This place is a really cool glimpse into the life of an early desert settler. My girlfriend and I stumbled across this cool looking building on our way out of town so we decided to check it out, and we’re so glad we did. The staff were all really friendly & knowledgeable, and it was fascinating learning about Cabot Yerxa’s life and the story of this place. It only takes about an hour or 2 and it’s really worth checking out if you’re in the area!

This museum is really neat to go through. Worth it to get the self-guided tour. It's very educational and cool to have a part of the audio per room. The upstairs apartment was beautiful. Walking the grounds was very cool and not boring at all. Plenty to see. Staff was very kind and responsive. Parking was plenty and easy. We highly suggest being able to see and experience some great history of the area.

The self-guided tour at Cabot’s Pueblo was hit and miss. The recordings themselves were wonderful — engaging and interesting — but the experience needs better organization. With two different guides and no clear flow, the tour felt scattered at times. You really have to pay attention and hunt for the “Easter eggs.” Once outside, the QR codes didn’t work consistently, which made it harder to follow along. And there’s a tremendous amount to see — the space deserves a more structured path to fully appreciate it. The Trading Post is exceptional. The pottery from Mata Ortiz, Chihuahua ranges from accessible pieces to higher-end works, all of it beautiful and thoughtfully curated. If you’re looking for something meaningful and artistic, this is the place. Purchases there help support and maintain this remarkable Pueblo and the surrounding land.

A must stop when your in the palm springs area. Small little museum with alot of photo op opportunities. Learn about the history of the Desert Hot Springs area. Dr. Robert Bingham sounded like a good guy and inspiration.

It's really amazing what Cabot was able to do here, starting at nearly 60 years old and by himself! Highly recommend the Audio Self- Guided Tour. Inside, you'll find lots of photographs, artwork, vintage tools, kitchenware, Native American artifacts, and more! Be free to walk around, especially behind the Pueblo, where you'll get a spectacular view of the mountains and valley. Restroom facilities are on site with a water fountain. They also have a nice gift shop. Have fun!
