Great Place!

We did a quick 2-night stay on our way from California to Missouri. Our daughrer (has a one-year old) and her husband joined us. Close to the park and town but far enough out that it is very peaceful. Roomy, clean, responsive host and convenient. What more could you want.Thanks Sati!!

Great house, great location!

We had an amazing few nights! The house was cozy without being cluttered, it was clean without being fussy, it had a ton of towels and blankets but still had lots of closet space for all our stuff. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you might need and there’s grocery stores 10 minutes away. So glad we came here for our memorable trip!

Relaxing Getaway

We had a lovely stay over Memorial Day. Our group of 4 adults and 3 kids had plenty of space and enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor spaces. The proximity to the National Park made it easy to go one on a morning hike, then relax in the afternoon. The well-appointed kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The hot tub was amazing!!

Great desert getaway

We really enjoyed this house for our week-long getaway in Joshua tree. The house was comfortable, cozy and peaceful. We enjoyed the backyard shade in the mornings and front porch shade in the afternoons. We grilled and ate outside. We soaked in the hot tub. The property was very quiet which was lovely. The kitchen had everything we needed, the living room was comfortable. There is a ping pong table in the garage that we never used, but it looked super fun. Nice trees and plants around the property. Close location to town with great restaurants and fun shops and close to Joshua Tree National Park entrance which made it easy to go hiking at various times of the day throughout the week. I would highly recommend.

Lovely house right near Joshua Tree Park

Well stocked and comfy house, close to park and town. The beds were great and the hot tub was fantastic after a day of hiking. The dirt road is a little rough so if you arrive at night, take your time but it was easy to find. Owner was responsive when we had a question. As described in the listing. Highly recommend it.

I rarely rate properties anymore because of the pressure some owners place on giving them a perfect rating. Certainly not with Sati! Her home really is a 5 and she was very accessible and helpful. The location was perfect for driving into the park early and enjoying easy parking and few people on the trails. And the hot tub was a delight. Thank you, Sati!
