Situated at 4,400 feet and set within a vast and peaceful tract of over 20 acres of high desert, this property in Pioneertown is a refuge of serenity and spectacular natural beauty that makes a unique backdrop for special events. Located in a largely undiscovered gem called Pipes Canyon Valley, you’re just a stone’s throw from historic Pioneertown at the foothills of the Big Bear mountains adjoining over thirty thousand acres of nature conservancy land. 

Guests can customize the look and feel of their events from the many options and ways to use the property, with ample room for outdoor receptions and dancing, food trucks and catering, and plenty of tranquil escapes around the property to create peaceful and private moments of restorative relaxation and exploration.  Yoga retreats are tailored to your needs, including asana and pranayama classes, walking meditations, guided nature hikes, lodgings and gourmet meals.

Robin Maxwell privately coaches aspiring and established writers for weekend or week-long getaways in a serene and inspiring high desert setting.

The charming adobe home is perfectly suited to the desert environment and is homey and comfortable with room for up to five overnight guests. The cozy layout includes a comfy living area and dining space that adjoins a fully equipped kitchen and one double bedroom. There’s also a screened in porch that is the go-to spot for sleeping al fresco (weather permitting).

The property is solar and wind powered with all of the modcons for comfort year round and shares the property with the owner’s home nearby without sacrificing privacy.

The gardens and surrounding landscape have been lovingly maintained as an all natural oasis with native plants and cactus gardens, a fabulous labyrinth and a meditation teepee.

The property is also part of a wildlife sanctuary and guests are regularly treated to myriad sightings of dozens of bird species, coyotes, bobcats, jackrabbits and more as well as dark skies for epic star gazing.
