This property was clean, comfortable, and very enjoyable. There are plenty of seating options out back to relax and watch the beautiful desert view and spot the occasional quail and rabbit. Everything needed to cook is on hand. The game room was our favorite way to end each day after hiking in the national park nearby. No negatives whatsoever. The host was always responsive.

Our group had a fabulous stay! The house was very clean, well stocked, comfortable, and really met the needs of our party of eight. The backyard and patio was outstanding! More spaces than we could actually enjoy and views that have us all falling in love with the desert! Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed!

We had an amazing stay at this home. It’s very close to Joshua Tree National Park and located in a quiet, safe neighborhood. The backyard feels private and peaceful, with beautiful views.The house is well maintained, stylish, and clearly cared for with great attention to detail. Even on days we stayed in, there was plenty to enjoy. Our family loved the game room, especially the pool table, as well as the hot tub and hammock outside. The hosts also provided board games and books, and our kids happily spent hours playing Monopoly.We had three very relaxing and enjoyable nights. Thanks to Jimmy!
