We absolutely loved our stay here. You cannot find a more special, well-designed, gem of a property anywhere else in Lone Pine. The views were magnificent, the house is unique and thoughtful, and the outdoor tub and rocks right outside the door made for hours of entertainment with our kids.

Everything was amazing! We went hiking and mountain bike riding. Made delicious dinners in a beautiful well stocked kitchen. The beds were super comfy. Spent mornings and evenings relaxing on the couch or the deck enjoying the spectacular view. Our dogs had a great time as well. We will be back! Thank you Joost!

Our family Thanksgiving vacation turned out fantastic thanks to the beautiful East Wind Property. The host Joost was amazing, friendly and welcoming. We loved sitting out on the front patio watching the sunrise, the sunset and the stars as well moon at night. The place itself was well decorated and very relaxing. Sitting by the fire with the large folding glass windows looking out at the Eastern Sierra was ideal and one of the key features we loved. Also listening to the farm live that surrounds the property was also a highlight. Far enough out of town to relax and access to a plethora of trails. We would stay here again and highly recommend the place.

Very nice!

Fun , creative living space. Very comfortable furnishings, sheets, towels etc. Amazing views!!. Easy to town. Very quiet. Suggestion... Would be nice if knives were sharpened (super, super dull!) and maybe put the welcome instructions & Wifi info on a table top so a little more obvious when entering the house. Took us a while to find on the side of fridge not facing out. Would certainly come again.

Peaceful Oasis

We enjoyed every aspect of our all-too-brief stay: the stunning scenery, the dramatic surroundings, the extremely tasteful and cool decor and the cleanliness and comfort of the amenities. Joost and his dog Smoky were very welcoming and made sure we were settled in and comfortable. I highly recommend this unique and serene place.

Exactly as pictured a designer’s dream. Joost was super responsive and check in was flawless. The beds were super comfortable and the air conditioning was powerful (or stay was during summer). The location was ideal and provided for a perfect opportunity to experience the Alabama Hills numerous times a day under different light conditions as it was only 5 minutes away.

Incredible home, incredible view, incredible host: loved everything about it.

Joost was a fantastic and accommodating host—very responsive and helpful over VRBO messaging. Moreover, this place is exactly as it looks on the listing, which is to say MAGNIFICENT. The mountain views, the starlight, the sunrises and sunsets... it's unbelievable. And the interior design taste is impeccable. Highly recommend!

Three Days in Lone Pine

This property made for a memorable stay in Lone Pine. Stunning views from the front deck and all the amenities you'd ever need. This is a perfect location for access to Mt. Whitney Portal and for a drive to Death Valley. The host was helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Overall a unique and comfortable place to experience Lone Pine.

Not a Fan

I hate to leave a bad review but I believe others should be informed. First off, the place is gorgeous, however to me a stay is more than the beauty of a location. I felt 0 privacy during this stay. The first night we had an incident where two people showed up on our porch at 11pm. The next day I was present at the home and another person was on the porch outside. There is a camera in the backyard that is motion detected, that I discovered and wasn’t informed was there. A drone flew by the windows. We left but hadn’t checked out (it was 9:30 AM) and when on our way back the owner assumed we had checked out and had began cleaning basically forcing us to leave early. Joost was a nice guy and apologetic… but not worth the money I spent at all.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 May 2024
Thank you Whitney for the compliment on the property. Yes there was a lost guest knocking on the door which I profoundly apologized for. On the other hand you had a photoshoot , part of your wedding, in the property. I let that fly considering the "lost" guest. The Drone was not infront of the house and lasted 3 minutes. Cameras are on the property for your and my safety They do NOT look into the house for privacy reasons. You left in the morning , leaving the place in good shape .Thank you for that. I started cleaning and found takeaway food in the fridge which I disposed of . To my knowledge you left nothing behind. Later my cleaning lady mentioned that there was a champagne bottle in the fridge. In normal circumstance I leave all alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages in the fridge for the next guests. Up to now with out a problem. Mind you this is 3 days after you left that you are asking for the champagne bottle. I could only respond that I would need to ask the new guests if the bottle was still there. This upset you and resulted in a bad review.
