Desert Playground - hot tub, dipping pool, hammocks, stargazing, dog friendly!

Unique place. Secluded and private. A lot of nice views for the perfect pictures. Thhe house is well equipped. Everything you need for a a relax stay.

What a magical beautiful place

The host communicated well about the room/ stay. The house was clean and dog friendly. My boyfriend and I brought our dogs to stay and although the property itself was not enclosed, it was a large enough space where they could easily run around. The property was secluded enough to be peaceful while at the house. The house was very close to Joshua tree national park which is why we chose to stay there. It’s also close to pioneer town which we decided last minute to make a pit stop since we were close.

We had a wonderful time!

The property was beautiful. A 4 week drive car should be recommended, the dirt roads to the property can get sandy and a tow costs quite a bit.

Beautiful house. And an amazing place to stargaze / watch the Perseid Meteor Shower.

Has all the needed amenities and more. Peaceful and quiet, close to JT National Park. We brought the dog, I will not in the future and wouldn’t recommend due to the heat, the ground is, too hot to bring fur creatures anywhere. I would recommend the stay :)

OMG! Best house in the desert ever! Great location, options galore, well stocked and comfy beds. This is a must stay if your looking for something in the Joshua tree area.

All and then some! Had a fabulous time at Andrew's place, everything was has described and the sunsets alone made it worth it! Would definitely stay again!

Clean, comfortable, beautiful setting.

This property was perfect for our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children under 11). Our children stayed comfortably in the primary bedroom and my husband and I took the second bedroom/bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped and everything was clean. We had a great time stargazing in the backyard, having fires in the fire pit, and exploring Joshua Tree National park. The plunge pool and spa were an added treat. I also loved how off the beaten path the property felt, but how near it was to the necessities like grocery stores, etc. I would definitely recommend this property to other families looking for fun in the desert!

What a fun and unique property. The location was great for exploring Joshua Tree from both North entrances. Also pretty perfectly located in-between the towns of 29 Palms and downtown Joshua Tree. The turn off for Lee Rd was a bit tricky in the dark and the road was just fine even in our super low clearance rental car... What a treat to roll in in the dark and wake up in Wonderland! It was so awesome to come back from the park and chill in the hot tup - wow was there a star show! and hearing coyotes in the distance was a treat too. The beds were heaven, the decor is adorable and we will absolutely be back!

My husband and I spent a relaxing weekend here. We enjoyed the the location between Yucca and Joshua Tree. The house was easy to get to and access to Joshua Tree NP was easy and not as busy as the other entrance. We grilled outside and enjoyed the hot tub after a fun day of hiking in the park. The neighbors were quiet and it was nice and dark for star gazing. Definitely read the info book, as our water pressure was low, and it would have been an easy adjustment if we had read the book before checkout. It does have a dirt road to the house but there is a paved spot to park and our little Honda with low profile tires had no issue getting out to the house. Overall it was an excellent stay!

We will be back to stay longer. Very relaxing and very clean. Had everything we needed. It was just 2 of us and we truly enjoyed our time!

We stayed here for 5 nights during our move out from Twentynine Palms. The beds are super comfy. The views are amazing! All the amenities are as described. Any issues we encountered were either addressed in the prpperty guide, or quickly answred byt the owner. The only slight concern we had was, each road into the property is a single lane dirt road. However, there is very little traffic so this did not end up being an issue.We would definitely recommend!

My wife and I stayed here after the election and it was just what we needed to decompress and re-energize. The property is quite isolated, which is what we were looking for, but close to two entrances to Joshua Tree National Park. The hot tub is great and the decor in the place was charming and welcoming. We absolutely loved it.

This was a lovely, well equipped, immaculately clean house, full of useful amenities, with a lovely outdoor setup that includes a spa, fire-pit, hammock, and bbq. The downside for us was that it was not quite the private, secluded, peaceful stargazing trip we needed. During our stay, there was a group of RVs, trucks, and ATV's partying all night each day well into the early morning- loud music, ATV sounds. The host communicated well and was empathetic, but there was nothing much they could do outside of lodging a complaint to the city. The host mentioned they are only there a few times a year, so other visitors may not have that experience or mind it.

This place is even more lovely in person. Andrew’s home had everything we wanted to enjoy a relaxing time in the desert. He was easy to communicate with and our whole experience was flawless. I highly recommend this VRBO!

Desert Playground is highly recommended…would play here again! ?The indoor space was great for two people and two four-leggers. Wife and I loved the décor and the amenities. Too numerous to list but really liked the neon sign, the bidet, live plants, and the comfy bed. Nice touches. The outdoor space was something to behold and perfect for all kinds of impromptu photo shoots. Nice location for some drone footage too. It was very central to the things we wanted to do: Pioneertown (27 min), Glass Outhouse Gallery (17 min), Pappy and Harriet’s (27 min), etc. The hot tub was in such a neat little area. The remote bathtubs were so unique (and really fancy looking). Loved the chillin’ area right off the primary bedroom too. Last, our host was super responsive and I imagine if we had any issues he would have been on top of it. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thanks Andrew!

Great place to just enjoy the view.

At first glance you get a little worried because nobody is around but then the quiet sounds of the desert are calming. When the sun starts to set that’s a sight itself that’s not even including the stars at night! The inside was beautiful and I loved the living room. Also, Andrew answered fast if there was any question. You will run into an ant here or there but overall I really enjoyed this place. Highly recommend and definitely a stress reliever. Thanks again Andrew.
