Modern Guest House - Vintage Records, Hot Tub, 4+ Acres, Wifi, EV Charger, Views

The decor and atmosphere was really cool - vintage without feeling out-of-date. The record collection was excellent, we were constantly playing some great disco, soul, 70s rock, it was great. It was a great home base to go out into the town and also a delight to just relax and read, cook, eat, and sleep on the lazier afternoons. We'll definitely be back.

This was such a great place to stay!! Without a doubt one of the top 5 most relaxing and peaceful places I have ever stayed, and the price is a bargain for all that you get. The 70’s theme is done so well with top quality furnishings and artwork. The stairmaster, free weights, and other fitness equipment is such a bonus to have on site. The 2 hammocks outside are so comfortable and great for stargazing. The bed is very comfortable and the bedding is also top quality! There is a wide selection of music as well as DVD’s and a Roku. We did not use it but it has a working fireplace. The air conditioning cools quickly and holds a steady temp. But the absolute best feature is the jacuzzi. The powerful jets feel great but we enjoyed just sitting in the water looking at the stars with just the sound of the desert wind surrounding us. I’ve stayed other places in Joshua Tree but this one is by far the best and I hope it’s available on my next stay.

Everything was top notch. We thoroughly enjoyed our week at your holiday house. Very relaxing and very retro! We hope to come again if we decide to travel to Palm Springs.

Our stay was just what we wanted. Loved the house and how it was decorated, the location, and the beautiful views. Host was very communicative. Will definitely stay there again!

We had a great time staying at the guest house. Amazing location near to Joshua Tree shops as well as the entrance to the park. Privacy, hot tub, beautiful surroundings, and a really special designed interior full of mid century/ vintage charm. Mark was a great host and provided lots of information and referrals for local places to check out. One of the best vacation rentals I've stayed at, will definitely be looking forward to coming back!

A peaceful place to stay very relaxing

Perfect getaway for relaxation - especially with your loved one. It feels like a honeymoon suite that encompasses the great outdoors as well. There's all kinds of TV opportunities available (many options!), but we didn't bother with that - the good record player and the old LPs was all we had time for during our short 3-night stay.

Did not use the bathtub . AC could be better .

All good

Easy, restful, nice mountain and star views. Clean and comfy home

What a great place to stay, cozy, comfortable and inviting. Well stocked and a fun retro vibe. We felt right at home! We will return.

Really great place - we liked the slightly funky concrete floors, 70s retro air. The location is fantastic- so close to the Joshua Tree NP entrance and town of Joshua Tree. We stayed almost 2 weeks, so had to wash clothes- good /clean laundromat in town but not at VRBO. But the host was GREAT, and the place was fun and easy and perfect for us. Thx for a great stay.

This place was great as our home base for the week while we explored the area! It was spacious and had a lot of games/activities if you wanted a night in. I would recommend staying here and hope we get the chance to again!

The place so cutely decorated and had everything we needed. I loved the views and the neighborhood. I did not wanna leave. Marc was very communicative.

Mark was super welcoming and responsive! The pictures of this house don’t do it justice; it’s so fun, groovy, and has a wonderful ambiance. Bed is super comfy. Hot tub under the stars was the highlight. They have everything you need for an amazing stay! 100% would stay here again.

I was so pleased with my visit. Mark, our host, was so accommodating. He was quick to answer questions, and very flexible when I needed to make last minute additions -- and then subtractions -- to my guest count. I felt like I was in good hands with him as the contact/host. I loved the cozy guest house. It was a kitschy, well appointed cabin under the stars! It was a quick drive to the main road that goes through town and hits all the fun shops restaurants, but isolated enough from the main drag that we felt like we had great privacy. A highlight was taking advantage of the hot tub in the cool December evening weather, with a fantastic view of the brush around us.I was such a fan of all the Pendleton blankets that were on offer to curl up with. A surprise desert rain storm fog were no issue at all because the thermostat was in great working order so we were very warm. The aesthetic of the guest house is just very charming. It was a lovely getaway, and I will definitely return. Thank you, Mark.

We loved the location, vintage decor, record collection and player, hot tub under the stars, towels for hot tub, and generally cozy, comfortable feel.

They love this place! It was our second time staying there would definitely come back.

The host was super communicative and the guest house was incredibly well stocked -- it had everything we needed. Despite the rainy weather, we were very comfortable and cozy and our car was protected from the rain! Note, there is some construction happening next to the property, but it really didn't bother us too much. Great location right near some good spots to eat and the national park!

