Morning Dove By Homestead Modern

Summary:
Welcome to Morning Dove, an architectural masterpiece set on 20 pristine acres at the edge of Joshua Tree National Park. Designed with sustainability and elegance in mind, this unique rammed earth home blends luxury with the raw beauty of the desert. Experience a seamless connection to nature while enjoying high-end amenities and curated interiors.

The Space:
Morning Dove offers a one-of-a-kind desert retreat with refined design and unmatched comfort. Whether stargazing from one of the private patios, unwinding in a NativeStone bathtub, or gathering around the wood-burning fireplace, every moment is elevated.

INSPIRATION & RAMMED EARTH
During a soul-searching road trip to the Joshua Tree area, the owners stayed a few nights at the 29 Palms Inn and decided to build something extraordinary in the area. It was important to them to be connected to the outside at all times in the house, while also being protected from the extreme elements and to build a healthy environment that fosters a connection to the Mojave.

Rammed earth is an ancient construction method seen in Europe, New Zealand, Africa and drier climates and uses a combination of native materials, a binding agent and colorant to mix into the material by batch. For Morning Dove, the owners took the soil from this property, which is mostly granite, screened it to get the consistency they wanted and mixed it with specific colored mortars. The mixture is poured into forms and compacted by a tamper. Once the first layer was completed, the forms were moved, and the process was repeated. This type of sustainable design does not exist anywhere in the California high-desert.

Guest Access:
You will have the entire house and property to yourself. Only registered guests are allowed, unless specifically agreed upon during the booking process. While we encourage taking walks on our property please do not wander into our neighbor's backyards in the surrounding area as you will be trespassing on private property.

Also note, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO USE OF OFF HIGHWAY VEHICLES (OHV) IN THIS AREA.

The Neighborhood:
With its storied history, beautiful landscapes, and walkable downtown, Twentynine Palms is your perfect home base for exploring Joshua Tree National Park.  Twentynine Palms is experiencing a renaissance, with new shops, bars, and restaurants opening every day.  Only 15 mins east of the town of Joshua Tree, you’ll find the park’s less congested north entrance along with the Joshua Tree Cultural Center and a main street vibe that is absent throughout the rest of our sprawling desert communities.

This is a remote location down dirt roads, so please take it slow. While a car is required to get around, a four wheel drive car is not, but note that roads will often have ruts, particularly after a rain.
