Here Are a Few Kind Words From Our Previous Guests:

”Kinetic House was excellent! Location was perfect—fabulous elevated views, superb amenities, easy access to Joshua Tree National Park, restaurants, shops. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable, luxurious week in the desert. “ - Joseph

-”From start to finish, this was a great stay. The home is centrally located, spotlessly clean, and a joy to stay in. Inside and outside spaces were designed with relaxation in mind." -Michael

”A really beautiful home in Yucca Valley/Joshua Tree perfect for a desert getaway. The house is clean, spacious, and has an absolutely gorgeous outdoor area with hot tub and cold bath and incredible views of the mountains.” - David

Kinetic art is art from any medium that contains movement perceivable by the viewer or that depends on motion for its effect. The moving parts are generally powered by wind, a motor or the observer. Kinetic art encompasses a wide variety of overlapping techniques and styles as you can see from the various selection of sculptures around the front and back of the house. The metal used in these sculptures were taken from the home's structure and built by the original owner of the house.

✦✦ ACTIVITIES/ATTRACTIONS ✦✦
Visitors come to the High Desert for its unique landscape, culture, and recreational opportunities, as well as for the weather - hot and dry summers and mild winters at our high altitude. Joshua Tree and the communities surrounding the Joshua Tree National Park include Flamingo Heights, Pioneertown, Morongo Valley, Yucca Valley, and Landers. You’ll be close to all the action at Kinetic House. Some of our favorite options available to you:

–Joshua Tree National Park: 800,000 acres of mystical beauty - Joshua Tree National Park is one of the world’s most incredible natural desert treasures. Sweeping, grand in scale and populated by granite monoliths and voluptuous rock and boulder formations. This quiet land, conducive to meditation and roaming, was carved by extremes in climate - wind, rain and an ever-present, relentless sun. Diverse forms of plant life are found everywhere, but none as unique or prevalent as the park’s namesake: the Joshua tree, standing majestically across the vast topography.

–Pioneertown: Step back in time to thus rustic Old West-style village. Wander through the historic buildings, visit unique shops, catch a live music performance at Pappy & Harriets, and experience the Wild West charm.


• The Integratron: New age-y healing destination with a sound bath, originally designed by ufologist George Van Tassel with the goal of reversing the aging process.

The Neighborhood:
Kinetic House is situated in one of the most desirable neighborhoods "on the mesa" in Yucca Valley near the border of Joshua Tree. This perfect central location is only 15 minutes to the picturesque Joshua Tree National Park where you can rock climb over 8,000 established climbing routes, go hiking, horse-riding, join in on a ranger talk, go biking, stargazing or just pack your camera and capture the unique landscape and wildlife that the park has to offer.

Visit Pioneertown, a 1940’s Old West movie set where more than 50 films and TV series were shot. See the frontier stables, saloons, and jails while inside there was ice cream parlors, bowling alleys, and motels. More than 50 films and television shows were filmed at the town in the 1940s and ‘50s and is now home to live music, mock gun fights and delicious food at Pappy and Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace.

Head to the Yucca Valley Town with many small, unique shops filled with antiques and gift items, visit one-of-a-kind restaurants and drop into local cafés to get your latte or espresso with a homemade sandwich or croissant. For more recommendations please take a look at our Visitor's Guide where we have detailed information on local establishments that we love!

Getting Around:
Many roads in the high desert are dirt roads, so please take it slow. While a car is required to get around, a four wheel drive is not, but note that roads will often have ruts, particularly after a rain.

GPS is accurate, however please follow our turn-by-turn directions as some of the other approaches take you down fairly rough roads.

Interaction with Guests:
Our property manager, Homestead Modern, is local and has staff available from 9am-9pm.

Not Worth The Cost We Froze
While we would like to give this property a positive review because there were some nice touches, but when the basics aren’t working like heat and the hot tub it is hard to enjoy the place. We were freezing, and the hot tub was scalding hot. It was my birthday and wanted to get away and do some star watching. The moon played a part but there were too many city lights to see the stars the night we were there. The place wasn’t cheap but we decided to splurge for my birthday. When we arrived, we were disappointed that the place looked a lot nicer online than it was in person. The remodel and furnishings were new and nice, and they were extras touches like a record player, yoga mats and a mixology set so we decided to make the best of it. But when the heat wasn’t working, and it was below 50 outside it was really hard to enjoy this little brick house. We contacted the management company right away. They were responsive but none of there suggestions worked. We went to bed in sweats, socks, beanies and gloves. Someone did come out around 6 pm the following day and diagnosed the heater filters were all filthy within 5 minutes. He cleaned them out and we were good to go. He also said he would speak to the person responsible for the spa. We purchased a thermometer from Home Depot and the water temperature broke it within minutes. We understand stuff happens, but someone should have been out to fix the heat the first night. We notified them at 3:00 pm. We contacted them and a
