We really enjoyed our week stay over Christmas! Everything was exactly as described and the host provided instructions, which made it easy to operate everything around the home. The outdoor spa was the perfect place to relax after a long day of hiking. The host kindly checked in after the first day to make sure everything was up to par. Would definitely stay again!

This house worked out perfectly for our family of eight. The home is well laid out, beautifully furnished and comfortable. We were in the pool and the hot tub every day. The proximity for hiking in Joshua Tree was a definite plus. Having never been to the park before, Joshua Tree was even more beautiful and awe inspiring than I imagined. Skip and Monica were great hosts. Communication was easy, and the home was well stocked. It is obvious that the hosts know what their guests need and they provide it for them. I hope I get the chance to come back here someday - so does the rest of my family!
