Golden Desert Ranch - Hot Tub, Fire Pit and BBQ
Summary:
Golden Desert is your relaxed retreat. Located in Joshua Tree minutes from the national park, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath getaway comfortably hosts up to 6 guests. The spacious interior features an open kitchen, cozy movie seating, and an indoor game room with ping pong. Out in the fenced 1-acre yard, enjoy refreshing dips in the cowboy pool, tetherball, hammocks, BBQ dining, a hot tub, and stargazing by the fire pit. Easy, low-key desert memories for all ages.
The Space:
The layout opens up to a relaxed interior built around comfort and easy mornings. The main living room offers generous seating around a smart TV and electric fireplace for afternoon downtime, while the garage features a dedicated game room with a pool table for friendly competition. A fully equipped kitchen and open dining area make preparing group meals stress-free, while three quiet bedrooms (featuring a King, Queen, and Full bed) ensure everyone gets a peaceful night of sleep.
An expansive, fully fenced acre of backyard space provides plenty of room to unwind under dark desert skies. Cool off during warm summer afternoons with a dip in the cowboy tub, challenge your crew to a game of tetherball, or sway lazily in the shade of the hammocks. As evening sets in, grill dinner on the propane BBQ, gather around the flickering fire pit to roast s'mores, and soak under the stars in the private hot tub.

Other Things to Note:
3:00PM Check-In: We'd love for you to check in before 8pm so you have plenty of daylight to settle in and get comfortable before dark.
HVAC: Central heating and air conditioning are provided throughout the home to keep guests comfortable in every season.
Pets Allowed: We welcome dogs for a fee of $60 per dog, with a maximum of 2 dogs per stay. Please note that no other pets are permitted at this property.

Guest Policy: We only allow the number of guests listed as the maximum occupancy for this property, so any additional day guests must be requested and approved in advance. No extra overnight guests are permitted beyond those included in your reservation.
Watch your Step: This desert land holds onto bits of its past, so you may spot the occasional rusty object or piece of glass in the yard, please wear shoes anytime you're outside. You'll also be sharing the landscape with local snakes and scorpions. They want nothing to do with you, so if you see one, just back away calmly and quietly
Wood Burning Fires: We do not permit wood-burning fires anywhere on the property at any time, including in fire pits or fireplaces, due to the high risk of wildfire in our area. This policy is strictly enforced for the safety of our guests, neighbors, and the surrounding landscape,.
Desert Critters: Please keep doors closed while entering and exiting, curious critters will let themselves in given the chance. Desert wildlife is part of what makes this area special, expect sightings of jackrabbits, tortoises, roadrunners, quail, and lizards. You may also spot coyotes, rattlesnakes, scorpions, or occasionally a bobcat or mountain lion. Most just want their space, so it's best to give them yours.
Camera/ Decibel Monitor: This property has forward-facing exterior security cameras, but there are no cameras anywhere inside the home. We also use noise decibel monitors indoors to help avoid disturbing neighbors. These only measure sound levels and never record audio.
