LOCAL ADD-ON EXPERIENCES

From sound baths and in-home massages to stargazing under some of the darkest skies in Southern California, we've handpicked local vendors to match whatever mood you're in. Book a personal chef for a lazy night in, saddle up for a horseback ride, or take a guided hike through the National Park or other local trails. However you want to spend your time here, relaxing or adventuring, the desert (and our favorite locals) has you covered. Once your reservation is confirmed, let us know you are interested and we will connect you!



Guest Access:

The property and house is yours to roam and relax.



Getting Around:

We recommend traveling by car to explore Joshua Tree for maximum flexibility, as ride sharing services are unreliable. If you prefer not to drive, the local taxi service Lucky 777 is a dependable option. Our property offers free parking for up to four vehicles to ensure your car is kept secure during your stay.



Other Things to Note:

3:00PM Check-In: We'd love for you to check in before 8pm so you have plenty of daylight to settle in and get comfortable before dark.

Guest Policy: We only allow the number of guests listed as the maximum occupancy for this property, so any additional day guests must be requested and approved in advance. No extra overnight guests are permitted beyond those included in your reservation.



Watch your Step: This desert land holds onto bits of its past, so you may spot the occasional rusty object or piece of glass in the yard, please wear shoes anytime you're outside. You'll also be sharing the landscape with local snakes and scorpions. They want nothing to do with you, so if you see one, just back away calmly and quietly



Wood Burning Fires: We do not permit wood-burning fires anywhere on the property at any time, including in fire pits or fireplaces, due to the high risk of wildfire in our area. This policy is strictly enforced for the safety of our guests, neighbors, and the surrounding landscape,.



Desert Critters: Please keep doors closed while entering and exiting, curious critters will let themselves in given the chance. Desert wildlife is part of what makes this area special, expect sightings of jackrabbits, tortoises, roadrunners, quail, and lizards. You may also spot coyotes, rattlesnakes, scorpions, or occasionally a bobcat or mountain lion. Most just want their space, so it's best to give them yours.



Camera/ Decibel Monitor: This property has forward-facing exterior security cameras, but there are no cameras anywhere inside the home. We also use noise decibel monitors indoors to help avoid disturbing neighbors. These only measure sound levels and never record audio.

First VRBO Stay

This was our first VRBO reservation and it was really pretty good. The photos well represented the interiors which were immaculately kept. The home’s location was close to the JTNP Visitor Center, the entrance to the park, and Sky High Pie for dinner. We enjoyed ourselves.

Great location, lovely house

We visited for my daughter’s 14th birthday. She picked this house so that she and her cousin could stay in the casita. They were thrilled with that space and loved having their own hang out. The four adults and one small child in our group were very comfortable in the main house. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit every night! You really can’t go wrong with the location. Gorgeous vistas, right next to the playground and an awesome hiking trail. And of course, Joshua Tree NP just down the road! We had a wonderful visit and will return!!

Wonderful Location for Joshua Tree

Very good access to the park and rabbit, coyote, and bird viewing off the well appointed sunny deck. Could be a five star rating but there were a number of small things that could use improvement. The kitchen is short on silverware and larger sauté pans for cooking. The freezer needs attention and the lighting in the eating area is poor (we brought in a lamp from the garage). The casita needs a place to hang clothes or perhaps a dresser.

Could Yse Sone TLC

The house was good for our family but little problems & lack of some linens, made the stay less enjoyable. The exhaust fan in the main bathroom did not work & the sink in the same bathroom did not drain well. The exhaust fan on the stove, did not work, either. Only one washcloth was found in the main house. The curtains in the bedroom are very light weight, so thin, that the morning light lit up the rooms. The casita had a double bed top sheet, on a queen size bed…it was too small! Only one wash cloth in that bathroom, too. A blanket folded on the casita’s bed was dirty. A nice house but not maintained very well.

