  • Summary:

    Tucked right into the heart of downtown Joshua Tree, Skull Rock Cottage is a modern one bedroom hideaway designed for walkable town convenience. Featuring a plush king bedroom, a private hot tub under dark skies, an outdoor bocce ball court, and an EV charging station, this stylish escape sits just steps from local cafes and ten minutes from the national park entrance.



    The Space:

    Inside, a sunlit living space blends clean contemporary design with laid back desert charm, complete with central air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, state-of-the-art appliances, and a vinyl record player. Step out into the private backyard to enjoy an array of outdoor amenities: challenge friends to a game of bocce ball, fire up the gas barbecue, gather around the propane fire pit, or take an evening soak in the sparkling jacuzzi.



    Skull Rock offers the ultimate launchpad for couples or solo travelers wanting quick access to local culture without sacrificing high end amenities. You can walk right out your front door to stroll to the local farmers market, pop into nearby coffee shops, or grab drinks at the local saloon, then drive ten minutes up the road to explore the national park. After a day of exploring, head home to spin records and stargaze from the private hot tub.

    LOCAL ADD-ON EXPERIENCES

    From sound baths and in-home massages to stargazing under some of the darkest skies in Southern California, we've handpicked local vendors to match whatever mood you're in. Book a personal chef for a lazy night in, saddle up for a horseback ride, or take a guided hike through the National Park or other local trails. However you want to spend your time here, relaxing or adventuring, the desert (and our favorite locals) has you covered. Once your reservation is confirmed, let us know you are interested and we will connect you!



    Guest Access:

    The property and house is yours to roam and relax.



    Getting Around:

    We recommend traveling by car to explore Joshua Tree for maximum flexibility, as ride sharing services are unreliable. If you prefer not to drive, the local taxi service Lucky 777 is a dependable option. Our property offers free parking for up to four vehicles to ensure your car is kept secure during your stay.



    Other Things to Note:

    3:00PM Check-In: We'd love for you to check in before 8pm so you have plenty of daylight to settle in and get comfortable before dark.



    Mini Splits: Each room is equipped with its own mini-split unit, allowing guests to individually control heating and cooling for personalized comfort.



    Pets Allowed: We welcome dogs for a fee of $60 per dog, with a maximum of 2 dogs per stay. Please note that no other pets are permitted at this property.



    Guest Policy: We only allow the number of guests listed as the maximum occupancy for this property, so any additional day guests must be requested and approved in advance. No extra overnight guests are permitted beyond those included in your reservation.



    Watch your Step: This desert land holds onto bits of its past, so you may spot the occasional rusty object or piece of glass in the yard, please wear shoes anytime you're outside. You'll also be sharing the landscape with local snakes and scorpions. They want nothing to do with you, so if you see one, just back away calmly and quietly



    Wood Burning Fires: We do not permit wood-burning fires anywhere on the property at any time, including in fire pits or fireplaces, due to the high risk of wildfire in our area. This policy is strictly enforced for the safety of our guests, neighbors, and the surrounding landscape,.



    Desert Critters: Please keep doors closed while entering and exiting, curious critters will let themselves in given the chance. Desert wildlife is part of what makes this area special, expect sightings of jackrabbits, tortoises, roadrunners, quail, and lizards. You may also spot coyotes, rattlesnakes, scorpions, or occasionally a bobcat or mountain lion. Most just want their space, so it's best to give them yours.



    Camera/ Decibel Monitor: This property has forward-facing exterior security cameras, but there are no cameras anywhere inside the home. We also use noise decibel monitors indoors to help avoid disturbing neighbors. These only measure sound levels and never record audio.



    Interaction with Guests:

    We like to respect our guest’s privacy, so you won’t see too much of us - unless you need us to come by. We will be available to answer any questions you may have and to help make your stay more enjoyable.
