This place has it all… look no further for a great desert escape that will leave you eager to plan your next stay. The house has all of the modern conveniences you will need, but also has that mid-century charm. Very clean and well-taken care of. The outdoor space is all you can ask for… huge pool and inviting spa (both immaculately clean), plenty of space to lounge, play, cook, and enjoy your time with friends and family. The hosts make your booking care-free with timely communication, clear instructions, and a willingness to accommodate your every need. We will definitely be back!

All beds were very comfy. Extra blankets and pillows as needed in each room. The pool and spa are big and so many floats and toys available for our use.

I've stayed at many short term rental properties where the pictures are doctored up and it's super disappointing upon arrival.This is definitely not one of those places! Upon arrival, this house was exactly as described and really made my family happy.The pool was our main concern as the kids wanted to spend lots of time in it, and it did not disappoint. The pool was very nice - had a shallow section where toddlers can even splash around, and had a connected jacuzzi on a higher level. When the jacuzzi jets were not on, the water for both were being filtered. The main thing was that it was super clean and clear!We rented this place for our trip to Joshua Tree National Park and for some R&R before the kids started school. The interior was very comfortable with the kitchen being super clean and well stocked with everything that we would need. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean and well stocked.The backyard is very spacious with a small park-like hangout spot, and a covered area where we can play various games - Jenga, Connect, cornhole, etc.Of course the pool/jacuzzi - they have lots of floaties so you can relax on the water.The host (Skip) was very communicative, helpful, and quick to respond to my messages. I would highly recommend anyone staying in this area to stay at this house. Do all your shopping beforehand since you may not leave due to it being so nice and relaxing! I know my family will be back here again.

About the host

Hosted by Skip Wells

Host profile image
Skip and Monica are experienced real estate investors with a passion for providing memorable hospitality experiences to our guests. With four vacation rentals in La Quinta and Yucca Valley, we've developed a deep understanding of what it takes to create the perfect getaway.

Our team consists of Monica, a former Dental Hygienist, and myself, a former Senior Vice President of Commercial Banking. We live near the beach in Southern California and we're committed to providing exceptional service to our guests. We take pride in ensuring that our properties are beautifully appointed, immaculately clean, and include all the amenities you need to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

We love the hospitality business and are so grateful for all of our wonderful guests. It brings us great joy to hear that our guests have had an amazing stay and we take all feedback to heart as we strive to make our properties even better. We can't wait to welcome you to one of our properties and share the beauty of the desert with you.

Why they chose this property

Our property is located in a peaceful and quiet residential section of Yucca Valley, making it the perfect retreat for those looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the desert. Plus, you'll be within walking distance to the boundary of Joshua Tree National Park and just a short 15-minute drive to the official park entrance in Joshua Tree. If you're interested in camping, the Black Rock Canyon Campground is also conveniently nearby.

For those looking to explore the surrounding area, we're just a short drive away from Pioneertown and Pappy & Harriet's, two must-see destinations in the area. You won't have to worry about navigating any dirt roads to get to our property, and you'll have easy access to abundant shopping options like Walmart, Stater Brothers, Dollar Store, Grocery Outlet, Rite Aid, Walgreens, and Vons. Plus, there are plenty of dining options nearby, so you'll never have to go far to find a great meal. We believe our property is the perfect home base for anyone looking to experience the best of the desert and we look forward to hosting you!

What makes this property unique

Getting around Yucca Valley and Joshua Tree is a breeze, with Highway 62 running through the entire city. Along the way, you'll find Morongo Valley gas stations, Cactus Mart, and a variety of unique vintage stores with cafes sprinkled in. Be sure to stop by the Frontier Cafe on Pioneer Road and Hwy 62 before checking out the art display at the ACME gift shop out back, and don't miss the inviting Hoof and Post and other nearby shops.

There are also several grocery stores along Hwy 62, including Stater Brothers, Vons, and Grocery Outlet, as well as a row of fast food options that includes Arby’s, McDonald's, Del Taco, Sonics, and Starbucks. Towards Yucca Valley's end, you'll find the Super Walmart and Home Depot, along with more chain eateries like Steak and Shake, Panda Express, and Taco Bell.

Joshua Tree City is home to stunning scenic views and unique stores, including the must-visit Rock Shop and Joshua Tree Coffee. If you're up for an adventure, head down Park Ave. to discover Coyote Corner, JT Saloon (which can have a long wait but is worth it), JT Visitor Center, and the Crochet Museum.

Park Ave. is also the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park, where you can explore the breathtaking landscapes and take on a variety of hikes. Note that there is a fee of around $30.00 to enter the park, but it's well worth it. Our favorite hike is Parker Dam, and we highly recommend checking out the photo-worthy Skull Rock while you're there.
