Fun family retreat
Everything we needed for a perfect family get away. Kitchen stocked with all needed kitchenware (loved the mugs), and basic spices. Everything labeled and in working order. Heaters, hot tub, wifi and smart TV all worked very well. We had a blast with the homemade table tennis table which was in good shape with plenty of paddles and balls. Plenty of room for 5 to lounge around comfortably, play games and have meals.Great location. Quiet neighborhood just 5-7 minutes from the businesses on 29 Palms Highway and 10 minutes to the park entrance. Nice hiking trail at the top of the neighborhood (up the hill) with fabulous views of the valley.
