About this house rental
Escape to this 3-bedroom mid-century ranch style house that sleeps 6๐๏ธ
*2 King Beds ๐๐
*1 Queen Bunk Bed which is 2 Queen Mattresses ๐๐
Tucked away in the rugged heart of Yucca Valley, just a stone's throw from the raw beauty of Joshua Tree National Park, you'll find the Hidden Gold Ranch House. This isn't your typical vacation rental; it's a dive into the soul of the desert, a place where the wild, untamed spirit of the West is captured in every nook and cranny.
Surrounded by a grove of stoic Joshua Trees, the ranch offers a half-acre of private, resort-style living with a heated saltwater pool and spa that seem to whisper secrets of the desert under the moonlit sky ๐๐ฆ. Inside, the dรฉcor is a mix of cowboy and bohemian stylesโthink of it as a haven for those who live by their own rules, with king beds that invite tales of adventure and a queen bunk bed that's more than just a place to crash๐๏ธ๐ธ
Pool Maintenance Reminder:
For the best pool experience, Alvino, our pool specialist, performs essential maintenance on Tuesdays and Fridays between 12 PM and 2 PM. His work, crucial for ensuring clean and safe water, takes less than 20 minutes. We kindly ask for your cooperation during this brief time to allow access. Thank you for your understanding and helping us keep our pool in top condition.
During the colder months there will be a charge to heat the pool from $35 to $50 per day assessed and will be billed once the dates have been booked.
Step outside the gates, and you're in the heart of Yucca Valley's vibrant local scene, with stores, restaurants, and iconic spots like Pappy & Harriet's and the Integratron offering a taste of the local lore and live tunes that echo the desert's timeless call ๐ฝ๏ธ๐ถ. The treasure hunt continues with vintage and boutique shops scattered along Highway 62, each with its own story to tell ๐๏ธ๐.
But let's not gloss over the essence of this place. Hidden Gold Ranch House sits quietly in a peaceful neighborhood, a mere wander away from the vast wilderness of Joshua Tree National Park. Here, guests hold the keys to their own desert kingdom, complete with smart lock access and a spa remote controlโmodern conveniences that never overshadow the rustic charm ๐๐ต
The kitchen is a testament to the spirit of hospitality, stocked with spices and all the gear needed to brew up some Joshua Tree Coffee, making mornings something to look forward to โ๐ . And for those cooler desert nights, the pool's waters can be warmed, offering an oasis of comfort amid the whispering winds of the desert ๐โโ๏ธ๐ฅ.
Now, let's talk about the stars. The Hidden Gold Ranch House offers an unparalleled stargazing experience that's simply out of this world. With minimal light pollution, the night sky reveals itself in a spectacle of twinkling lights, galaxies, and shooting stars, turning the simple act of looking up into a profound cosmic journey ๐โจ. It's a reminder of the vastness of the universe and our place within it, all from the comfort of your desert retreat!
But this is more than just a place to stay; it's an invitation to live a little louder, to explore not just the landscape but also the limits of your own comfort zone. With a few ground rules to respect the tranquil vibe and local wildlife, it's about embracing the adventure while being mindful of the magic that makes this place unique ๐๐
Anthony Bourdain might have said it's about the journey, not just the destination. Hidden Gold Ranch House embodies this spirit, offering a basecamp for those eager to explore the raw, unfiltered beauty of Joshua Tree and its surroundings. It's more than just a vacation rentalโit's a gateway to experiences that stick with you, long after the desert dust has settled on your boots. ๐๐

We had a wonderful week-long stay at Hidden Gold. So sorry to leave. The pictures are accurate, but they canโt tell you what a great vibe it has. The patio/pool was our go-to area, and then back inside was easy, comfortable and welcoming. On a very nice, quiet street, but close enough to town and outdoor activities. Highly recommend.
Thank you, Monica and Skip. :)

The house was just as advertised - beautiful! We were in the pool most of the time and they had a blast. The house was very clean and well-stocked. Skip was responsive and all our needs were met. This is the place to go to unwind. My daughter and I were fortunate enough to hear the owl at night. Our dogs loved the yard. We will stay again!

Great property and well managed. Very clean and nicely updated. Host extremely response. This property lacks nothing. Our family of four were here for a Joshea Tree wedding. The location could not have been more perfect. Thanks VRBO for offering such great propertyโs.

The house is exactly as advertised. A very beautiful garden and pool with plenty of things to do. Inside the rooms are nice with good beds. For us it was a perfect place to enjoy our holiday and explore the nature nearby.

Just what my wife and I were hoping for. Tranquil and relaxing setting with perfect weather for visits with family.
The house is comfortable, well equipped with a beautiful pool. We especially liked all the trees with a wide variety of birds (including a Great Horned Owl that was a nightly visitor).

We had a fun and restful stay with 2 adults, 3 teens, and a 12 year old. All enjoyed the property, it's proximity to great hikes, the clean pool and pool toys, the access to everything we needed for preparing meals, and more. Beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. We also enjoyed some March Madness on the tv and everyone had a seat! Hosts Skip and Monica were helpful and communicative. We hope this was just our first stay.
5.0
Our family of five spent four nights here and enjoyed it immensely. The kids loved the bunk beds, horse themed room and especially the pool/hot tub.
I appreciated the well appointed kitchen, grill and fire pit. Plenty of towels for the pool and showering. There were lots of leftover spices, oil, coffee and cleaning supplies. These are usually things we have to buy when going to other VRBOs. It really felt like staying at a home and not just a rental property.
There were also games, a cute bar set up area in the living room and lots of seating at the dining table.
Great experience and highly recommend!

