Pacific Coast Commercial is pleased to exclusively present this rare Ground Lease opportunity at the intersection of State Highway 62 / Twentynine Palms Highway and Trojan Lane in Yucca Valley, California — a ±137,650 SF (3.16-acre) General Commercial (C-G) zoned parcel positioned directly adjacent to the California Welcome Center, the first stop for visitors entering the High Desert.
This is not just a piece of land along a highway — it is a strategic location at the gateway to one of Southern California’s most recognizable desert destinations. Yucca Valley serves as the commercial hub for the Joshua Tree Gateway Communities, capturing both daily local demand and the steady flow of visitors traveling toward Joshua Tree National Park, one of the region’s most visited destinations with millions of annual visitors.
Located along the region’s primary commercial corridor, this site benefits from exceptional visibility along Highway 62 with direct exposure to approximately 29,000 vehicles per day. Positioned where travelers naturally pause, orient, fuel up, and prepare for their desert experience, the property offers an opportunity for a user or developer seeking a highly visible location with built-in traffic and regional draw.
Yucca Valley continues to evolve beyond its traditional role as a pass-through community. The area has experienced significant growth driven by desert tourism, short-term rentals, remote workers relocating to the High Desert lifestyle, outdoor recreation, and the continued presence of Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms. The community’s expanding residential base creates consistent demand for everyday services, food and beverage, retail, and convenience-oriented uses.
At approximately 3,300 feet elevation in the Morongo Basin, Yucca Valley offers a unique blend of local population growth and destination-driven traffic. Residents, weekend travelers, Joshua Tree visitors, adventure seekers, and military families all converge along this corridor — creating a strong opportunity for a well-positioned commercial concept.
With its hard corner visibility, commercial zoning, proximity to the California Welcome Center, and strategic location between the Coachella Valley, Los Angeles region, and Joshua Tree National Park, this Ground Lease opportunity provides a rare chance to establish a presence at one of the High Desert’s most visible intersections.
