The Olive Branch: 3.6-Acre Desert Escape with Hot Tub, Office & Stargazing

Escape to tranquility at The Olive Branch, a mid-century modern gem nestled on 3.6 serene acres in Yucca Valley. This 2-bedroom house with an office provides a peaceful retreat for relaxation and remote work. With only two neighbors along our dirt road and a convenience store less than a mile away, you'll enjoy a rare and beautiful experience in this idyllic setting.

Unwind outside in the covered 6ft cowboy tub* or the jacuzzi, both accommodating up to 4 people. Enjoy your morning coffee under the shade of the olive tree, and after sundown, stargaze while roasting s'mores around the 48" concrete fire bowl. Later, stream a movie or your favorite show indoors with the Epson 4K projector on the 110" drop-down screen. (*Cowboy tub available June through September.)

Enjoy a convenient and stress-free stay with amenities like an office featuring an Autonomous standing desk, WiFi, washer/dryer, filtered water dispenser, dishwasher, and AC/heating in every room. The property includes two full bathrooms: one with a shower/tub combination, and a newly remodeled second bathroom with a walk-in rain shower, towel warmer, and a large picture window overlooking our towering Joshua Trees. Sleep in with blackout curtains in the bedrooms, which offer a comfortable queen bed (primary) and a full bed (secondary) with Parachute linens for a peaceful night's sleep.

The newly remodeled kitchen, fully equipped for longer stays, offers breathtaking views of the desert and our olive tree, turning meal prep into a delight. Our home is perfect for those seeking sun-soaked rooms, endless desert vistas, and private moments in a serene landscape with inspiring sunrises and epic sunsets. Bring thick-soled shoes for sunrise and sunset walks on our beautiful 3.6-acre property, and a yoga mat for your daily practice in the open space of our living room.

The Olive Branch is conveniently located near major attractions: 18 minutes from Joshua Tree National Park's West Entrance, 13 minutes from the famous Integratron, and under 20 minutes to Pioneertown.

Sweet little house with lots of light

We had a great time here. We loved the remodeled kitchen and overabundance of light throughout the space. We also enjoyed the large yard. The second bathroom, which is not pictured on VRBO, is not remodeled and would be a good idea to match the rest of space. Stains on kitchen rug and some other minor maintenance things were distracting, especially at this price point. Owners were responsive and lovely to deal with! Thanks!
