Stephanie was very responsive when i messaged her with questions before and during our stay. The property was extremely beautiful and loved the interior design as well. Easy to check in and check out. Even though we only stayed 1 night, i highly recommend this stay!

We loved this place and the location, and the host was very responsive and friendly. Be aware that the pool/hot tub is seasonal, and we accidentally read over that upon booking. Great spot if you’re looking to explore Joshua Tree, and only about 45 mins from Palm Springs. We had a great time!