Magical Joshua Tree Home

Overall we loved the experience and the house. Best feature was the Great Room with big windows and sweeping views. Beds in the main house was comfortable and kitchen was reasonably well stocked. Cleanliness issues mostly on outside (gross dirty porch where you arrive, not inviting) but inside was very clean. Our biggest issue was the separate “casita” was totally oversold. A room off the garage with uncomfortable bed and pillows - no dresser or closet for clothes - and very small. Super disappointed. Also the check in instructions were wrong and we couldn’t get into that space. We finally figured out you had to go through the garage and another door but while we had the property manager on the phone they told us we weren’t allowed to go through the garage in a tone like we were doing something wrong? She said they would fix the instructions but we didn’t appreciate being scolded for trying to get into the casita. They were very responsive when the BBQ wouldn’t light and rushed over with a long handled lighter since there were no matches on premises. Also a few other maintenance items like burned out light bulbs. We loved the electric gate and so much room for parking. The hot tub was fantastic and worked great. Again overall we love Joshua Tree and the vibe but this was one of those houses they marketed and took pictures to make it look slightly better than it actually is. They do mention the lack of privavxy on one side with an RV by the fence and nosy neighbors. Our two dogs loved it and the fence around the property was perfect!

Lovely Weekend Getaway, Terrible Phone Customer Service

We had a wonderful time here! 6 adults, 2 kids, and a dog had plenty of space and loved and enjoyed all the amenities of the property. We got in just fine and really liked using the online guide. Best part was seeing the sky light up at night from the hammock and venturing out on the little walk just outside the fence. We heard coyotes and saw lots of quail and jackrabbits - really peaceful. My one complaint is regarding the bathroom power not working in the casita. I figured since it was an urgent matter calling would be easier than emailing, but the person who answered the phone did not seem to want to help. I said I was on one of their properties and needed assistance with the electricity not working. They replied, with a sigh, "I don't know which property you're staying at. What's the name of the property?" I replied with the address of the property since I didn't know the "name" offhand, and they responded, with a larger sigh, "That's not the name." I paused and then found the "name" finally - normally I would shrug this interaction off. But then when I explained the issue, I was asked if there was a man in the group with me who could help me find the electrical panel. It was one of the most unprofessional things anyone has said to me as a customer. I worked in customer service for almost a decade and have dealt with some frustrating humans and know it's a tough job, but I had a legitimate issue. Asking me to find a man to help me is not a helpful statement. There was no apology offered when I called this statement out. Eventually a handyman was sent out, and the handyman was very sweet and helpful. We received an email as well to further assist with the issue, and although the power still did not work when we checked out, they were able to offer alternatives. So, the issue did get worked out and we were ultimately very happy with the trip. It was unfortunate that I thought calling on the phone would help. I sincerely hope the person who answered my call understands that the comment made me feel foolish and embarrassed, which is not the vibe I'm looking for on vacation! Would I stay here again? In a heartbeat. But if there's an issue with anything, I'd send an email first.

Beautiful House in Perfect Location!

This was the perfect house to stay in to explore Joshua Tree National Park. The park entrance was very convenient to the house. The house itself was lovely. The beds were comfortable with plenty of extra bedding. There were lots of towels for both the bathroom and the outdoor hot-tub. The hot-tub was perfect after a day of hiking in Joshua Tree. The kitchen was well stocked and had pantry staples provided (coffee, oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, dish soap, sponge, etc.). The house was very clean and check-in and check-out was easy and clearly explained. The views from the house were so beautiful and we saw lots of wildlife (birds, rabbits and even coyote!) right from the back windows.

Excellent!

We were five retired single gal-pals and one couple. The house was perfect and we would certainly rent it again. We loved the propane firepit, the hot tub, the nature trail right out the back gate and the opportunity to star gaze. The beds were exceptionally comfortable! The kitchen was well stocked for a vacation rental, but it needs to improve its selection of pots and pans to support larger groups like ours. We loved that the VRBO rental agency was extremely responsive and well organized; we would definitely rent from this same agency again! We also loved the fact that everything about the house (information, rules, instructions, suggestions) was available to all members of our group via an online app which we downloaded to our cell phones. In all this home made for an excellent experience.
