    We really enjoyed our stay!! The property is new, cute and very clean with easy check in. The backyard is amazing, safely fenced up. The hot tub and hammock for stargazing were so fun. Absolutely nothing to complain about. Above and beyond our expectation.

    This is a great house. Really comfortable and private. Owner definitely paid attention to detail to create a true home away from home experience. Not far from the park. Will definitely stay here again!

    The place was really nice, newly renovated and clean—nice fresh towels and linens. Well stocked kitchen and good coffee. A great value, esp the hot tub. Very private. The skies were much darker than where I live, and I saw more stars than usual, but still couldn’t quite see the Milky Way! Be sure to use the directions from the host, to stay on paved roads. If you let Google Maps bring you, you’ll end up on some dirt roads. (They're not bad—just drive slow.)

    We really enjoyed our five nights stay in the house. Everything was perfect. The backyard was great for Astro photography, which is my hobby. We will definitely stay here again when we go through Joshua tree.

    We had an outstanding stay at Roadrunner House! The house was perfectly clean when we walked in, and everything we needed during our stay was provided. The neighborhood is nice and quiet, and with very little light pollution in the neighborhood the stargazing was excellent. We spent a lot of time by the fire (the fire pit is outstanding). The views of the surrounding hills are beautiful, and my daughter loved lounging in the hammocks. We would absolutely book again!

    Great 4th of July her away from the noisy city. Plenty of space to run around and relax. All what we needed outside and in the house. Definitely stay here again and recommend to others. A

    The stay was nice. Great house with a beautiful little backyard. The only hiccup is that the code provided was not correct and we did not get a response until more than 24 hours later luckily we were able to get into the house around back, but this forced us to be unable to properly lock the house when we left for the day. All in all it was a solid stay. Hopefully the kinks with the check in can be smoothed out.

    We had a wonderful time in the Roadrunner house! It's decorated well, was clean, and the hot tub which we used every night of our stay was so great. Swinging in the hammock at night looking up at the stars is something not to be missed. The toilet is a little small, but that won't stop us from booking this space again!

    Keep in mind the road google maps leads you to isn’t paved! You can pass it and go down the next one. Great place to stay!

    Quit, close enough to town. Clean, has all the amenities. Hot tub and fire pit were a hit!

    This house is exactly as advertised! This is a great location, and it's a cozy house for a couple or a family. Even in triple digits, the AC keeps the house nice and cool.