We had a very pleasant stay in this well supplied, comfortable house with a wonderful backyard and neighborhood. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and the many animals we saw on our daily walks. The owners could not have been more professional and helpful. We highly recommend this rental.

My 3 kids (10,8,4) had an incredible time here. The first impression when we walked in is how clean it was! Itโs so tastefully decorated and so comfortable. Theyโve thought of everything! Pool/backyard is fantastic. We plan to come back many times!

We stayed a week to hike in Joshua Tree. Property was clean, well maintained and owners were excellent at communication. Neighboorhood is quiet and felt very safe and family oriented. The backyard was a hit with the kids due to the pool and firepit. My husband and I enjoyed relaxing in the spa after hiking while the kids swam. The small fee to heat the pool all week was definitely worth it. The house was well stocked with everything we needed so other than a trip to the grocery store to get food we were set. There some nice restraunts around the area as well for nights we did not want to cook. Highly recommend.
5.0
The moment we walked into the house we knew this was a keeper. Everything you need is there, home is stocked with amenities and extras. The backyard is an oasis and very welcoming especially after a day of hiking. If you are looking for comfort, cleanliness and a homey feeling this place is it!
5.0
Truly a magical place to stay! Unbelievably spotless, comfy beds with luxurious sheets, beautiful interior design & amazing backyard for sure made our stay unforgettable. The kitchen is well-packed and has everything you need to cook. As a person with OCD, those little things like the notes on the switches, on the appliances, and the detailed house guide tell me how much the owner put in effort to ensure our stay is smooth. Skip is super responsive & communicative on the other hand, so surely worry-free on booking this place. No doubt that I would be more than happy to give a 10 if possible out of just 5 stars.
5.0
WOW! Where do I begin! From the moment we walked in we were impressed with the cleanliness of the home. The decor was perfect! The pool & spa were amazing. It seemed as though they thought of everything. I loved that the light switches were labeled & great instructions for the hot tub, etc. The neighborhood was quiet & peaceful. Stargazing was the best! We would definitely recommend & hope to return to Hidden Gold Ranch. Thanks again Skip & Monica for a great week & opening up your home for us to enjoy!!

We had a great time at this house. We explored Yucca Valley, Pioneer Town, and Joshua Tree National Park. The house is in a nice neighborhood and is quiet and relaxing. Everything you need from the well equipped kitchen to the large private back yard with very nice pool and spa. We appreciate the tips we got from Skip re great places to eat and shops to check out. We will definitely return. Thanks!

Iโve always been fascinated by the nighttime sky, but we donโt see very many stars while living in Las Vegas, so I planned a short getaway to the Joshua Tree National Park area to do some sky gazing. I chose this property to stay in for two nights, based on its amenities and the reviews given by other guests. I was not disappointed in my choice.
The house is in relatively close proximity to the park. The swimming pool, jacuzzi, fire pit, barbecue grill, and backyard games were delightful, and we appreciated the fully-fenced yard for our dog.
Inside, the accommodations were very comfortable, and the provisions were well thought-out and plentiful. My husband commented as we were watching an NFL football game that he had never sat on such comfortable furniture in a rental house before! The kitchen and bathrooms were also well-stocked.
Thank you, Skip and Monica, for sharing this house with us. We had a wonderful time!

We stayed for a quick weekend visit for the Perseid Meteor shower and had a great time. Skip and Monica are incredibly thoughtful hosts. All details were considered - stocked pantry with what we needed to cook our meals, walking sticks for hiking, binoculars, outdoor / indoor games - the pool and home were immaculate! Such a great find. Weโll stay longer next time.

We had a great time, relaxing in the back yard with pool and jacuzzi, watching the Dodgers and enjoying the surroundings. My dad had a cabin up the canyon by Pioneertown. We bought it in 1960 for $1. Sold it after the landerโs earthquake for $1000 in 1993.

What a lovely home! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this comfortable, delightfully decorated and amply provisioned abode which made for a great retreat after all of our adventures in the area. Would return in a heartbeat!

This house is wonderful in every way! Neighborhood is safe and well kept, also very quiet. Neighbors are friendly. The pool and yard are amazing. Very large yard with plenty of games and toys. The shelf in the pool was great for my mother to get in and out of the pool (mobility issues) and would be fantastic for young children too. The spa is wonderful at night, very peaceful. The kitchen has all amenities you might need. The living room is very spacious, beds very comfortable (so is the couch). The house is a short distance from the Joshua Tree visitor center and we enjoyed hiking in the park too. Check in and checkout was seamless, hosts very responsive. My family would definitely stay here again. I very much recommend this home, The best place my family has stayed.

We loved our stay here. The house was clean, quiet, and even better than anticipated. The pool and backyard were both amazing and the jacuzzi was so relaxing!

Skip and Monica's delightful property's the perfect place for our family to kickback and relax. Both of our sons work in very high charged industries, one being a music educator and session recording artist...the other as a broadcast engineer in TV sports. They were able to relax and enjoy the home and the beauty of the nature surrounding us
