For anyone looking for an oasis in the high desert that is completely private, quiet, and off the beaten path while being close to Joshua Tree National Park, look no further. I honestly can’t believe I found this little gem. The house is very spacious, very well maintained, and has an amazing private back yard and hot tub. I loved being far from any tourists or tourist spots, while being a short drive (5min.) from breakfast and cute shops. The West entrance of the national park is nearby, but busy, so I was happy to find that the less-busy North entrance is just 20 minutes away. I felt at home immediately, as if it were my own, and enjoyed star gazing from the hot tub every night. We stayed for 4 days and I would’ve easily stayed another month. I feel so relaxed and refreshed, having spent time in nature at the national park, and in beautiful quiet privacy in the backyard all week. The host was so easy to reach from the time I booked the property through check out. They’ve done an amazing job with their property and I cannot wait to go back. I’m very picky and don’t rave about most places I stay. But I can’t say enough about how wonderful this little spot is. Again, if you and your family or group of friends are looking for peace & quiet away from tourists but near Joshua Tree National Park, this place is for you.

About the host

Hosted by Sati

Host profile image
Hello, my name is Sati. I originate from the east coast, yet have lived on the west coast for many years.

I've been in love with Joshua Tree since back when I first moved to CA. I would come out to camp in the park and rock climb with friends. We had such a great time!

I have been fortunate enough to purchase a few properties with the intention to provide a comfortable landing spots for friends and families who want to explore the desert as well as what the area has to offer.

Whether you cone to Joshua Tree for nature and the park or to visit the eclectic art and music scene, I am happy for you to call my home your home.

Why they chose this property

What I love about the location is that is close to the west park entrance and close to town yet you will feel secluded and private.

What makes this property unique

Saddleback Oasis is a comfortable place to stay, it feels like a home. Come to get comfy and cozy in the desert. The house provides everything you need, to cook, bake, relax and connect. Connect to nature and to your friends and family. It is a joy to host and I hope a joy for you to visit.

The beds are comfortable and get rave reviews. The outdoor spaces and fully fenced and secluded, perfect for your pup or for you to relax in the hot tub. The sun rises out front and sets out back, take your pick!
