Other things to note
Desert Landscape
The desert is stunning but rugged. We recommend wearing shoes outdoors, as the terrain can be uneven. This keeps you safe while exploring and lets you fully enjoy the natural beauty around Wanderlust.

Quiet Neighborhood
Wanderlust is tucked in a peaceful desert community where stillness and stargazing are part of the magic. To help preserve that quiet, please observe quiet hours from 10 PM to 8 AM.

No Pets
We truly love animals, but Wanderlust is not a pet-friendly property. This helps us keep the home allergy-friendly and extra comfortable for all guests.

Seasonal Touches
Our soaking tubs are available during warmer months and may be closed in winter due to weather conditions. We appreciate your understanding as we ensure they’re safe and enjoyable for your stay.

Neighborhood highlights

The property is located just outside of Twentynine Palms in an area called Wonder Valley. Wonder Valley's history dates back to the early 20th century, when the government encouraged homesteading in the area. This initiative led to the establishment of numerous small cabins and homes, many of which remain scattered across the desert, offering a glimpse into the past. The harsh conditions and isolation required a rugged spirit, and those who settled here were true pioneers. Today, some of these original homesteads have been restored and repurposed, adding a historical charm to the valley.

Breathtaking 360-degree views of the desert mountains, this property offers an ideal setting for stargazing and celebrating the beauty of the desert landscape.
