The “Pause House” is just that, a gorgeous spot where you can pause from the rat race of every day and find solace in a cozy modern cabin nestled in Yucca Mesa. The 560 square foot studio has all the luxuries of home and more — like a hot tub and soaking pool with dazzling sunset views.
There’s a covered patio to let you enjoy eating outside, but inside has a full kitchen and a cozy L-shaped couch where you can relax after a long day of touring the area. Would you live here?
