Mojave Ghost

High Desert, California

A quiet adobe hideaway for slow mornings and wide open skies

Mojave Ghost sits alone on five acres of open desert, close enough to town for coffee and far enough for real quiet.

Come slow down for a while

We built Mojave Ghost around thick adobe walls, wood floors, and windows placed for sunrise. There's no television in the living room on purpose. Instead there's a deck for morning coffee, a fire pit for the evening chill, and a small plunge pool that stays cool straight through August. Most guests come to hike Joshua Tree during the day and do very little else once the sun goes down. That's exactly how we like it.

What you'll find here

Three private acres, one adobe casita, and everything laid out for two to six guests who came to unwind.

Plunge Pool & Fire Pit

A cool dip after a hot hike, then a fire once the temperature drops and the stars come out.

Two Quiet Bedrooms

Thick walls keep the heat out and the noise down. Linen sheets, blackout curtains, real quiet.

Outdoor Shower & Garden

Native sage, ocotillo, and barrel cactus surround a stone shower built for rinsing off trail dust.

"We came for the hiking and stayed on the deck instead. The pool was perfect after a hot day at the park, and we watched the sunset from the fire pit every single night. Already planning our next trip back."
