About This Home

As of May 2023

This original 1950s Jackrabbit Cabin, located in North Joshua Tree on a huge 5-acre lot with 360-degree views, offers an authentic off-grid experience with modern amenities. The property abuts over 600 acres of conservation land to the east, and 20 acres of BLM land directly to the west—ensuring the expansive views are protected. The property is powered by a solar system and is connected to city water, making it a comfortable and sustainable living space. The outdoor bathhouse adds a unique touch to the cabin's immersive outdoor experience. The cabin is an oasis in the desert—with well-maintained pathways, outdoor living spaces, a pistachio grove, mature trees, thriving plants, diverse bird species—all creating a serene and peaceful environment. Home comes fully furnished, except for some artwork, rugs and personal items. Located just 15-minutes from Joshua Tree town, 30 minutes from the National Park entrance, and two hours from Los Angeles—making it easily accessible for a weekend getaway. Unplug and disconnect from your daily routine and immerse yourself in the beauty and solitude in the heart of the Mojave desert.
