About this property
Epic Desert VIEWS, Walk to Pappy’s + Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Private, Dogs Welcome!
Escape to Pioneertown and let the desert work her magic on you. Set back on a dirt road with endless views, this stylish and minimalist Scandi boho retreat feels worlds away from everything, but Pioneertown's Mane street is only about a mile away. Walk to get tacos at Red Dog, see a show at Pappy and Harriet's, or check out some of the new boutiques on Mane Street. Come home and enjoy a soak in the hot tub, light a fire in the propane firepit, and do some stargazing. You'll never want to leave.
THE SPACE ★ walk to Pappy & Harriet's & Red Dog (15 min stroll or a 2 min drive) ★ walk to trails in the Pioneertown Mountain Preserve ★ 20 minute drive to La Copine ★ 25 minute drive to the west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park ★ 30 minute drive to the Integratron ★ hot tub, propane fire pit, BBQ grill ★ super fast Starlink internet ★ cute new desk + work area
• THE STORY
I fell in love with Pioneertown the first time I walked into Pappy and Harriet's many years ago, and I bought my house here in 2018. I spent about a year completely renovating it, and now I split my time between Los Angeles and Pioneertown. This isn't just a rental, it's my home. All of the decor and furnishings were carefully selected, and I do have some personal things here. Please be respectful and I hope you enjoy the property as much as I do!
• THE SPACE
The Pioneertown Lodge is a 2000 square foot three bedroom, two bath modern oasis just across the road from downtown Mane Street. Designed in a blend of Scandinavian coziness and Japanese minimalism infused with the spirit of the desert, the home is furnished with carefully selected modern and vintage pieces. It’s the perfect place to connect with friends and family, or spend the night after a show at the iconic desert roadhouse Pappy and Harriet’s. Hiking trails in the Pioneertown Mountain Preserve (a locals’ favorite) are super close, and the west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park is just 25 minutes away. Stroll over to downtown Pioneertown (about a mile away) to check out the shops and the newly reopened Pioneer Bowl, grab tacos or drinks at Red Dog, hang out at Pappy’s, and then head back to your dreamy abode to decompress and revel in the desert night sky—it’s the perfect place for stargazing. You’ll never want to leave.

Sink in to the plush leather couch in the living area while you watch TV or listen to records, or play your music from the bluetooth enabled Bose soundbar. Dine while watching the sunset out the huge floor to ceiling windows (dining table seats 6.)

The kitchen has a gas stove and oven, pots and pans so you can cook up a nice desert meal. Two leather stools sit at the butcher block counter top, and the kitchen table has seats for 6. Coffee maker, expresso machine, cold brew maker, small Magic bullet blender, toaster, microwave.
• THE OUTDOORS The property sits on just over an acre of land with plenty of hang out areas. Watch the sun set over the Sawtooth mountains from the front patio, or relax on a hammock on the covered back patio. Sit out by the propane firepit or chill in the hot tub. The back patio also has a couch, propane grill and picnic table for all your BBQing needs.
Guest access Guests have access to the entire property.
Other things to note This is the desert and you'll probably see some wildlife while you're out here. If you brings pets, please keep them close when you're outside - we do have coyotes, bobcats, snakes, and scorpions!
The house is on a well, so the water pressure in the kitchen is a little low. This is normal, just be aware.

This was a perfect for a girls' getaway! walked to Pappy's Show and what an amazing sunset and desert views! The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need for cooking. Spacious and private back yard, my dog had a blast and the host was very responsive, we will be back!
Great place to stay if seeing a show at Pappie and Harriets. House was super clean and everything we used at the place worked as expected. We loved that you can hike to pioneertown preserve right from the house. Nice place to get away for a night, we will stay here again.
