Minimalist desert retreat
Night Moves is a 4 bed 3 bath house in the desirable Joshua Tree Highlands area with epic 100 mile views. The house sits on an elevated, ecologically diverse 5-acre lot that backs up to boulders and mountains, adjacent to the National Park. The minimal aesthetic and large windows throughout integrate the house into its natural setting, drawing ones attention outside, to the expansive desert landscape and shifting light. The house offers many areas to hang out solo or in a group.
Welcome to Night Moves Joshua Tree!

4 Car Maximum - We are trying to preserve and restore the fragile desert landscape at Night Moves which means our driveway space is limited. For this reason guest groups must have a maximum of four (4) vehicles unless prior arrangements are made with us in advance.
The gate on the driveway is sometimes locked when guests arrive. The code for it is in the welcome letter. You are welcome to lock it during your stay or just leave it open.
Additionally we have outdoor security cameras to monitor exterior areas around Night Moves including the driveway, patio and outdoor areas.

Comfortable, stylish home in a great location!
This thoughtfully minimalist property was perfect for our friend-group getaway. We really appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and inviting spaces for dining and socializing. Bedrooms and bathrooms were stylish and comfortable. And you can’t beat the location: remote while also being close to both the park and town. The host was very communicative and obviously has put a lot thought into what guests will need. We had a fantastic time and look forward to returning in the future!

Great location, amenities, and host!
The property is in a great semi-secluded location which is perfect if you want to unplug from devices and city-life. You're not too far from town in case you need to pick up anything which is convenient.
All listed amenities were in good working condition, and everything was clean and tidy. We didn't have to reach out to the host during our stay to report any issues with the property.
The host was very attentive, communicative, and overall great! Patty checked-in on us on our arrival date to ensure that we got in without issues which was very considerate given that finding the property does require driving on unpaved roads for a short stretch.
Our group highly recommends Night Moves!
