Lovelight Ranch is our 5-acre hippie paradise, centrally located in the Coachella Valley. We are near the amazing 1000 Palms Oasis and Coachella Valley Preserve for great day hikes and wildlife viewing, and also near the splendors of Joshua Tree and the high desert.  We are within a half hours drive of Palm Springs, recently voted the hippest mid-sized city in the country and Coachella, home of the Coachella and StageCoach Festivals.  We are also very near Sam's Hot Water Spa, a chemical free hot springs soaking experience which is the perfect ending to a day of hiking, climbing or just sight-seeing. We offer accommodations ranging from tiny cabins, to camping - please read our listings for amenity information. Guests love staying here "We had the most amazing time at Mikey’s place. Spiritual, reflective, and beautiful. The dogs and Rocky were the best! Mountain Views didn’t hurt (; we will definitely be back…Mikey was a welcoming and generous host. We stayed in Desert Isle and had a mystical time. You won’t regret staying here!"

Beautiful sunsets
We brought our trailer to Lovelight ranch for 3 nights and loved the high desert views. Mikey was very helpful and we especially loved their dogs.

I arrived much later than expected and Mikey was kind enough to stay up to help with entry. Thank you for a mellow place to camp for the night! Cool art, and a clean bathroom was great, too.

The Desert Isle
Perfect Weekend Getaway
We had such an amazing time at the Desert Isle! Mikey (and all his amazing dogs!) was a perfect host and really went out of his way to make a truly awesome experience on the ranch. Our space felt secluded, but not too far way from the main house and shared kitchen/bathroom/etc. Loved having our our private fire pit. Would 100% come back again!

A lovely stay
What a great stay on Mikey’s property. He was a welcoming host and the place was magical. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The dogs on the property were kind and playful. Would definitely stay there again.

The place is a unique place to stay. I car camped, and it was dusty and windy (february) but that isn't Mikey's fault. There was a nice kitchen, outdoor cold shower and kitchen as well as multiple group spaces to hang out in. I'd do it again in better weather.

Mikey was so welcoming and made sure to show us around and to let him know if we needed anything. Beautiful views of the mountains, and his three sweet dogs hung around with us for most of the afternoon. Great jumping off point to explore the area.

The Desert Isle
A Hidden Gem
Super welcoming couple! Loved the convenience of everything they offered. Outside kitchen and bathrooms! Everything was super clean and the view were incredible! We had our four children with and they simply loved the Desert isle and playing with the dogs! Watching the sunrise from our bed was magical and the snow on the nearby mountains were such a sight! Would highly recommend staying there and WILL stay again!

Mikey’s land and lifestyle is one that matches no other. It really is a magical place. We had a great time exploring the grounds and seeing all of his artwork. You can tell that a lot of thought and effort has been put into make his place what it is.

Yes, there is so much to do there with the art work and outside community kitchen that brings people together. I meet great people all in good moods from Hikeing Joshua Tree. I'm coming back with my kids to this very friendly place and cute dogs running around. I had a lot of fun. What a blast

Incredibly welcoming hosts, wonderful dogs, so much heart and spirit to this place. The entire property is fenced in, so it’s a dream if you are traveling with a pup. Cool artwork, beautiful views, lots of little shady nooks to hang around in. Only about 15 mins outside Desert Hot Springs, 30 mins to palm springs.

Perfect for a getaway 🙂
Talk about a great experience, Mikey and Julie are honestly the sweetest people! They greeted us upon our arrival and gave us a very cool tour of their property. It’s a nice spread filled w good vibes and unconventional-intentional decor. It’s def a happy place w happy dogs and if you don’t mind spending some days in the desert, I def recommend lovelight ranch! Can’t wait to be back in the summer when drum circles and dance floors are alive! Thanks for an unforgettable trip! Ps also a nice place to trip if you’re into the fun guys👍🏼

Hippie paradise! Loved our stay at the Lovelight Ranch with the nicest hosts ever and their 3 awesome pups. The place is more eclectic and cool than anywhere we’ve been, with the most creative outside decor from all over. We plan on coming back for sure :) Thank you for a great experience!

Mikey was such an amazing host. My dad and my baby sisters came to visit me in the US for the first time since I’ve moved here and we did Christmas on the road in an RV. We had a beautiful time on Mikey’s land. Our entire family, including the dogs, felt at home. Mikey gave me and my baby sisters classes in drumming. He provided us with delicious coffee and wood for our fire pit. His land is full on wanders to discover. It’s an amazing place to bring your family and just be 🧡 I will be back very shortly 🧡

Mikey was an inviting host and Love Light Ranch is such a fun, quirky, relaxing place to stay. The outdoor kitchen saved us as we forgot our gas adapter for our grill at home. It is fully stocked with anything you need, including a microwave, grill, stovetop, and toaster. His dogs were a great addition too!
