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.

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.
