Nice desert home

This house definitely makes you feel like you’re in the desert. The house is spacious and clean. There’s a ping pong table in the garage and a hot tub in the backyard. It’s minutes from Joshua Tree National park. Yucca Valley is about a 10 minute drive and has tons of restaurants and stores(Walmart, Walgreens, McDonald’s, Starbucks, Del Taco, etc.). The host was helpful and responsive when we needed something. This is a great location for the desert feel while still being close to a larger town.

Great Place!

We did a quick 2-night stay on our way from California to Missouri. Our daughrer (has a one-year old) and her husband joined us. Close to the park and town but far enough out that it is very peaceful. Roomy, clean, responsive host and convenient. What more could you want.Thanks Sati!!

Great desert getaway

We really enjoyed this house for our week-long getaway in Joshua tree. The house was comfortable, cozy and peaceful. We enjoyed the backyard shade in the mornings and front porch shade in the afternoons. We grilled and ate outside. We soaked in the hot tub. The property was very quiet which was lovely. The kitchen had everything we needed, the living room was comfortable. There is a ping pong table in the garage that we never used, but it looked super fun. Nice trees and plants around the property. Close location to town with great restaurants and fun shops and close to Joshua Tree National Park entrance which made it easy to go hiking at various times of the day throughout the week. I would highly recommend.

We had an amazing few nights! The house was cozy without being cluttered, it was clean without being fussy, it had a ton of towels and blankets but still had lots of closet space for all our stuff. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you might need and there’s grocery stores 10 minutes away. So glad we came here for our memorable trip!

A great place for families, groups of friends, a couple, or even a solitary person. This house offers a peaceful, artful home in which to recharge. On a quiet street with easy access to the beautiful park and the sweet town of Joshua Tree. This was my third time at the Oasis, and I'll keep coming back. It's become a home away from home!

Family Getaway

We arrived at the house around a little after 3. It is on a beat up dirt road, needed to drive very slow. Once we unloaded everything, we felt the magical vibe of the house, not fancy but JT comfortable. The primary bedroom is so large, 2 of us did yoga in it. The back yard was nice and spacious too with a family sized dining table, We enjoyed watching the sunset from the amazing Jacuzzi. The Kitchen had everything we needed. A few more wine glasses would be nice. We did not turn on the TV the whole time, we just enjoyed the vibe. We played some of their board games after dinner. I slept great as it is so It is quiet. I would book again.
