The spa heating is $75 for 4 hours. Pool heating is $250 per day. This covers the actual cost of the fuel needed to heat it. Note: Heating cannot be guaranteed, and we’re unable to offer discounts if the heater isn’t working during your stay. Pets are not permitted Quiet hours: 9 PM to 8 AM Parties and events are not allowed Smoking only permitted outdoors Please respect shared spaces and neighbors Wildlife: You may spot rabbits, roadrunners, lizards, coyotes, and other desert creatures.

This was such a beautiful and serene place. We're fortunate to have found such a refreshing home tucked into the gorgeous desert. I recommend bringing firewood, there's nothing better than stargazing next to the firepit. Desert Lily is a convenient location to access all that Joshua Tree has to offer. I'll definitely be back.

Beautiful space. I came here for a short get away and it was so serene! Will definitely be returning. One thing to note is there are dirt roads that lead to the air bnb. I was lucky enough to have been driving an suv otherwise getting there would’ve been tricky, but the locals did say that there had just been a pretty heavy rain and that is why the roads were so bad!

We recommend bringing your own car to get around as there are no public transportation options to get to the house. The Joshua Tree Highlands is loved for its scenic roads and rural neighborhood feel, but please note that the dirt roads can be rough and there are no street lights, so driving slow is highly recommended!
