My family and I had a wonderful time at this property. We loved the space and how clean it was. Our dogs loved exploring the large yard and we enjoyed relaxing in the cowboy tub after a day of exploring Joshua Tree.

If you're planning a return visit, it's worth looking up Hi-Desert Dwellings online for additional information and available booking options. We appreciate your stay and would love to host you again!
Everything about this house was excellent. The inviting and open floor plan with plenty of windows. Very comfortable beds and furniture through the home. The yard is very large and my dog absolutely loves it. The area is quiet and relaxing. This was by far one of my favorite vacation rental that I have ever stayed in.
I would definitely stay here again. The large fenced in lot is great if you have dogs. Everything was clean and comfortable. Exceeded my expectations. Perfect for a quiet, relaxing few days.
For our visit, it was just as described, clean, 2-bedrooms with a large dining area and huge outdoor, fenced yard. Our dog loved scouting the perimeter, but note that there are holes in the bottom of the fence that allow rabbits in, and possible small pets out. The home could've used a few more cooking amenities, like extra pots, pans, utensils, and trays. It's a fairly new renovation, and everything still looks good, so hopefully the owners stay on top of it. Hosts were easily contacted for permission to have a couple dinner guests. It was amazingly quiet and we had views for miles. And the stars at night...
Our stay in Joshua Tree was perfect. The house was freshly cleaned and ready when we arrived. The website gave clear instructions to check in and out as well as great recommendations for things to do and where to eat around the house. Everything we needed was provided, as well as extra linens and towels if we needed them. Highly, highly recommend booking your stay here next time you’re out in Joshua Tree.
