Boulders Outside. Bolder Inside.

(please read entire description)
Heated pool available year-round, inquire about heating fees!

Were you that kid who devoured stories about finding an enchanted house in a distant, magical land?
Welcome.
Do you long to walk from raw, silent desert into a breathtaking, artist-designed Faberge egg nest?
Welcome.
Do you adore sprawling spaces...intimate nooks...echoing silence filled with the whispers of desert ghosts? Do empty spaces somehow fill you up?
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
Boulder House sits on fifteen private, boulder -strewn acres. There’s a footbridge, seasonal creek, sometime waterfall. The land is pure desert gold.
And then there’s the House.
We are talking about a level of luxury, detail and aesthetic sophistication rarely found anywhere, much less in such a spectacularly remote location.
There are rock rooms. A carved-wood snake banister. Handmade tiles throughout. Decades’ worth of curated textiles, ceramics, paintings. Color. Color. Skylights. More color.
Practically speaking, you will find a fully equipped kitchen, cable, landline, Sonos speakers and WiFi. Period wood stove ( initial wood provided) for cozy nights around the fire. Powerful, dual-zone heat and air. Private hiking trails, views for days, privacy - in short, all the comfort and luxury you need to enjoy a memorable High Desert vacation.
Our expanded sleep options mean more friends and family can join. We sleep up to 14 comfortably, in beds. Improved pool, solar heated (only available during April-October), jacuzzi, outdoor shower, hammock and courtyard areas mean you'll be just as comfortable outside as in.
Have a bolder desert experience. At Boulder House.
