    My girls and I wanted to see an unobstructed view of the meteor shower. We booked as a last minute overnight and had an amazing time! The property is spectacular, has great views, and makes a great indoor/outdoor retreat! We can’t wait to come back again. Book this property! You will not be disappointed!!

    Had a wonderful time at the “Box on the Rox” container home! It is very well designed and comfortably laid out. Plenty of room for our group of three. Everything we needed was provided and check in was a breeze. The deck area outside was a perfect spot to enjoy the gorgeous evening sunsets and starlit sky. If you’re looking for a perfect location to enjoy Joshua Tree Nat’l Park, this is it! Would definitely stay again.

    I highly recommend this house for its excellent location and uniqueness. 3 very comfortable bedrooms and 2 full baths allowed us to spread out. The outdoor space is amazing - from the pool to the roof deck and garage door to the kitchen - we spent so much time outside enjoying the sunrise and star gazing. Could not find a better location if planning a trip to Joshua Tree

    The place was perfect for a mom and two teen boys. The beds were comfortable, the amenities were lovely, and the place was close to everything Joshua Tree. I thought it was a very reasonable price for all the things that were included. And the pool was a hit with my kids.

    Everything from booking to the stay was with ease. Location was easy to find and accessible to stores if needed but remote enough to relax and enjoy the night time desert sky.
