Thanks so much for the wonderful review! So glad you enjoyed the convenient location and found the place great and amenities helpful.
We loved having you and hope to welcome you back soon!
Stayed here for a few days with 2 kids while visiting Joshua Tree National Park and Palm Springs. Was a great place with lots of amenities. Very spacious and clean, well equipped kitchen, outdoor space was great with the hot tub, fire place, grill, and more. The game room was a total bonus and was a great spot to unwind after visiting the park. Was a very easy process to get in and out. Would recommend!
