About Cabot's Pueblo Museum

Cabot's Pueblo Museum is a historic house museum in Desert Hot Springs, California. Pioneer Cabot Yerxa built the large Hopi-style pueblo himself, and it holds artworks, artifacts of American Indian and Alaska Native cultures, and memorabilia from early desert homestead life. Visitors can choose guided or self-guided tours, which lead through the rooms of the pueblo, and grounds-only visits that include the courtyard, outer buildings, and views of the Coachella Valley. The museum has also hosted live music events, such as its Pueblo Sessions series.
