Gorgeous View, Great Accommodations

This was a very cute and comfy home for me and three friends to stay in. We loved the view, hearing they coyotes at night and not having a fence to block our view, the hammocks / hammock chairs and hot tub! Beds were comfy and the host was easy to communicate with. Thank you! :-)

Wonderful Family Trip

The Joshua Tree Desert Retreat home was the perfect place for our family to stay while we visited JTNP. There was plenty of room for our family of four, plus my husband's sister who came up from San Diego. The house had everything we needed and a lot of little touches, like phone chargers in the rooms. My boys especially loved the game room in the garage and enjoyed having a place to go play when it got a bit too hot in the afternoon. The backyard was a lot of fun and was great for sitting out and watching the sunrise. We would definitely recommend this house and my boys already said that we must stay there again next time we visit Joshua Tree. Thank you, Jimmy!

It was great.The host was really responsive. The place was really clean and nice. There is neighbors on each side, but once you're in a house, it's open space in the backyard. The only downside was that the jacuzzi were not really working, the football is broken.

Lovely

The property was in a perfect location for a Joshua Tree adventure. We were able to get an early start and use the house as a home base. The house was well equipped with all the essentials. The hammocks were lovely for stargazing! It was a perfect home with plenty of space and activities to keep everyone happy. My only complaint is that there were only two kitchen towels that were not very absorbent and that was a very minor detail. Overall, we loved our stay & would come again.

Hidden Gem with Spectacular Views and Exceptional Amenities!

Our recent stay at this VRBO rental was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were in communication with an attentive host who ensured every detail was perfect for our stay. The property itself was immaculate, showcasing a high level of care and cleanliness that made us feel right at home.One of the standout features was the wonderful extras provided, such as luxurious spa robes that added a touch of indulgence to our mornings. The pool table offered hours of entertainment, and the well-stocked coffee bar was a delightful surprise, perfect for starting our days. After a few hours of hiking in Joshua Tree National Park, the jacuzzi was a welcome treat, providing the perfect way to relax and unwind.The location of the property was truly unbeatable. Backing up to Joshua Tree National Park, we had direct access to stunning natural beauty and amazing views that took our breath away. The central location made it easy to explore nearby attractions and enjoy the best of what the area has to offer.We couldn't ask for anything more from this rental. It was the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and luxury. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing getaway. We can't wait to return! Truly above a 10 on the scale!

Jimmy was extremely helpful and responsive to all my questions as my family and I prepared for our stay. The check-in process couldn't have been easier.But the best part was walking into this 4 bedroom emaculate home where we found everything one could have hoped for during a holiday stay. The bathrooms and kitchen were fully stocked, wanting for absolutely nothing.The garage has ping-pong, pool table, the back yard has jacuzzi, cornhole, bbq, hammocks and, the best part, an unobstructed view of Joshua Tree and environs. We saw numerous birds, rabbits, and an early morning coyote. Stunning experience! Thank you Jimmy!! But the best part was walking into this 4 bedroom a

Lovely house and fabulous grounds

One of the best properties we have ever stayed at. Great proximity to Joshua Tree Park. Incredible backyard directly adjacent to the desert and beautifully furnished. The house has a lovely spa-like vibe. Well equipped with much to entertain yourself with and nicely stocked bathrooms with upgraded products such as soaps, lotions and towels. Even includes quality bathrobes. This was a perfect place for a girls trip getaway!

Desert Enchantment: A Perfect Joshua Tree Getaway

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home in Joshua Tree! The backyard was pure magic—just endless desert and mountain views, with daily visits from coyotes, roadrunners, and lizards. There were so many inviting spots to relax and soak in the warm sun, making it the perfect place to unwind after a day of adventure.The house itself was thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need and more—camp chairs for stargazing, a fully stocked coffee bar, yoga mats, and even shampoo sets. Every detail felt well-considered and welcoming.The location couldn’t have been better, just five minutes from the Western Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park. We spent three days hiking and exploring, and the park exceeded our expectations with its stunning rock formations, peaceful trails, and pristine beauty. Even on a busy weekend, we found solitude just by stepping a little off the main paths.We also made a side trip to Palm Springs, where we enjoyed warm weather and a surprisingly lush oasis at the Andreas Trail in Indian Canyons—seeing waterfalls in the desert was an unforgettable experience!None of us wanted to leave, and we’re already dreaming of a return visit. Highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a peaceful desert retreat!
