Nice desert home

This house definitely makes you feel like you’re in the desert. The house is spacious and clean. There’s a ping pong table in the garage and a hot tub in the backyard. It’s minutes from Joshua Tree National park. Yucca Valley is about a 10 minute drive and has tons of restaurants and stores(Walmart, Walgreens, McDonald’s, Starbucks, Del Taco, etc.). The host was helpful and responsive when we needed something. This is a great location for the desert feel while still being close to a larger town.

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 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.
