    Our stay was amazing! Clean, comfortable and within walking distance to some really nice restaurants like Kitchen in the Desert, 29 Palms Beer and GRND Squirrel. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking for a place to chill out for a short or long stay in 29 Palms. The accommodations were comfortable and the jacuzzi was an added bonus. I would return!

    One of the most well-stocked vacation homes I've stayed in. The owner put a lot of thought into guest comfort and convenience. Plus the location is great. I wish I could have stayed longer!

    Nothing.

    Everything! It was nicely decorated, had everything I needed and very comfortable with lots of extras. Wish I didn’t have to work as much since I would have loved to play the games in the closet. Kitchen had everything including a Keurig. Great because I like to travel with my favorite Starbucks pods. At first I plugged in the wrong location to get to the Naval Hospital so I thought the commute would be 48 minutes. When I re-entered it correctly it turned out to be only 11 minutes. Awesome! Washer/dryer unit came in handy! Hope it’s available next year when I return for our annual onsite provider training. Loved the different scented soaps & shampoo. What you see in the photos is exactly what to expect, again, with a little extras. Also, I really appreciate working with Melissa, a super host!!! ❤️

    Thoughtful and tasteful -- the house was beautifully done up, the furniture and facilities were fantastic, the host (Melissa) clearly put in a lot of thought into every detail. Clean, comfortable and conveniently located -- only 5 minutes' drive from the entrance of Joshua Tree National Park; very close to the restaurants in 29 Palms. Host par excellence -- Melissa was a fantastic host; she was super responsive to our every need.

    Nothing. Couldn’t find any faults

    Super cool vibe. Great decor. Felt very homely. Could not be closer to JTNP North entrance. Melissa was ready helpful prior to arrival providing local info. Really good instructions at property. Couldn’t ask for anymore. Great place to chill after a couple of long days in the park.

    The hot tub wasn't ready even though we asked for more than 8 hours prior to arriving. The outside was not clean, not maintained. There was some garbage outside when we arrived. The Wi-Fi instructions were not clear. Some of us couldn't use Wi-Fi. The outside chairs were so dirty. There was instruction for putting all the linens in the laundry basket but we couldn't find it so we put it in the bathtub.

    The host was very helpful for answering all the questions. The inside was clean. We had enough towels and sheets. Nice decor. The air conditioning was good. The kitchen suply was good.

    Hot tub was dysfunctional and half the reason I booked it. Kitchen had just enough to work with but could use some simple upgrades to be more usable.

    We did not end up staying here because of safety concerns and location. I was told that we would only have to pay a cleaning fee but to date I still have not been credited the rental fee.
