Pleasant desert house in great location.

We were there for the pleasant views and Joshua Tree National Park, and the house worked perfectly for us. It is well equipped with basic necessities. The property is a bit desert quirky, and accurately described on the VRBO site. The owner if very responsive and helpful.

Desert Paradise Indeed!

This beautiful little house has great amenities, the right amount of privacy and ambiance, fantastic views, and all the vibe you could need. We come to JT to get some peace and clarity, and this is definitely the right place to do that. The proximity to the park is an excellent perk. We will definitely come back here.

Good stay

Stephanie was super responsive and was very helpful leading up to our stay. House looks as pictured in the post and kept us warm during the cold winter! You can tell someone lives in the house as there were dog beds, filled medicine cabinets, etc. but overall for the price, was a great stay! Cute neighborhood too.

Desert Vibe

Our host, Steph, was great… she stayed in touch to confirm that things were going well; excellent communication. The desert home was perfect with a tremendous view of the surroundings and nice outside seating/viewing. If you’re looking for an authentic desert retreat with nice amenities, this place fills the bill.

Peaceful place to connect with the desert and wildlife

Outdoor living space was glorious. It was relaxing to sit outside with a cup of coffee in the morning to sit feeding and watch the wild life. Coming back after the day out to the evening sunset with the breeze and waiting for the stars. We couldn’t ask for more. The inside space when we decided to come in was cozy and comfortable. Thanks Stephanie we had a great time.

This place felt like a home!

Steph was wonderful at communicating and letting us know what we can do for our family gathering. We all felt right at home in this wonderful and cozy home that she has opened up to us. The view off the porch was to be savored as well as the open spaces inside. We cooked all our meals on the grill outside and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thanks and we hope that others have as much fun as we did.
