The house is perfect for a family with kids, or just someone that has a dog (or both!). The location is a perfect distance from the park and downtown. The house is amazingly decorated, and has absolutely everything you could need to cook with in the kitchen. The backyard is fantastic, and has comfortable chairs to sit out and enjoy the beautiful night sky and weather. We could have easily stayed another week and still not seen all the great things.
Check in was super simple, and the hosts are wonderfully responsive (and we only had simple questions, zero issues).
My family would love to stay there again in the future, as it was the perfect combination of size, amenities, and location.
First family trip to Joshua Tree. Perfect sized house for us, hot tub a big plus!! Very conveniently located near the western entrance to the park. Great star viewing at night while making smores in the fire pit. Quite comfy with everything we needed. Would definitely stay again!
We had an incredible time relaxing at the beautiful property. We went on hiles nearby and enjoyed cookibg meals, playing Ping pong, watchibg DVDs (great collection!) and using the fanstastic hot tub. Enjoyed the outdoor área safely fenced for our toddlers. Thank you so much for a magical time!
We loved our stay at La Mirada House, and look forward to returning! Lynn & Paul were great hosts - and we appreciated the thought and care that they put into every aspect of their home and what one might need when staying there. The hot tub - fabulous. The fireplace - perfect. The ping pong table - a great treat! Thanks again!
Clean and quiet. Everything we needed for meal prep was there - even sharp knives - something that many other hosts seem to overlook! Wish we had booked during the new moon phase to fully appreciate the stars.

The property was well appointed in an eclectic way, though with older furnishings. All appliances worked properly and the house and amenities were very clean. Very clear instructions prior to our arrival and a house manual with information and instructions for our check out. I would stay here again.
The house was exactly as listed on VRBO! It had everything we needed, was comfortable and nicely accommodated 4 adults and 2 children, ages 10 &11.
The neighborhood was quiet and a short distance to the West entrance of the park. The ping pong table in the garage and the hot tub in backyard were enjoyable amenities. I would definitely recommend this place.
The house was just the right size for our family gathering: me and my husband, my sister and her 2 kids ages 9 and 6. We were close to the National Park and had an exciting scavenger hunt with the kids. The house had everything we needed for our stay - towels for the hot tub, ping pong, games, cards, and so much more. We loved this little house.
Last minute decision for an overnighter. Found this little gem. Great communication from the start. Very cute place with everything you need. It was super windy so we didn’t get a chance to use the fire pit or hot tub but we look forward to it next time! We brought our dog and he enjoyed the fenced yard. Beds and bedding were
First time visitor to Joshua Tree and this was a great location to access the park and local establishments. Can't say enough about the host's communication. It was in the 30's the night we arrived and there was no heat due to the pilot light being out. They sent a video showing how to light the pilot light on their home immediately and we had heat! We would stay there again when back in the area.
We enjoyed our stay here! Everything was comfortable, and the host was responsive to one small problem. Nicely decorated, quiet neighborhood, and well appointed kitchen.We'll be back!
Perfect for our needs w a dog. No pet fee was awesome. Jacuzzi and star gazing cots were sweet. Didn’t get to the ping pong but we’ll def be back. Location was super convenient and quiet. Late checkout was so appreciated .Thank you to the host, Lynn. One of my best VRBO experiences
The La Mirada house was perfect for us and our visit to Joshua Tree. Our daughter and her toddler son joined my husband and me for a few nights and we had plenty of space, and yet the house still felt cozy and comfortable. The kitchen was equipped with all we needed for meal preparation. The hot tub was a nice bonus and easy to use. We loved our time at the La Mirada House and look forward to returning.
We loved our stay in the house! Everything is immaculately clean, and the kitchen is well-stocked. The beds are comfortable, and the rooms are light and bright. We would definitely stay here again!
I came from the UK to meet my family here and we had a lovely time. The house was a relaxed and comfortable place to stay with lots of space for everyone. It had everything you might want, much more so than many other places I’ve stayed. It is a short drive to shops and a short walk to a beautiful nature preserve.
The outside space is also very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.
My husband and grown sons took our annual family trip and stayed here. We loved the location, view from back yard, all the various birds we saw and the peace & quiet. A nice surprise was the ping pong table in the garage made for some fun! Home was well stocked. We look forward to staying here in the future.
The house was very clean and welcoming as well as extremely well appointed. If you want a very comfortable, home feel while traveling, this was it. Lynn and Paul made the process very easy and at the end of a long day at Joshua Tree, it was lovely to come home too!
Beautiful and spotless house in Joshua Tree. Great location too!!
This is a beautiful home to stay in..Its sooo clean and there's everything you will need there. My husband and I and our best friends spent the night there...couldn't wait to stargaze...unfortunately the ONE night we stayed, it was cloudy!!! So disappointed..only night of the week it was cloudy. Oh well, no control over that. But we had a GREAT time at the house anyway..will DEFINITELY go back there for another try at stargazing!! Book it...you'll love it!!! Paul and Lynn are excellent hosts and very friendly and accommodating. We loved playing ping pong in the garage too!! The hot tub was also great with or without stars. Very very clean..dont look at any other homes...book this one!!! PS....I never leave reviews..but this one I HAD TO!!!!! its decorated so cool too!!! Loved it!!!
What a great place to stay and enjoy the beauty of Joshua Tree. We flew to LA to visit my daughter who is going to college there, rented a car and drove to Joshua Tree. This place is particularly suitable for people who are flying from afar, as it comes stocked with everything you need, including coffee and popcorn. Beds and pillows are extremely comfortable, too. The hot tub and ping-pong table are fun as well. Thank you for a great stay!
The property met all our needs. We had two adults and two 15 year old boys with us. We loved the jacuzzi and ping pong table! Super fun for us during our stay.
