Ocotillo gave us a much needed retreat for four wonderful days. I especially liked the views of the desert and the wildlife. Lara was a great host!

Beautiful house, great view!

My husband and I stayed one night but wish we booked for the weekend. As first timers to Yucca Valley we wanted star gazing and tranquility, this property was perfect! It also had a beautiful decor, comfortable beds and a well appointed backyard. Will definitely stay again!

Wonderful stay in the desert

Great property out in the desert conveniently located not far from Joshua Tree and Yucca Valley. Great base to explore JTNP and surrounding area. House is clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with all you need. Stargazing from the hot tub during the evening is a must! Lots of wildlife nearby is an added bonus. Highly recommended!

Secluded Getaway

Octotillo was a great place to getaway. Lara's instructions were clear and concise. The house is tucked away north of Joshua Tree National Park and was everything you could ask for in a vacation destination. The property has great views of the night sky and we were able to see a few meteors. House was fairly clean and the beds comfortable. The firepit was welcoming and Literally off the beaten path and away far from the maddening crowds. Getting there requires navigating unpaved roads but it's manageable in a tiny sedan in the day time. Their is a neighboring house that we didn't see anyone at. It's a quiet place to get your mind away from work and enjoy the outdoors. Would definitely come back.

Fantastic stay - 10/10 recommend!

We absolutely loved this desert getaway. The dirt road drive-up is a bit daunting, but once you get there, you'll be grateful for how remote it feels. Just you, the house and the silent desert! Plus loads of amenities -- we sat in the hot tub every night, made s'mores by the outdoor fire, cozied up to the indoor fire. We cooked in the beautiful kitchen and were surprised by how well stocked it was! We had our choice of cooking utensils, spices and pans. And we loved eating outside at the big backyard table. The beds/linens are super luxe and comfortable, too. Every detail is immaculately designed and well taken care of, you can tell. Seriously one of the best rental houses we’ve seen. We only wish we could've stayed longer! Thanks to Lara for an excellent stay.

Great place and very rustic

We had a great stay here. 10/10 - everything was clean, lots of kitchen items, and your basic amenities. The road getting there was a bit rough, but this was communicated by the host. The property was large, and the house itself was very open and clean. Very great for pictures and to feel solitude. With all thay said, it wasn't our cup of tea. Most outside windows in the common areas dont have blinds/curtains so during the day, it let in lots of beautiful natural light which we loved, but we preferred more privacy at night. The bedrooms however DO have blinds so it was nice and dark when we slept. Again- nothing wrong with the propery and I understand why this place is rated so highly. This was just our preference. We would still recommend it other friends of ours because it is a really cool place.

Unique secluded desert home experience

The home is very unique and we thought it very cool that it is often used as an artists retreat. Make sure you check spam for the detailed check in information. We are glad we arrived in the daylight as you must take an unmarked dirt road to get there. The home is very open with window coverings only in the bedrooms so prepare for that. Usually when I travel to new places I like to close myself in at night so that felt a bit uncomfortable for me to not be able to draw any blinds/curtains etc especially as the property is very isolated save a neighbor separated by chain link fence. We tried the hot tub but unfortunately the water was set at too chilly a temperature to enjoy. I imagine if you came during the hot time of year, it would feel great, but there was still snow in the mountains and it only got up to the mid 50’s while we were there. The location had great access to Joshua Tree and that’s what we came for. Additionally it was a quick few minute drive to town for shopping dining etc. Make sure to hit the snake bite for a burger and beverage while in town. Very cool unique open large peaceful spot! Very comfy beds and linens.

Get away no tv no people

How star skies show on painting and television was a dream of ours and this location made it come true!It feel like its in the middle of no where with lots of bumpy dirty riads which will make you question about having a four wheeler or a big truck or suv. DOUBLE CHECK EMAIL & MESSAGES FOR PROPER ROUTE! If not given contact host.Once you make it with the code that they tell you before you get in you will instantly feel at ease. The floors and cool concrete which is perfect for the summer. Empty yet full of good energy with random pieces of art and funture near by. There is one restroom on the side and two comfortable bedrooms separate. The kitchen is in the middle and living room right there is the back with comfortable seats table and a record player with lots of records to choose from!Sliding the glass door to the back there is a beautiful view with jacuzzi, metal tub, outdoor table, bbq grill and seats and a fire pit. You want firewood? No problem! They have a little convenience store not too far where you can buy firewood, charcoal and other things you typically find in a liquor store ot 7-ELEVEN[but! no fresh hot food! Remember that you are staying in a dessert stay. There are wild plants and animals(including bugs) so do NOT be surprised to see little critters around when you turn on the light to the restroom or wake up in the morning to find a little uninvited guest in the kitchen.Jacuzzi? Amazing! Looking at the stars outside? Out of this world!Lovely stay.

Wonderful desert hideaway

The Ocotillo was exactly what we were looking for when we visited Joshua Tree. It's a lovely, relaxing property very near the park. We enjoyed hiking the isolated desert around the house and never saw a single person. We all enjoyed the Jacuzzi and cowboy pool. Nights were especially lovely on the back porch. Highly recommend!

Desert getaway

Had an amazing stay! Went with my husband and infant (6months). The pool was fantastic and super clean, the rooms were cozy and well done and the kitchen had everything we needed. Wouldn’t recommend if you have a small child who is mobile as the floors are concrete and uneven in places but for us it was perfect. Great added touch of the art gallery in the back, was super cool to see art from the park and then hike in the park seeing all the formations from the gallery. Directions for entry and how to find the place were easy and great communication from host

Perfect Hi Desert Experience

The Ocotillo exceeded my expectations and offered everything I had hoped for and then some. Loved that it is quiet and secluded, but still easy to get to Joshua Tree. The house itself is beautifully designed and felled very cozy. Communication with Lara was easy and she responded quickly to questions. I will definitely be back!

Perfect Girls' Weekend

The property is located a mile down a dirt road (we were able to easily navigate in sedans), which offers the perfect balance of seclusion and access to the park and nightlife of Joshua Tree. The home was thoughtfully furnished and the hot tub overlooking the landscape was perfect. Would re-book in a heartbeat!

Artistic stay in the high desert

We really enjoyed our stay at the Ocotillo. Highlights for us were star gazing, sunrises, and the comfortable beds. The Joshua Trees on the property and in the surrounding area are great too. There are washboarded dirt roads required to get to the property, but we didn't have any difficulty with them in an AWD sedan.
