MARS HAUS - Heated Pool & Outdoor Movie Projector

Houston, we’ve landed on Mars! Welcome to our out-of-this-world 2-bedroom tiny home — a stylish escape that feels light years away without leaving Earth. Perfect for couples or small groups, enjoy your private pool, putting green, outdoor movie screen with projector, large yard, hot tub, cowboy tub, two fire pits, and hammock chairs for stargazing.

Just 18 mins to Joshua Tree National Park’s west entrance, 9 mins to downtown JT, and 8 mins to Walmart. Super remote, yet close enough!

The space
The Ultimate Outdoor Space

Prepare to be amazed by your private, fully-fenced backyard retreat. We've created a luxurious space perfect for enjoying the sunny days and even more incredible desert nights!

New In-Ground Pool: Dive into the brand-new, in-ground pool for a refreshing dip, or request to have it heated for a cozy night swim! The pool goes up to 5 feet deep but also includes a nice sized "lounge step" that's great for tanning or just chilling out while you stream your favorite show directly in front of the pool on the screen!

Outdoor Movie Nights: Enhance your evening with an unforgettable viewing experience! Grab a spot on the lounge chairs or a floatie in the pool and enjoy your favorite films on the large outdoor projector screen. You can log in to your own streaming accounts to access all your favorites!

Star-Gazing Comfort: The backyard also includes a fire pit and sectional where you can cozy up, while the front yard also has a traditional desert cowboy tub, and a pergola with hanging hammock chairs in front of another fire pit for comfortable, classic Joshua Tree stargazing under the ambient string lights.

Jacuzzi: Slip into the perfectly heated Jacuzzi to soak away the day's adventures and chill under the stars!

☆☆ BATHROOMS ☆☆
There is one full size bathroom complete with plush bath linen, towels for the spa, hairdryer and first aid kit

Whether you’re in need of an afternoon nap after a long day of exploration and space travel or simply a spot to hang out with friends or family, the living room is the perfect place.

☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆
Step outside and into your own desert oasis. The entire yard is fenced in, not only for your privacy, but also so your furry friends can safely explore! Feel free to shut the front gate to fully enclose the yard.

The best part about coming to Joshua Tree is being able to enjoy the outdoors and we think the yard will do just that. The neighborhood is pretty quiet and you most likely won’t even see or hear anyone!

Being that we are in the desert there also may be cactus plants in the yard, so if your dog is extra curious, keep an eye on them so they don’t get pricks in their paws or nose!

Great property, would stay again. Only slight complaint is that the pictures of the backyard don't show that neighbors can see into the backyard on either side. It's not a private backyard.

Thoroughly enjoyed this adorable- space adventure home. I wish I brought the family. It has so many great aspects to it. We enjoyed the spa, the swings, the deck. The kitchen is fabulous. The large sliding doors gave us a great view of the patio. We loved it. It was about 10 minutes from the national Park entrance.

Birthday Getaway!

This tiny home was anything but tiny when it came to charm and comfort! Came out for a couples’ birthday getaway and loved every minute. The space is super roomy and decorated with the cutest touches. The cowboy pool and hot tub were major highlights in the cute backyard. We spent hours in the hammocks by the fire pit just soaking in the desert vibes. Quick drive to Joshua Tree or cool modern spots if you’re feeling social. And shoutout to Sara! The host with the most! Friendly, fast to respond, and just all around awesome. We’ll definitely be back!

An Out of This World Experience

The Mars House offered a wonderfully accommodating range of amenities that made us feel like valued guests. This spacious two bedroom, one bath retreat features an artistic space-themed interior with polished floors, whimsical neon lighting, and broad sliding glass windows looking out over the serene Joshua Tree Desert. My partner and I came to the house for his birthday, and we were totally blown away. The hot tub's warmth felt inviting after a long day exploring the trails and boulders of the national park, and we were entranced by the vast field of stars in the night sky later in the evening. There were a great selection of restaurants in the area within just a 15 minute drive. Although we didn't make use of the fire pit or the hammocks, it was cool to know they were available for us during our stay. Overall we were pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem in the desert, and we would love to return sometime soon!

Desert dream

I love the high desert. Visiting Joshua Tree has always been on my travel destination list. Staying at the Mars house made it an even better experience. After a long day in the park, coming back to this little oasis was perfect. All the furniture is very comfortable. The atmosphere is calm and cozy. Sitting out under the stars with a full moon shining was amazing. If it had been warmer during our visit we would have used the cowboy pool! This "tiny home" is not tiny at all. It is very open and airy. Love that the entire side of the main living space is sliding glass doors! We enjoyed our breakfast outside while the sun was rising. So beautiful. We would definitely stay here again. The only thing missing is an outdoor grill.
