Fun stay with rambling rocks and great views

My friends and I stayed here to be close to a concert that was happening in Pioneertown, and we loved the location. Private with great views of Joshua Tree, but still closeby to all we wanted to see/do. The house was clean, well stocked with cooking supplies & ingredients, and perfect for a large group (big bedrooms & great common areas). We had a blast, thank you Bob and Jennifer!

Perfect Family Getaway

It was a wonderful family vacation in the rocky hills above Yucca Valley. We had absolutely no complaints. Quick access to town, just down the road from Joshua Tree National Park, and a perfect home to come back to after exploring the area. The views from the jacuzzi were to die for.

Pleasant stay for a family of six.

Our group, ranging in age from 28-60, stayed at this property for six nights. We all enjoyed coming back from a day of hiking to relax in the hot tub, then cook dinner in the spacious kitchen. This property is quiet, well equipped, and has beautiful views. The property manager was quick to respond to any of our questions or concerns.

Wonderful week!

This is a beautiful property with ample space and thoughtful amenities! I would recommend this rental to anyone staying with a family or friend group. There is a large gathering space and separate rooms for individual space as well. It was close to Joshua Tree where we spent most of our days - and coming back to the equipped kitchen and hot tub was perfect!

Impressively clean and well appointed.

Every aspect of this home met or exceeded our expectations. We had a group of eight men that go on an annual rockclimbing trip to Joshua Tree and this was a great location for that. We will definitely stay here again.

Great location and home

We celebrated my mom’s 80th birthday with family coming in from afar. House was stocked which made it easy. Flowers and a cake were our welcoming reception. Great views, patio and lounging area. Extremely comfortable place, much more. Definitely coming back.

Home away from home

We are two very close family with 4 kids under the age of 10 years old. We had an excellent time especially the kids who spent a lot of time outdoors climbing the rocks. The living room/dining area and kitchen was our favorite area. The view was magnificent from out of those windows. The house was wonderfully stocked and very comfortable. We will definitely come back again. Thanks for sharing the house with us.

Lovely view, beautiful house

This was a great place to stay with a big group. We loved hanging out in the backyard and enjoying one of the best views in the area. Inside, the kitchen and dining room were perfect for family dinners. Sunrise in the living room was stunning! Great cleanliness, communication and experience throughout, would definitely stay again!
