Everyone together.
In one place.

Desert Doghouse is a fully restored two story property between Joshua Tree and Yucca Valley, overlooking the open desert.

The 6 bedroom experiential retreat was designed for groups who want to spend several days together for the ultimate Joshua Tree stay.

Every Stay is Different

Guests come for:
 

      •  Birthdays & celebrations
      •  Bachelor / bachelorette weekends
      •  Retreats
      •  Private gatherings
      •  Editorial shoots
      •  Film & television shoots

A quiet weekend for six friends is very different from a 12-person celebration, a photo shoot, or a production with a daytime crew. Because of that, we don't use one generic pricing for every booking.

​

Pricing depends on factors such as:

• Group size
• Dates and length of stay
• Type of gathering or production
• Daytime guests or crew
• Pool heating
• Permit requirements
• Additional services or special requests

Plan Your Stay

We host a limited number of groups. Most weekends book well in advance.  That said we do have mid-week availability and cancellations. This calendar is subject to change.
