Enjoy some of the best starriest night skies and purply-pink sunsets in CA. We hope you love our Mojave home as much as we do!

About the host

Hosted by Marissa Kozma

Host profile image

Hello!

My name is Marissa, and traveling (in VRBOs especially) is my absolute favorite! My experiences as a guest have been nothing but positive. I live with my husband Parker and we are originally from Toronto/Charleston, SC and Dallas. We are excited to share our home (and the Mojave) with you!

Why they chose this property

We are in a prime location — about a five-minute drive to the popular west entrance of Joshua Tree National Park and a short walk to the center of town with its shops and eateries. It is relatively quiet on a paved street in a residential neighborhood but we still see a lot of wildlife and can access local hiking trails! Nature is in our backyard so if you're looking to get away from it all (but not THAT far away from it all), this is the place to be!

What makes this property unique

Our home was built in 1952 and is one of the remaining original homes in the quirky town of Joshua Tree! It is historic and has a lot of character, which we have embellished since we moved in. We love color and antique finds so this is the opposite of the ultra-modern white boxes you typically see in the desert built by LA transplants. Our guests have said that it's better than the pictures!
