Other things to note:

🜂 Additional guests are not permitted on the property beyond those included in your rental agreement unless you request and receive permission from us. That includes day guests and overnight guests.

🜂 We are dog friendly ($75 pet fee), but we ask that our fur friends are not on the furniture. Please let us know at the time of booking if you will be bringing your dog. If your dog leaves any stains or damage behind then the damage will be assessed and charges will incur.

🜂 We have a septic system so it's important that you put NOTHING except toilet paper into the toilet

🜂 Please plan to bring your own firewood if you would like to use the fire pit. We highly recommend purchasing firewood locally to prevent the spread of disease that can be found in wood outside our area.

🜂 No smoking in or outside of property

🜂 For events and / or photoshoots; please reach out to us and we can discuss pricing.

🜂 Please note that the desert landscape, while beautiful, can be harsh and unforgiving. Many of the plants in our yard and throughout the area have sharp thorns and tips including gorgeous Joshua Trees. Use extreme caution when you or your animals are enjoying the yard or the area in general.

🜂 The Hi Desert Onyx is in a lightly-populated, quiet rural area. As such, sound travels quite far in the desert air, particularly at night. Please be respectful of our local neighbors and refrain from loud noises outside after 10pm or before 7am.

🜂 Cowboy pool is seasonal. Available April - November

Perfect Desert Giveaway

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at the Onyx! Centrally located and easy to get to some great hikes and Joshua Tree. The property was vast and beautiful and the home was super cozy. We were able to truly unplug. Stargazing from the hot tub was magical. Highly recommend!

Great option in yucca

We had to scramble to find a place since our other Vrbo home cancelled on us days before Xmas and checkin so we were thankful to find this place and it had all we were needing. The host was very responsive and eager to eradicate our issue when we showed up at check in and the cleaning crew had JUST arrived and made us wait on hour outside. Idk if there was a mix up with the cleaning service but while it was an inconvenience to us they did give us immediate resolve. Sadly due to rushing the cleaning process wasn’t as thorough as it maybe normally would be. I will also note that while the house had all we need they didn’t have all the dishes stated and if we had had more people two forks wouldn’t work. There was also one bowl, we are two people. So stuff like that wasn’t maintained. They did notify us to bring wood for the fire pit which I’m super grateful for but will note they didn’t have any fire tools to remove the scalding hot lid or poke fire and all the torches to start the fire were all empty so we had to go and purchase our own. Just needs a better eye on those small details in my opinion but was great otherwise. Easy check in/check out and great communication. Saved for future visits as the outdoor amenities and lack of light pollution made a great trip of hot tub/fire relaxing and stargazing.
