Earth House in Joshua Tree has one of the most beautiful interiors I have come across. It is perfect for those looking to disconnect with the world and get lost in nature. If you are a conscious traveler and look for airbnbs that promote sustainable living this is the place for you. 

The house has been renovated using natural materials including earthen plasters, linen bedding, hand built furniture as well as thrifted and vintage goods. The owners have hand crafted the earthen plasters and hand built the furniture

The owners also respect that the land is near the territory of the indigenous people and a portion of their income from their property is directly donated to indigenous organizations in their area.
