This property was everything we needed as a base for exploring Joshua Tree NP. We especially enjoyed the backyard outdoor space and gas grill. The kitchen was fully equipped with good quality dishes, pots and pans, flatware, serving ware, etc. The washer and dryer were handy. There were games available to play, a phone charging station and snacks! Every little detail helped make our stay stress free and enjoyable! We highly recommend this property.

This was the perfect house for a getaway to Joshua Tree. Very close to the park, a wonderfully well-accomodated home, and exactly what my family and I were looking for! The host was so communicative, and we had just a delightful time. My kids (6 and 4) have already asked when we'll go back to the Joshua Tree house!

We had a wonderful time at Linda’s property! It was our first time visiting a national park. The house’s proximity to the park made it easy to get in and out quickly. We traveled with our 2yo son, so we spent just a couple hours in the park each day and the rest of the time enjoying the house. There was plenty of space for him in the living room to play safely and even blocks in the TV cabinet for him to use! The back yard was spacious and fun for my 2yo to explore. Overall a relaxing family trip.

Good Stay

We had a short and relaxing stay at this property during a cool, rainy spell at Joshua Tree. The house is in a convenient location, close to the park's entrance. We found it cozy and comfortable.Good beds. Clean. Quiet. We didn't do much cooking, but the kitchen is sufficiently equipped. The view from the backyard is great at night (during the day, not so scenic). The backyard is fenced, so our dog could get out and explore (although there's an open storage shed without doors which presented a bit of a hazard and an eyesore). All in all, though, it was a great spot to return to after a day in the national park.

Great stay

We loved the location - quiet but easy access to town and the park, great view, comfortable bed and indoor and outdoor spaces. Hosts were very responsive and we had everything we needed for a week of days spent hiking and mostly eating in. A few things could use some maintenance, but nothing that detracted from our stay.

Can’t beat the location

This was such a lovely home! The host went above and beyond with all of the extra amenities. This home worked really well for our family traveling with a 2-year-old and 10-month-old. You also can’t beat the location-only 3 minutes from the NP visitor center.
