The photos present an impression of a fairly small place with a shared pool and tiny bedrooms. It's not that at all.
The property is quite large: the pool isn't shared so you have it all to yourself, there's also gigantic covered hot tub (not pictured), an outdoor kitchen, two separate shaded lounging areas, and an outdoor bar with a stereo and fridge. Everything is incredibly richly decorated with the fruits of a lifetime's collecting of local art and some delightful kitsch too.
Inside, the master bedroom is large and comfortable, the kitchen is equipped with everything you need *including sharp knives* which has to be a first. The second bedroom is much smaller but has its own en suite and plenty of storage. It's also guarded by a collection of Native American life-size statues and art.
Nothing is particularly new, though everything worked just fine. My tastes lean towards the quirky and eclectic, lived-in style and I found it perfect. Those looking for pristine, white, international Ikea minimalism will want to go elsewhere.
The hosts (Ron and Theresa) are lovely people and made us very welcome; I'm not sure how to describe their approach other than to say it's a blend of the best bits of a couple renting out their vacation home and a professionally-run business. They're on text/cell and full of personal recommendations.
You're only minutes from Joshua Tree, it's a great home base from which to explore the park. Local stores have everything.
Highly recommended.
