We are so happy you enjoyed the property and all the amenities. I am so glad you mentioned the mini park. It is so cute and pretty with the mix of Pine Trees and Joshua Trees.
This house was amazing for our family of four. The backyard was a dream and we couldn’t have been more happy. Skip and Monica are amazing! We will definitely be keeping an eye out for their properties when we come back.
The place has everything you need. Backyard was bigger than we were expecting. Our host messaged us before and after our stay and communicated if we need anything. Everything was great!
The House was very clean and inviting. The outdoor space was perfect for the kids to swim and play games. Very close to Joshua Tree. You can really see the Milky Way from the backyard. Skip and Monica were wonderful to work with and gave lots of local recommendations.

We are so happy you had a great stay and enjoyed the location, pool and the well stocked kitchen. We love hosting and love corresponding with guest so they feel comfortable. We like giving recommendations on things to do and see.
Yes it is Lovely house and it looks like the pictures which I hear is rare. A magical place with a Joshua Tree in the center of the yard bordering the pool. A hidden gem. Thank you for discovering Hidden Gold.
This place was absolutely amazing! It was incredibly clean, comfortable, and we truly loved everything about it. The hosts thought of everything to make it feel like a home away from home. We cannot wait to come back for the 4th time. Highly recommend!

Monica and Skip were exquisite hosts! I rented the property to put up my wedding party and give them a comfortable place to stay. Not only was the property beautiful, not only were my guests comfortable, but Monica and Skip really went the extra mile for my guests. I took the opportunity to take a dip in the pool during the weekend and it was just LOVELY! Highly recommend!!

Thank you Jessica. It was a pleasure to have you and your guests stay with us. We appreciate you.
Skip and Monica were lovely hosts. Any concerns or issues that arrose were quickly addressed by them during the visit. The property was like something from a dream. The pool in particular was a big standout for me and my party in this extremely hot summer. Speaking of, our hosts were very accommodating for our multiple guests that arrived throughout the week. Everyone had a beautiful time. 10/10 would stay here again!

Thank you for the great feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and the comfort of the home—it’s the perfect spot to relax after exploring nearby Joshua Tree. We’d love to host you again anytime for another easy, laid-back desert getaway!
This place has it all… look no further for a great desert escape that will leave you eager to plan your next stay. The house has all of the modern conveniences you will need, but also has that mid-century charm. Very clean and well-taken care of. The outdoor space is all you can ask for… huge pool and inviting spa (both immaculately clean), plenty of space to lounge, play, cook, and enjoy your time with friends and family. The hosts make your booking care-free with timely communication, clear instructions, and a willingness to accommodate your every need. We will definitely be back!

Thank you so much for the amazing review! We’re truly happy to hear you had such a fantastic stay at Hidden Gold Ranch House. It means a lot to us that you appreciated the cleanliness, location, and all the little details we work hard to provide for our guests.
Skip and Monica’s place is great! The pool area is amazing—lovely pool, hot tub, outdoor games, tables for dining, a fire pit, great views of the stars. The house was super well appointed. It had everything we needed and more. And it’s only 10 mins from the closest hike in Joshua Tree and maybe 25 from the main Joshua Tree (town) entrance.

This property is perfect. Pool and jacuzzi were great and there are tons of games to play in the large backyard. Beautifully landscaped with amazing Joshua Trees in the back and the front yard is beautiful too. The house has everything you could want to cook and the big screen TV in the living room was a real treat for us. It's huge.Thank you Monica and Skip for our wonderful anniversary trip. And thank you for the flowers. Awesome touch.

Thanks for the best review ever. We hope to host you again.
We had a wonderful time in this peaceful and well appointed home! Well stocked, nicely decorated and the outdoor spaces were wonderful! We really enjoyed the spa! The owners cared about the details and the guests comfort. When we had some issues with the pool heating they got right on it to make it all right. So close to Joshua Tree and the ones in the yard are huge., our little dog had a great time exploring the whole place! Thank you,great stay!
