Situated in a quaint and quiet neighborhood just 3 miles from the North entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, it's the ideal location for your next Joshua Tree adventure. Welcome to M&L Desert Cottage! \-We are a 6 min drive from the North entrance of Joshua Tree National Park and a 20 min drive to downtown Joshua Tree. \-The interior and exterior of the cottage have been completely renovated. The space, cozy and airy, features midcentury modern and eclectic style and updated appliances. \-The kitchen has everything you will need to prepare meals—a gas oven, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, spices, and all necessary cookware. It is fully stocked with plates, glasses, cooking and serving utensils, and coffee and tea essentials. \-The cozy living room features leather seating, including a recliner chair, a 50” 4K smart TV with access to Netflix and high-speed internet access. A record player with a selection of vinyl is available for your enjoyment. \-There are two bedrooms—the main bedroom features a king-sized bed with a memory/spring hybrid foam mattress, and the second bedroom has two twin-sized memory foam beds, one of which is a stackable bed that can be set up with its own mattress for parties of 5\. A Pack-n-Play is also available for your little one. \-The bathroom has a tub/shower (extra towels are provided in hallway storage). A hair dryer is conveniently located under the sink. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are all provided for you! \-There is lots of seating on the back patio, a midcentury gas Malm fireplace, and a gas grill for outdoor cooking. It’s a great place to enjoy a lovely dinner and to relax under the stars. Don’t forget to enjoy the sunrise/sunset on our extremely comfy twin hammocks! The house and property are all yours to enjoy. There is a washer and dryer in the kitchen. The driveway will easily accommodate three vehicles. Unless previously discussed, check-in is at 4pm. We will not be at the house when you arrive, but instructions for our digital locks will be provided. We are always available by phone to answer your questions. Feel free to call or text! The living room features a 35K BTU mini split A/C system for those hot and humid days that provides heating as well. This system is limited to the living room and kitchen. The cooling system in the main part of the house is Evaporative, sometimes called “swamp cooler.” We will provide detailed instructions on how to operate it upon booking. Each bedroom has an electric heating panel on the wall for those chilly nights. Also, for those hot summer days, each bedroom has a ceiling fan. For your enjoyment, we have a guest guide with recommendations for things to do and places to eat in the Joshua Tree area. House Rules: \-Please remove your shoes. We encourage indoor house slippers or sandals. Your cooperation is much appreciated! \-The house is professionally cleaned prior to each guest’s arrival. When you leave, do your best to leave the property in the same condition as when you arrived (minus normal usage of course). \-The property uses a Septic System for waste removal. Please do not discard ANYTHING in the sinks (i.e. no food waste down kitchen sink) or toilet (other than the provided toilet paper). Following this policy will help avoid problems with the plumbing. \-Please be considerate of our neighbors—keep noise down after 10pm, especially if you are enjoying the outdoor space. \-The space is limited to 5 people and sorry, but no pets. We have this in place instead of an additional guest charge in an attempt to keep costs down for you. Kids under 2, that still fit in your travel crib, are welcome! (We provide a Pack-n-Play and high-chair for your convenience; they can be found inside the second bedroom closet.) \-Turn off gas on grill and fireplace after every use. \-Being a family home, we also have a no smoking policy (although you are welcome to smoke either out front or back).

We went to the grocery store in 29 palms to get our food including sandwiches for the hikes. We also went to the restaurants in 29 Palms. It is a very good location. ##### Ann W.

This rental is minutes from the Visitors Center and the eastside park entrance. Mark + Lyanne were quick to respond when we needed something - so kind and very helpful. Their cottage was the perfect home away from home. The house is clean, cozy, and beautifully remodeled - and it's clear that a lot of thought has gone into what folks like/need on vacation. From the hammocks out front, the sweet record player in the living room, and hands down ... the best stocked kitchen I've ever cooked in on vacation! After hiking around in the hot sun all day, this cottage was a treat to come home to. We are already planning a trip back! ##### dawn f. Stayed 5 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joyce H.

It was well decorated and fully stocked with all the comforts of home. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a family dinner. The bathroom had soap, shampoo, conditioner, towels ect. They also had a very useful welcome book illustrated by a local artist with information on hikes and restaurants in the area. Coming from an artistic background ourselves we really appreciated this detail. Its also is a short drive to the Joshua Tree National Park North entrance. Mark and Lyanne were prompt and friendly with their communications. Overall we had a fantastic experience and would love to go back! ##### Joyce H.

The owners were available and responsive by text and the house was well set up with everything we needed. It would have been a perfect stay if it hadn't been for the noise of the outdoor attached awnings at night. Whenever the wind blew, which unfortunately was often, the awnings made so much noise it was difficult to get any sleep in either of the bedrooms. We did let the owners know, and hope they have taken down the awnings for future renters. If so, I highly recommend this property. ##### Anna M.

Absolutely perfect place to stay for a trip to Joshua Tree. We went here for my wife’s birthday and it had everything we needed. I loved that their fully stocked kitchen even allowed me to make her a birthday cake! Also the location is amazing, only a couple miles from the Twenty-Nine Palms entrance to Joshua Tree (which I think is the best entrance). I definitely would recommend to anyone who is looking for a place near the park. Also excellent communication from the hosts. ##### Kyle Y.

Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John K. Apr 15, 2019 #### Another Great Stay This is our second time staying at the M&L Cottage and it was as great as the first. We love this place, super nice, super quiet and just down the hill from the magnificent Joshua Tree National Park. Mark and Lyanne go out of their way to make sure everything is set before you get there and their customer service is perfect. Looking forward to returning soon. ##### John K. Stayed 13 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natasha D., Beaumont Alberta Mar 28, 2019 #### Perfect We loved our stay in your JT home. We are a family of five and it was enough for us. We took our mornings slow, enjoyed our cup of coffee and breakfast. The location was so convenient to the north entrance of park... which we explored every day of our 5 day stay... my only suggestion is some facecloths and dishcloths. I would highly recommend it to anyone heading there. ##### Natasha D. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Earl W. Mar 5, 2019 #### Great location! This is a small but comfortable cottage that is very close to a major entrance to Joshua Tree NP. The kitchen was well equipped and the bed and living room very comfortable. We encountered one unexpected issue and the owner was very responsive, dealing with it quickly and appropriately. ##### Earl W. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Steve M P. Mar 5, 2019 #### Great location to the JTNP Spent 2 nights during our tour of JTNP. Clean and well-kept. Not fancy, but very nice. We needed to check-out in the afternoon and the owners accomodated. Good stay. Fair price. ##### Steve M P. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris M. Jan 8, 2019 #### Terrific Desert Cottage Terrific cottage. Comfortable, close to Joshua Tree, everything we needed. Would love to come back again. ##### Chris M. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel S. Oct 14, 2018 #### Clean and comfortable We found the house easily and were welcomed by the warm, cozy atmosphere. It had everything we needed! Best of all the location afforded easy access to Joshua Tree Park. I'd gladly stay here again! ##### Rachel S. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oliver G., Oceanside CA Aug 18, 2018 #### It was a lovely place to stay and included everything we could need for our stay. We enjoyed everything from the record player to watching the stars from the hammocks. We enjoyed the kitchen so much we decided to make dinner every night instead of eating out and we loved watching movies on Netflix. We came mostly for the park and we were so close to the entrance and the information center! It was our first vacation away from our families and work and it really set the bar for all future vacations. ##### Oliver G.
