Had a great stay! The property was well-maintained, and David was super responsive with any questions before/during our stay. The location is great, very private and beautiful views of the mountains. The new renovation connecting the main house with the bathroom was also a nice feature

Best Birthday Retreat

The place was amazing! I felt so free and at ease. The windows are so big to where you can see the sunset and sunrise. I love how the bathroom was not attached to the house. The bathtub and shower outside is DREAMY! They had everything you can think of. I will be returning! Don’t forget to stargaze at night and take a bath during sunrise!

Peace

The house is a comfort in the vastness of this very peaceful spot in the desert. David was incredibly kind and responsive. It was a short but very enjoyable trip! There is nothing to add as they are quite comprehensive in the description preparing you for your visit. What is felt is that there was a lot of love and hard work in creating this space. Thank you for a wonderful visit and time in Wonder Valley!

Relaxing and comfy!!

We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Our host was very attentive and available! He covered all the bases so we didn't have tons of questions. The desert house was exactly as presented and better! Loved the outdoor shower and soaking tub! The outdoor seating was so comfortable and perfect for sunrise and sunset! The floor to ceiling windows were also perfect for sunrise and sunset! We woke up to a gorgeous view of the sunrise shining in on us! We loved the 360 view and the tops of the mountains around. It was beautifully quiet and the stargazing was unreal. We loved the view the milky way and billions of stars overhead. The bed and indoor seating was very comfortable and cozy. The kitchen was well stocked and we grilled outside several nights. It was quite hot so we didn't try the fire pit but the grill and fire pit was well stocked with plenty of propane. We are already dreaming of returning to beautiful Wonder Valley!!

Simply gorgeous

I absolutely loved this property (so much so that I started researching properties for sale in the area). The sunrise and sunset views from the property were just stunning and the home had everything necessary for a cozy, comfortable stay. From the soft furnishings to the beautiful bathtub, to the technology (wifi, speaker, television) everything worked beautifully. We couldn't figure out the heating system on the first day but David was wonderful in sending a handyman out to get it going while we were out hiking. I hope to stay at this property again in the summer (if I haven't bought a similar property myself by then)!

The solitude and views of the sunset, sunrise and stars were great. Thoughtful and well appointed, appreciated the furniture on both the east and west sides. The patio fireplace was great The bathroom is a stand alone building right behind the home. It is accessible via the cement patio and we enjoyed soaking in the bathtub. It is all very new and very clean. We'll go back again The directions given by the owner contemplated coming for the west. Which makes sense. We came from the east and it was pretty simple.

So that's what quiet sounds like . . .

This adorable little place is very secluded and a nice getaway to reset your nervous system. Located away from other properties and city noise and lights, it is a great place to experience some peace and quiet. Away from light pollution, you can see the stars that you may have forgotten were there. In fact, you may spend the evening in awe of the night sky and have a personal crisis questioning how our culture has divorced itself from the natural world and how you have missed out on everyday experiences of Mother Nature (you know, hypothetically that's possible, ahem). Anyway, the owners were responsive to questions, and the check-in process was easy. The bed is comfortable, and it was a nice place to unwind after hiking in Joshua Tree. We plan to stay here again.

i thoroughly enjoyed my weekend getaway in Joshua Tree. The place has all you need and it was clean, and updated. The communication prior to my stay with the owner was phenomenal. He didn’t leave any room for questions. I would definitely recommend and stay there again.

Cozy Twilight

Everything we experienced was true to the photos, but definitely more breathtaking in the flesh. Property was easy to get to with wide open views. Sunrises/sunsets was facing directly in the orientation of the house so you’ll never have a bad view! If you’re looking for a place to get away from people with modern amenities, this is the place to go!

Perfect quiet getaway

It is perfect quiet place for relax. It is not far from Joshua Tree, so you can spend day on the hiking trail and relax near camp fire in the evening, admiring stargazing. House is clean and packed with everything you may need. Kids even didn't turn on TV!=) They mostly turning on Bluetooth Speaker and played outside. They made s'more, played with rc cars or just get into the sleeping bags and wait till see the falling star. Want to say thanks again for providing place and woods for camp fire! It is so great to seat near fire, making s'more, slowly talking and looking at the stars! Hope to return there again and stay longer than just two days.

One of the best places I've stayed in Joshua Tree

David's place is a great place to go for some peace and quiet. The house is well stocked with a lot of amenities and was very clean and modern. David as a host was also very welcoming and communicative. It was super easy to see the sunrise, sunset, and the beautiful stars from the property. Highly recommend this place! Will definitely be back to this gem of a place. :)

Wonderful in Wonder Valley

We had an amazing time. It was such a special place. Really made you feel free from everything else going on in the world! David and Jill thought of everything from the outdoor shower to the fire pit and every cooking utensil you could want. We loved it and we can’t wait to go back again soon!

Amazing getaway

The place was amazing. It was a perfect place to unwind and be at peace. The bathtub was a perfect place to have a zen moment day or night. The outdoor shower was a huge confident boost for us two but that’s how we learn to grow. The bed felt soft and comfortable, the weight on the blankets on the bed really helped us to sleep. Having the option to have a propane fire pit or actual wood fire pit was a good idea. Interior design made it felt comfortable and relaxing. AC unit was spot on. Also the ability to sleep under stars, that is where the magic happens. It’s what make the desert getaway so unique. We would love to come back again soon.

A Wonderful Stay at Wonder Valley

We enjoyed the comfort of this lovely place, and so close to Joshua Tree National Park. David was responsive and friendly. We had the joy of seeing a full moon. It had not yet set at the sun rose. Incredible sunrises and sunsets. The mountains glow around you. We highly recommend this property for couples.
