Lovely bungalow close to Joshua Tree Park. Host was very responsive. Loved having coffee on the front patio each morning!
The place was absolutely spotless. Its decorated very nicely. It was a very comfortable and relaxing place to stay for a weekend exploring Joshua Tree.This is a home that we wished we would have booked longer to stay at just for the comfort and relaxating environment.The kitchen had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. The living room was set-up perfectly for relaxing and watching the largr screen tv.The host provided good information before checking in, so check in was effortless. They communicated back very quickly the couple of times we had a question.I like the privacy that came with the fence. The yard is done nicely in desertscape and is relaxing to sit outside.I have recommended this place to friends that are planning trips out to Joshua Tree.
This a great stay while visiting Joshua Tree. Close to west entrance of park, food and all nececities. Bungalow is updated and includes all the amenities. Highly recommended.

Great little house. Only minor flaw is that the kitchen lacked measuring cups and measuring spoons. Otherwise it's a fantastic property that is so thoughtfully presented!
Located within 5 minutes drive from the Joshua Tree National Park Visitor Center, this recently renovated bungalow is an ideal getaway. The unit features a somewhat compact but very functional kitchen, an extremely comfortable bedroom and shower in s bright, pristine bathroom. The co-hosts are among the most conscientious of any vacation site I’ve rented. Included are ample amenities such quality soaps, cookery, condiments and a keurig coffee maker. If you are seeking an optimal location to jump into the park, look no further!
We loved are stay and the snacks were great. It's winter and very 🥶 We couldn't get warm.
Would love to visit in summer, the cement floors would keep it cool. We froze in December so had to buy a small heater. Thank you!

I loved the extra touches like shampoo and lotion, etc. Condiments in the fridge, plenty of coffee games to play just awesome! Told friends, will be coming back!
Beautiful space, quiet area, responsive host. Best of all, there was hiking right out of the property, up the wash and into the rocks. We were told there were petroglyphs up there; next time we try to find them! This time, we were treated to observing the abundant quails and there mating rituals :) We will return!
We spent 5 days hiking and climbing peaks in the Park. This was a perfect basecamp - very close to the entrance in a neighborhood well off of the main highway through town. The kitchen was very adequately supplied with cookware. The big "plus" were all of the little extras - a good stock of paper plates, seasonings, condiments in the refrigerator, etc. The bathroom was very modern, clean and multiple soaps, etc. were already provided. The towels were thick and like new.
Bed was very comfortable and the area around the bungalow is quite dark at night so there is little "light" pollution. I would highly recommend this rental and would certainly stay there if visiting Joshua Tree in the future. 5-stars!
A most perfect stay for a couple nights. It was cozy, comfortable and appreciated all the little details including snacks and cold beverages. The kitchen had everything we needed including zip lock bags for our sandwiches that we packed to bring into the park. We highly recommend and will def it let return so we can make use of the outdoor shower!
