Welcome to High Desert Protocol, a serene 6-acre sanctuary nestled within the stunning Joshua Tree landscape. At the heart of this desert oasis lies an impressive 80-foot swimming pool and jacuzzi, seamlessly blending into the untouched surroundings. With the property adjacent to expansive public land, guests can enjoy unobstructed views that stretch for miles. This private and expansive compound is ideal for intimate gatherings, retreats, dinner parties, or simply a peaceful escape for those who seek style, seclusion, and an unparalleled desert experience. The property features two guest rental houses and a charming vintage Spartan Trailer, all available for booking via Airbnb or our website. Guests are invited to indulge in all the amenities the compound offers, including a spacious outdoor kitchen with a 20-foot concrete dining table, an outdoor bathroom, an art gallery, a hot tub, the swimming pool, and, of course, the breathtaking desert vistas. For those seeking unique accommodations, we offer two RV hookups and options to rent an on-site Airstream, a Teardrop trailer, a converted shipping container, a van, or even a sailboat with a stunning wooden interior. Additionally, guests have immediate access to hundreds of miles of trails, allowing them to explore the natural beauty of Joshua Tree right from the property—no need to drive anywhere!

Beautiful hikes. 20ft concrete table with fully stocked shared outdoor kitchen available for your use. Creative, calm, communal place to connect with nature and other interesting humans. It's dispersed camping, so you can pick your camping spot! The most space and always available location being at the entrance of the property in a spacious dirt lot. Please be mindful to not set up camp in designated RV sites or too close to rental houses, both marked with signs. Please do not block any roads with tents or vehicles. A public semi-outdoor restroom and cold-water shower is also available for your use. Located in a tin building attached to a small house with a green roof, marked as "WC". Be warned we are up a dirt road that sometimes gets ruts from rain wash. Sedans without 4wd make it frequently, but drive with caution.

Tao's campsite offers a unique desert experience with stunning views, a creatively designed pool and hot tub, and an inviting atmosphere. Guests rave about the serene setting, perfect for stargazing and relaxing. However, some mention maintenance issues with broken glass and non-operational amenities like the hot tub, which could use more attention. Despite these concerns, the site remains a popular choice for its artistic landscape and welcoming host.
