About this property
Cozy 2 BR On 2 Acres With Orchard Rosamond, CA
Welcome to the ranch. We provide a home away from home. Our goal is to provide a comfortable place to stay that meets your needs. We are great for short-term stays.
If you are working, playing, or just visiting the area, all of our amenities will save you money.
We provide a continental breakfast your first morning.
The fully furnished kitchen has a refrigerator, icemaker, oven, microwave, toaster, coffee pot, waffle iron, and blender. We have pots, pans, and dishes; everything to prepare a meal. We are only 3 miles from the local grocery store, Albertson’s.
The fully stocked kitchen exits to an attached breezeway. There is additional seating, a place to play checkers, and a cabinet that has board games for you to play. You can also relax and enjoy a cup of coffee and check your email on our free Wi-Fi.
Our breezeway exits out a sliding barn door and into the backyard. Sit on our porch swing and enjoy a California sunset.
Our bathroom has only a shower and is accessed by walking through the bedroom. We offer shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. We also have a blow dryer and curling iron. We have plenty of towels, linens, and pillows.
We have a washer and dryer located in the bathroom, and provide laundry soap and dryer sheets. There is also an iron and ironing board.
Each bedroom has a king size bed, lots of comfortable pillows, and a TV programmed with Roku and 40 channels. You have to walk through one bedroom to get to the bathroom.
In the living room, there is an electric fireplace to warm our home, a 40” big screen TV programmed with Roku and 40 channels. The sofa makes into a cozy bed for one adult or two small children. We also have an evaporative cooler that keeps the home cool on a hot summer’s day.
There is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. We have a fully covered porch that provides lots of shade to enjoy a barbecue or eat at the outdoor table. Relax in our rocking chairs with a cup of coffee in the morning and watch the sunrise, or an ice-cold glass of tea in the afternoon.
Our fenced property has plenty of room to park an RV, toy hauler, or semi-truck. One-half of the property is open desert for parking and the other half is an orchard with over 300 fruit trees. Feel free to walk through the orchard and sample some ripe berries, apples, or pomegranates. We have a bunkhouse separate from the house where our groundskeeper stays.
The house has been decorated with historical pictures of the Rosamond area; and is equipped with a carbon monoxide alarm, and smoke detectors in each room.
Our home is small and cozy, a reflection in time when life was lived outdoors. The grandeur is in the open spaces. We have four acres with over 300 fruit trees. They begin to fruit in early May and continue through October. We have four different kinds of berries, several varieties of apple trees, an apricot tree, an almond tree, and pomegranate trees. We invite you to walk in the orchard, and pick fruit that is in season.
We are in awe of all the local history. We have a library of local books from the Kern Antelope Historical Society. We have antique farm equipment from original settlers, the Graves family. We, also, have historic pictures of the area in our home.
Out the back is a porch swing to watch the beautiful California sunsets. In the front, we have a porch to sit and rock in the rocking chair, enjoy the morning sunrise, barbecue your dinner, or slide out the fire pit and roast marshmallows at night under the stars.
Pets are allowed, with responsible humans. We provide "poop bags," and ask that you pick up and dispose in the garbage can on the north side of the house. Pets are allowed in the house, and while you are out during the day, we have a 6 foot fenced kennel on the south side of the house. The kennel has a shade screen, a bowl for water, and one for food. Pets are not allowed on the beds or furniture. Animal hair on those items will be charged the $250 security deposit.
Children are welcome. We have a fenced in smaller yard for them to play. We also have the following special programs on our ROKU TV system: Nick Nick Jr. Disney – Some shows require your own TV activation Disney Jr. - Some shows require your own TV activation PBS Kids
If you let me know the ages and gender of your children, we will often stock it with games for them.
The property has security cameras, a keyless entry with your own personal code on the front door, and padlock on the gate with the same code.
We are near the hospitals for visiting nurses, solar fields, Edwards Air Force Base, Mojave Air Space and Port, and only two miles from Willow Springs Racetrack.
Enjoy the stars at night. We have solar lights on the fence to help you find your way home.
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS We do not live on the property, but are in the orchard periodically to pick fruit. We live 5 miles away, but are available to help you check in, make your stay comfortable, and help with anything you may need.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE We are in the desert and there are weeds called goat heads that will stick in your shoes. Please do not walk barefoot outside.
House Rules Please do not smoke in the house, and if you smoke outside, place butts in the cans.
The garage and the bunkhouse are private and the residence of the groundskeeper.
Feel free to walk through the orchard and pick any fruit that it is in season.
Rural Area: We are in the Mojave Desert. At first glance, the surrounding areas are filled with tumble weeds. As you look closer, you can find Joshua trees, and in the springtime a variety of wildflowers.

About the host
Hosted by owner/property manager
I grew up in Rosamond and have lived here all my life. I am a retired school teacher and have deep ties to the community. I love to meet new people, visit with old friends, and learn new things. We are a both a member of the Kern Antelope Historical Society and have a great appreciation of the area. Rosamond is a town of special gems, unique finds, and delights to be discovered.
My husband, Don, is retired from Edwards Air Force Base, where he was in charge of the quality assurance at rocket test stand. He was originally from Minnesota where he continues to enjoy hunting and fishing with his family.
We love to attend local events such as the Lancaster Performing Arts Center, Los Angeles County Air Show, Lancaster Poppy Festival, the Almond Blossom Festival, Thunder on the Lot, and my favorite, the Antelope Valley Fair. We like to travel, go to the theatre, try new restaurants, and snorkel.
Why they chose this property
Rosamond is more than just a town; it's a place that I call home. The history of the area and individual stories has always fascinated me. We wanted more than just a place that we could rent out as a vacation rental; we wanted a place that would speak to a person's heart. As soon as we saw this location, we knew this would be the place we would want to share with the rest of the world. The home was originally on a 40-acre parcel, which was subdivided to provide an income for the rancher's wife. The streets are named after their children. Our parcel is unique because it is the largest one, and it has it's own well. The gentleman who had owned it the previous seven years was from Turkey. He wanted an orchard that would grow in the desert, and be a place of connection to the community. We continue the vision of the original farmer who subdivided to provide income for his wife, the Turkish rancher who fell in love with this area, and the many people who have called Rosamond home.
