Love this place!

I needed a nice, secluded spot to help my dog escape the 4th of July fireworks and this place was perfect! The interior of this place is SO so cute and the backyard was perfect for enjoying some time under the stars. The host was very communicative, the neighborhood was nice and quiet, and the bed was super comfy. I also really appreciate the attention to detail - like providing a lantern/ bluetooth speaker, a full water filter in the fridge, and stocked toiletries in the bathroom. I would totally come back here.

Beautiful Home in Peaceful Setting

My husband and I brought our dog out here for a little desert weekend retreat and had a lovely time. The location is fantastic, right at the edge of the Sand to Snow Monument and down the road from Joshua Tree National Park. You can walk to the mesas from the front door, and the neighborhood is very quiet, with a lot of space and privacy between the homes. We enjoyed letting our dog explore the beautifully landscaped fenced-in yard, sitting in the hot tub, reading in the backyard or the cool living room during the heat of the day, listening to records, and eating a delicious takeout meal from La Copine on the back patio while listening to coyotes howling. The house is well-appointed, plenty of blankets, towels, cleaning supplies, and the kitchen is stocked with utensils and condiments, making it very easy to come in with some groceries and easily prepare a nice meal. Great little record collection, too, and a good, eclectic bookshelf! It's thoughtfully decorated with many artistic and hospitable touches. Patricia is very friendly, communicative, and helpful, which was just a cherry on top. A wonderful, peaceful experience all around.

About the host

Hosted by Patricia Knight

Patricia Knight, founder of Desert Vacation Rentals, is a longtime desert resident and passionate host. Since moving to Twentynine Palms in 1995 to raise her daughter, Patricia has developed a deep connection with the land. Her journey as a host began unexpectedly in 2017, when a request for real estate photography blossomed into managing vacation rentals in the high desert—and even one in France!

With years of off-grid living under her belt, Patricia understands the true essence of desert life, from hauling water to relying solely on solar power, much like the original homesteaders. As an “accidental host,” she treasures the desert’s peace and vast open landscapes. Through Desert Vacation Rentals, Patricia welcomes guests to experience the serenity and authenticity of the desert she loves.
