Wish we could have stayed longer!

This place was amazing!! The bed was unbelievably comfortable and the yurt was well-stocked with everything we needed to be camping without packing our camping gear. Erin was super helpful. The stars were as promised: worth waiting up for.

Our stay in the Joshua Tree desert yurt was absolutely unforgettable. My husband, son, and I were welcomed by Erin, who was an incredible host—warm, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The yurt itself was thoughtfully equipped, giving us the perfect balance of comfort and the rustic charm of camping. At night, the sky lit up with more stars than I’ve ever seen in my life—it was truly magical. If you’ve never stayed in a yurt before, I can’t recommend this experience enough. It’s the kind of adventure everyone should do at least once, and Joshua Tree is the perfect place to do it.

The Mongolian yurt that we stayed in was beautiful. It was nice and cozy on a cool spring night in the desert. The beds are amazingly clean and comfortable. There is a small inside sink and some kitchen setup. The property is secluded but does have neighbors and access to 29 Palms. There is an outhouse and outside shower stall. Nice outside sitting area with a firepit. Great experience.

Fun glamping experience close to Joshua Tree NP. Yurt was very comfortable with electric heater that kept it toasty warm. Outdoor shower was nice and hot. Toilet was... interesting... Pump set up took some getting used to but we got the hang of it eventually and everything was nice and clean. It was really windy the days we were there so we didn't have a fire or BBQ but the set up is quite nice for that.

This is a very unique property and we had a special time here as a family staying overnight in the large blue yurt. We had clear, dark skies at night for star gazing and sitting around a campfire. Erin was wonderful in communicating with us and helping us to get settled. The beds were very comfy. It was glorious to wake up to a sunny day and we enjoyed using the outdoor shower. We loved the gorgeous details of our Mongolian yurt - the beautiful painted door and beams inside. It felt far away from everything but we were also close enough to restaurants and a market. We would love to visit again!!

This is a very different experience than staying in a hotel. Erin has eight Yurts she imported from Mongolia. There is no TV and you should expect to be fairly quiet. It’s west of 29 Palms and about 20 minutes from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. This is in a desert so expect it to be hot but there is air conditioning. The shower is outside. We enjoyed eating dinner on the picnic table followed by sitting outside and watching the stars as the night deepened. Much more fun than a hotel.

Magnificent stay in a Mongolian yurt

Staying in one of Erin’s Mongolian yurts was a beautiful, unique experience that my husband and I will never forget. The bed was yummy, we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the area has a quiet, stark beauty. After a hike from the property and a fantastic dinner in town (at the host-recommended 29 Palms Inn), we sat around the firepit and gazed at the magnificent night sky. We slept soundly and awoke to a gorgeous sunrise before heading to Joshua Tree. Erin is an excellent communicator and runs a top-notch business. Don’t miss out on your chance to stay in a yurt! The outdoor shower and toilet add to the charm. Don’t overthink it and enjoy!
View from the property—great for taking an easy hike

Unvergessliches Abenteuer in der Wüste

Einfach KLASSE! Super zuvorkommende Gastgeberin! Wir denken sehr gerne an die Nacht zurück. Supermarkt mit super Produkten nur 10 Minuten entfernt, dann lecker grillen und am Feuer bis mitten in die Nacht sitzen. Wirklich super! Klar, Komfort sieht anders ja mit der Toilette und Dusche. Aber wir sind ja auch mitten in der Wüste und übernachten in einem Zelt und nicht im Hotelzimmer. Es ist ein kleines Abenteuer!
