If you have any issues booking feel free to reach out directly to us! (Scroll to bottom and hit contact host/owner). 

WHOLE HOUSE ALL TO YOURSELF!

Exterior: Drive up to our home and enjoy the serenity of a low trafficked street. Pull up to our horseshoe driveway and see one of the larger sized lots in the area. Professional landscaping in the front includes Joshua trees, a palo verde tree, oleanders, pomegranite trees, and Sonoran Desert cactus, including prickly pear and cholla. The backyard features a Joshua Tree Forest, a heated salt water pool, a gazebo with a see through roof for stargazing, a desert beach, a misquite tree, a gas BBQ that never runs out of gas. The ULTIMATE BACKYARD also has a basketball hoop on the pool, and horseshoes!

Inside: Walk inside to the massive open floor plan with a dining area with a large table that seats 8, which converges into the kitchen which features a electric range with quick boil, an inverter microwave for slow cooking, a stainless steel range hood, and a large side by side fridge with an ice maker and filtered water. Level 4 granite counterops with oak cabinetry give it a nice look. Kitchen also has a dishwasher with a 1HP garbage disposal. Off the kitchen is a large living room with a fireplace off the pool patio. The split floorplan has a bonus room on one side with mountain views, and a pool table, and trundle beds. On the opposite wing you will find 2 bedrooms, a master suite, and bathrooms featuring travertine tile. The master has a jumbo luxury shower head.

Office space: Calling all teleworkers! Our home features office space in one of the bedrooms with comfy office chairs. Each room also has a casting/mirroring enabled smart TV, which you can use as a second monitor with your laptop if you have the right equipment. Escape from the noise in the house and go to your private area to work.

Comfort: Many houses in Twentynine Palms do not have air conditioning, they have swamp coolers. You're in luck here with AC that blows ice cubes. We use a HEPA rated filter to keep the dust down. Every bedroom on the house's bedroom wing has fans with dimmable lights. All feature wood shutters, with blackout curtains, for a peaceful nights rest. All beds have 100% cotton sheets and 100% cotton blankets (duvets are microfiber). Enjoy endless hot water from a tankless electric water heater. Master bathroom features a jumbo sized shower head. House is energy efficient with dual pane windows and quality insulation. Mattresses are all medium firm and fiberglass free.

Conservation: Our home offers some green features. We minimize plastic waste with our bathroom supplies. Our A/C returns to a reasonable temperature range throughout the day. The pool features a salt-water chlorinator. We recycle and expect guests to do the same.

Pool Heat: We have the warmest pool in the low desert. We heat our water in THREE ways! One is with aquathermal solar, second is with gas, third is with pool blanket. Solar aquathermal is FREE and works well April 1-Sep 30 and maxes out in mid 80's. Gas heat is needed to keep pool swimmable from Nov 1-March 30 and is $249 for the first day and $129 for each subsequent day and keeps it at a ridiculously warm 90 degrees. Gas heat in the warmer months from April1-Sep30 is $129 for the first day and $89 for each subsequent day and will guarantee the pool at 90 degrees. Gas heat is available year-round, in case the weather is too cold on the day you arrive for the electric or solar heater to be effective. The solar blanket is required year round to keep Mother Nature happy, it reduces energy loss by 90%. If you select one add-on, it must be for all days of your booking, not just one day. 90 degrees is similar temperature to a warm bath. Just let us know after booking if you want to add the gas heat.

ATTENTION LARGE GROUPS: we have comfortably accommodated large groups:
-Master: King+1Twin Roll-Away
-Bdrm2: King
-Bdrm3: King

Not What It Looks Like
A large, luxurious hilltop house with spectacular mountain and city views on 1/2 an acre. Not really. Not luxurious. More like a house for 3 adult couples and a lot of kids. The main refrigerator was non-functional and a substitute fridge had been placed in the dining room area. The garbage disposal wasn't working. The bed frame in the master bedroom was broken. The glass on the fireplace was broken. The towels were like sandpaper and very thin. The linens were still drying in the dryer when we arrived at 5 p.m. We had to put them in the bathrooms. The beds were comfortable, but the whole experience was tainted by the problems. The owner seemed responsive about fixing the garbage disposal. It wasn't possible to fix the bedframe before we left. We had brought firewood for the fireplace and used a big log to prop up the bed. We were hesitant to use the fireplace because of the broken glass screen. We also were very surprised that the owner charges per person for visitors who do not stay on the property overnight. I have been a long-time user of VRBO and never had this experience. We would probably not recommend this to someone expecting luxury.

Great location, star gazing amazing, pool table was a huge bonus for the kids, heated pool was great
We loved the location of this property, took us just 10 minutes to get to park entrance. It has plenty of beds, and the kids loved playing pool at night. I initially declined to heat the swimming pool because it seemed expensive, but quickly discovered that the night temps in the desert require the pool to be heated to be tolerable- and it was a huge bonus once I called and paid for it to be heated - and added a lot to our enjoyment. Bring robes because when you get out of the pool, the night air is so chilly (time of year, March- Spring Break) and robes would have made all the difference. We did not locate any board games at the house. so bring a few for entertainment. Property management communication was easy and great customer service. We would definitely book this property again, was clean, close to town (but still felt private), and had all the basics needed. I was there with family, but could see how this would make a great party setting as well. Only reason for the 4 stars on the accuracy of online listing was that neither of the 2 outdoor grills worked. I did let the property managers know, so hopefully this will be rectified.

Nice place
Definitely had party house vibes and some things were in slight disrepair, fridge etc. But overall perfect for our group who just wanted a place to hang out near Joshua tree. Very clean, pool & backyard are nice!

Winter Stay
This was a spacious house with room for all my guests. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was stocked. The only downside was the cleanliness of the property; there was moldy fruit in the fruit bowl and trash in the bunk room.

The house is very nice
The house is very nice. I especially enjoyed the stars at night from the house. It’s has everything you need to have a very pleasant stay. It’s well equipped and spacious. Not to mentioned the pool table and the foosball made it extra fun. This is one of the best VRBO's I have stayed at. We were amazed by the interior and exterior design. Another thing that made our experience even better is that David is a great host, and he goes far and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. I recommend a 100% and we would definitely want to come back for a fun and relaxing weekend. Their circular driveway easily parked 7 of our vehicles in our group.
