About the host

Hosted by John and Bob

Host profile image

Originally from suburban Philadelphia we moved to Los Angeles in 1997, and now, Morongo Valley. Bob is an Actor, and John works in marketing. We have three children and 6 grandchildren. We LOVE travel and have been fortunate enough to travel the world! We've been renting places over the years, and always said: "If we, owned this place, we'd...." ~ so hopefully we have tended to the details that were important to us!
We are thrilled to be introducing people to this area that we fell in love with a few years ago. We visited Morongo Valley in 2020 during the pandemic to watch the Perseus Meteor shower. It was amazing ~ but it gave us a chance to explore the area so rich with artisan's shops, cafes, "Pioneertown" and the hundreds of interesting and unique venues that make this area magical. We were hooked!
We hope you enjoy our home. It reflects who we are and what we love.

Why they chose this property

The views and the nighttime sky - BREATHTAKING! The perfect location! Quiet and secluded, but close to everything. The property is in the quiet hamlet of Morongo Valley. You are a short drive from Joshua Tree National Park, Palm Springs. Close to 4 Casinos offering great food bargains and entertainment.
The location is perfectly central to the area ~ and only minutes from Interstate 10. It makes for the perfect LA getaway!

What makes this property unique

This property was a stamping station for mining in the early 1900's. There are still some remnants of that operation on the property.
The home sits alongside The Morongo Creek (now a creekbed) which you can hike either way for miles through the canyons. It is a desert experience. We have seen Coyotes, Mountain Lions, Bears, Longhorn sheep, bobcats, roadrunners, and lot of other wildlife.
A simple walk around the block is like hiking a trail along the dirt roads.
The area is rich with wonderful neighbors - many the 4 legged kind! There is a horse ranch around the corner, and you will see goats, donkeys, and people on horses throughout the sparsely populated neighborhood.
