Great place in the town of Joshua Tree

Nice, well kept place with practically everything necessary for a vacation stay. The location was off the main streets yet close to restaurants and grocery stores, and a short drive to the West Entrance of Joshua Tree NP. We had a wonderful, enjoyable stay!

Great spot

This house was exactly as described. It's minimalistic, but does the job. Only thing I noticed was the bathroom floor was not particularly clean, otherwise, it was great. Also note, there is no washer and dryer. It was not listed and I hadn't looked, but I ended up needing it while I was there and was just surprised a house this size didn't have one. Not the hosts fault, my assumption!

Disliked: Check-in, communication

Last minute check in was stressful

The hosts refused to provide check in information until the hour we could check in. This was extra stressful because as they know, there is no service inside Joshua Tree Park. We cut our hiking early to drive back into town to get service and ensure we had a check in code.

Great location

Great location and convenient. It was a cute home. I wasn’t a fan of the concrete shower and the sliding doors, but that’s more on a personal preference. The doors were just hard to maneuver. Had nearby food and a town close by for necessities which was handy.
