Stylish Desert Oasis I 5 Private Acres Near Park

Nestled in the Joshua Tree Highlands, Casa Rocosa is a serene desert retreat that blends midcentury character with modern comfort. Just minutes from the national park and village center, it offers a rare mix of privacy, style, and convenience. Whether you're here to hike, explore local art and food, or simply rest beneath the stars, Casa Rocosa is the perfect place to unwind.

Welcome to your own slice of the High Desert. Whether you're starting your day with coffee under a rising desert sky or soaking under the stars after a day of hiking, this home is a space to unwind, reconnect, and feel far from it all—without sacrificing access to all the great restaurants, bars, and shopping in the area!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

🛋️ THE SPACE
Thoughtfully renovated in 2025, the home is designed with an eye for simplicity, calm, and livability. Clean architectural lines and a neutral palette are softened by organic textures, cozy nooks, and curated midcentury furnishings. Every room invites you to slow down and take in the beauty of the desert.

The open-concept living space includes:
- A spacious living room with two sofas (that can be converted into twin daybeds for sleeping), an armchair + ottoman, and a Samsung Frame TV
- A fully stocked kitchen with modern appliances and seating for three at the island
- A light-filled dining area with seating for six and large picture windows framing desert views

Bedrooms & Bathrooms: The home includes three thoughtfully appointed bedrooms and three bathrooms
- Bedroom #1: King bed, armchair, and bathroom with a soaking tub and walk-in shower
- Bedroom #2: King bed, armchair, and en suite bathroom with walk-in shower
- Bedroom #3: Full-over-full bunk beds with twin trundle bed, armchair, cabinet storage, and half bath (toilet and sink only)
Each bedroom offers high-quality Parachute bedding, shades, and views of the landscape beyond — ideal for restful nights and slow mornings.

Casa Rocosa was created as a place to truly unwind. You’ll find quiet corners to read or reflect, a telescope for moon viewing, art supplies for inspired moments, and a library of board games for unplugged fun.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

🏜️ THE OUTDOORS
Step outside to enjoy the kind of space that only the desert can offer. Casa Rocosa is built into a hillside and surrounded by nature, offering a level of quiet and seclusion that’s hard to find.

- Private hot tub with views of open sky and rugged hills
- Shaded patio with hammock, lounge seating and fire pit
- Outdoor dining table for eight
- Outdoor shower for refreshing post-hike rinses

Enjoy your morning coffee to the sounds of quail and desert wrens, and your evenings under a sky full of stars.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
✅ ESSENTIALS

Whether you're planning a romantic retreat, a creative reset, or a comfortable base for exploring Joshua Tree, Casa Rocosa is ready to welcome you. We look forward to hosting you in this very special corner of the desert.

Guests will have full private access to the entire home, including all indoor and outdoor spaces. That includes the living areas, kitchen, all three bedrooms and bathrooms, laundry room, shaded patio, and hot tub. The home sits on 5 secluded acres, offering total privacy and plenty of space to relax, explore, and enjoy the beauty of the desert.

Guest interaction is minimal to ensure your privacy and relaxation. We're available via the booking app for anything you need, and our local property manager is nearby and on hand should any in-person support be required.

Located in the scenic Joshua Tree Highlands, this peaceful neighborhood sits just minutes from the national park entrance. Known for its sweeping views, quiet atmosphere, and striking desert terrain, the Highlands offer the perfect mix of seclusion and convenience — close to town, yet surrounded by nature, boulders, and big skies. It's an ideal base for hiking, stargazing, and soaking in the magic of the desert.

Casa Rocosa feels a world away — yet it’s less than an 8-minute drive to:
- Joshua Tree National Park West Entrance
- Downtown Joshua Tree for restaurants, shops, coffee, bars, and the Saturday Farmers Market

Just what we were looking for in joshua tree! The property was clean and comfortable. We loved being down the street from the park, near the town yet secluded enough to enjoy peace & quiet. Would love to stay again!

Perfect location close to the city of Joshua Tree and the west park entrance. Quiet and peaceful. The family room has beautiful views. We watched a family of coyotes (4 adults , 3 youngsters) walk thru the north patio one morning.

This house has an amazing view, and is very comfortable. Part of the appeal is how far it is from civilization, yet only a few minutes from the Joshua Tree park entrance or the town itself. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back!

The Zen House truly has zen feel. There's a fabulous freestanding patio with comfortable seating and wonderful views. Just the place for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. The house is stocked with everything you could possibly need. There are also gorgeous views from the living spaces. My two sisters and I the best time in this beautiful, peaceful place.

We loved our stay at Zen House! The location is quiet and beautiful -- so many places to sit outdoors and enjoy the expansiveness and beauty of the desert. The kitchen is well stocked, bathrooms are lovely (including the outdoor shower) and everything we needed was available. Close to park entrance for hiking and town for food. Would stay here again in a minute!
