The Clever Rabbit Joshua Tree @ Park West Entrance

Five acres abutting Joshua Tree National Park and less than 1/4 mile from the main entrance. Unobstructed views of mountains in all directions & many Joshua Trees on the property.

The lower section of the property has outdoor chairs where you can escape in darkness to view the stars.

Clever Rabbit has everything you'd expect for your Joshua Tree escape, the ultimate rustic desert chic 1 BR with 2 fold down sofas. A modest but clever house that can accommodate up to four + guests. Featuring a large master + en-suite bath & stunning views from every window! With a second full bathroom off the main hall, it's the ideal setup for a small group/gathering. You'll find the small kitchen fully stocked for cooking up a storm. Cozy up to the wood burning fireplace in the LR or enjoy a fire under the stars.

With unobstructed views of mountains & the park, you'll find the front porch a perfectly serene place to take in some sun, dine at the picnic table or lounge on the hanging chairs.

Wander directly into the park from the Southern section of the property, it's private & allows for easy park access for hiking or just sitting & taking in the beauty of Joshua Tree.

The Clever Rabbit was just precious. Loved the vintage vibes from the exposed wood on the kitchen ceiling & beams to the mini bathroom sink, artwork & murals. Quiet area, plenty of wildlife & very close to Joshua Tree National Park. Surprisingly spacious for a 1 bedriom with 2 bathrooms as well. We absolutely loved our stay!

The property was perfect for my husband and me with our furbaby. Everything was clean and well kept. The stars mid october were astounding, amd proximity to Joshua Tree just down the road and stores 10 minutes away was ideal. We will definitely be back again sometime!

The property is maintained so well that I would prefer staying here than a 5 star hotel. The manager Pascal has been so helpful! When I messed up with the passcode, he was so patient, friendly and assuring in helping me quickly getting it right that made my wife and I feel so comfortable, so safe. The location of this property is just a couple of minutes away from the western entrance of the national park. You cannot get a better location! I am enjoying this place…

Perfect stay for a couple looking for a quick getaway for the weekend. Views from the property were impeccable. Walking trails close by for our puppy. Fireplace was great after a chilly day exploring. Highly recommend this place for your stay
