Dogs can be allowed, with approval and pet fee (fee found in House Rules)

• DIRECTIONS
Please make sure to follow the directions so to avoid getting stuck in any sand pits.

• ROAD TO THE HOUSE
The road to the house is a dirt road. An SUV wont be needed as they are maintained dirt roads but they can be a little bumpy.

• A/C & Heater
Mojave Ranch is cooled and heated by a mini split in the living room to keep you comfortable all year long.

• FIRE
Due to the location and a current fire ban there is a strict no open flames fire policy BUT the propane fire pit located outside if allowed.

If it is discovered that you have started an outside fire, in a fire pit, using fireworks or other open fire (propane excluded when used IN the propane firepit and propane grill provided) means your rental agreement will be terminated and there is a $200 fine.

• WIFI
Desert wifi can be super spotty and can go in and out. We have the best service for our rural area but people needing full time high speed might not find those needs met here. Not suitable to work from home from this location.

Very clean and comfortable

Very professional host! And the beds were sooo comfortable! The house was clean and easy to function (lights, tv, a/c). The location was exactly what we needed (close to downtown and park entrance). Simple check-in and check-out. There were a couple missing/broken amenities but nothing that we couldn't live without or work around. I'll point these out to the host, and I'm pretty confident they'll be fixed asap. All around a great stay. I would stay here again.

Fun family road trip to Joshua Tree!

My family and I spent 2 days here - me, my husband, our 2 daughters (ages 11 and 7), and our dog. The house was perfect for us! It is a short drive to Joshua Tree National Park for the most amazing hiking. We brought food with us to prepare for dinner and the kitchen was well-stocked for simple cooking. The kids loved exploring the yard and getting in the hot tub. There was a bit of a learning curve getting the hot tub heated to the right temperature and getting the fire pit lit. Unfortunately, it was too cloudy at night for us to enjoy any stargazing, but the kids loved lounging in the the hammocks. Overall, we recommend staying at the Mojave Ranch!

Perfect desert retreat!

We had a great time at this perfect desert retreat. We had our 3yo with us and the location was absolutely perfect for exploring not only the park, but also Joshua Tree and 29 Palms. We liked being a little outside of town because the drive in either direction was so easy and beautiful. Our little one had a great time exploring the yard and the hammocks and hot tub and we loved the house so much that we were more than happy to have early outings and then hang out at the house, eat, and wait for the spectacular sunset and stargazing. You will not be disappointed here.

Great outdoor spaces

Loved this cool little house. It's clean, comfortable and stylish. The outdoor space is pretty cool. Loved stargazing from the hammocks and sitting around the gas fireplace.

Quiet home in the desert

Overall the house lived up to our expectations. It was a bit off the beaten path down a dirt road, which added to its charm. It was very clean, which is important to us. We were pleasantly surprised by how quiet it was in the desert. The home is conveniently located close to the park entrance. The only downside was the hot tub was a bit on the hot side. I recommend this property.
