    Draft from third bedroom. The house is listed as a two bedroom so we didn't need to use the third bedroom which had a big draft from the ceiling. The power cut out while we were there but that was no fault of the house.

    Great location with a well decorated house.

    This isn't the owner's fault. Still, when we first tried to find the home through Google Maps, we were accidentally led into a completely different home where the homeowner, frustratingly came out and explained how to get to our home. She had multiple people come to her property and attempt to drive through it to reach the home, so much so that she immediately knew which home we were trying to go to and how even to go there. So heads up, if the dirt road that you enter doesn't have the home address number at the entrance (62828), then don't go in)

    We went to Joshua Tree to find an isolated plot of land to see the night sky without any light pollution from the town, which is exactly what we got. It was also incredibly close to the national park's west entrance so that was convenient, as well as being close to the town. The home didn't seem much at first from the outside but when we stepped in, the living space, bedrooms the bathrooms were all wonderful and clean. The backyard was a nice place to have dinner and barbecue meat; they even had a fire pit to burn some logs in the night.

    The outdoors needs some maintenance - the brick tile floor is shaky, the outdoor bathtub was muddy as it was not covered, the chair near the outdoor fireplace was torn and not usable, windows need proper locks, the drive way entry needs to be marked with bigger sign - it was difficult in the night to find and get into the driveway.

    Cozy 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment. Interiors are well maintained and well thought supplies made available to make the stay comfortable. The property is a few minutes drive away from the highway as well as the entrance to the Park. Host instructions were clear and to the point.

    unfinished appearance of exterior, lack of clear directions to find it (photos of the spot where the dirt track leaves the main road would have been better than the second google pin as that led me on a wild goose chase)

    beds were very comfortable, kitchen was modern and had a good range of equipment, nice sitting areas, car port

    Great location - very close to the park entrance and some popular trails. The house itself was also in a nice location, nestled in the desert. It was also close to Joshua Tree City. The house was clean and comfortable, with all the necessary kitchen items and bathroom toiletries.

    Communications started with the booking through booking.com. We were a party of three that needed two bedrooms. First confirmation said 2 people, 1 bedroom. Issuue had to filter down several levels of administration to get matters straightened. Turned out house had three bedrooms. Didn't need or use it, but third party in the group incurred $50 extra charge. We never quite sure what would await us, but all was well. Around surrounding the house could standing some tidying yo to make sitting area more inviting.

    No breakfast provided. But that was stated up front. So problem there.

    The location of the house was great, you’re just a few minutes from the park entrance and a few minutes from the town. The night sky was spectacular and the house had everything we needed from kitchen utensils to hair dryers. Also the beds were comfy and the heating worked well! Make sure to follow the exact instructions of how to get there. If you miss your turn, go back and take the correct one instead of thinking “well Google says there’s another road we can take” - don’t! 😁

    The facilities provided would have been ample only if the most common ones were usable. The coffee maker was already used and had a moth resting inside the brewing compartment. The house has enough rooms but not big enough, due to which there were small beds which made it very uncomfortable for us, traveling with our infant. Many of the showpieces had spiderwebs running from them to the nearest wall or curtain. Since there is no guardrail or fencing around the property, it seemed very unsafe to sit or stay outside in the backyard at night.

    The location was superb as it is only 4 minutes from the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park. It is in the middle of the desert so a good spot for star-gazing, however, we weren't lucky enough as the moon was pretty bright during our stay.

    Property had trash in a bin outside one of the bedroom windows. The irrigation system was left on so my husband turned it off and contacted the PM. The gas stove exploded with a high burst of flame, we had it turned to low, the flame burnt my eyelashes.

    The bed was very comfortable.

    Security did not meet our expectations

    Location is a 10, very quiet and natural. Close to park entrance. Pretty trees and cacti. Cowboy tub is relaxing. Bathrooms and interiors good standard. But we didn’t feel secure as the windows remain open for the swamp cooler to work. There was just a thin mesh which could have been cut if someone wanted to break in at night.
