Calico Landing, Luxury Pool + Spa Retreat

Welcome to Calico Landing, a serene hillside retreat in Yucca Valley, just minutes from Joshua Tree National Park. This modern desert escape opens to wide open skies, golden light and quiet, star filled nights. Spend your days floating in the pool, relaxing in the hot spa and taking in the panoramic views. Inside, warm modern design, open concept living and spa style bathrooms create a calming space to slow down, recharge and enjoy the unique beauty of the high desert

Calico Landing is a private desert sanctuary set on two acres, surrounded by sculptural Ocotillos, tall Yuccas and iconic Joshua Trees. More than two hundred fifty native plants shape a living landscape where quail, owls and chipmunks move quietly through this peaceful corner of the high desert.

Inside, floor to ceiling glass brings the outside in, connecting curated interiors with wide open sky and rolling terrain. The living room blends modern desert style with layered textures, custom pieces and hand selected art, creating a warm and refined atmosphere that encourages slow mornings and gentle evenings.

Step onto the covered patio and gather around the fire pit as constellations rise overhead. Wander to the thirty foot heated pool and spa set among natural stone and native cactus gardens. Lounge chairs and umbrellas invite long afternoons by the water. The spa is complimentary upon request, and the pool can be heated for a nightly fee.

The primary suite is designed for deep rest, featuring a California King DreamCloud hybrid mattress, soft drapery and calming desert views. Its spa style bathroom includes a soaking tub and a teak floored rain shower for end of day renewal.

The second bedroom offers a hand painted desert mural and a Canyon Arched Canopy Bed with a plush queen memory foam mattress. A nearby bathroom with a terrazzo rain shower brings a gentle start to each morning.

The fully equipped kitchen makes cooking easy, with an electric range, dishwasher, retro style Galanz refrigerator, wine fridge and a coffee station with Nespresso and Chemex. A glass pantry stores yoga mats, games and outdoor gear to elevate every stay.

Enjoy sunrise coffee with mountain views. Float in the pool beneath endless blue. Watch the desert turn gold at sunset, then settle by the fire pit under a sky full of stars. At Calico Landing, every moment invites rest, clarity and a deeper connection to the quiet beauty of the desert

Guests have full and private access to the entire home and property, including the pool, spa, outdoor lounge areas and all interior spaces. You are welcome to explore the grounds at your own pace and enjoy complete privacy throughout your stay.

Please note that the first gate is reserved for maintenance access and is not available for guest use

To preserve the tranquility of the area, quiet hours begin at ten p.m. out of respect for our neighbors.

Exceptional home close to Joshua Tree NP

Calico landing was a wonderful location to stay for our family's visit to Joshua Tree National Park. The home was completely stocked, including games our children loved to play. Being able to spend some time in the hot tub and watch the stars at night added to the overall experience of our desert vacation. Our kids enjoyed being able to swim a little one of the afternoons as well. The hosts were very helpful with wonderful communication, streamlining the entire process. We could not have picked a better location for visiting Joshua Tree!

Perfect desert family retreat!

We couldn’t have been happier with our stay. The house was so well curated and peaceful and the communication with the hosts was so easy and straight forward.As someone who has sensitivities to scents, I really appreciated their use of natural cleaning products, detergents and pool chemicals.Our family had such a relaxing and fun stay and it was the ideal place to enjoy a starry night in the hot tub, and a quick ride into town or to Joshua Tree National Park for an adventure!

Wonderful long weekend getaway

Let me start by saying I'm always weary of house rentals because it never quite matches up what you see online. This was NOT the case when staying at Calico landing. The online images and description are completely accurate in the best way possible. The house was very cute, clean, and incredibly well-stocked with everything you need (besides groceries) for a fun and relaxing weekend. The host was kind enough to let us drop our bags and food off early before exploring Joshua Tree, and they were quick to respond throughout the weekend. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Home away from home in the desert

We felt very comfortable staying in this beautiful house. It was very clean and well cared for. We enjoyed using the hot tub and fire pit. Perfect for a night of star gazing! We hiked the High View Trail and West Loop at the nearby trail head. Amazing mountain views! Kristian was very attentive and helpful whenever we had any questions.

Winter getaway in Yucca Valley

We really enjoyed our stay. The home is very nicely appointed and furnished. Everything is up to date and comfortable. We were there on a few cold partially rainy days. The hot tub was fantastic. The weather was too cold to use the pool, but also the pool wasn't heated unless you paid extra. It was a short drive to several fun places to eat and hang out, and of course, it was very easy to drive into Joshua Tree National Park.

Loved this place

Loved this house, is brand new and everything is as described. Everything is new and it has everything that you can think of to be comfortable. I will say I expected the area to be more deserted but it has quite a bit of neighbors, but even with the neighbors the area is extremely quiet. I also have to comment on the owners/hostess they were very attentive and made our stay even more enjoyable, they are very responsive and I appreciated that.
