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.
Please reach out if you have any questions about the property.

If you want a place to getaway and enjoy the magic of the high desert, Cielito on Sunny Vista is the place. We're located north of Joshua Tree Village on 5 acres. The skies are dark, the stars are bright and all the stress of the city melts away. We're approx. 10 min to downtown JT, 20 min from the west entrance of the National Park and only 10 min from the Integratron. Pioneertown is just to the (wild) west where you can take a stroll down Mane street, go to the famous Pappy and Harriet's or belly up to the bar at Red Dog.
Accommodations include Lucy, a 40' 1956 Paramount PanAm park model trailer with all original interior and some added modern comforts. When you enter, it's like stepping back in time! Lucy sleeps two adults and up to two kids on the sofa. There is also the option to add Dessie, the casita, for up to 2 additional guests.
We are dog friendly and encourage you to bring your fur babies!
Property includes all the necessary amenities, a picnic bench for outdoor dining, a BBQ, your own fire pit to enjoy when it's safe to do so and a pool for those hot summer nights.
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.
Please reach out if you have any questions about the property.

The A frames with bedding and lighting offer a quiet retreat after being outside and exposed to the desert. This is especially true during the windy month of April. The outdoor flushing toilet sink and shower are private and airy. There is also a partitioned and inviting kitchen/gathering space for cooking and eating at a table. We walked, and walked in every direction from the A frame (since it is tucked away from the road) without having to cross a street or intrude on neighbors. We saw wonderful birds and wildflowers, various Joshua trees and jack-rabbits. We heard coyote in the distance. Devil's Punchbowl is a short drive away...and must be experienced. Lake Los Angeles is a 7 minute drive away and has a Dollar General store...which has everything food, drink, necessities related. Osman created a very welcoming outdoor and indoor space that is well lit and safe and clean and warm and quiet...we loved out stay.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The trailer was clean, quiet, and in a good location not far from Joshua Tree National Park. The hosts were very attentive and thoughtful. They provided some water, paper towels, and logs for the fire pit. For us, staying in a trailer felt much more comfortable than camping in a tent. We would definitely recommend this place.

Weekend Trip to Star Ranch
We had an amazing time staying at Osman’s ranch. The property was beautiful, peaceful, and perfect for a camping getaway. The A-frame setup made the experience feel unique while still being comfortable and well thought out.
Osman was super professional and an amazing host from start to finish. He was responsive, welcoming, and made sure everything was smooth for our group. You can tell he truly cares about creating a great experience for his guests.
The space was clean, well maintained, and had everything we needed. Being able to have campfires and bring pets made it even better. It was the perfect spot to relax, enjoy nature, and spend quality time with friends.
Would definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable outdoor stay.

Staying in the Spartan was the perfect “glamping” experience. The stars were beautiful at nighttime. The pool was great on a hot day. It was easy to drive to and from the national park. Very cool and unique shared spaces as well. I would definitely stay here again.

The place is nice for anyone who wants to experience camping without actually camping. It is well equipped with the bed and pillow being nice. There is light inside which was really helpful. However, I must note that it is a bit far from Joshua national park and there are almost no light outside camp. But for the price this place is worth it. If you are tall (above 6”) note that you might feel a little cramped in the place since your head might touch the ceiling

This is one of the coolest hip camps I’ve ever stayed in!! Well worth the visit if you are in the area and want to see Joshua tree. The pool and hot tub are fantastic and incredibly beautiful with the sunrises and sunsets. Tao is a great host and very responsive and the overall vibe of the hipcamp is very cool and well done!

Our stay at this cabin in Green Valley Lake was everything we needed and more. It was the perfect escape from the city.
The cabin itself was incredibly spacious and well maintained. With three floors and four outdoor decks, there was no shortage of places to unwind and take in the peaceful forest views.

We enjoyed the trailer as it had a great view of the stars and sunrise. Trailer was clean and as advertised; we brought sleeping bags and pillows. The only bummer was that we are light sleepers and the neighbors played music that could be heard from the trailer.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to stay while visiting Joshua Tree. Tao’s property is fun, welcoming, and equipped with everything you need - and then some! We took advantage of the trails near the property and then spent time relaxing in the pool and hot tub. If you’re looking for a magical space to get in touch with yourself and the land, then this is the place! Definitely will be back again!! Thank you Tao 💛

1 night at The Sunrise Sanctuary
I was in town to meet my dad for the first time ever. Afterward, I really needed somewhere safe and quiet to land — a place where I could process everything and ground myself. I didn’t have a big budget, so finding something affordable was important. Then I found Amy’s place. It was affordable, really cute, and exactly what I needed. I kept my phone charged with a battery pack, sat in the moonlit camper, and wrote. It ended up being a really meaningful and grounding experience.

Weekend Trip to High Desert Protocol
This property is amazing! So much to explore and enjoy.
The Gallery experienced some weather damage from rainstorms prior to my visit, so the team at HDP upgraded me to the Robin's Egg, which was extremely generous. The accommodations were excellent, with so much cool art and media to explore. I enjoyed the clawfoot tub as well as the many patios to step outside onto.
I spent time during both evenings of my stay in the hot tub, under the stars. So nice to meet fellow travelers in there, as well as enjoy alone time.
Both mornings, I walked the trails behind the property, taking in the views (including many Joshua Trees!)
The road up to the property is unpaved but in good condition. My SUV handled it fine.
The communication from the team beforehand, during, and after was informative.
