There were lots of leftover spices, oil, coffee and cleaning supplies. These are usually things we have to buy when going to other VRBOs.

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. ##### Jessica W. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Irene D. Sep 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Short but Sweet Family Getaway I’ve always been fascinated by the nighttime sky, but we don’t see very many stars while living in Las Vegas, so I planned a short getaway to the Joshua Tree National Park area to do some sky gazing. I chose this property to stay in for two nights, based on its amenities and the reviews given by other guests. I was not disappointed in my choice. The house is in relatively close proximity to the park. The swimming pool, jacuzzi, fire pit, barbecue grill, and backyard games were delightful, and we appreciated the fully-fenced yard for our dog. Inside, the accommodations were very comfortable, and the provisions were well thought-out and plentiful. My husband commented as we were watching an NFL football game that he had never sat on such comfortable furniture in a rental house before! The kitchen and bathrooms were also well-stocked. Thank you, Skip and Monica, for sharing this house with us. We had a wonderful time! ##### Irene D. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chrissy J.

The house was super clean on check-in, and even the garage area was clean! The kitchen has tons of tools for cooking meals, and the majority of the appliances are brand new. We enjoyed hiking, exploring Joshua Tree in the morning, and coming back home to swim and relax. You truly feel at home here. The living room was super comfortable. The pool and spa were amazing! There are games both inside and outside that would make this a fun home for groups or families. We did not get to use the outdoor firepit, but it looked lovely outside. Skip and Monica also included hiking poles and binoculars to use while hiking. Their home is a very quick trip to Joshua Tree National Park, roughly 12 minutes. They are also located extremely close to restaurants, grocery stores, and pharmacies. I hope if we get the opportunity to visit the area again we are able to stay here again. ##### Chrissy J.

We had a wonderful time. The home is very comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. The main living area is spacious with a large couch, two comfortable recliners and much more. The large screen in the living room was excellent.The AC works very well and did not have any difficulty keeping the place amazingly comfortable even with the outside temp above 110 degrees. We only used one of the three bedrooms, but all of them are well furnished, comfortable and with a separate TV in each. Unfortunately (for us) this was a quick trip, and we did not have time to enjoy the wonderful pool (w/Spa) or the back yard, but we are certainly looking forward to enjoying them on our next trip to JTNP.The host is excellent. Very communicative with super rapid responses to all questions. The supplemental information on the area that was excellent. Most appreciated were the concise and simple check-out instructions, which included the (short) list of things to double check before leaving. We will definitely stay here again! ##### Mike S.

Also very quiet.We had a great week at Skip and Monica’s house and will very likely come back if we have the opportunity. ##### Sandrine M.

The house was clean, well stocked, comfortable, and the host was very nice and offered early check in. I’d stay here again. Thanks! ##### Natasha V.

Nov 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent all around This property is beautiful, spacious, clean, with comfortable beds you will have good night sleeps in. The pool and hot tub is the highlight of the property for its size, cleanliness, and the beautiful surrounding. Another highlight of this property is how the owner has thought of everything you could possibly need! Thank you so much Skip and Monica! I recommend closing the front wing of the round table in the kitchen as it is tilted and things slide off. ##### Sevana K. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracy B.

We were a group of four (two couples 60+) who spent four days alternating between hiking Joshua Tree and exploring the Palm Springs area. While it was a drive to get to each, the house was conveniently located in the middle. We loved having the hot tub to come home to every afternoon. The star gazing in the backyard was also cool. Not dark enough to see the defined Milky Way, but still amazing. We highly recommend Pappy and Harriet’s, as well as The Tiny Pony and the Snake Bite Roadhouse. ##### Tracy B.

The pool and hot tub are so refreshing. We enjoyed the games and exploring the art filled area. Cannot wait to return! ##### Amy S.
