    Original homestead cabinRetro charmModern conveniencesGrounds feature a spaStriking joshua tree escapeOpen and inviting flowDramatic desert vistas
    Welcome to Los Arcos, a striking Joshua Tree escape set in the heart of Wonder Valley—one of the most beautiful rural communities in the High Desert, known for its quiet solitude and some of the darkest skies in the Joshua Tree area. Here, stargazing is not just an occasional treat, but a nightly spectacle. This colonial Spanish ranch–inspired estate, with a playful 1950’s twist and its own Wild West saloon, rests on 5 private acres framed by mature trees and dramatic desert vistas. The property offers a rare combination of privacy, character, and convenience, located just 15 minutes from the eastern entrance of Joshua Tree National Park and downtown Twentynine Palms. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, Los Arcos is being sold fully furnished and turn-key, ready to continue its legacy as a beloved desert retreat—or to become your own private oasis in the High Desert. Inside, the home is surprisingly spacious, with an open and inviting flow designed for comfort and entertaining. The updated kitchen blends retro charm with modern conveniences, while the bathrooms have been refreshed with thoughtful finishes that honor the home’s style. Multiple living areas provide room to gather or retreat in peace, capturing the easy rhythm of desert life. Outdoors, Los Arcos invites you to linger. The grounds feature a spa, cowboy tub, outdoor shower, firepit, and hammocks for slow afternoons. Multiple shaded seating areas, framed by the property’s beautiful arches, offer cool respite from the sun. The original homestead cabin adds a layer of history and charm, while the attached two-car garage provides function and storage. And with a private well, you can enjoy desert living without water bills. Whether you’re seeking a primary residence, a second home, or a proven short-term rental, Los Arcos offers a magical setting that’s as versatile as it is unforgettable.
