Eric's home was a perfect spot for our family of 4 (kids, 13 and 8). He was very responsive and his home had everything we needed. It was close enough to stores and restaurants but, far enough to enjoy the desert landscape and sky at night.

Served the need…

The location of the property is good - very close to Joshua Tree National Park. The cleanliness and presence of the house needs improvement (couch is torn and very stained, broken furniture, wipe out the fridge, clean the floors in the bedrooms and kitchen, throw out expired food items in pantry and fridge, and discard the expired toiletries that are in the bathroom). The outside of the house is in some disrepair. The owner did communicate check-in process prior to the visit which was appreciated. This could be a nice place with more attention to details that help improve the overall feel of the place.

Magical nature & special house (but in need of some TLC)

Perfect Joshua Tree location! Feels private and peaceful, incredible star views and unobstructed views, while also being only 15 minutes to the main drag. House has a wonderful energy, Eric was an easy host to communicate with, and we loved playing the keyboard at the house. Unfortunately I do have to mention that the house is in need of a deep clean, as well as some repairs (wall behind toilet in bad shape, chipped paint and cement floor, lots of big spiders have moved...) It did affect our comfort with our toddler. But for someone else this issues may not be a bother. We still enjoyed having a place to rest our heads between being outside at the park.

Much-needed desert trip

Serene with views. We spent our week hiking in Joshua tree national Park, and on the full moon, we night-hiked from the property up a rocky mountain, roughly a mile from the property for majestic nighttime views. A huge plus for us was the remote nature of the property – it is a brief 10 minute drive from town, but for our family felt nice to have peace in the desert solitude. A couple pros that often go unmentioned: the beds are extremely comfortable! As I approach middle age, nothing can bring down a trip like a bad night of sleep, and I slept like a baby at this property. I actually contacted Eric to find out what the mattresses were 🤣 Eric was very responsive, and we felt very welcome. The living room/hang out area is very warm, comfortable, and it’s good for a small group of people. Having stayed at two other VRBO properties in the area, they were both very nice, but lacked comfortable couches and ‘hang out’ chairs. The inside is colorful, clean, and has a very warm vibe. At the risk of being two new-agey, the place feels like there have been many happy gatherings. Word has it, you shouldn’t feed the neighbors goats! If there were one thing that was maybe challenging, there isn’t a ton of space for dry food. This is irrelevant for most people who go out to eat. For us, we are foodies and like to prepare meals. Kitchen was very functional and was good for preparing meals.. We will definitely return!

Once you find the place you’ll love it. The kitchen is well appointed and basically three bedrooms. Due babysitting issues our girls trip turned into kids joining our group. We had everything including baby goats to view. It’s was relaxing place and wonderful star gazing. Thanks Eric for sharing your place with my friends.

Charming Modest Desert House

Eric was very responsive and the house was well suited for our needs. Its an excellent location for north or west access to the Joshua Tree National Park and has good grocery shopping options in Yucca valley or Twenty Nine Palms. The house is casual, well laid out with a lived in vibe. Everything worked. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. There was plenty of room for us 5 adults and our dog. Being isolated from town with lots of space outdoors worked well (for games and walking). Sunrises were beautiful.
