Come to Wonder Valley Hot Springs, only a 15 minute drive from Joshua Tree National Park, for the ultimate peaceful and restorative retreat. This booking is for our Tamarisk House, which is the largest on the property. It has four bedrooms, four full bathrooms and sleeps a total of 8 people in beds across 7 beds (6 full+1 king). This house also has a 400sf yoga room, a large prep kitchen, large dining room, and three private hot springs soaking tubs. With high-speed WIFI, it's laptop friendly
Wonder Valley Hot Springs is a 20 acre property with multiple homes, each with their own private stone soaking tub. You may see workers and/or other guests walking around on the land but your house will be completely private.
This house has four bedrooms and four full baths:
-Master Bedroom: King bed with private granite stone soaking tub in the room plus en suite full bathroom with rain shower
-2nd Bedroom: 2 Full Beds
-3rd Bedroom: Full over Full Bunk Bed
-4th Bedroom: 2 Full Beds *Please note this bedroom is only accessible from the outside of the house so guests will need to walk outside about 15-20 feet and then walk back inside the house to use the restroom or use a restroom accessible from the outside of the house on the other side of the house.
Please enter the number of guests you plan on bringing. The pricing varies by number of guests and includes the first 2 guests. The house can be booked for 8 guests and additional guests require permission and approval.
The house also has two outside private stone soaking tubs that can be filled with water from our mineral rich hot springs and one inside the master bedroom.
The large prep kitchen is equipped with pots, pans & utensils for cooking and serving (no microwave, toaster, blender or spices). We recommend bringing groceries as there are only a few restaurants nearby and limited grocery store options in the vicinity.
We have the best wifi available in the area. Please note that our location is fairly remote and this wifi is slower than what is available in most towns and cities. We do have reliable cell service.
We do not have any TVs or cable.
All linens and decor are organic, sustainably sourced and eco-friendly whenever possible and all decor is vegan and cruelty-free, we use no animal products on the property.
All of our linens are organic or microfiber, and they get stained easily and bleach destroys them. What we do to be environmentally conscious is we wash them and then tie dye with natural indigo dye. So celebrate the imperfections.
Entrance is located on a dirt road less than 1/2 mile from paved road.
We are pet friendly but do require an additional $40 fee per pet, per night and pets must be disclosed in request to book message. Pets are not allowed on the bed or furniture. Please bring a dog bed or blanket. Pets are not allowed to be left unattended except in a crate. As we are a property where guests come for peace and quiet, we ask that you not bring dogs that will bark.
Because we are entirely off the water grid and all of our water comes from the hot springs, there may be the equivalent of “low-tide” for an hour or two when the pressure gets very low to none on the indoor showers before it’s back to normal. This might mean a 1-2 hour wait. This may effect bathroom, shower, kitchen and tubs.
When it’s cold out, it may also take 15-20 minutes for the pipes to drain and the hot water to flow from the hot springs to take a hot shower.
The rock tubs are tuned in and get hot pretty fast year round.
