Welcome to our Joshua Tree sanctuary! Just minutes from local shops, restaurants, and the National Park, our home sits on a private 2.5-acre fenced lot with sweeping desert and mountain views.
This is our family retreat — thoughtfully designed for comfort, relaxation, and connection. Unwind in the spa under the stars, gather around the firepit, or work remotely with WiFi and a dedicated desk.
We’re thrilled to share our home with you and hope it brings you the same serenity it brings us.

This home was welcoming and had everything I needed to be comfortable. It was easy to navigate to, and close to the park and shopping. The host was very responsive and even helped me choose which trails to hike.
Home was clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Dirt roads to property were a bit rough.

Thank you so much for staying with us and for the kind words about the home and kitchen!
We know the dirt roads leading to the property can be a surprise, and we totally understand they're not everyone's favorite part of the journey! The remote setting is part of what makes Joshua Tree so magical, and we do include detailed directions in our listing to help guests navigate the easiest route in. We're always looking for ways to make the arrival experience better, so we appreciate you mentioning it.
We hope the rest of your stay made it all worthwhile, and we'd love to welcome you back anytime!
Close to park entrance and town; clean interior and exterior; comfy beds; We just needed to bring our food everything else there; large enclosed yard (next time will bring dog); owner nice and responded when emailed; I will be back; ONLY dirt roads to access house -we did not care we like off road travel and the roads were not rough but well maintained.

About the host
Hosted by Gretchen Prince
I grew up and continue to live in Southern California. I work full time for a small independent financial planning firm and enjoy finding time to take short trips with my husband and/or adult children (camping, river rafting, hiking, snowboarding etc.).
Why they chose this property
My husband and I fell in love with Joshua Tree many years ago. This is our place to relax and enjoy the stillness.
What makes this property unique
There are many beautiful homes in Joshua Tree. We love this one because we come out and use it and share it with our family and friends. It was never just a rental.
