Welcome to The Moon Cabin — an Apartment Therapy featured desert retreat with over 450 five-star reviews as a short-term rental, standout design and proven rental appeal. Set on nearly two flat acres at the base of Bunker Mountain, this 1959 Jack Rabbit Homesteader blends mid-century charm with thoughtful modern upgrades. Located just 10 minutes from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park and close to local dining, shops, and art spaces, it’s perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of the high desert. Inside, the one-bedroom, one-bath home features custom details throughout: hand-built raw edge shelving, sliding barn doors, designer lighting, and a freestanding mid-century wood-burning fireplace that anchors the open living area. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, with quartz countertops, floating shelves, and seamless flow into the main living space. The nearly two-acre lot offers privacy, natural beauty, and room to expand. Native flora, boulder formations, and unobstructed views create a stunning backdrop for outdoor living. A bocce court adds a fun and unique touch for guests or gatherings. The Moon Cabin has a strong track record and future potential—whether you're looking for a personal escape, a creative live/work home, or a part-time rental property with character and income potential.

No weekly rateNo published rate within 7 days of this date.ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
No earlier records were returned by our current sources. This does not mean the home has never sold.
