Resort-style family reunion home

Stunning views, unbelievably spacious, sense of luxury all around, little ones wanted this to be their forever home, grown-ups couldn’t stop talking about getting a vacation home like this one, very responsive and considerate host - all in all this could be our every year family reunion spot.

Clean, comfortable stay! The home is situated near the west entrance to Joshua Tree National Park and made for easy access to all the great trailheads. We had two families of 4 and the layout was perfect...one side of the home for kids, the other for adults. The pool was well kept and the heated option was well worth it. The spa could go from 70 to 105 in just a few minutes! The garage game room was a cherry on top. If you're planning a trip to Joshua Tree with family I'd highly recommend this property.

This spot was perfect for our crew! The space is so spacious and perfect for larger groups. Plenty of common areas that comfortably sit everyone. Super affordable compared to other options we were considering for our weekend trip. You can’t beat the location if you’re park-bound, only a 6min drive to the West Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park. Communication with our host was also effortless. When we needed to get in touch, we had no problems and our host was very helpful. I would absolutely book here again!

Excellent! Perfect for our group!

This house was exactly as described and was perfect for our group. It was set up well, with everything you might need. There was plenty of space to spread out, the views were great and the pool was awesome. The beds were quite comfortable too. Collectively we all agreed that staying here was relaxing and fun. Thank you Annie for your great communication and easy check-in/out! I highly recommend this house. We would definitely stay here again!

Great stay

Our group stayed at the house for a long weekend and had a great time. The pool and spa were really nicely warm which allowed for great stargazing while night swimming. We saw some wildlife right off the back porch: coyotes, quail, roadrunner, hares, bats, ect. Pleanty of room for everyone and located close to hiking. Host was responsive and helpful with all requests. Would recommend the house.

Oasis in the JoshuaTree desert

The house was great for our extended family gathering - plenty of space, very clean and comfortable, with a large terrace and a beautiful pool from where to enjoy the desert views. Just minutes from Joshua Tree Park’s West entrance- we enjoyed being able to easily get to the Park for hiking and stargazing. Great communication with our host. We want to be back one day!

Wonderful Joshua Tree home

We enjoyed finding a home large enough to comfortably house an extended family group with 11 people. The house is very near JT National Park. The house is on a hill with the back patio area overlooking a beautiful valley. In the morning, we could hear coyotes calling to each other across the valley. The home is well equipped for enjoying meals together. The pool provided a nice respite after our hikes.

Peaceful Gem in the desert

We had an amazing time at this property. It was 4 couples and all of our kids ages 3-9. The property is absolutely perfect and peaceful. We all loved the pool and hot tub and the view is unbeatable . It’s right next to J Tree national park which was fun to explore as a group and we booked a soundbath with a local person recommended by the host. The host was actually the easiest most laid back person I’ve dealt with on all the booking sites. So accommodating with early check in and late checkout. It was such a fun weekend and the house was super clean . I’d definitely recommend and would come back!

My family and I had the best desert get away here and would rec it to anyone! Family friendly, pet friendly, fully stocked large kitchen, nice decor, good A/C. The pool and jacuzzi were sparkling clean and heated very nicely. Laying in the jacuzzi at night under the stars was magical. The Milky Way was right above us and we saw so many shooting stars. Hiking in Joshua Tree National Park was 2 miles away. We saw a coyote, road runner, jack rabbits and more. It felt like another world. The five bedroom house was spacious with very comfortable beds, couches, indoor and outdoor eating areas. The owners were just a text away and answered within minutes. Thank you Annie and Josh! We would definitely return!

Awesome house, great time, can’t wait to come back!

Just spent 4 nights at this gorgeous home. It was perfect for the 3 families that went. Plenty to do at the house as well as in the area. At the house we jacuzzied, swam, played billiards, Foose ball and donkey Kong! The guys did some bike riding around the area near the house. We all went hiking and climbing rocks in the amazing Joshua Tree National Parak, which was just a couple of miles away. One day we drove our to a desolat are a in 29 palms and went shooting. Annie was very accommodating and responsive to my many emails and texts. We had the best time and we're already talking about our next trip out here and staying at this lovely house again! Thanks you Josh and Annie!

House is beautiful but clearly there have been parties that are not cleaned up properly. The walls have markings, glitter all over the couch, un-removed party accessories from the pool, and if I’m being charged an additional fee to heat the pool it should actually be warm. Only one side of the pool was warm, the other side freezing cold. For stargazers - this house overlooks the town of JT so will have light pollution through the night. Also signage saying you can’t play any music.

Highly recommend this peaceful and beautiful VRBO!

Your house is just absolutely a gem and so special. It’s solace and surroundings couldn’t be more relaxing - we even got to see it snow in the desert. We enjoyed the National park and even spent a day at the Living Desert in Palm Springs. It’s a great home base to explore the area in a really peaceful home. The home is cared for well, decor is beautiful and we were very comfortable. You really put effort into the maintenance of the house and it is visible with upgrades/replacement to the furniture since we visited last. The pool is so clear and clean and a real treat - even in the chilly spring weather the heated pool and hot tub was fantastic! The layout works really well for our family with 6 kids and has enough space. And it’s one of our favorite VRBOs! We hope that sometime soon will be able to come back and visit Joshua tree again.

Everything we could have wanted.

We were looking for a house that could accommodate our family - a set of grandparents, and our two kids with families. The place was perfect. Plenty of space to sleep and play indoors, a pretty well-appointed kitchen, and the pool with spa was icing on the cake. Not far from the park, but we also could just walk out the door to take some nice walks and take in the desert. Annie was a great host.

Awesome Getaway!

This house is amazing! The location to the national park couldn't be any closer and the house set up is perfect for 3-4 families with kids. We hiked during the day and came back to the house to hop in the pool and cool off. At night we hung out in the jacuzzi and enjoyed the stars. Definitely would recommend to anyone that likes the outdoors but doesn't want to rough it camping.
