My wife and I wanted to spend a few days away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, and this was the perfect spot. tucked back off the road, with the nearest neighbor some distance away, this place was great. The first impression is that the home is a little Spartan, but then you realize that it really does have everything needed to make the stay enjoyable. The first night was cool and windy but the fire pit was an excellent antidote for that. Then spent an entire day without leaving the property, just reading, relaxing, getting some sun, making use of the well supplied kitchen, and taking advantage of the library of games and puzzles. After a day of hiking in Joshua Tree National Park (not very far away), the hot tub was just what the doctor ordered. The outdoor shower (yes, there's one inside too...) provides an expansive view of the desert, stretching away in the distance. And the patio cover with the constellation "Leo" built into the shade cover was intriguing, to say the least. all in all, a very nice place. would definitely consider going back.
