Overall it was a very pleasant stay. My family and I really enjoyed a relaxing stay with shops and stores nearby. Great communication by the host Erin, she made sure we were well informed before and during our stay. The stars look beautiful from this location. The Yurtz are very rommy.

This was a fun and unique experience. Our one night was plenty though. It’s cheaper to buy your firewood before arriving. It was convenient to buy it onsite but you don’t get much for $10. I wish the outdoor lighting had not been so bright around the yurt and from the neighbors nearby.

We loved our stay. It was only one night but wish we could’ve stayed longer. Beds and sheets were comfortable. The shower at night felt amazing. The night sky and moonrise incredible.

Amazing and very unique place!

This adds a really special experience to a day or two in Joshua tree national park! You’re not in the park but you’re basically out in the desert and yet it has all the low-key luxury and convenience you need! A shower outside, yet private, a BBQ and a fire right underneath the stars! The yurt is super cute and pretty with all its details and the bed is comfortable! Erin sent out a lovely email in advance with some info and helped us during out stay with anything we needed! Hopefully gonna come back one day!

Our stay in the Joshua Tree desert yurt was absolutely unforgettable. My husband, son, and I were welcomed by Erin, who was an incredible host—warm, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The yurt itself was thoughtfully equipped, giving us the perfect balance of comfort and the rustic charm of camping. At night, the sky lit up with more stars than I’ve ever seen in my life—it was truly magical. If you’ve never stayed in a yurt before, I can’t recommend this experience enough. It’s the kind of adventure everyone should do at least once, and Joshua Tree is the perfect place to do it.
