Awesome place! A lot of fun games and interesting CD collection - we kept ourselves entertained after long days in Joshua Tree. Great collection of books in the writers cabin - it'll be interesting to see once the cabin has been completed. Highly recommended as a nice base camp for exploring the area.

Beautiful and cozy stay

We loved our 3 night stay! The owners were great with communication, and the home was cozy and great location. We were grateful for a heater that worked and one of the most comfortable beds we’ve ever slept in! Perfect location for entry to JTNP.

Casa Agave

The two of us and our doggo had a much needed chill weekend even with typical high desert summer temperatures. Our hosts Beth and Milo pointed us to their Joshua Tree “Casa Agave” and we quickly settled in comfortably with everything we needed at hand.We love the local “Rancho Relaxo” vibe and look forward to a return.

Cozy spot

This is a cute and cozy little spot to land in Joshua tree. Looks just like the pictures. Great yard size outback with spots to relax. Also great and well appointed kitchen for cooking. I wasn't super excited about the neighborhood as a solo female traveler however.

Perfect Desert Getaway

We had a blast staying in Joshua Tree. The house was just as described and pictured. Everything was neat and tidy and adorably decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed the hammock and swing outside as well as the close proximity to everything we wanted to do in town as well as Joshua Tree National Park. The hosts were quick to answer any questions we had and everything went off without a hitch. I would absolutely recommend this property!

Great weekend stay

We stayed for two nights and were there to race the Joshua Tree Half Marathon. The place was clean and comfortable. The beds were very comfortable. The only thing I would say is to make sure you are comfy with your travel buddies, because the "hanging out" area is in one room and the only bathroom is in the other bed room. So, if someone has to go in the middle of the night, they'd need to go through someone else's bedroom. Other than that little quirk, the place was cozy, cute and comfortable.

Great Joshua Tree Getaway (especially with dog)

The first thing that strikes you is the lot, fully enclosed 0.5 acre, which as we had a large dog, was great. House is 2 bedrooms. Note that one bedroom is part of the Tv area. There is one bathroom, with great shower/bath that can only be accessed through the other bedroom. Overall house is bright and clean, with galley style full kitchen open to the communal area with decent size table for eating and generally hanging out. House heating is great, which is needed around this time of year. Back yard faces away from the morning so provides a nice shady area for breakfast, also has a fire pit which is nice to sit around after dinner. The location is terrific on a quite area around 3 miles outside the town. Town has a few restaurants, coffee shops and grocery stores etc.

Great house close to Joshua Tree

This is a great little house that has almost everything you might need. We used it as a base to explore the national park. The only minor issues we experienced with the VRBO were the supplies/ingredients provided were pretty disorganized and looked a bit old (ex. the charcoal bag had only a few pieces left and we ended up having to go out and buy a new bag). In addition, the air conditioner and swamp cooler are very loud but needed on to keep the place at a reasonable temperature. We didn't mind this but it could bother people who like quiet at night and need the AC on. Other than these minor things, everything else one could wish for was present and we had a great time in Joshua Tree. The house is exactly as described, the owners were responsive and helpful, and the documentation included all of the required information. Overall I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking to spend some time in Joshua Tree.

Perfection! (insert chef kiss fingers here)

Have you ever been somewhere and the smell of it just put you at ease? Made your shoulders relax and your whole body sighs? Well, this is that place. From the hammock under the tamarisk tree for napping to the star gazing at night this property is the reset you need. We had so much fun here. It is close to Joshua Tree National Park, close to Pioneertown (Pappy and Harriets) and the restaurants and the cafes nearby are wonderful. We popped by Vons on the way in and grabbed some groceries for lunches and snacks. Oh! Wine under the stars at night...heaven. I would recommend this little oasis to anyone staying in the area.

Great Stay

We had a nice time at the Casa Agave house (two couples). We enjoyed sitting around the fire pit every night and looking at the stars. The kitchen had everything we needed. It’s a short drive away from the national park. From the pictures, we didn’t realize that the bathroom was attached to one of the bedrooms which made access to the bathroom for those in the second bedroom a little awkward at night. But overall, we would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing Getaway

Casa Agave was a beautifully decorated home and the hosts added so many convenient special touches to make our trip stress free, such as a water cooler to fill up bottles before hiking, a well stocked kitchen, bathroom amenities, and tips/recommendations on local activities and eateries. The hosts were easy to communicate with and quick to respond.

Amazing!

This property is clean and the amenities/extras were much appreciated. I loved introducing my young daughters to Monopoly and Clue. The tent and hammock were awesome and nothing is more relaxing then playing songs from their turn table. I forgot sandwich bags, needed a band aid and it was all conveniently their. This house is stocked with everything you and your family will need!

Spring Break 2021

Casa Agave is beautiful and perfect for our family spring break. It was our first vacation since Nov 2019 and it was very safe and clean. My children enjoyed, the yurt, fire-pit for s’mores and the beautiful big tree in the backyard. Hubby enjoyed breaking in the bbq girl. The boho vibes in the decor were amazing! Beth was great at communicating every step of the way and answered questions promptly and thoroughly. It was our first Vrbo rental but not our last. We would love to visit and stay at Joshua Tree again soon. Thank you Beth for the awesome stay in your beautiful home 💕
