A great spot to hang out with friends and take in the gorgeous desert views! Super close to trails, J tree, grocery stores, etc.

Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad you enjoyed the stunning desert views and the convenient location. Hope to host you again for another great getaway!
We enjoyed our stay and loved the view. The morning sunrises for meditation and yoga on the outside patio were breathtaking.

Thank you for this glowing review. Sound like a relaxing time you had at the property. Thank you for staying with us and hope to welcome you here again soon!
Great property with wonderful views. Follow Google Maps for more accurate directions, we followed Apple maps and got lost for a while ..)- Good housekeeping support and overall very happy.
My friends (and fur friends) had a wonderful stay at this awe-inspiring home. It was very spacious, cozy and accommodating for our large group. We enjoyed the 360-views around the home, which nicely overlooks the main highway. I would highly recommend this place!
The directions to get to the house through the neighborhood were a little confusing, but once we drove down the long driveway and saw where we’d be spending the next 3 days, our jaws were to the floor! The views and the expansiveness of the home were breathtaking.
The customer service for this site is extraordinary! Beautiful sunrises. Our entire family enjoyed their stay. We do a Christmas Experience for our family every year and this was it for 2023.

I'm so glad to hear that our customer service and the beautiful sunrises made your Christmas Experience memorable for the entire family! It warms my heart to know we could be a part of such a special occasion. If you ever decide to create more cherished memories, we'll be here to welcome you back with open arms!
We really enjoyed our time at the Summit house! The views and hot tub were our favorite.
The Game room was used by all ages. The drive to Joshua Tree park was short. We had trouble getting the entry code to work but it all worked out.
The house was in decent shape, the appliances worked great. The viewers were so awesome. especially from the hot tub. The guard rail in front of the picnic tables isn't glass, it's thin wire. Be mindful with children on the patio and stay close. Our family of 7 could not get a full night's rest, a few of us staying awake throughout the night due to the constant steps heard in the hall upstairs and the sounds of cupboards in the kitchen being open and closed. There are no screens on any of the sliding doors, expect flies to get inside. There are big stains on most of the carpet throughout the house. No pool table or card table like in the pictures.

Beautiful house with amazing views. Plenty of bedrooms and baths. We are a family that plays games together and having the pool table & ping png table was a plus.
Our only issue was ants, but spray was available.

Thank you for leaving us a review. It was our pleasure to host you. Looking forward to having you back!
The family came in from all over California. We played games, puzzles, and hiked Joshua Tree National Park.
The home was nice and warm as the weather was cold and very windy. The beds were comfortable.
Only thing missing were Wine Glasses which were delivered the next day.
This property showed signs of wear with older carpets and broken floor tiles.

We appreciate your feedback on the wine glasses and the property's wear, and we'll work on addressing these details to make future stays even better. We hope to host you again!
What a location, what a view and what a stay!!!
The memory that we will cherish forever.
Such an unique and incredible location, one of a kind.
Very neat and clean. Very spacious and we found everything we needed for all of us.
Main attraction was the patio and the view from there both during day and night.
I would recommend the stay for everybody who is looking for privacy and a stay with extended fanily and friends.
We planning to come back soon.

Thank you for your glowing review! We're thrilled that you had an out-of-this-world experience and that the location, views, and overall stay made lasting memories for you. It’s great to hear the patio was a highlight, and we appreciate your recommendation. We’d love to welcome you and your extended family and friends back soon!
Great location and awesome view. Very spacious layout and plenty of comfort. The Garage/Game Room were a superlative hit. Super venue for families with young kids.
The Electric Stove was tough to figure out and there seemed to be a lot of tile damage throughout. Also, need more towel racks for the bathrooms.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the great location, awesome view, and spacious layout! It sounds like the Garage/Game Room was a hit, especially for families with young kids—that's fantastic! I apologize for any inconvenience with the electric stove; I'll make sure to provide clearer instructions for future guests. Your feedback about the tile damage and the need for more towel racks is duly noted, and we'll work on addressing those issues promptly. Thank you for bringing them to our attention. If you ever decide to visit again, we'd love the opportunity to host you and make your experience even better!
The views from the homes balconies and windows are spectacular. I was in a group of 9 adults and the home felt perfectly spacious for us all to hang out as a group or split off. The beds were very comfortable along with the other furnishings. Lots of kitchen utensils at your disposal. This home allows for easy driving to a little bit of everything you could want to do in this area - Palm Springs, Joshua Tree, Pioneertown, it's close enough to it all! The directions from both Google and Apple maps weren't accurate to get to the home, but there were signs smartly placed in the neighborhood so you will figure it out. The coffee pot takes a long time to make a full pot so be sure to use the timer function for my coffee people out there. The home does show signs of wear and tear in certain areas like the plumbing (irregular hot water) and kitchen (floor and dishwasher). The last part of the driveway entering the home is a bit of a shock if you aren't prepared! It's a narrow stretch of dirt and concrete with sheer slopes on either side. We were in a bigger SUV and drove over it many times so everyone got over it eventually, but it is scary if you're from a place as flat as were I'm from! The only rooms lacking in homey decor were the bathrooms, every other space feels cozy and clean. This place provided everything I could ask for and more from a desert mountain view home, I would happily return again!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear the home exceeded your expectations and that our team was able to go above and beyond for you. It truly means a lot to know you felt well taken care of. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another amazing stay!
The view of the valley is really stunning and the house is big. However, it’s a dated property and for the price paid I was expecting some luxury elements that were missing (or maybe shampoo and body wash in the second bathroom at least)
Had the most amazing stay and cannot wait to visit again! The views can't be beat, and the hosts and communication were A+. The house is equipped with more amenities than we even had time to enjoy and the view truly is breathtaking. Will definitely be returning!!
Was very happy with how close this was to Joshua Tree and how amazing the view is! Took a star off since the house had a few damage everywhere (cracked tiles, broken screens for windows, stains on carpets, missing knobs on the oven) host was responsive for questions though!
The property is perfect for a family reunion or friends’ vacation. The daytime views are spectacular and night skies amazing for star viewing. It is convenient to Joshua Tree National Park and Palm Springs. The house has a well equipped kitchen and outdoor grill with multiple places to spread out for meals and socializing. The bedrooms are nicely spaced out and very private. We didn’t want to leave. It is well maintained and managed. We would love to return some day.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We strive to provide a 5-star experience for all our guests, and we're sorry to hear that we fell short during your stay. Our team will be reaching out to learn more about your experience and explore how we could have made your visit exceptional.
