The outdoor shower and the vintage records are very popular. This 2.5 acre retreat is situated high above the valley with expansive mountain views in all directions.

Wildlife corridors from the Park brings amazing visitors (bobcat, coyote, roadrunners etc..). Our cozy 1 bedroom home is a former homestead cabin which has been added onto over the years. It is 3 miles from the Joshua Tree National Park entrance (now designated an International Dark Sky Park)! You'll love the quiet outdoor space and night-time stargazing. Enjoy a large covered patio with a wood burning (firewood provided) outdoor screened fire pit and beautiful views to the North and East. In back is an outdoor shower, jacuzzi and views of the hills to the South and the western skies. Sunsets can be amazing all year round.

Wonderful, quiet, peaceful place. We spent a lot of time sitting in the front watching animals come and go. Close to Joshua Tree National Park, lots of great hiking. It's cool enough at night to enjoy the hot tub stargazing. All in all, lovely time, would absolutely stay again.

We really enjoyed our time at this wonderful property. It's far enough outside of town to feel remote and see lots of wildlife, but close enough to drive in for coffee, dinner or the farmers market. It's also very close to the park entrance. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with lots of spices and just about all the items you would need to cook meals like we did. We loved the hot tub, outdoor shower, turntable and fun record collection to play music. The highlight was filling the hanging bird feeders with the provided seed and watching the nature show from the amazing patio all day. I can't say enough good things about this place. Great communication from the host as well. We look forward to staying again.

This is my 3rd time staying in this house. Need I say more? The location is great, right between Yucca Valley and Twentynine Palms and just a few miles from the entrance to the park. The house, including the hot tub, is very clean. The kitchen is well appointed and there are plenty of extra towels and linens. Highly recommended!
The view from the outdoor hot tub!

Comfortable and quiet, this home is ideally situated for easy access to Joshua Tree NP. We found it well stocked with all the essentials, as well as some real "bonuses" like the extensive vinyl collection that took us on a few walks down Memory Lane! We especially enjoyed stargazing from the hot tub after a day of hiking, and hearing the occasional coyote chorus at night. We appreciated Roy & Pam's timely and thorough communication and easy check-in/out.

We loved our stay at Coyote Creek Retreat. The house is immaculate, charming and comfortable. There is an extensive record collection, with an easy to use turntable. Everything needed is provided. Roy and Pam are wonderful hosts and very responsive. We particularly loved the grounds and the setting. We were able to view gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. Unfortunately, time passed too quickly and we didn't get a chance to use the hot tub.

I’ve stayed at dozens of rentals and this one was top tier for sure. It’s very difficult to travel with cooking basics (olive oil, coffee, storage containers, etc) and this place had it all and more. Very close to JTNP and very good communication with the host.

From the beginning of booking this retreat, I received numerous messages from the hosts to insure a successful rental and pleasant stay. The kitchen set-up made cooking a breeze, comfortable furniture invited relaxation, and the overall property setting welcomed meditation and return to nature. Excellent location near the Joshua Tree Park entrance as well as the Nancy Karl trail minutes away and the hikes near Black Rock are also close.

Roy & Pam have covered all the bases and some! Coyote Creek is charming, comfortable, perfectly located for exploring Joshua Tree Park then venturing out to shop, dine or play. Don't skip The Joshua Tree Tavern - great food and fun staff! The hot tub and DARK night sky were the perfect ending to every day. We even found a jar of hummingbird nectar and some bird food to fill the feeder and enjoyed songbirds, squirrels and chipmunks with morning coffee. Lawn chairs, yard games...the list goes on. Roy & Pam are very responsive to any questions, so helpful! Highly recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Roy Houston and Pam Hansen

Host profile image
Pam and I grew up in LA and San Diego. We both like to garden at our home in San Diego. We have 70+ varieties of edible plants growing. We've been coming to J-Tree since the 70's - climbing and hiking with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

We looked for years to find a vacation place. We knew instantly this place was special, 2.5 acres, terrific views and room for family and friends.
The only noise you hear is from the wildlife coming thru the property.

What makes this property unique

You'll never feel cramped on the extra large covered porch with amazing mountain views.
Being high on the hills above the town and 3 miles from the Park makes the location extra special.
