Located in the heart of Joshua Tree Village, this home is the perfect get-away spot for business or pleasure.  Easy access to the JTNP West Entrance or walk a few blocks to experience the local flavor of Joshua Tree with eateries, shops, brewery, art galleries, music venues, and a Saturday farmers market.  The house is well suited for the extended stay visitors. Let the Sunset Roost be your destination home!  

The house is clean and well-appointed sleeping a maximum of six with two bedrooms (queen beds) an Olympic Queen (a tubby-queen) sleeper sofa for when your group needs just a little more space.  

When you're not exploring you can sit back and relax in the family room with Hi-definition SmartTV including Netflix access. The hi-speed WiFi is capable of streaming, surfing, or when you have some pesky work to deal with.  

A common draw to the desert isn't just for the beauty, but for the climate.  We are fortunate to have some of the most spectacular weather in the US with mild months requiring nothing more than an open window. In warmer months, we have a ducted evaporative MasterCool system along with various ceiling/room fans.  For the short days of winter, a gas wall-heater along with cotton quilts and linens will provide you the coziness you want.  The home has plenty of windows bringing in natural light with roller sunshades. As guests, you can select natural light, privacy, or the controlled darkness you prefer.   

The fully appointed kitchen allows you to cook meals, the ever important hot cup of Joe and really relax after hiking and exploring all day.  When your days are long, feel free to pack a picnic using supplied baggies, ice-chest and freezer packs. Our kitchen features all the modern conveniences so meal prep and cleanup are a breeze whether for yourself or your group.

Outdoors you'll find various seating options, patio table, gas BBQ, and private fenced yard. This outdoor living space will provide you a great place to hang out, have cocktails, conversation, and a little fire while enjoying the sweeping views of Joshua Tree. We even provide the wood for use in the wood burning stove!

The location makes the Sunset Roost an ideal setting for your upcoming visit. The proximity to Joshua Tree Village will set you in the heart of what's happening both day and night, yet the privacy to relax in peace and quiet.  All the while you can relax with a hot shower and the electronic conveniences we so often seek. Eat at home, pack a lunch or walk down to town for some amazing local cuisine; the choice is yours and we welcome you as guests.    

The Joshua Tree National Park visitor center is only 1/2 mile away and an easy walk.  Sunset Roost is ideally located with the Joshua Tree National Park West Entrance Station just 5 miles to the south.  During the busy season, we suggest access through the North Entrance located just 20 minutes east in Twentynine Palms.  Music venues such as Pappy and Harriets is 12 miles away; those attending Bhakti Fest, Desert Daze or other events held at the Joshua Tree Retreat Center are a four-minute drive towards Yucca Valley. When attending the Joshua Tree Music Festival or ClimbSmart venue, a quick six-mile jaunt will get you there.

The ease of hiking and exploring couldn't be better with the Indian Cove Campground, 49 Palms Oasis Trail, and Desert View Conservation nearby.  Recommendations for Pioneertown, Landers Brew, Giant Rock, Gublers Orchid Nursery, and the Integratron are easy excursions when staying at the Sunset Roost.

Joshua Tree is so Cool

"Susan was awesome- very communicative and easy to work with! The location of the house was so perfect for Desert Daze and walking distance from the main street. Joshua Tree is so cool."

Definitely Recommend

“My wife and I had a very pleasant stay. The house is very clean and had everything as advertised. The location is ideal as well. Close to restaurants, shopping, etc. Joshua Tree National Park is right up the the street as well. The owners are responsive and helpful with a couple questions I had upon arrival. I would definitely recommend this place for a visit.”
