Experience the Victorian-West @Riot Material Ranch The high-desert retreat of Riot Material Ranch is nestled into the rolling foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains, just a stone’s throw from Joshua Tree National Park. Our home is designed in the rough yet refined manner of Western Steam-Punk meets high-plains Bordello-Saloon. A striking Victorian Spiral Staircase holds center stage, while charming one-of-a-kind, individually picked vintage pieces of furniture and ornaments give your stay an artistic welcoming!We offer an environment that values creativity and intellect and will inspire the artistic drive within you! Our home showcases lovely dark-stained wooden ceilings, windows and French doors. Warm hardwood flooring upstairs and a cooling concrete floor downstairs, the space is artistically decorated with a Western-Victorian vintage-chic interior and finished with hand-selected industrial vintage light fixtures. There is one large master bedroom with an open on-suite bathroom. This main bedroom has double French door windows with magestic views of the Pioneertown Mountains Preserve. You can bathe in the claw-foot tub and let your mind roam the wild terrains of the Preserve. Feel free to use the two armoires for your clothes, and for deep winters and high summers be sure to turn on the heater/AC units as needed. The remote for this unit is on the wall next to the armoire. For much of the year, however, the ceiling fan and open windows is all you will ever need. The Victorian cast iron spiral staircase lands just at the edge of the second loft bedroom, aka the Studio Bedroom. This room also has double French door windows which look out over the rocky, high desert terrains of Rimrock and the rolling foothills of the San Bernadino Mountains. A ceiling fan and an air conditioner/heater also keep this room comfortable in any season (the remote is on the wall next to the armoire). Both rooms have orthopedic queen beds, luxurious black Egyptian cotton sateen weave bedsheets and down pillows and duvets. Bedroom floors are laid in hardwood and stained in dark walnut. The two bathrooms - one upstairs and one downstairs - have turn-of-the-century claw-foot tubs which sit in Victorian-inspired tiled enclaves, each beneath a lovely archway. The cottage-style kitchen has 100-year old redwood cabinets, rescued from a fallen barn, and a modern concrete counter top. It has all modern appliances and plenty of chinaware and cutlery for your enjoyment, and everything you need for morning tea and coffee. It is open plan with view into the living-room and beyond. Our couch comfortably seats up to 8 people for easy conversations with friends and family. We have a gas & charcoal grill BBQ at the back of the house.Riot Material Ranch sits on 5 acres of pristine high desert land at the northern edge of Pioneertown Mountains Preserve, traversing hundreds of thousands of acres designated to desert wilderness. The quaint village of Rimrock, just to the North, is an easy stroll along the dirt roads at the Western edge of our land.Our year-round Cowboy Hot Tub, nestled in among the native shrub oak is for day time use or evening soaks under the stars. It can be left cool and fresh in the Summer months for a refreshing dip or heated for a hot soak in the evenings or the Winter months. Please ask if you would like to use it as it remains locked in accordance with California State Law.Our Vintage Airstream & Corvette Trailer on the property are for decoration only. No Guest Access!There is outside seating everywhere on the land. Stoll up to Rock Garden Bench at the Western corner of the land for a silent and solitary morning tea or an early evening glass of wine, climb up into the Bird House to shade from the heat for an afternoon tea or sit in quiet meditation, wander up to Panorama Point to experience the view of Sawtooth Mountain Range, Pipes Canyon, Rimrock Village and beyond. Enjoy an early dinner seated at Banquet Bench in the center of our young Eucalyptus Grove, and lastly, enjoy a restful swing on a starry night under the desert sky from the Hammock Quadrant, placed perfectly in the Four Directions; North, South, East and West.The young trees on the land immediately around the house are mesquite, olive, cottonwood, desert willow, acacia, Texas umbrella, scrub oak and, of course, the cherished Joshua Tree. Plants such as sage, lavender, sugar bush, desert mallow, ocotillo, various cacti and succulents as well as numerous natives make the walk around both the driveway and the surrounding land an absolute pleasure!
