Guest access
Guests have full, private access to the home and the main fenced portion of the property, where the hot tub, cowboy pool, dome, and outdoor amenities are located. You’re also welcome to explore the remaining acreage beyond the fence, understanding that it’s natural, undeveloped desert land.
A few doors and cabinets are locked for storage or maintenance use and are not accessible to guests.
Only registered guests are allowed on the property unless specifically approved during the booking process.

Other things to note:
Desert’s Nest is a pet-free and smoke-free home.
We care deeply about keeping the space clean, peaceful, and comfortable for all guests.
Families traveling with a toddler or infant are welcome — just keep in mind that the home isn’t equipped with baby-specific items like cribs or high chairs. Parents are fully responsible for their child’s safety and supervision during the stay.

Road Conditions:
For about 1.5 miles, you’ll be driving on unpaved roads, which can feel quite bumpy, especially after rain. This is typical for the area and part of the desert’s natural character. Please drive slowly and carefully.
A four-wheel-drive or high-clearance vehicle is not required, but can be helpful, especially after rain.

Security Camera:
For safety and peace of mind, there is one exterior camera facing the entrance gate and driveway only.
No cameras are located inside or in private areas.

Desert Wildlife & Safety:
Joshua Tree’s desert is full of life and natural beauty. Encounters with wildlife such as coyotes, snakes, or scorpions are rare, but it’s important to stay aware and keep a safe distance if spotted. Watch your step around cacti and other sharp plants, and respect the natural environment during your stay. By booking, guests acknowledge and accept the natural conditions of the desert landscape.

We kindly ask that you treat our home with care and respect
