It was such a great experience glamping under the stars. The host, Erin, was so very helpful communicating the check in process and even gave us extra bedding and sheets without us having to ask! The only thing was the toilet and the shower could use a little fixing up. Otherwise, our whole family really enjoyed the experience!

Fun experience for the family! Glamping with wonderfully comfortable beds, amenities in working condition (shower, bathroom, bbq) and basic necessities (plates, silverware, bbq equipment, etc) thoughtfully provided. Super nice host (provided multiple timely communications and met us on the property as promised). Joshua Tree national park is about 20 min drive. The Big Blue yurt sleeps six comfortably and was spacious enough even with all our gear.
