About this property
Minimalist desert retreat
Night Moves is a 4 bed 3 bath house in the desirable Joshua Tree Highlands area with epic 100 mile views. The house sits on an elevated, ecologically diverse 5-acre lot that backs up to boulders and mountains, adjacent to the National Park. The minimal aesthetic and large windows throughout integrate the house into its natural setting, drawing ones attention outside, to the expansive desert landscape and shifting light. The house offers many areas to hang out solo or in a group.

This thoughtfully minimalist property was perfect for our friend-group getaway. We really appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and inviting spaces for dining and socializing. Bedrooms and bathrooms were stylish and comfortable. And you can’t beat the location: remote while also being close to both the park and town. The host was very communicative and obviously has put a lot thought into what guests will need. We had a fantastic time and look forward to returning in the future!
The property is in a great semi-secluded location which is perfect if you want to unplug from devices and city-life. You're not too far from town in case you need to pick up anything which is convenient.
All listed amenities were in good working condition, and everything was clean and tidy. We didn't have to reach out to the host during our stay to report any issues with the property.
The host was very attentive, communicative, and overall great! Patty checked-in on us on our arrival date to ensure that we got in without issues which was very considerate given that finding the property does require driving on unpaved roads for a short stretch.
Our group highly recommends Night Moves!
We loved our stay at Night Moves! The host, Patty, is very responsive and welcoming. The property is gorgeous, especially at night. A perfect spot to unwind while enjoying some solitude.Our favorite part of the house was the kitchen and living room, the layout made it so easy to cook and entertain all while enjoying access to the porch. The next time we visit Joshua Tree, this house is top on our list.
