Although this gift shop is called«Joshua Tree National Park Gift Shop» it is a privately operated store and it is not part of Joshua Tree National Park. This gift shop is located directly across the street from another gift shop, that is, the gift shop run by the National Park Service. Joshua Tree National Park Gift Shop is the better gift shop. It has a better selection of books, apparel, souvenirs, and minerals. From this gift shop, I have purchased those wonderful pop-up postcards, where the act of unfolding the postcard causes animals and cacti to pop up. Also, from this gift shop, I have purchased books on desert animals, which I mailed to my mother. Furthermore, this gift shop caters to the desert-spiritualists, because of its selection of gems and crystals. As mentioned above, the gift shop across the street(the shop run by the National Park Service) is somewhat disappointing. During the years 2011 – 2014, I made twentythree trips to Joshua Tree National Park, and several visits to the two gift shops. That is how I know which gift shop is the better one!

Perfect spot to buy souvenirs and gifts! They literally have everything, ranging from magnets, postcards, wand sage, crystals and stones, hats, jewelries, clothing, journals, toys, you name it! Reasonable prices and they also accept credit/debit cards. This place is located in a little plaza with other attractions to see such as the salon museum, colorful school bus, plus the World Famous Crochet Museum(tiny green square museum) – definitely a must-see! It’s also near the Bath House.

Super cute little shop to stop by when visiting Joshua Tree. It looks like a structure from an old Western movie. As soon as you enter, you notice the tons of stuff to browse and select from. I guarantee you will not leave empty handed. They have little knick– knacks, key chains, books(some of which I even read for a bit), bracelets, and they even sell the local coffee house grind of Joshua Tree aka Joshua Tree Coffee Company. In short, they sell everything! The awesome thing is that they sell items that are imported from artists in the area. They also import from places like Mexico and Perú. So you’re definitely buying and supporting someone else’s art! Give this place a go if you’re in the are, you won’t regret it!

The air conditioning is the best! It’s so hot out here haha. But what helps is that they carry lots of locally made items with so much history in them. Dream boxes, jewelry, diaries with leather binding, and every other odd and end you could want in a gift shop. The woman working here has such a nice demeanor and everyone at these little shops in JT is so kind! Thanks for a great weekend, Joshua Tree! Til next time

The general store has a wide variety of gifts and supplies for kids and adults. Besides the usual trinkets and touristy items, the shop also contains basics for camping and rock climbing. They have a wide range of candy and small snacks. I was impressed that they sold hiking sticks.

Fun shop filled with all kinds of gifts and goodies. Lots to look at and A surprisingly large variety as well. I’ve been in the shop only a couple of times but both experiences have been very enjoyable as the counter person was very kind and helpful. If you’re in the Joshua tree area be sure and stop by this very unique gift shop.
