25% off 7-night stay!✨1/2 Acre Heated!🔥Pool/Spa 2 King beds🛌🛌 Bunk Queens👑

Escape to this 3-bedroom mid-century ranch style house that sleeps 6!🏘️

*2 King Beds 🛌🛌
*1 Queen Bunk Bed which is 2 Queen Mattresses 🛌🛌

Tucked away in the rugged heart of Yucca Valley, just a stone's throw from the raw beauty of Joshua Tree National Park, you'll find the Hidden Gold Ranch House. This isn't your typical vacation rental; it's a dive into the soul of the desert, a place where the wild, untamed spirit of the West is captured in every nook and cranny!🌵💫

Surrounded by a grove of stoic Joshua Trees, the ranch offers a half-acre of private, resort-style living with a heated saltwater pool and spa that seem to whisper secrets of the desert under the moonlit sky 🌜💦. Inside, the décor is a mix of cowboy and bohemian styles—think of it as a haven for those who live by their own rules, with king beds that invite tales of adventure and a queen bunk bed that's more than just a place to crash!🛏️🎸


Pool Maintenance Reminder:

For the best pool experience, Alvino, our pool specialist, performs essential maintenance on Tuesdays and Fridays between 12 PM and 2 PM. His work, crucial for ensuring clean and safe water, takes less than 20 minutes. We kindly ask for your cooperation during this brief time to allow access. Thank you for your understanding and helping us keep our pool in top condition.

Step outside the gates, and you're in the heart of Yucca Valley's vibrant local scene, with stores, restaurants, and iconic spots like Pappy & Harriet's and the Integratron offering a taste of the local lore and live tunes that echo the desert's timeless call 🍽️🎶. The treasure hunt continues with vintage and boutique shops scattered along Highway 62, each with its own story to tell 🛍️🌞.

But let's not gloss over the essence of this place. Hidden Gold Ranch House sits quietly in a peaceful neighborhood, a mere wander away from the vast wilderness of Joshua Tree National Park. Here, guests hold the keys to their own desert kingdom, complete with smart lock access and a spa remote control—modern conveniences that never overshadow the rustic charm 🔑🌵

The kitchen is a testament to the spirit of hospitality, stocked with spices and all the gear needed to brew up some Joshua Tree Coffee, making mornings something to look forward to ☕🌅. And for those cooler desert nights, the pool's waters can be warmed, offering an oasis of comfort amid the whispering winds of the desert 🏊‍♂️🔥.

Now, let's talk about the stars. The Hidden Gold Ranch House offers an unparalleled stargazing experience that's simply out of this world. With minimal light pollution, the night sky reveals itself in a spectacle of twinkling lights, galaxies, and shooting stars, turning the simple act of looking up into a profound cosmic journey 🌌✨. It's a reminder of the vastness of the universe and our place within it, all from the comfort of your desert retreat!

But this is more than just a place to stay; it's an invitation to live a little louder, to explore not just the landscape but also the limits of your own comfort zone. With a few ground rules to respect the tranquil vibe and local wildlife, it's about embracing the adventure while being mindful of the magic that makes this place unique 🚀🌌.

Anthony Bourdain might have said it's about the journey, not just the destination. Hidden Gold Ranch House embodies this spirit, offering a basecamp for those eager to explore the raw, unfiltered beauty of Joshua Tree and its surroundings. It's more than just a vacation rental—it's a gateway to experiences that stick with you, long after the desert dust has settled on your boots 🌄🍃

Peaceful and Relaxing
Just what my wife and I were hoping for. Tranquil and relaxing setting with perfect weather for visits with family. The house is comfortable, well equipped with a beautiful pool. We especially liked all the trees with a wide variety of birds (including a Great Horned Owl that was a nightly visitor).

Gem in the Desert
We had a fun and restful stay with 2 adults, 3 teens, and a 12 year old. All enjoyed the property, it's proximity to great hikes, the clean pool and pool toys, the access to everything we needed for preparing meals, and more. Beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. We also enjoyed some March Madness on the tv and everyone had a seat! Hosts Skip and Monica were helpful and communicative. We hope this was just our first stay.

Perfectly appointed vacation rental in excellent location
Our family of five spent four nights here and enjoyed it immensely. The kids loved the bunk beds, horse themed room and especially the pool/hot tub. I appreciated the well appointed kitchen, grill and fire pit. Plenty of towels for the pool and showering. There were lots of leftover spices, oil, coffee and cleaning supplies. These are usually things we have to buy when going to other VRBOs. It really felt like staying at a home and not just a rental property. There were also games, a cute bar set up area in the living room and lots of seating at the dining table. Great experience and highly recommend!

We had a very pleasant stay in this well supplied, comfortable house with a wonderful backyard and neighborhood. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and the many animals we saw on our daily walks. The owners could not have been more professional and helpful. We highly recommend this rental.

This place is a gem! Perfect for families
My 3 kids (10,8,4) had an incredible time here. The first impression when we walked in is how clean it was! It’s so tastefully decorated and so comfortable. They’ve thought of everything! Pool/backyard is fantastic. We plan to come back many times!

Backyard oasis near Joshua Tree
We stayed a week to hike in Joshua Tree. Property was clean, well maintained and owners were excellent at communication. Neighboorhood is quiet and felt very safe and family oriented. The backyard was a hit with the kids due to the pool and firepit. My husband and I enjoyed relaxing in the spa after hiking while the kids swam. The small fee to heat the pool all week was definitely worth it. The house was well stocked with everything we needed so other than a trip to the grocery store to get food we were set. There some nice restraunts around the area as well for nights we did not want to cook. Highly recommend.
