Extreme attention to the largest and smallest of details to allow every moment of your stay to feel like you are enjoying a stay at a wild west motel. The red swinging saloon doors and bedroom doors are a beautiful contrast to the cracked pepper walls and ceilings. Solid walnut baseboards and door ceilings add a rustic, warm cabin element to the overall design. The cozy interior captures amazing views of the picturesque mountain and desert valley views. Outside there are plenty of places to gather fireside with family and friends. The peaceful desert breezes and crisp fresh air are a rejuvenating experience from the daily grind. Just minutes away, there are dirt roads straight out to coyote dry lake bed where there is wide open blm land , trails and sand dunes to enjoy in your offroad vehicles. You may like to take a day trip to joshua tree national park and see some amazing rock landscapes and desert valleys sprinkled with wildlife and the famous joshua trees! Between downtown joshua tree and yucca valley you will find small diners, cafes and vintage shopping adventures. We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we do.
