Summary:
Welcome to Boulders Gate by The Cohost Company. Boulders Gate is a fully reimagined luxury desert retreat set on private acreage directly bordering Joshua Tree National Park. Named for the surrounding mountains of boulders, it feels like a gateway into another world - quiet, expansive, and deeply restorative. Here, mornings unfold in stillness, light pours through vast windows, and every moment invites reflection, connection, and a sense of something greater.
The Space:
Designed by Wolfgang Pichler Design, this home blends clean, modern architecture with warm, grounding materials - natural wood, stone, and handcrafted zellige tile. The aesthetic is fresh yet soulful, where minimal lines meet organic texture. Floor-to-ceiling windows soar throughout, filling the home with ever-changing desert light and framing uninterrupted views of boulders, sky, and valley below.
The property is thoughtfully laid out as a Main House and a separate Casita. The Main House features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with expansive living spaces, a fully equipped kitchen, and dining areas designed for gathering. Just a short walk away, the Casita offers two additional bedrooms and two bathrooms, its own kitchen, as well as dedicated laundry, gym, and indoor sauna space through separate outdoor entrances.
Throughout, the home and property feel expansive yet intimate, offering both open areas for connection and quiet corners for reflection - ideal for slowing down, reconnecting, and being fully present.

Lounge chairs invite long, sun-soaked afternoons, while a fire pit with plush outdoor seating creates a natural gathering place as the desert cools.
A rooftop deck on the Main House elevates the experience even further, offering 360-degree views that stretch endlessly across the desert and mountains. With its own fire pit and seating, it becomes a front-row seat to golden hour and a stargazing sanctuary once night falls.
