We absolutely loved this little gem! It was the perfect place for us. Close to Joshua National Park and town but secluded enough for privacy. It was very clean and I loved cooking on the old stove! Our dogs loved it. Concrete flooring so easy cleanup. We would stay here again.

Stayed during mid-March

Stayed during mid-March. The property is excellently furnished with all the amenities. It was very clean and has great views of the mountains. The hammocks are great for a nap after lunch. The location near the park and Yucca Valley town is great, but still feels somewhat secluded. Be prepared to drive on dirt roads to get there.
