and kitchen island. I could go on and on, I thought I’d use to the cabin (which is perfect) but would up spending most of my time in the main home. Staying was such a wonderful gift to myself

I sincerely enjoyed my visit at the Yucca Hut. We ended up extending our visit because we didn't want to leave! The cowboy tub was amazing, the hot tub was great, and the view was phenomenal. I really want to stay at the Yucca Hut again, but know I need to try Homestead Modern's other properties. Was perfect for a week of remote working.

I had a very good time at Yucca Hut! Nice private area and cute house. The bedrooms were so spacious and comfortable, especially the softest pillows I've ever used. The kitchen mostly had everything I needed. The best thing to make me want to comeback next time was that I could see the sunset and stargaze outdoor. The host was responsive and helped me with any questions we had. I definitely will come back!!!

One of the best airbnbs I've ever stayed in. The decor is immaculate. The amount of windows gives you amazing views of the sunrise/sunset if you aren't outside watching them. Kitchen was well stocked. The beds are comfortable. You couldn't ask for a more beautiful place to stay.

Great host - responsive & helpful, perfect location - short drive to joshua tree, yucca valley, and pioneertown, and beautiful home - clean & had the exact amenities we were looking for. hope to stay at yucca hut again!

My wife and I had a wonderful stay. The home was well equipped with everything we needed. The home was very clean and had a great selection of books to browse through. Would highly recommend.

Review Date: 2/21/2024

We will absolutely stay here again. The linens and towels were clean and of good quality, the bed and pillows as well. So comfy. The place itself is incredibly beautiful, sleek and modern yet warm and extremely well appointed. From laundry detergent to olive oil, great quality spices, coffee and sparkling water. Also, there’s not a long list of tasks you’re meant to complete before you leave in addition to paying a cleaning charge. I think they just ask you to run the dishwasher and leave your towels on the floor. Now let’s talk about the view. With wraparound sliding glass doors, waking up in the morning and walking into the kitchen was like walking into a painting, and the sunsets over the desert… We were in town for work so didn’t even fully get to use all the amenities. This is a great space for a romantic getaway, and is big enough for a family retreat. …there is even a whole other free standing bedroom in its own little outbuilding. Amazing place. LOVED it.

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time at Homestead Modern. The property feels secluded and cozy, and is a short 10-15 min drive to the Joshua Tree entrance. The home is super clean and we loved the owners artwork, ceramics, and overall vibe of the interior! We were here during a January rainstorm and didn't have any difficultly with the property's unpaved road in a small sedan. We would definitely stay here again when we visit during the warmer months!

This was our fourth stay at Yucca Hut in the last year. Always a treat to stay here and sleep on the wonderful master bedroom mattress. Hands down the best bed I’ve ever slept in at a rental home or hotel. Wonderful kitchen too.

Review Date: 12/12/2023

This home is amazing. The architectural design is beautiful, from the high ceilings, the concrete finishes, the exposed wood, to the amazing views through the expansive sliding glass doors. There was endless natural light. One of my favorite features was actually the round window near the entrance. The interior design was a combinations of modern minimal with Joshua Tree-esque touches. I noticed that the center piece tall cactus was the only cactus in the open concept kitchen/living/dining room which was a perfect touch that didn’t take away from the Joshua trees and cactuses in their natural desert environment that this property sits on. Overall the host was very responsive and polite. I mentioned that my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary so they went out of their way to drop off a complementary bottle of wine. Now that’s a host! Worth the stay. Don’t hesitate to book!

It was a lovely weekend end in this house. Spacious, full-equipped, and with a magnificent view, I totally recommend the location! We were also able to enjoy a late departure, that was really appreciated!

Review Date: 10/26/2023

Yucca Hut is a gem in the desert. It's incredibly clean, very comfortable, organized, the layout of the property enhances privacy, well-designed and managed. Truly no notes! Hosts were responsive and helpful, really made my stay extra special.

Review Date: 10/11/2023

This home was absolutely beautiful, the design felt luxury while still making us feel right at home. We are going to miss the simple beauties of surrounding nature as well as the home itself. We really loved this place!!