Left the space and the location. Being in the hot tub under the stars was divine.

Wonderful location

Very clean as always. We will be back. This is a great spot to enjoy all J Tree and the park has to offer. The host is incredible and always accommodating. We were very happy with our stay.

The Modern Guesthouse is very conveniently located near several great shops and restaurants and it was also easy to get to the JT Music Festival from there. It’s cozy, comfortable, and has a very good vibe. Mark, the host is a great communicator, responds quickly and had lots of good suggestions on things to do while we were there. I definitely recommend this location

This was the perfect spot to unwind! We were at the end of a 26 day road trip and wanted to decompress. As promised, the place is very private and quiet, but still very close to town and to the park entrance.The guest house has delightful decor with unique items throughout. There is an excellent entertainment center for TV and music. The EV charger was a convenience for us and was in great working order. The host made it clear that he was available at all times, should we need him, but his informational notebook was so complete that we just met him upon our departure. His recommendations were wonderful. Best of all is the stargazing from the hot tub and patio!

This place is a great stay and exactly as the pictures show. Its a studio but the space is larger than I expected. It has a great view of the landscape, especially at night of the city lights down the hill.We found ourselves enjoying the large and very eclectic collection of vinyl and record player. And also relaxed in the hammocks which are shaded buy a large tree.We're looking forward to future return visits.

I had an amazing time host responds fast to questions or concerns. The place was relaxing and very well clean put together. I definitely was really impressed and will definitely considering coming back.

We only stayed 2 nights so we were unable to take advantage of all the amenities this property offered: hot tub, hammocks, fire pit, records, and view. It is adorably decorated and spacious for a couple.

Large and quiet retro setting

Mark's property is tres unique! It's location on the edge of Joshua Tree National Park , the quality of accommodation, superb array of amenities, quietness, dark skies & opooptions for evening

Great location for Joshua Tree. We enjoyed the hot tub and the private, quiet location.

This place was an amazing home away from home it has everything you need and perfect for getting cozy, listening to some tunes, and playing the many games they provide in their stay. I hope to come back again waking up to silence and drinking coffee on the porch is unmatched!

We rented this on a whim to make a weekend after business in Phoenix. The property is a little has a nostalgic vibe ( to us who were in college in the 70s) but has every convenience to assure a relaxing weekend, close to Joshua Tree gates, hot tub under phenomenal stars, close saloon!

My wife and I used this vrbo as home base while hiking in JT NP for a few days. Location was great and the house had everything we needed for our four day vacation.

We had a very relaxing stay. Loved playing records while we cooked. Soaking in the hot tub. Listening to coyotes at night. Great vacation retreat.

I booked with Mark to get some fresh air & re-focus from the fires in LA. His guest house was just what I needed. His vinyl collection and stereo was a major highlight. I didn't stream anything all week! I heard some old favorites and also found some new ones.The kitchen was very well stocked with appliances, as well. Food processor, popcorn maker... If you need it, he's probably got it!Would visit again, for sure.- Samuel

Mark was an excellent host and we enjoyed our stay at their lovely house.

First, the communication, information, and directions were superb! Thanks Mark! Yes, it is down a dirt road but loved the location - away from the main road and a spacious yard/area but literally just minutes from everything you need. The retro vibe was refreshingly cool! If you want comforting, nostalgic, and retro - this is for you! The furnishings are funky yet comfortable. Kitchen is small but had everything we needed (cooked several meals). Layout is like a studio with the bed being in the same room as the living area (but set off a bit). Bed was super comfortable! Being able to listen to records was great. Used the hot tub twice a day during our stay - was perfect for getting set for a hike and then to relax after the hike. Location is convenient to the west entrance to JTNP. Overall, it was just an amazing stay!

Loved everything about it

I can’t imagine anywhere locally I would enjoy staying more tbh. The most perfect home away from home I can imagine, my only regret is not staying longer.

Love the decor and location. Mark is an exceptional host!

Lovely views of the desert and mountains, perfect location to explore Joshua Tree. Hosts were super helpful and easy to reach, loved listening to the record collection and mornings in the hot tub. We would happily return.

Lots of privacy and great location near Joshua Tree National Park. Very comfortable for two adults and everything was clean. Communication with owner was good and I would recommend this place.

Great place - Very responsive Owner and perfect location

The home was very clean, well equipped and comfortable. The retro feel was exceptional. Cool furnishings and well appointed. The record player and sound system was great. We played a ton of the vinyl albums all night. Thank you Mark
