Ratings and reviews
5.0 / 5.0
A beautiful dwelling. Secluded yet close to amenities. Modern finishes and it was stocked with essentials. We enjoyed the privacy and the screened patio the most. We both noted that the cleanliness standard was a bit low. The kitchen shelves were very dirty, the window sill in the spare bedroom was full of sand and we noted that a few dishes needed a reclean before use. Perhaps this was a "one-off". Overall we would recommend this unit.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved this place and really enjoyed our time, although it was a bit far from Joshua Tree Park. But, being remote was really nice. Great hosts as well who checked in on us.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved this vacation rental. It was located away from other houses so there was privacy and few lights so we could enjoy the stars. It was well equipped for us and our dog loved being outside and walking in the desert. It is the perfect desert get away.
5.0 / 5.0
The pictures in the listing show just how cute the place is. We had a great time, the house was very clean, organized well, and had all the little touches that made it special. We will definitely go back!
5.0 / 5.0
Very serene property with cozy set up. I will definitely stay there again. Very responsive owners!
5.0 / 5.0
The home is just as pictured- very well decorated and stocked with essentials, clean plates/glasses, and comfortable bedding. Host was very communicative and helpful when we had questions.
We would definitely stay here again - probably in the warmer season so we could enjoy more of the amenities like the screened in porch area and cowboy pool. Hot tub was great and clean- it was chilly & windy during our stay but we still managed to use it twice.
Fire pit was very cute and they have blankets to take out there.
The location was good for both entrances of Joshua Tree, about 15-25 mins I believe.
