This is a very special place to stay, large enough to comfortably fit a large family, or in my case a very special getaway for 2.We arrived and everything was ready, spotless and already had the heat on. This is February!The atmosphere is very Desert Chic, wall to wall glass so you can't miss the breathtaking desert views or the night stars.This is a winner and we will come back.

Liked: Communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
A very unique space, very spacious, a great large piece of land and spectacular view, also very good location near town, but the two houses were filthy, old sheets, towels, everything felt old and dingy, etc. A great party house for a large group going to a festival, but not the right fit for me and my family at that price point.
Host was super responsive throughout the entire process from booking, service needs while there, and the deposit refund. The property is exactly as advertised and only 7 minutes from basically anything you need.
Without a doubt, this is one of the most enchanting rental properties I've had the joy of experiencing. The property is clearly cared for with great love and attention. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a desert getaway with friends or family.
We loved our stay. We had two adults and one child sleeping there, with several others in our group staying in nearby properties. We loved the warm, expansive, beautiful, and artistically unique space. The sunrises through the windows are unbelievable. The kitchen has everything you need, and the living areas allow everyone to relax comfortably.
This was my second time staying at this location. My friends and I love the decor and the kitchen. We spent a lot of time by the fireplace this year and it was just what we needed at this time of year. The instructions to get in were easy to follow and Cody checked in with us frequently over text to make sure we were doing alright. We definitely want to come back.
Transcendently beautiful, unique, spaces, large living area, fantastic kitchen. Deeply comfortable and restful. Enjoy the stillness and light. We loved it.
Just what we needed! as we were leaving my 4 yr old nephew gave this review when asked about the house -"unsual, cozy, happy, fun" and we all agreed! Great kitchen with more then what you will need to cook a few great meals, close enough to town to run and grab something but feels like you are all out by yourself in nature, roomy yet cozy. We had a great time and hope to go back some time.
There is really nothing like Spikehorn Ranch. My friends and I visited for my birthday and it felt like we were staying on an artists compound. There was so much to see and explore on the ranch that we felt like we never had to leave. The fridge broke while we were there but the host was so accommodating and arranged for a new one to be delivered that day. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. I loved everything about this place and will definitely be back!
This is an amazing property. The listing does not do it justice. It feels like an artist’s studio in the desert. The entire place is created from reclaimed materials, providing the environment of restoration and renewal that you come to the desert for. Creativity and vision in every breath. Truly magical. It’s also a quick ride to the Park and grocery. It’s immaculately clean and the property manager is incredibly supportive and responsive. We feel very lucky to have spent our holiday here.
This is a fun property to enjoy friends and the area. If you are allergic to dust, do not stay here. We had a great time here and made magical memories, but this location is borderline glamping! Its vibe is artistic and eclectic, and there are tons of beds, places to hang out, things to explore, but the vibe is run down but functioning well. I can't explain it any other way. I think this is the vibe of Joshua tree in general... The kitchen is superb but lacks cleaning supplies so bring those. Also, I got the best sleep I've had in months while simultaneously accepting dirt is the word. I wanted solitude, privacy, and stars. All of those things were accessible. The "nest" is magical and a true treat! My recommendation would be to bring cleaning supplies, a candle, and allergy meds.
Boundless Natural Beauty Seen Thorugh the Eyes of an Inspiring Artist
Spikehorn Ranch is a personification of a deeply rooted, deeply creative artist. The property lives and breathes, welcoming each guest to explore the wonders of Joshua Tree, the inspirations of Randy Polumbo (a truly unique artist) , and to look inside ourselves and foster our own creative spark.
Our entire stay was full of adventure, discovery, and grounding, and the ranch spectacularly facilitated each step of the journey. Each guest departed fulfilled and seeing our world with a slightly different perspective. I could not give a higher recommendation.
In a practical sense, the property managers were responsive, respectful, and helpful. Sure, we ran into a few issues here and there, but each circumstance was handled easily and quickly as the managers went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was both comfortable and transformational.
There simply is no better property to truly uncover the majesty and mysticism of Joshua Tree. Don't wait. Just hit the "Book It" button. You will not be disappointed.
I booked this property for a weekend with my girlfriend and her friends and it was absolutely amazing. The main house was perfect for having family style dinners and playing board games and there was plenty of room for the friend group. My girlfriend and I stayed in the back house and it was even more magical than the photos. It felt private from the main house and the interior was truly incredible. There are so many places on the property to hang out and relax (patio, jacuzzi, outdoor bed, etc.) and the view of the sunrise is breathtaking. Check-in was very easy and the property is extremely close to markets, shops, and anywhere you'd want to go in Joshua Tree while still feeling secluded. I would highly recommend this place!
My friends and I stayed here Friday-Sunday to celebrate my 30th birthday. We had an AMAZING time and never needed to leave the house! There were plenty of sleeping arrangements for our group of 10. The kitchen was well stocked. Wifi worked great. We were far enough from the main road/neighbors that we felt secluded, but only a five minute drive from Walmart if we needed anything. 10/10 would recommend and would love to come back and stay again!
Everything and more- super special energy at this one-of-a-kind property- full of creativity, comfort and wonder. Had everything we could want and need. Truly special!
Amazing property and amenities. We will never forget this weekend in the desert. Thank you Cody for all your help. We will be back soon. A memory for life :)
Great property, some unique features that folks should be aware of
We had a great time at the property, lovely location and houses. The artists medium uses - at times - some risque materials, that kids may have questions about. We also left an item and were told it would be returned several times - it wasn't. Nevertheless, the property and stay were fantastic, I would absolutely stay again.
I haven’t seen some of my girl friends in a while and we decided to get together in Joshua Tree. I found this property and thought the pictures were great but they didn’t even come close to doing the property justice. We adored the property! It was a great space for us all to be together and be in nature. We cooked together, played games, walked around the property, and watched the stars. We had an amazing time and want to return!! There were so many little details that made the property unique and throughout our stay we saw more and more. The communication with the host/hosts was fantastic and they were very responsive when we had a question during our stay!!
This property is very special. It's kooky, cozy, and just what we needed. You feel quite secluded even though you're minutes from Joshua Tree National Park. It's a quick drive to shops and restaurants but to be honest the kitchen is so well stocked that you could cook all your meals at home. Every sunrise and sunset is a masterpiece, and there are so many little nooks and spaces to explore. We hope to be back soon.
Photos don’t do it justice. This place was beyond perfect for our group of 10. Stunning sunsets and sunrises. Excellent design and aesthetic. The giant bed was amazing for stargazing and sunset watching. Hosts extremely responsive and sweet. Felt secluded, but was just a few minutes to the main road. We’ll never forget this vacation!
Deeply peaceful, spacious, comfortable space. See my "post-apocalyptic sublime" review below for more details. I wish the trailers were still available.
This place was perfect for our small group getaway. The weather was pretty bad all weekend so the two houses gave us plenty of space to enjoy our time inside. The kitchen is amazing and allowed us to cook all of our meals there, we never had to leave the whole weekend! Can’t wait to come back
Exceptional weekend, star gazing and perfect weather.
The houses, and overall property were absolutely splendid. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. We had a group of 9, split between the front and back house. There wasn't enough time to explore the whole place, we will be back. Our new favorite spot in J Tree.
