Bedrock Bungalow · Star Dome, Pool, Hot Tub, Views

Summary:

Climb the wooden steps after dinner and the clear stargazing dome at the top of the hill opens 360-degree mountain views over five private Yucca Valley acres. Below it, Bedrock Bungalow sits among boulders on its own hilltop, with an in-ground pool for the afternoon, a hot tub kept heated for dusk and a fire pit for the hours in between. Big windows frame the town below. Two king bedrooms, two baths. Bring a blanket up the hill.



The Space:

Bedrock Bungalow is a cozy home perched on a hilltop and surrounded by boulders, on five private acres in a quiet, secluded spot in Yucca Valley. Inside, a wood-slat ceiling, rattan pendants and wide picture windows keep the rooms warm and full of light, with views over the town below. Out back are an in-ground pool and a hot tub, and at the very top of the hill a clear stargazing dome takes in 360-degree mountain views. Two bedrooms, each with a king bed, and two bathrooms make it an easy fit for couples or a small group who want privacy, views and dark skies. Save some energy for the climb to the dome after dinner.

-Outdoor Amenities-

Mornings are bright on the pool deck, where loungers and umbrellas look out over the boulders and the hills. Swim, read, swim again. When the light starts to turn, move to the hot tub on the patio, kept heated and set just below the dome, and fire up the BBQ for dinner.



After dark, the fire pit seating comes into its own, with the dome lit up on the hill above. Follow the wooden steps up and settle onto the loungers inside the clear dome, where the views run 360 degrees around the mountains and the stars fill in overhead.



-Living Area-

A wood-slat ceiling and a wide picture window give the living room its view of the hills, while rattan pendants, woven chairs and a sofa make it an easy place to gather. Pull a book or a game from the shelves of pottery and books, or put a movie on the smart TV. Split-system heating and cooling keeps it comfortable whatever the season.



-Kitchen and Dining-

The fully equipped kitchen has a window over the counter that looks toward the hills, so even doing the dishes comes with a view. Cook breakfast in and eat at the dining table beside the living room, or grill outside on the BBQ and carry the plates to the patio.



-Bedrooms and Bathrooms-

The first bedroom pairs a king bed and arched headboard with a sliding door out to the boulders and a desk by the window, so you can step outside with your first coffee. The second bedroom has its own king bed, rust-toned bedding and pendant lights.

Both bathrooms have marble showers, a clean finish after a long day in the sun.

-Wildlife & Safety-

The desert landscape is teeming with wildlife and natural beauty, offering a unique connection to nature, but it's important to be mindful of the creatures and plants that call this area home. Guests may encounter a variety of wildlife during their stay, and while direct encounters with dangerous animals like coyotes, snakes, scorpions, bobcats, mountain lions and other desert dwellers are rare, it is important to be aware of your surroundings and to keep a safe distance from these creatures when spotted. Additionally, the desert is dotted with sharp cacti and other spiky plants. For your safety, always supervise children, pets, ESAs, and service animals while outdoors. Dogs should remain on a leash at all times and be watched closely while outdoors, as they can wander into potentially unsafe situations with wildlife or plants. By booking this property, guests acknowledge the potential for wildlife encounters and assume responsibility for their safety and the safety of their group. By respecting the local environment and staying aware, you can fully enjoy the magic of the desert.

For your security, there are exterior cameras on the property, which monitor vehicles and occupancy. There are no cameras inside the home or facing any private areas, including the pool and hot tub areas.
