Art of the Desert | Pool | Spa | Stargazing

A unique one-of-a-kind glamping experience.

The Art of the Desert is a restored 1954 mid-century “New Moon” retreat set amid 360 degree desert views, and from the same golden era as Lucille Ball’s The Long, Long Trailer. Just minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, it blends classic Hollywood lore with modern comfort, offering unforgettable sunrises, sunsets, and stargazing nights.

Locally managed by Desert Spirit, and good news, no Airbnb service fees at checkout.
