About this house rental

Perched on a hill top with 5 private acres in Yucca Valley, CA, our house is surrounded by ancient oaks, junipers, yuccas and Joshua trees, giving you 365 degree views of the entire high desert and starry sky at night. Its close to Pappy & Harriets, Pioneertown if you’re in the mood for live music, while also an ideal quiet retreat for writers, musicians and the creative mind. A drive to the Joshua Tree National Park is 15 minutes away.

The retreat is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom house sleeping 2-6. The Master Bedroom has a NEW King size bed, high thread-count linens, with a stunning view overlooking the valley. The Second bedroom has a NEW Queen bed and enjoys a quiet view of our private outdoor area. Additional guests may sleep on the day bed and comfy sofa in the TV lounge, while we’ve also provided an air mattress with extra linens and blankets located in the master hall closet.

We have a whole cupboard of games for trivia and strategy enthusiasts. And drawers full of crafts. Families with children and kids welcome.

The kitchen is modernized with a stainless refrigerator, dishwasher, small stainless wine fridge, fully stocked with utensils, cutlery, etc, and ample space for meal preparation. Our indoor and outdoor dining tables seat 6 plus.

There is a grand piano next to the TV lounge and antique furniture we’ve carefully chosen throughout which we feel adds a personal and unique touch to our home.

A BBQ grill sits next to the outdoor dining patio for meals under the stars, while the jacuzzi lies not too far away, but unobstructed from clear sunset and night sky views.
There is a washer and dryer for those planning longer stays, central heat and AC keep things comfortable all year round and WiFi throughout.
The TV is a smart TV, (we do not have cable) with a DVD player and (mostly childrens) DVDs for entertainment.

There is also a surveillance camera at the entry of the home for safety.

Guest access
Guests will have access to our 5 beautiful acres of private land, ample paved parking and a covered carport, with access to our entire home.

There is a trampoline on the property. Please use at your own risk. By booking the property, you release the owners of any injury and liability associated with the trampoline use.

Interaction with guests
Your privacy is very important to us. We visit the retreat as often as we can and ensure its well maintained, however in general we wont be able to greet you in person when you arrive.
The house has 24hour access with a keyless entry, though we ask you call the day of arrival, at least two hours in advance, or before 10pm, with an arrival time so that we may turn off the security alarm before you arrive.
Please feel free to email or call us with any questions you might have or if you’d like recommendations, we’d love to share them! Our Yucca Valley contact Meg is available if you need immediate help. We do our best to respond the very same day and hope you enjoy staying in our mountain retreat as much as we do.

    A Serene Desert EscapeOur stay at this secluded desert retreat was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely removed from the hustle of Las Vegas and immersed in tranquility. The property is beautifully integrated into the landscape—private, peaceful, and surrounded by stunning desert views, especially at sunset.The home itself is warm, inviting, and full of charm. Every detail—from the natural landscaping to the cozy interior—reflects a thoughtful touch. We spent our days exploring the area and our evenings unwinding under the stars. Our dog, loved roaming the property and relaxing with us on the porch.This was the perfect place to disconnect, recharge, and enjoy quality time as a family. We’re so grateful for the experience and can’t wait to return. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a quiet, soul-soothing getaway.

    The property was very convenient for the plans we made for our stay. But, there were concerns upon arriving. Check in instructions were to notify the host 2 hours prior to arrival so the alarm could be turned off. After 3 attempts to contact, we finally heard from the host. The property is on an unpaved road--something I did not see in the writeup. It would be good to know as some travelers prefer not to drive on unpaved roads. The house number sign was on the ground/missing some of the numbers. An abandoned car and broken AC unit were in the front yard along with a pop up camper that had seen much better days. Not the first impression we were expecting. While I appreciate French Country/Shabby Chic design, I didn't expect to see stained, torn and worn out furniture. There were a few cleanliness issues (cobwebs, refrigerator water/ice dispenser needed a good cleaning). Cabinet doors needed to be adjusted. Many dishes were chipped...a concern for harboring bacteria. The hairdryer in the master bathroom should be replaced and a handheld shower wand addition would make showering much easier as the shower head is just too low. There were some things that we very much enjoyed--the backyard seating/view was fantastic and we enjoyed the hot tub! The convenience of a washer/dryer on the property was greatly appreciated. The beds were VERY comfortable and the robes for both bedrooms was a nice touch. We made the best of our stay, but doubt we would stay here again.

    We had a great time for NYE. Myself, my wife and our friends came for a few days to celebrate the new year. The house is excellent, the views are unreal, and the host is helpful and responsive.

    The house is uniquely perched on top of a hill, providing specular mountain views. The house and particularly the kitchen was well equipped. The French country interior was inviting and furniture was comfy.

    This is a wonderful place to stay when visiting Joshua Tree! The hot tub helped us recover from our hikes and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We appreciated the games and the well appointed kitchen too. Our family highly recommends this property and hopes to return someday.

    This is a great location for a relaxing weekend: hot tub, fire pit, grill, everything you need.
    10.0 / 10.0
    Perfect location for the views. The house sits on a hill and has great views from all four sides of the property. We liked that the back yard had three separate sitting areas depending on how much sun you wanted, from none to full. It was very clean and supplied with everything we needed. Very nice hot tub.
