Joshua Tree, California
PET FRIENDLY! Eclectic, artistic and private, minutes from the W. Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park and just south of the village of Joshua Tree, this mid cent. home sits on 7.5 acres of undeveloped land for wildlife viewing and bird watching (quail, roadrunners, jackrabbits &, yes, coyotes, to name a few). Wonderful Central AC for summer months, so not to worry. Pets allowed! Located in the coveted JT Highlands, Steph's boasts unobstructed views from every window, clear stars at night, & the quiet peace of the high desert all make for a glorious retreat. Fireplace, washer/dryer, all linens, fully loaded silverware, cookware and tableware set up, kitchen with all kinds of appliances (and spices) for cooking, coffee, dishwasher, WiFi throughout the home, all streaming channels and free star viewing nightly. House is full of love, comfort, & great energy. Well behaved pups are welcome (small one time $20 charge).
Talk about a great getaway. Very close to the National Park which makes it very convenient when leaving late at night. The home is very beautiful and gives a very peaceful relaxing feeling. Many great books if you want to pick one up. My sons and i enjoyed playing the board games, 90s trivia, and cards. Easy access to grill and fire place. Even my bulldog enjoyed the beautiful scenery. Love that i didnt have to take his bed. A dog bed is provided. Great communications with host. Very flex to help with early check in and late check out. Recommend if you just need getaway.
The owner of this property opens up her home to share and you can immediately tell when walking in. The house is warm and cozy with an extremely relaxing and healing vibe. We have stayed in other homes in Joshua Tree over the years, but none can compare to this; the views were excellent, the property was welcoming and for the first time in a year I finally felt myself completely relax. Steph, thank you so much for opening your home and letting us stay with you... we will most definitely be back :)
We loved this place!!! Well thought indoors and outdoors design. Views are stunning, close to the park entrance and town. Stephanie was always on top of every question we had. Definitely will be coming back soon.
Steph's home is clean, spacious, and very quiet. Situated on 7+ acres, you have a great view and no noise. Sitting on the couch or hammock on the front patio is perfect for the edges of the day. The bed is comfy and towels soft. We had a few questions and Steph immediately answered them. She is a great host. We'll be back.
It was in a great location with views of the valley near J. T. Very quiet and peaceful. Kitchen and baths were very clean and updated. Nice sitting areas outside to enjoy the birds and critters , and views. Challenges with one toilet not running correctly, and an outside light going on at 1:20 a m - waking us up and going off and repeating the situation .
My wife and I really like this place. We didn’t see any jackrabbits from the house this time (a fair number in the neighborhood, though). We did get a visit from a very cooperative roadrunner. Good views every direction. The shower, although small, has grab bars. That can be important. The other bath has a tub/shower for those of us without balance problems.
We stayed here for a family & friends hiking vacation, and it was the perfect spot to visit Joshua Tree and the surrounding area. Communication with the host was frequent and very helpful. The location is wonderful, with great views and it’s easy to get to the park. The house itself is perfect for 2 couples or a family, and has a nice kitchen, an amazing living/family room, a great 3 season room, really nice outdoor couches and spaces, and good bedrooms and bathrooms. There was also a really convenient laundry facility, and easy parking. I’ve recommended this place to a number of folks since we left, and I would stay here again and again. We stayed when it was a bit too cold to appreciate sitting outside (especially at night, when the stars are magnificent), so I’d love to come back when it’s a bit warmer. Very convenient access to shopping and grocery stores, as well as gas stations. Thanks for a great stay!
We enjoyed our stay at Steph’s, especially the views and wildlife! We had every thing we needed.
Unique artistic type of abode which fit seamlessly with surrounding desert. Great outdoor spaces to lounge in, huge windows to appreciate the location when inside, and wonderful artwork(including Steph’s paintings!) and books on the area. I had been reluctant to return to Joshua Tree because I had heard more crowded, but this house ideal for easy drive to park early when screeds haven’t showed up and then returning to the house where you can relax outside in a quiet sanctuary. Roadrunners, quail, jackrabbits, coyotes, etc were the entertainment from the comfy outdoor sitting areas. Bird calls were the soundtrack. Short stretch of dirt road to get to the house which took a little concentration in a Prius but definitely worth it! So glad I booked this house
Very quiet with a gorgeous view
Comfortable, with lots of windows to enjoy the views. If you plan on doing much cooking, you may find the kitchen awkward, but it worked fine for us. Very convenient to JTNP.
Steph's place is amazing and wonderful! The touches, the amenities, all of it, inside and out. My grown (30's) children stayed there and were comfortable and impressed. They said the Bird TV was top-notch! Stephanie was super responsive and helpful. Fantastic!
Enjoyed the wildlife.
Roomy with beautiful views and comfortable outdoor space. Close to town and supplies as well as to Joshua Tree National Park. We enjoyed being outdoors and walking in the area. Son-in-law enjoyed biking. Nice family time.
Stephanie's property is located very closer to JTNP with views to forever. The property was well stocked and clean. Our bed was comfy and it was very quiet. Got to see a bobcat stroll by on the patio and a coyote in the distance, so that was very exciting. Only glitch was operating the TV, but Stephanie was very helpful. All it needed were new batteries. All in all a pleasant stay in a uniquely beautiful area.
For all the help and communication! K
Stephanie was super responsive and was very helpful leading up to our stay. House looks as pictured in the post and kept us warm during the cold winter! You can tell someone lives in the house as there were dog beds, filled medicine cabinets, etc. but overall for the price, was a great stay! Cute neighborhood too.
We stayed for a week and really enjoyed it. Very low density subdivision with no paved roads. Host is great
Very comfortable home with lots of interesting touches. Far enough from town to feel right in the desert but close to amenities.
What a wonderful place to stay. Thank you Steph for being such a gracious host and allowing us to us your beautiful home as our JT vacation Basecamp. 10 of 10!
Wonderful property. Wildlife elsewhere. We saw coyotes an s a Road Runner, fortunately at different times not chasing each other!
The house was so beautiful and relaxing. There was so much wildlife that we could see thru the windows. The couch and beds were super comfortable. And just a 6 min drive to the Main Street in town. We had the best time and will definitely come back.
We really like this place. Quiet location on a dirt road with lots of wildlife. Very comfortable, beautiful piece of desert
This home has so much character! The desert is beautiful with an abundance of wildlife. Stephanie was a great host and very attentive!