Review Date: 10/5/2023

What a beautiful place to escape to. Thoughtfully planned indoor and outdoor spaces give this home lots of welcome topographical variety — we spent lots of time at the house and never got bored or felt like we were missing out on what the surroundings have to offer. It was all right there on the grounds. Furnishings are comfortable and expertly contrasted to a creative effect — vintage and modern, antique with sleek. It’s an inspired space that inspires. This was my second stay at a Homestead Modern property and I’ll look for their listings first again in the future.

Review Date: 9/4/2023

WOW… is all I have to say! I had such an incredible stay in this beautiful space. My friend and I decided to take a last minute trip to the desert to recharge for the weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The space is even more beautiful in person — the pictures don’t do it justice. We spent the majority of our time relaxing in the hammocks, cowboy tub (so cool!!), and hot tub. I’ve been to Joshua Tree many times and I think this might be the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at. Will definitely be back and looking forward to booking with Homestead Modern again!

Review Date: 8/8/2023

i really can’t say enough about this place. it’s even more beautiful (and bigger) in person. the property is amazing and the house is situated to take advantage of the amazing desert views. the cottage was great for my writing partner who spent her days working there. super clear communication from hosts from start to finish. homestead modern management team is great and i look forward to booking another of their properties when i return to the desert. amazing experience!

The Yucca Hut is the perfect oasis in the hi-desert. The home is perfectly designed to offer comfort and peace. The beautiful space and thoughtful amenities allow for such a restful time. We loved soaking in the cowboy tub as the sun set and drinking coffee on the patio as the sun came up. Would highly recommend the Yucca Hut to friends and will visit again soon!

Review Date: 7/18/2023

This place was amazing, we really enjoyed our time here! It was easy to find and the check in/out process went smooth. The amenities were great - really enjoyed the cowboy tub, the hot tub, and the covered hammock area. The place was very bright and airy, while having multiple exits to the backyard to make the transition from inside to outside very seamless. This place is very aesthetic, perfectly integrated with the landscape, and peaceful.

Review Date: 7/7/2023

Absolutely beautiful home in the desert. Felt secluded and private, but still close enough to easily run into town if needed. The design of the home is so thoughtful and dreamy, would love to visit again!

Review Date: 6/24/2023

Absolutely delightful stay! It truly elevates the concept of a private retreat. The owner's unique style graces every corner, blending artistic design with functionality. Each space, from the living room to the outdoors, ignites creativity and connection. Our whole experience felt private and intimate. We were free to be alone with ourselves and the stars. The house is well distanced from neighboring properties. Elegant privacy fences make you seem even further. Homestead Modern was responsive and proactive. We will definitely stay here again.

Review Date: 6/18/2023

This was our third stay in the last year to this property and it did not disappoint. Really top notch views from the main room. Great hot tub and hammock shelter. Linens are top quality and the home is exactly as pictured. We hope to be back soon!

Review Date: 5/16/2023

We had the loveliest stay at The Yucca Hut! The place is so beautiful and more spacious than the picture. The house is still private without being too far from the main street. The host was very responsive when the shower wasn't working and had someone come in and fix it immediately. Would recommend this place to anyone visiting Joshua Tree!

Review Date: 5/6/2023

Outside shower did not work. No late check out. Otherwise great place.

Review Date: 4/24/2023

We loved staying here. Hot tub and desert surroundings were lovely. It felt very private. So many cute rabbits hopping around! Beds and linens were very nice. We had a great stay.

Review Date: 4/17/2023

Our stay at Yucca Hut was relaxing and inspiring! The house itself is comfortable and decorated thoughtfully and beautifully, and has everything you need - it felt like home but better. Little touches everywhere make it feel warm and cozy, like the sonos, fireplace, cozy daybed, and lovely ceramics and prints. We loved using the hot tub on chilly mornings with our coffee. There are so many great spots to enjoy the outdoors, all with very cool chairs. The location is great - close to downtown Yucca Valley AND Joshua Tree and just a hop skip to Pappys. We can’t wait to stay here again!

