Rumor has it our house was built by the famed western actor Alan Ladd as a secret getaway back in the 50s. There’s 5 acres, partly shaded by old mesquite trees and native Washingtonia palms that tower over rock lined paths. I recently fixed up our old 1949 tear drop camper for staying in after it had been abandoned for 30 years. It’s equipped with solar power, a gas burner, a pump sink, and a cooler.
This is a place for people that love old stuff! No marble countertops and stainless steel will be found. For lovers of the funky. There’s an outhouse, an outdoor shower, and a 9 foot deep swimming pool too. We’re situated between the San Andreas fault and the the Little San Bernardino Mountains, so spectacular hikes are a short walk away. After every golden sunset, the stars do not disappoint.

Escape to the magic of the high desert at Lucy Under the Stars — a peaceful 5-acre retreat just north of Joshua Tree Village. Here, the skies are dark, the stars shine bright, and the pace of city life feels worlds away. Whether you’re seeking quiet mornings, desert sunsets, or a night under the Milky Way, this is a place to slow down and reconnect.
Your stay includes Lucy, a beautifully preserved 40-foot 1956 Paramount PanAm park model trailer filled with nostalgia, mid-century charm, and thoughtful modern comforts. From the baby pink appliances to the aqua countertops, stepping inside feels like traveling back in time. Lucy comfortably sleeps two adults in a private bedroom that has a queen size bed, with additional space for up to two children on the sofa.
Need extra room? You can add Dessie, the charming yellow casita, to your booking for accommodations for up to two additional guests. You’ll find this option under “Extras” when booking your stay. (Please note: Dessie does not include a bathroom.)
Conveniently located just 10 minutes from downtown Joshua Tree, 20 minutes from the west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, and 10 minutes from the Integratron — the iconic sound dome built by ufologist George Van Tassel — Lucy Under the Stars also offers easy access to nearby Pioneertown. Spend an afternoon strolling down historic Mane Street, catching a meal & live music at the iconic Pappy & Harriet’s, or grabbing a drink at the Red Dog Saloon.
We’re proudly dog-friendly, so your four-legged companions are welcome too.
As for me, your host, I previously had a weekend property that included 4 raw campsites. I love Joshua Tree so much that I sold that place and chose to buy a cabin so I could live here full-time. Now that I'm settled, I'm excited to host again. This place brings me so much peace and I enjoy sharing it with others.
I live in a cabin onsite but respect the privacy of my guests.

We met dianna as we drove in and im glad we did. She was extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful. She gave us a walkthrough of the area and made sure everything was running/functioning properly ahead of time. She left us prepared, reassured and feeling safe. This is a great place to relax, about a 15-20 minute drive to food and stores, plus you get to meet her pup who is the sweetest. We had an amazing stay thank you!

Weekend Trip to Casa Cobalt Desert Trailer
I absolutely could not be more pleased with my 3 night stay in this cozy trailer. I originally booked 2 nights, but Chris told me I could come in very late Friday after work, and that already told me how hospitable he would be. Upon arrival everything was set up for me to enjoy cozy desert comfort. It was so cute and had all I needed to enjoy my rest when needing to balance play in JTNP. Chris checked in with me often, and turned the cool on for me on a hot day so I’d return to a nice chill trailer. There is a roadrunner nesting in a yucca that I got to see right from the porthole. I used the rear entrance on my stay and it worked out great. The bed was so cozy. Brought my own blankets and pillow but pillows were provided. I napped on the orange fold out and watched Netflix using my hotspot on breaks from playing outside. I got take out and kept in the fridge and then microwaved it. So didn’t need to cook any of my backpack meals at all. The vibe in the trailer and energy on the property are amazing. Such a wonderful experience with such gracious hosts. Already planning to come back in the Fall.

Weekend Trip to Mineral Spring Date Farm
I prefer camping in nature than sleeping in a Hotel and this is just absolutely perfect. It's super quiet, beautiful and has private HotSprings. The bed is very comfortable also, slept like a log,

2 nights at High Desert Protocol
I have to say this was very accurate depiction of what we received, and in the world of home sharing that is more valuable than anything in my opinion. If anything I think this was better than depicted. The Spartian was clean, it had minimal kitchen amenities but enough for what we were looking for. We came with the intention to mainly just use the grill for our cooking, so it worked great for us.
The whole compound is actually really cool, you are secluded away from other properties, you can walk around the property and uphills for greater view points and views of the sunset. At night you get great star gazing. I will say if you are here for the ultimate star gazing it’s about a 7/10 because we wish we could have seen them a lot better but there are towns that give off a bit of light pollution. So maybe J tree camping would have been the move for that.
Over all the space/ property was beautiful, the pool was sick, and the host was responsive and very low key. 10/10 would recommend

Weekend Trip to Camp Squish Airstream - Joshua Tree
Camp Squish made your weekend in the hi-desert one we will never forget. The hosts put such care and thought into every detail. The airstream is so cozy and fully appointed. We don’t cook, but we’re so impressed that we could if we wanted! Love that there is a grill for outdoor cooking. All bedding and towels are high quality. Do not hesitate in booking right away if you are considering Camp Squish!

Weekend Trip to High Desert Protocol
We absolutely loved our time at High Desert Protocol. We have stayed in a lot of places in the desert and this one is a true gem if you are looking for a fun but tranquil getaway!
We stayed in the Gallery which is very centrally located and is a well-decorated amazing space featuring AC which made it very comfortable. The two beds are on opposite sides of the container so it is a really nice option even for two couples or two people to have their own beds. The decor is lovely and there is a surprising amount of natural light in this shipping container which is a credit to Tao's construction (but bring an eye mask if you want to sleep in!).
The pool is just as breathtaking in real life as it is in the photos. We met a few other guests there and none of us wanted to leave.
The Quonset Hut is an incredible space, with a great bathroom with a double shower, and a VERY cozy lounge area and huge dining table. We went to a show at Pappy & Harriet's on one of our nights (only 15 minutes away) and then chilled in the Quonset Hut to decompress. A perfect evening!
The outdoor kitchen is well-equipped and the outdoor dining table is absolutely massive and looks like it's built for quite the party.
Tao's directions for check-in and his communication through our stay were perfect, and I got to meet him briefly, and he also seems as great as this incredible property. We can't wait to go back! Tips for other guests: bring bug spray for sunset and definitely bring shoes for exploring!

Really enjoyed my stay in the retro green trailer!
Decorated so cute, everything I needed was supplied and I felt safe and comfortable there.
The hosts were so very nice and the property was beautiful. Loved the desert sky at night, was so peaceful.
Will come back and stay again!
