Stayed here for a few nights to enjoy Joshua Tree park with our two kids aged 6 and 10. Everyone had space to spread out and we all enjoyed the home. Lovely stay!

Perfect spot to see the stars! We went into the park because that was our original plan, but ended up heading back to the house. The stars were so clear! Definitely perfect for our needs.The house was clean, well stocked with dishes and anything we may have needed. It was easy to access and it is a very large property. With great views during the day or night.

A really great property with lots to offer for such a reasonable price. We loved watching sunrise from the hot tub deck and cooling off in the soaking tubs during the heat of the day. Host was very friendly and helpful at all times. I was even able to get some great astrophotography at night with minimal light pollution.

We had a great stay! We used all of the available amenities from fire pit, to Jacuzzi, to hammocks. We would have liked to have known in advance that we needed to bring our own firewood, but other than that, we had everything we needed.

Great location for remote desert views but close to 29 Palms and Joshua Tree. Lots of seating options inside and out. Tasteful and fun decor. Well stocked, spacious kitchen. We were there during a heat bubble so made good use of siesta time on hammocks and in the comfort of the ac. Stars were fabulous in the dark skies of the back yard.

The property was beautiful. A 4 week drive car should be recommended, the dirt roads to the property can get sandy and a tow costs quite a bit.

Andrew was great to work with, very responsive and helpful. The property and home were wonderful. The road in from 29 Palms Hgwy didn't mark the access road as well as it could have been marked, however, Andrew provided helpful hints to help get us there. The location is central to visiting Joshua Tree, Yucca Valley, Twentynine Palms, and Pioneertown. I would recommend to others in a heart beat!

Has all the needed amenities and more. Peaceful and quiet, close to JT National Park. We brought the dog, I will not in the future and wouldn’t recommend due to the heat, the ground is, too hot to bring fur creatures anywhere. I would recommend the stay :)

Perfect place to decompress

My wife and I stayed here after the election and it was just what we needed to decompress and re-energize. The property is quite isolated, which is what we were looking for, but close to two entrances to Joshua Tree National Park. The hot tub is great and the decor in the place was charming and welcoming. We absolutely loved it.

Perfection in Twenty-Nine Palms

This place is even more lovely in person. Andrew’s home had everything we wanted to enjoy a relaxing time in the desert. He was easy to communicate with and our whole experience was flawless. I highly recommend this VRBO!

The host communicated well about the room/ stay. The house was clean and dog friendly. My boyfriend and I brought our dogs to stay and although the property itself was not enclosed, it was a large enough space where they could easily run around. The property was secluded enough to be peaceful while at the house. The house was very close to Joshua tree national park which is why we chose to stay there. It’s also close to pioneer town which we decided last minute to make a pit stop since we were close.
