Joshua Tree is typically 10-12 degrees cooler than low desert areas such as Palm Springs and Indio. Our busiest seasons are Spring and Fall where temperatures are mild and typically range between 70-80 degrees. During the winter, it is not uncommon to see snow as we are located in the southern mountain area of Joshua Tree. The Summer months offer beautiful warm nights which allow for some of the best star gazing of the year. 


We accept payments through Square, Zelle, wire transfer, Venmo as well as online payments via our website. Credit Card payments are subject to a 3.3% process fee. Please note: All deposits and payments are non-refundable. To reach our online payment portal please click here.
