Joshua Tree Sunset Retreat with Pool/Spa
The Home
This beautiful house was created by a well-known (and, yes, edgy...) film producer and a prominent screenwriter who married and used this dramatic setting for film maker retreats. American Psycho was not written here, but a number of their other films were. Renowned actors and directors have all enjoyed this stunning location with it’s monumental skylines and creative vibes in this comfortable and expansive 5-bed, 4500 square foot desert house.
It is is an art lover’s paradise. Each room is a different experience of color and style. The giant one-way mirrored windows throughout ensure you are connected to the desert yet invisible from the outside. Not that you’d need to worry however, the expansive 5 acre property offers unobstructed sweeping views of the horizon and peace and quiet.
The exterior boasts plenty of parking and a wrap around patio complete with massive covered area perfect for yoga, meditation or just...

House Rules
- We hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do. The remote location of this home provides the perfect place to slow down and relax. The stars and the sun shine brighter out here, nature speaks a little louder and sleep is deeper and quieter.
- This house is a beautiful and peaceful escape. We want all our guests to have a fantastic experience and hope you enjoy your time there as well. To that end, here are a few rules by which you must abide. Please note that we take these matters seriously and violations may result in immediate removal from the property.
- 1. This is not a party house. You are expected to treat our home with the same respect you would treat your own.
- 2. During your stay, no more than the contracted number of people may be on the property. If you wish to invite others over, you must first write to us and obtain permission. This helps us manage expectations for our housekeepers and the impact on the house. If you have more overnight guests than are listed in the booking, a charge of $75 per person per night will be applied.
- 3. Groups larger than 7 people or guests without any positive reviews must provide a supplementary deposit of $500. This fee will be submitted once your reservation is confirmed, must be paid within 48 hours, and will be fully refunded within 72 hours of checkout if all house rules are followed and the house is left in good condition. Should any violations arise, The property manager may choose to deduct any fees and costs from this Management fee or the Security Deposit paid by the guest. Deductions may include (but are not limited to) items such as:
- - Towels and Sheets soiled beyond cleaning
- - Small breakage items (glasses and plates)
- - Hourly management fees for processing such claims
- - Additional guests not claimed on reservation
- - Late checkout fees as indicated in house rules
- - Pool cleaning fees resulting from cover left open overnight
- 4. Our property is a beautiful place to shoot photos.. Professional shoots, however, are priced at a different rate and must be cleared with us in advance of your stay. If you are in doubt, inquire first. Rates range from $1500 to $9000 per day.
- 5. Please be considerate of the neighbors and keep music and voices at a respectful volume. There is a county-wide noise ordinance of no amplified music or loud noises outdoors after 10 p.m.
- 6. The property has two external security cameras monitoring the property, one is at the front door and one is pointed at the side yard/pool. These are required for our insurance and also for your safety. For your privacy, the feed automatically erases every 10 days. Obscuring, moving or otherwise altering the security cameras is prohibited. Fees of up to $1500 may apply to reset the cameras.
- 7. We love animals as much as anyone. But due to pet allergies among some of our guests, we have to keep the property an animal-free zone. Please note this is a no-exception rule with a fee of $500 per animal on property.
- 8. Joshua Tree is wilderness land. This means there are numerous animals with whom we share space. From coyotes to snakes to adorable jackrabbits, life is everywhere in the desert. And just like the prickly cacti that populate the area, some of these animals can be dangerous. Treat nature with respect. Do not allow children to explore unattended. You are solely responsible for your safety and the safety of all others on the property during your stay.
- 9. Swimming pools and hot tubs are fantastic and fun. But they can also be hazardous. The concrete around the pool, stairs and decks can be very slippery when wet. Children in and around the pool must be supervised at all times by an adult. Intoxicants and bodies of water are a risky combination. So we need to say this again: you are solely responsible for your safety and the safety of all others on the property during your stay.
- 10. The pool lid must remain closed when not actively in use. This is especially important overnight, as native animals could end up in the pool resulting in the need for removal and cleaning. Fees start at $500 for unscheduled pool cleaning.
- 11. There are multiple fire pits on the property that warm the night and provide fantastic places to lounge and watch the stars. We live in a dry desert environment. Never leave a fire burning unattended.
- 12. This home is a non-smoking building. Smoking is only allowed outdoors and more than 25 feet from the house with all windows and doors to the home closed. Smoking in the house will result in forfeiture of your deposit. Out of respect for the desert, you must remove all cigarette butts from the property to avoid additional cleaning fees.
- 13.The property is booked nearly solid with visitors departing and arriving the same day. For this to work for you and all our other guests, the earliest you may arrive is 4pm and you need to be fully checked out of the house and off property no later than 11:00am sharp or late fees of $300/hr will apply. Please help us stay on schedule and respect your fellow guests by checking out on time.
- 14. We didn’t think we’d have to say this, but no firearms are allowed. Also not allowed are llamas, helicopters, meth labs, wild animals, fireworks, satanic rituals, bombs, flamethrowers, paintball…
- 15. Anything that is illegal is also illegal at this home..
- It all boils down to this: be chill, be responsible, be honest, be respectful--and have fun!
