Kit Fox Cabin is an original, restored 1956 desert home on four private acres with panoramic views across the Mojave Desert in Twentynine Palms, just 15 minutes from both Joshua Tree National Park entrances. Large windows frame the surrounding desert and fill the home with natural light. This one-bedroom, one-bath home sleeps up to four with a king bed and queen sleeper sofa. Enjoy a wood-burning fireplace, private outdoor shower, fire pit, dark desert skies, and no TV by design.
The space
Originally built in 1956, Kit Fox Cabin was restored with the goal of preserving what made it special. Rather than erase its history, we chose to preserve it, blending its character with modern comforts.
The original tongue-and-groove wood ceiling and wood-burning fireplace remain at the heart of the home, complemented by vintage furnishings, artwork, handcrafted pieces, and select antiques that are more than 100 years old.
The home features one private bedroom with a king bed and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room that comfortably accommodates two additional guests. The home includes one full bathroom, accessed through the bedroom.
A fully equipped kitchen, indoor and outdoor dining, heating and air conditioning, high-speed WiFi, books, and games make it easy to settle in, whether you're staying for a weekend or an extended stay.
Set on four private acres, the property invites you to experience a quieter side of the Mojave Desert. Start your morning with coffee on the front patio as the desert comes to life, dine outdoors on the back patio beneath open desert skies, gather around the fire pit, play a game of horseshoes, or rinse off in the private hot-and-cold outdoor shower after a day of exploring. Watch for hummingbirds, quail, and other native desert wildlife visiting the waterhole and feeders, then settle into a lounger beneath some of Southern California's darkest skies.
Whether you're here to explore Joshua Tree National Park or simply enjoy a few quiet days away, we hope you'll experience a different pace of the Mojave Desert.
Guest access
Guests have the entire cabin and property to themselves during their stay. You’re welcome to enjoy the home, outdoor spaces, and walk the property while being mindful of the cacti, desert plants, and wildlife that call this place home.
There is a garage and storage container located inside the fenced area behind the cabin. These are locked, used for owner storage, and not available for guest use.
Other things to note
A detailed guest guide will be provided before your stay and is also available inside the cabin. It includes everything you need to know about the home, along with local recommendations, area information, and helpful tips to make your stay as comfortable as possible. If you have any questions before or during your visit, we're always happy to help.
