    It's kind of hard to locate... Especially at night. We arrived at 9:30 pm, it was dark there without clear sign, so we spent half an hour to find the house...

    It has really great views just like living in the desert! The host was very kind and friendly, and provided very detailed instructions for checkIng in. And they also provided EV charging by request (it's charging kind of slowly though). Room was clean

    Was a little walk to the pool - and could not find it first tome wandering around the venue. Check out the map for easy access.

    A beautiful bungalow, in such a peaceful location. And perhaps the most comfortable bed and pillows ever. Wanted to buy everything to bring it home! Kitchen well stocked. Room to park car right outside. And the fire pit was lovely to enjoy sunrise

    No place to wash/dry clothing, which could be a problem for a longer stay. There is also only a shower (no bath tub). There was no place to eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner, on site (cafe was closed), so we bought simple food in town and fixed it at the homestead (the area has no nice restaurants).

    There is a very private feeling looking out on the desert, and the studio arrangement was very cute. It was nice to have a fridge and microwave, plus dishes and silverware. The huge hot tub down the walkway was also appreciated.

    When arriving in the dark, the directions on the grounds aren’t visible. It was almost impossible to find the bungalow. The warm water ran out. The amount of water in the shower is disappointing. WiFi dropped out in the evening.

    Very nice spacey bungalow, a real gem. Instructions with doorcode arrived by mail, no problems. Fully equipped kitchen. Clean++. Very nice scenery. Very quiet.

    Beautiful pet friendly property

    We probably went during their low season and it was also midweek. Everything was closed except for the office. The cafe, retreat centers, meditation halls were all closed. It got dark too fast after 5 pm and we missed the entrance. There was a lighted post and it looked like a small entrance booth once you’re close to it but a lighted sign of the property’s name by the road would have been helpful. It was a 45 mph road but most of the cars were driving 55mph or more so once you missed the exit you have to go around. A doggie bowl and some plastic poop carriers would also be a great addition for pet friendly bungalows.

    Great location. In between Joshua Tree and Yucca Valley. The property is situated inside the Joshua Tree Retreat Center. Beautiful property, lots of space and areas for solitude. The bungalow we stayed in looked quite new with newer looking furniture and kitchen wares. The front porch or yard also had a large space with lounge chairs, and a corner for having coffee or reading a book. The view near our bungalow is beautiful. I loved the Chalice Well, although I only found it on our last day. I wish we also got to use the fire pit. The fire pit’s location imbued relaxation and peace. I got to see bunnies, multiple variety of birds and even a chipmunk! Most of all, I love that the property was pet friendly so we were able to bring along our doggie.

    I can only find one point: no hairdryer… oh and maybe a too robotic reception

    It was a small heaven next to Joshua Tree. It felt like spending the night in one of those architectural marvels you find in the Case Study House magazines of the 50’s. The philosophy of this historic place has stayed perfect in tact. The room was just a little heaven.

    The location is fantastic. I came out here to reconnect. This is the perfect place, no TV, quiet, very Zen lake. You’re right next door to the national park, great hiking and views out of this world. Took a day trip to Desert Hot Springs and Paul Springs. Staff here was very accommodating. Just a truly lovely stay.

    We came from London and travelled to Joshua Tree without a vehicle (got a lift from a friend from LA) and this proved to be quite tricky. Uber's wouldn't come to the location and food deliveries got lost. We are older travellers and not so technical so found navigating the welcome details on the app a little daunting... When we called the number for help to ask about transport to Palm Springs we were told 'call a local cab' which ended up being a bit of a disaster and we booked a unsuitable vehicle, with a passenger share (still charged full price not a shared fee - $135). Car was a mess and felt unsafe. I felt the support from the hosts was poor to be honest. Also disappointed to discover our stay was Mon-Weds and the shop, cafe and events are only Thurs. - Sun. It still didn't dappen our experience too much and we would return but with a rental car and some provisions!

    Loved the bungalow and the location. Decor was midcentury delightful and all the interior furniture and decor (down to crockery and fittings and fixtures) were amazing! The views were spectacular. Peaceful, quiet, romantic and magical.

    We arrived a bit later in the day and felt the bungalows weren’t easy to locate.

    The bungalow was so well equipped with everything we needed. Loved the view from our patio and the outdoor fireplace area.
