Some stellar reviews from previous guests:
“Large beds, incredible kitchen and a wrap around deck. What more could you want? This house gave me designer inspiration!! They have a projector rather than a television and it is GENIUS. Directions are impeccable and the response time, even for menial questions, is immediate! For example, we asked where a can opener was and heard a response in three minutes flat. Can’t say enough good things about this home. BOOK NOW!!” - Amber November 2020
“This is a beautiful space, and so relaxing. The hot tub is fabulous, as are the bedding and mattresses. Lovely details, great big projector, amazing views, clean and spacious countertops in the bathrooms and kitchen. Rabbits hopping outside in the morning. Really enjoyed our stay, and we'll be back again!” - Rayhane November 2020
“Shadow Mountain house was amazing! Perfect for a relaxing weekend exploring Joshua Tree. Loved star gazing in the hot tub! Everything was very clean, great deco. My family and I enjoyed ending the evening watching a movie on their cool projector! We definitely will be back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND” - Jesse October 2019