Review Date: 4/7/2023

We recently stayed at the Yucca Hut, and overall it was a positive experience. The location was convenient, providing quick access to Joshua Tree National Park, and the modern design of the space was a great touch. The stocked kitchen made meal preparation a breeze. The expansive outdoor space offered a breathtaking view of the desert landscape. The cozy atmosphere created by the fireplace was a pleasant addition after a long day of hiking. However, there were issues that detracted from our overall enjoyment. We found pet and human hair from a previous occupant. Despite reporting the issue to Homestead Modern's support team, our complaint went unanswered, and we felt that our concerns were not taken seriously. While some inquiries received prompt responses, the customer support team was less than friendly at times. Overall, we would recommend the Yucca Hut to others, but suggest that Homestead Modern improves its customer service to ensure guests feel heard and valued.

We had such a wonderful experience here! The space was beautiful, spacious, clean and cozy. Everything we hoped for and more. The kitchen was a great space, with everything you’ll need. The fireplace and dimmable lighting made the space feel like home. The hot tub was a nice addition as well, especially if you’re planning to do plenty of hiking. Highly recommend, and would definitely visit again!

Review Date: 3/5/2023

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was thoughtfully and creatively decorated, the beds were exceptionally comfortable, the hosts were wonderfully responsive, and I felt more like we were staying at a friend’s place than renting an Airbnb. Recommend!

Review Date: 2/22/2023

Our stay was fantastic. The location is a short 15 min or so drive to the closest park entrance and less than 10 to the downtown area. The property felt secluded and private but not super isolated. The pictures are accurate and the check-in/check-out was seamless. Very much enjoyed the hot tub in the mornings and evenings, the Sonos surround sound in the house, the indoor fireplace, and the BBQ on the porch. Beautiful place, would highly recommend.

Review Date: 2/14/2023

We can’t say enough good things about the Yucca Hut! If you are into setting the vibes with dimmed lights, music, and gorgeous views - nothing beats this place. Our favorite moments were watching the sunrise perfectly from the kitchen every morning. We will be back!

Review Date: 1/31/2023

Stayed 3 nights at the Homestead Modern and has the most relaxing and peaceful time here. The location is very private so at night you hear little to no noice. The house was stocked full of anything that you would need, either pots and pans, special coffee mugs, cutting boards, etc. The design and look is inviting and relaxing. We ended every night sitting by the most beautiful fire place. Highly recommend. Oh and the spa feature was a plus as well!

Review Date: 1/27/2023

A beautifully made up home with great attention to detail with fixtures and furniture. It's an Inspiring home if anyone is interested in home design. The bonus cabin is just as chic as the main house. The hot tub at sunset was a great way to relax. Overall the house is well designed but comfortable with an elevated viewpoint. A great mix of handmade art, vintage items and modern elements. I look very much forward to staying here again.

One of the best Air bnb’s we have ever stayed in - so peaceful, unique and lovely! Looking forward to coming back again - couldn’t have dreamed of a more idyllic space for a vacation.

we loved this place soo much. it was so clean and comfortable, beautiful decor and beautiful landscape. the hot tub was absolutely lovely and stayed hot for hours for stargazing despite the very cold temps outside. location was perfect, not too remote but plenty of privacy and distance from neighbors. we will def be back!

Review Date: 12/15/2022

This was our second stay at this house and we can’t wait to come back again soon. Super comfortable beds and nice kitchen. Highlight was the rainbow as we were packing up; easily the brightest I’ve ever seen!

Review Date: 12/12/2022

This place was even better in person than the already beautiful pictures. The location was perfect, within 10 min to all our favorite food, with a very drivable dirt road to the house (far less bumpy/pothole-y than typical). The layout of the space is very well considered, and all of the furniture was very well built, with particular consideration to material choices. The fireplace was a dream, and waking up every morning to light pouring through the wall of windows was nothing short of heavenly. 10/10 would stay again. Thank you homestead modern!

Review Date: 11/26/2022

The experience lived up to my expectations, a beautiful modern home with all the amenities and amazing views. It’s close to town but still get remote feeling. Communication with Homestead Modern team was timely and through, would definitely recommend and come back in the future !

Review Date: 10/17/2022

Loved spending a couple of days at this beautiful Airbnb. The design choices, hot tub and outdoor spaces were our draw to it, plus the location was nice to all of the JT happening’s. I’d recommend staying here!

Review Date: 10/10/2022

A lot of care was clearly put into the design of this property and we really enjoyed our stay. We hope to come back with friends and family soon. Especially loved how the hot tub is down low and protected from the evening wind and the great day bed in the main room by the circular window.
