Wonderful property. Great zones. Firepit, star gazing dome, pool and spa. The hosts were very helpful and communicative. House is spacious, well designed and stocked. Close proximity to the park. We hope to visit again next time in Joshua Tree area. Thanks for everything!

Our group had a fine stay here, but the house itself would benefit from a little more attention to detail -- the coffee maker was broken, the provided towels were stained, the propane in the grill was out, the batteries in all the flameless candles were dead, one of the lights in the main living area was not functional, etc. The layout is also a little weird, with an en suite bathroom on one side of the house and then the larger shared bathroom right next to the kitchen/open living room. It's clear that most of the thought and energy went to the outdoor space, which is quite nice. We especially appreciated the quality of the deck, outdoor seating, and pool/hot tub. With all the other rental options available in the area, though, we won't be returning to this one.
