About this property
WKNDR Starside ܍ Closest to Park Entrance, Stars, Private
Desert Solitude Meets Modern Comfort
Escape to WKNDR Starside, the closest Airbnb to the Joshua Tree National Park north entrance. Stargaze from oversized hammocks, photograph the Milky Way, and enjoy fireside evenings in your own private desert oasis. Located just 2 miles from downtown 29 Palms, you'll have easy access to shops and restaurants while savoring complete tranquility.
Designed for relaxation and adventure, this airy, modern retreat is the perfect basecamp for hiking, cycling, climbing, and running. Nestled on a private road, the home offers expansive views of the park, mountains, and valley. A detached casita just steps away serves as a versatile space for a third bedroom, dining area, or private office.
Top Highlights:
Prime Location: Walk into Joshua Tree National Park's backcountry or reach the main entrance in less than 5 minutes.
Unmatched Stargazing: Dark skies, oversized hammocks, and the Sky's The Limit Observatory less than a mile away.
Ultimate Privacy: No homes between the property and the park entrance, plus serene, quiet surroundings on a private road.
Standout Amenities:
Oversized Hammocks
Fire Pit & Gas Grill
Outdoor Dining & Shaded Patios

About the host
Hosted by Hilary Dell
Howdy! I'm Hilary. I'm a full time Airbnb host and have hiked every trail in Joshua Tree National Park. I hope to share my love of the desert with guests. I love providing recommendations. Check out our blog for Joshua Tree www.wkndr.life
Why they chose this property
As one of our guests put it, “Amazing spot if seclusion, privacy and natural, otherworldly beauty is what you seek. On a clear night, the sky unveils everything it has to offer. The kitchen is great, the beds are comfy and the fire pit is exactly where you need to be. Thoughtful, minimalistic design elements add to the uniqueness.”
What makes this property unique
As another guest said, "Wow. Staying at this beautiful property is almost like living in Joshua Tree National Park, but with all the comforts of home, and then some! Hilary put thought into making this property a comfort for her guests. The kitchen had the greatest variety of cookware that I've experienced in my Airbnb experience. The large availability of outlets (all types - USB & traditional) was unexpected and utilized! The high quality hammocks were great for stargazing and strong air conditioning much appreciated. 5 out of 5 stars *****!
