The Filmmakers House is a haven for dreamers to reset, reflect, and create in a desert stay environment. It's 20 mins from Joshua Tree National Park and Pioneertown. It's perfect for couples & creative teams. Although located on a remote four acres, the House is less than a mile from the "downtown" of Flamingo Heights – one of the hottest up-and-coming areas in the High Desert. You can bask in the tranquility and deck views with a glass of wine OR take a stroll to La Copine (our 4-star, New York Times-reviewed restaurant), Moon Wind Trading (the boho/desert chic clothing store) and Giant Rock Meeting Room (a pizza and wine bar with live music most weekends).

BED & BATH

The House is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home, each room controlled by its own heating and A/C unit. It can comfortably accommodate 4 people in the 2 queen beds and 1 additional memory-foam sofa pulls out into a full bed in the living room, if needed, for a child or extra friend.

It has one bathroom with a shower/bathtub combo, plenty of drawers, and lots counter space.

KITCHEN & DINING

The kitchen is fully stocked. It has a complete set of pots and pans, baking sheets, bowls, knife set, gas stove, French-door fridge, and even a pasta maker. Because this a main residence and not a second home, coffee is available, along with spices, oil, and baking staples. The water in the house is filtered by reverse osmosis and softened with a Rainsoft water system. The dining table comfortably seats 4 and can be extended for larger meals and two more seats.

Outside on the patio, a Weber 3-burner propane grill and a small table are waiting for al fresco dining.

OFFICE & LIVING SPACES

The House features a 65" 4K TV with upgraded sound system and offers premium streaming.

The House is built for remote work or schooling in mind and has 2 desks/workspaces. There's an office area beside the living room area. The other is workspace doubles as a vanity space with a bench, tucked away for privacy in a bedroom.

The House internet is Starlink – the fastest internet available in the high desert – and at 130+ mpbs it's comparable to city speeds.

READING NOOK

Flip through David Lynch's "Catching the Big Fish" while taking a gander at Trent Harris' "The Beaver Trilogy." The reading nook has a bookshelf full of creative books – fiction, non-fiction, motivational and inspirational, theoretical film theory and practical film production. It's next to the vintage 50's TV and VCR.

OUTDOOR SPACES

Be sure to enjoy incredible views from the front deck during your stay!

The deck lines the full length of the house and overlooks an expansive view of the desert. (Flamingo Heights is on a hill.) There is an outdoor love seat and chairs, perfect for lounging with a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night. Yoga & exercise mats & a body roller are provided so you can stretch out in the morning or after a hike in one of the many surrounding wilderness areas.

The backyard patio area is fenced and private. There is a table for outside dining for 4. The hot tub has unobstructed views of the night sky, as so do the two hammocks (if you'd prefer to stay dry).

NEIGHBORHOOD

This is a dirt-road, rural area that is accessible by any vehicle. There are a few grocery markets and a dollar store so in a pinch you don't have to drive the 10 mins into town.
