LOCAL ADD-ON EXPERIENCES

From sound baths and in-home massages to stargazing under some of the darkest skies in Southern California, we've handpicked local vendors to match whatever mood you're in. Book a personal chef for a lazy night in, saddle up for a horseback ride, or take a guided hike through the National Park or other local trails. However you want to spend your time here, relaxing or adventuring, the desert (and our favorite locals) has you covered. Once your reservation is confirmed, let us know you are interested and we will connect you!



Guest Access:

The property, house and garage is yours to roam and relax.



Getting Around:

We recommend traveling by car to explore Joshua Tree for maximum flexibility, as ride sharing services are unreliable. If you prefer not to drive, the local taxi service Lucky 777 is a dependable option. Our property offers free parking for up to four vehicles to ensure your car is kept secure during your stay.



Other Things to Note:

3:00PM Check-In: We'd love for you to check in before 8pm so you have plenty of daylight to settle in and get comfortable before dark.



HVAC: Central heating and air conditioning are provided throughout the home to keep guests comfortable in every season.



Pets Allowed: The yard is NOT fully fenced. We welcome dogs for a fee of $30 per dog, with a maximum of 2 dogs per stay. Please note that no other pets are permitted at this property.



Kitchen: There is a full size fridge available for all guests located in the garage. Do not cut directly on the counter tops. Please use a cutting board. The fridge is a mini fridge, for stays over 2 night we will give access to the garage with an additional full fridge.



Cowboy Pool: Only available during the May, June, July, August and September.

Guest Policy: We only allow the number of guests listed as the maximum occupancy for this property, so any additional day guests must be requested and approved in advance. No extra overnight guests are permitted beyond those included in your reservation.



Watch your Step: This desert land holds onto bits of its past, so you may spot the occasional rusty object or piece of glass in the yard, please wear shoes anytime you're outside. You'll also be sharing the landscape with local snakes and scorpions. They want nothing to do with you, so if you see one, just back away calmly and quietly



Wood Burning Fires: We do not permit wood-burning fires anywhere on the property at any time, including in fire pits or fireplaces, due to the high risk of wildfire in our area. This policy is strictly enforced for the safety of our guests, neighbors, and the surrounding landscape,.



Desert Critters: Please keep doors closed while entering and exiting, curious critters will let themselves in given the chance. Desert wildlife is part of what makes this area special, expect sightings of jackrabbits, tortoises, roadrunners, quail, and lizards. You may also spot coyotes, rattlesnakes, scorpions, or occasionally a bobcat or mountain lion. Most just want their space, so it's best to give them yours.



Camera/ Decible Monitor: This property has forward-facing exterior security cameras, but there are no cameras anywhere inside the home. We also use noise decibel monitors indoors to help avoid disturbing neighbors. These only measure sound levels and never record audio.



Interaction with Guests:

We like to respect our guest’s privacy, so you won’t see too much of us. We will be available to answer any questions and to make your stay more enjoyable.

Had a great stay here with my best friend. The place is very well equipped and the area is safe, the couch is a bit strange to sit on but not a big deal.

Perfect quick getaway

This was the perfect getaway location for my friends and me. We had a perfect view of the sunset and sunrise and it was overall a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We even had an owl visit us during our stay which was really neat to see!

Great spot

This is a wonderful home! The location is perfect as it is very close to town center. The backyard is spacious and the bedrooms and common areas are cozy. Perfect place if you’re looking to relax between trips to the park/town. The check-in and check-out processes were very easy as they provide all info needed virtually and in a timely manner. Would definitely stay here again!

Overall met expectations. Cowboy pool was a nice reprieve from heat, good privacy in backyard, AC was welcome. Fine for exploring National Park and surrounding area with a homebase to cook (very basic kitchen amenities) and refrigerate. Not as polished as pictures show, but living space has some neat vintage decor.

Lots of bugs

From the moment we entered the house to the day we left we killed at least 5 bugs. When we first got to the house there were bugs all over the kitchen sink and window and when I went to wash my hands in the master bathroom a huge spider fell into the sick and almost landed in my hands. Disgusting. Be aware of lots of hidden bugs behind curtains or in the puzzle box. Other than the bugs issue the backyard is completely open to the neighborhood. There’s no gate or warning if anyone walks into the backyard. The house itself has plenty of pantry items though all very scratched up but it’s missing a lot of little nice to have things like tissues, hand lotion, and fly swatters.

Cute JT house

Overall we enjoyed our stay! Sleep wasn’t the best in the lower bed, maybe it was the pillows and I could have used a dimmer in the kids room for putting the baby down and / or a nightlight … but other than that we enjoyed our time. It was windy so we weren’t able to really enjoy the hot tub, it’s far from the back door entrance but it really has the best view on a calm day. Great neighborhood, centralized with hiking just out the door! Will be back.

Great family-friendly spot in Joshua Tree; Super close to the park

We loved staying here on our recent visit to Joshua Tree. The house had all we needed. If you're out and about all day at the park or other spots this is the perfect place to have as home base. The furniture is getting a little worn and not the most comfortable though this is secondary given the house's close proximity to the park and other amenities.

Convenient stay next to Joshua Tree

This house is located an east drive to grocery stores and the park. The hot tub never got quite hot enough and the hot water in the house ran out quick with 6 of us showering and taking baths. My kids were disappointed that the tee pee in the picture was not there but they loved the backyard and it made for a great spot for our Easter egg hunt.
