Unique and Relaxing

The property was clean and the check in process was super easy. Lots of driveway space for up to 4 cars if needed. The host has some really cool unique instruments that he allows you to play and left instructions on how to do so. Location is very close to town but about 40-60 minutes from sites like arch rock, skull rock, and the hall of horrors. Overall it was a fantastic stay, we watched some classic VHS tapes like jurassic park and indiana jones. We would definitely come back in the future! :)

Retro Home

We checked in with ease! Everything was as advertised, it was quiet and convenient and interesting. A great place to unplug and read and enjoy the beauty of the desert. It was a rainy and windy few days so we stayed inside a lot. Hope to return soon!!

Very Pleased

The house was very clean and furnished. I appreciated the labeling and the welcome letter. This was a good place to step outside and stargaze. It is very close to Joshua Tree. I would stay here again.

Convenient location, place is lacking

Place was dirty, kitchen is under-supplied but location is invaluable. Second toilet could not be flushed using toilet paper. Floors were filthy and broken chips left on floor of kitchen. Stay if you value access to Joshua Tree National Park

Perfect house in the perfect location

Pictures don’t do this place justice. Far enough out where you get to unplug And enjoy the scenery but close enough to the town for convenience. Definitely recommend.

Host profile image
I'm an artist/musician and have been collecting art, furniture and instruments for a long time.

Why they chose this property

Because it's beautiful and not too developed. Great views of nature. I've lived in the area for almost 10 years now

What makes this property unique

If you want a vibey, bohemian desert ranch house from 1969, then this is what you're looking for. Perfect for artists/musicians especially if you're into 50's/60's/70's.
