Come On Barbie Let's Go Party (In the Desert)
Google as much as you want but you won't find an address for this secret desert diorama in the middle of nowhere Joshua Tree, CA. You will, however, get directions e-mailed to you, but only if you book!
Walking into the grounds you enter a lifesized Barbie playland pop-up-book complete with themed trailers including (from left to right) "The Pioneer" western trailer, the "Integra-trailer" with alien antennae headbands, the girlie "The Fifi" trailer with a mini-trampoline, "The Lux" haunted house trailer (in honor of The Cramps' lead singer) and more that I'll leave to your imagination.
Bizarre? Yes. But so is everything in Joshua Tree so embrace the weirdness, drink a beer, enjoy the hot tub, shoot a BB gun and make s'mores in the teepee.

Congrats, Susan!
This makes me want to go back to the desert NOW
I really love this Highlight. It's so unique and fun, and local too!
Well this is definitely the next place I want to travel to in the USA! Great highlight.
I'm so curious--did you stay there? Is it family friendly? I guess you sleep in the trailers, then? What services/amenities do they offer?
@Mandy - Yes, I went with a group of friends. It's family friendly but space is pretty tight in the trailers. We had a larger one (New World) that could sleep up to 6 with a kitchen and bathroom/shower so that could be good for a family. There's additional shared bathrooms and showers outside. There's a pool, hot tub, bbq, wi-fi, ping pong, archery & bb gun range, horseshoes, darts, bar area and a firepit in the teepee!
