THE SPACE:
A mid-century bungalow set behind a hand-laid stonewall constructed by an earlier and very industrious settler. The rocks are locally sourced and showcase just a few colors you'll find in the home.

The front porch offers a view of the mature desert willow, cactus garden, and mountains of Gold Park in the distance. Entering the home you'll be greeted with a bright open space and character that makes gatherings a joy.

A great room with a reading area and a queen-sized sleeper for those traveling in larger groups. The dining room has seating for eight and works well as a makeshift office for the nomadic worker. The breakfast nook leads to a kitchen with all the modern conveniences with further access to the private backyard. The opposite side is the common bathroom featuring original charm including handcrafted cabinetry and an unrestored 75-year-old cast iron tub. Two bedrooms to dream of your adventure offer [1] queen and [1] full bed with down duvets and cotton linens.

The backyard is large and fully fenced complete with cacti, natural landscaping, cabana patio seating, and a fire pit. Gather your favorite fixin's from the grocery store and barbecue on the gas grill between turns at horseshoes or watching the sunset.

LOCATION:
Neighboring Joshua Tree National Park's north entrance, Stonewall Bungalow sits just 3 miles from the kiosk. With proximity to JTNP, the open lands of Gold Park, and just a few miles to the downtown district of 29 make this spot, the spot!

Awesome, just awesome

This is a perfect VRBO for Joshua Tree National Park and other areas near 29 Palms. We go to VRBOs a lot and this is one of the best. It was very clean and the kitchen was well furnished. The owner was more than communicative and it's about 3 minutes from one of the northern entrances. This neighborhood is very quiet and close to downtown 29 Palms if you're up for coffee, a Farmer's Market, a 'bit of shopping, etc. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Susan Peplow

Host profile image
As avid rock climbers, my practice husband and I have been visiting the Joshua Tree area for over 30 years, we finally purchased our home there in 2004 making it our full-time residence. When not climbing we are home-remodeling enthusiasts, gardening hobbyists, and travelers. As owners of short-term and vacation homes, we pride ourselves on presenting clean and well-equipped properties to all of our guests.

All of our properties are privately owned homes and cabins primarily in the 29 Palms and Joshua Tree, CA areas. We provide fast responses to communications to your needs and are truly humbled when you contact us for an upcoming stay. We know that there are many homes to choose from and we appreciate those who get a warm fuzzy after seeing ours.

Why they chose this property

Many people know or have read about Joshua Tree National Park and its increasing popularity but often visitors don't have the time or knowledge to explore our amazing communities. The Morongo Basin is filled with local activities, often for FREE! Long traditions include Pioneer & Grubstake Days, Music Festivals, Orchid Festival, and the Weed Show. We have some new events too including the Night Sky Festival, Joshua Tree half marathon, and Joshua Tree 55 Bike event! Even the most basic weekend includes But car shows, astronomy viewing, an art gallery viewing, and a farmers market.

As our guests, we will do our best to provide you with an insider's guide to happenings, events, hikes and even climbing suggestions. So whether you come to relax, explore or just check out the scene... you'll know you've come to the right place with the right hosts.

What makes this property unique

The vintage charm of this property is what I love the most. Inside is a mix of new and old, some original items include the bathroom with custom cabinetry and an unrestored cast iron tub. Guests will find solid wood doors, brass handles, and a built-in cubby serving 75 years! The large common spaces and proximity to JTNP make it a warm and convenient getaway spot.
