Summary:

Designed by Wolfgang and Connie Pichler, Desert Bloom is a newly built house that sits in a neighborhood yet lives as if it were alone, its backyard turned toward deep Joshua Tree views. Start with yoga mats on the covered patio, take a cold dip in the seasonal cowboy tub (closed November through March), rinse in the outdoor shower, then settle into the hot tub as the fire pit takes the chill off. Two queen bedrooms, two and a half baths. Small house, big sky.

Desert Bloom is a newly built home designed by Wolfgang and Connie Pichler. It sits in a neighborhood, but the house and outdoor areas feel very private. A hot tub with long views, a cowboy tub for warm months, an outdoor shower and a propane fire pit fill the backyard, and two queen bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms suit couples or a small family. Garage parking and no dirt roads make arrival easy; the rest of the stay belongs to the view.

Other Things to Note:

-House-Specific Rules-

► Please keep music at a reasonable volume and turn it off by the start of quiet hours.

► Please avoid using the hot tub right after it has been serviced, while chemical levels are temporarily higher.

► Weddings and events are by inquiry only and are subject to permits and applicable law.



-Pool and Hot Tub Service-

The hot tub and cowboy tub are serviced Tuesdays, approximately between 9am and 4pm. Please note that these times are estimates and may change slightly due to our technician's busy schedule. He will not approach the house but will go directly through to the backyard.

We welcome your dogs! There is a $100 per dog per stay fee, limit of 2 dogs maximum. Please note on your reservation how many dogs you are bringing. There is an unauthorized pet fee of $500. Please use the provided dog sheets before allowing your dogs on any furniture. Cats and other pets are not allowed due to the owner's severe allergy.

-Wildlife & Safety-

The desert landscape is teeming with wildlife and natural beauty, offering a unique connection to nature, but it's important to be mindful of the creatures and plants that call this area home. Guests may encounter a variety of wildlife during their stay, and while direct encounters with dangerous animals like coyotes, snakes, scorpions, bobcats, mountain lions and other desert dwellers are rare, it is important to be aware of your surroundings and to keep a safe distance from these creatures when spotted. Additionally, the desert is dotted with sharp cacti and other spiky plants. For your safety, always supervise children, pets, ESAs, and service animals while outdoors. Dogs should remain on a leash at all times and be watched closely while outdoors, as they can wander into potentially unsafe situations with wildlife or plants. By booking this property, guests acknowledge the potential for wildlife encounters and assume responsibility for their safety and the safety of their group. By respecting the local environment and staying aware, you can fully enjoy the magic of the desert.



-Security Camera-

For your security, there is one exterior camera facing the driveway, which monitors vehicles and occupancy. There are no cameras inside the home, in the back of the property or facing any private areas, including the hot tub and cowboy tub areas.



-Cell Service-

Cell phone coverage is available at the property, though reception can vary by carrier.



-Damage Waiver Policy-

Each reservation requires either a refundable security deposit or a non-refundable damage waiver.
