Desert Homestead Province is a province of the Republic of Molossia located in western San Bernardino County, about 31 km (19 mi) northeast of the town of Yucca Valley, California. Desert Homestead is exactly five acres in size and is open low desert, with mostly sand, scrub brush and creosote bushes. It lies on a low ridge not far from Yucca Valley and Joshua Tree, California, and is near to the Twenty-nine Palms Marine Corps Base and Joshua Tree National Monument. On 9 December 2018, Grand Duke Travis paid an informal visit to Desert Homestead for a day of quiet relaxation on Molossia's sovereign soil. Upon arrival, he discovered that the paving stones that comprise Baugh Terrace and the solar lights that light the terrace had all been stolen by desert dwelling thieves. His Royal Highness was quite distressed and immediately called President Baugh to report the theft. The President concluded it was bound to happen eventually and the two leaders discussed the possibility of sinking the pavers in concrete on a future visit.
