Thank you s much. Your house was exactly the retreat I needed. I couldn't have been more comfortable and at ease if it were my own home. The artwork and attention to detail are absolutely lovely and the energy of the place is magical and peaceful. between your hospitality and the great hikes, I am rejuvenated!

We got to leave the smoggy, frenetic,sensory overloadedness of LA for the clear air, serenity and starry starry nights of Joshua Tree... without loosing the comforts of home. What an amazing home - a dinner by candle light and star light on your deck, hours of laughter (and libations) by the fire, a lazy lovers nap in the hammock. Fabulous taste, total synchronicity of colors and vibes. Cool touches (cd's, reading, environmentally friendly everything! Whitman said "Peace is beautiful" This peaceful home is beautiful and we had a beautiful stay here Gracias!
