The Premier Luxury
Wellness Retreat Venue
in Joshua Tree

Cactus Moon was made for this.

Every inch of this property was shaped around what retreat leaders actually need — not as an afterthought, but as the founding intention.

  • A decade in the making — Cactus Moon has spent ten years welcoming retreat leaders, refining every detail along the way. Nothing here is generic; it's been shaped by what actually works for groups doing real transformational work.

  • Room to roam — 2.5 acres of high-desert landscape among desert oak, piñon, and juniper, with unobstructed views of San Gorgonio Mountain and the Sawtooth Wilderness. Space to gather, space to wander, space to breathe.

  • Held by someone who gets it — Cactus Moon was founded by a licensed clinical psychologist who understands, professionally and personally, what it takes to hold space for deep work. That perspective shapes everything here — from the layout to the way we support you.

  • Just beyond the gate — Joshua Tree National Park and the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve are right up the road, with Pioneertown just beyond. Hikes, sunrise moments, and quiet wandering are easy to weave into your retreat.

  • Your retreat, fully supported — From planning guidance to a trusted network of local chefs and caterers, we partner with you to bring your vision to life — not just hand you the keys.

  • A place that holds its own energy — High-desert silence, big sky, and a landscape that's drawn people seeking stillness and connection for generations. Guests often say they feel different the moment they arrive.

  • A true retreat partnership — A decade of experience building a sanctuary where that work can happen. We're not just renting you a property; we're partnering with you. Hands-on planning support, a dedicated local manager, a trusted network of chefs and vendors, and a genuine investment in seeing your retreat succeed.

  • Accommodations - 16 overnight guests +50 Daytime guests and visitors

  • Two dedicated practice spaces — A fully equipped detached indoor yoga studio with props and an outdoor yoga and ritual space with stunning views of Mt Gorgogonio and the San Bernandino Mountainsopen to the desert sky, so your work can move between the contained and the vast.

  • The whole sanctuary, yours alone — Up to 16 overnight guests, complete privacy, no strangers wandering through. The kind of held container that real transformation requires.

  • Amenities that restore — Saltwater pool, hot soak, cold plunge tub, cedar wood outdoor shower, a labyrinth for walking meditation, and a firepit — all on 2.5 acres of living desert.

  • Joshua Tree at your doorstep — Sunrise hikes, park excursions, and the ineffable experience of that landscape are woven naturally into whatever you're creating here.

  • The land itself — Joshua Tree is long held as sacred by Indigenous peoples, such as the Serrano, Chemehuevi, and Cahuilla tribes. This is recognized by those who've practiced here for decades. You just feel it.

Whether you're leading a yoga immersion, a somatic healing retreat, a creative intensive, a gathering with family and friends, or a corporate wellness gathering — Cactus Moon offers the setting, the support, and the soul to make it unforgettable.
