About This Home
As of March 2025Rockbound Oasis Retreat is a stunning property located on the edge of the renowned Joshua Tree National Park. Tucked among the dramatic boulders that define this iconic landscape, it offers panoramic views of the desert and the expansive valley beyond. This exceptional compound includes a main house, a charming guest house as well as a pool and spa, all surrounded by a lush garden of desert plants and cacti. The main house features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a cozy den that currently serves as an additional bedroom. The one-bedroom guest house boasts its own kitchen, bath, and breathtaking views, making it perfect for visiting friends and family. In addition to the remarkable views, the property offers direct access to numerous hiking trails just steps from the door. Rich in history, the property was originally developed in 1954 by Helen and Everett Gray, pioneering figures in the post-war Joshua Tree community who played a key role in shaping the town and were instrumental in establishing the Hi-Desert Medical Center. Currently operating as a successful vacation rental, this unique oasis captures the spirit of Joshua Tree in an ideal blend of nature, history and modern comfort.
