Desert Lily - Room 2

The Desert Lilly is minutes from downtown Joshua Tree and minutes from the park entrance!

We recommend bringing your own car to get around as there are no public transportation options to get to the house. The Joshua Tree Highlands is loved for its scenic roads and rural neighborhood feel, but please note that the dirt roads can be rough and there are no street lights, so driving slow is highly recommended!

Pool and spa heating is available for an additional fee, as propane is very costly in the desert. Please inquire before booking if you’d like the pool or spa heated. The spa heating is $75 for 4 hours. Pool heating is $250 per day. This covers the actual cost of the fuel needed to heat it.

Note: Heating cannot be guaranteed, and we’re unable to offer discounts if the heater isn’t working during your stay.

Pets are not permitted

Quiet hours: 10 PM to 9 AM

Parties and events are not allowed

Smoking only permitted outdoors

Please respect shared spaces and neighbors

Wildlife:

You may spot rabbits, roadrunners, lizards, coyotes, and other desert creatures. The desert is peaceful but alive with nature. Keep doors closed and food sealed, and enjoy the quiet beauty of this high-desert landscape.
