This was the perfect getaway for a family trip. We loved Spin & Margies! It was close to the park entrance but still away from the main drag. Our host was great. Communication was easy and warm hearted. We will be returning.

Almost excellent stay! The kitchen was hard to work with due to size and lack of stove (there were electric hot plates) since we were staying three days and cooking. Views are great and other accommodations great!

I'll start with the good. This is a quiet compound with a cool vibe, a neat pool, and easy access to Joshua Tree National Park. Now the bad. We discovered numerous dead bugs in the bed as well as a few long black hairs (neither my girlfriend nor I have black hair). We attempted to contact the host to resolve this issue, and they did not respond. The unit also lacked privacy. First, someone could look right into the bathroom. In addition, the front door had a window which was barely covered by a see-through veil, providing a direct line of sight to the bed. It was very uncomfortable to be so exposed.

Close to everything, clean, cute, great patio outside. This was perfect - had absolutely everything we needed. The host was so nice and communicative with the couple questions we had - and so quick to answer. Great for renting one unit but now we want to come back and bring a group of friends - it's perfect for either!

Beautiful property, peaceful stay!

Number 3 was blissfully air conditioned when we arrived on a hot afternoon. The interior was lovely and the beds comfortable. The property was quiet. And when I accidentally left my phone in the room after checkout, one of the proprietors graciously let me back in. We’ll definitely be back!

Alien Vibes :)

It was very charming clean cottage. In the best way possible it kind of has an alien vibes. You can wonder around the compound, which is a feast for the eyes, with many interesting and eclectic artifacts to view We only stayed a night but it was great. We sat in our private patio, looking at the most amazing stars, and hearing the coyotes in the distance All and all it was wonderful

Love how cozy the place is. Slept like a baby. Area feels safe. Place has complete amenities. Very good for its price. Would appreciate it if they added mirrors outside the bathroom. Other than that would recommend and book again.

Wonderful, quiet, beautiful unique place

I stayed for 2 nights and found it to be very relaxing. This is a very original kind of place, maybe not for everyone. It is not like a chain motel, it has real character.

Great Oasis in the Desert

We had a wonderful stay at Spin & Margie's (not the actual names of the owners haha) for our girls' weekend. The 3rd room was perfect for three of us with three beds, and the little kitchen was enough for our needs. We enjoyed takeout dinner in the courtyard each night, watched the sunset from our patio, and watched movie in the room. The owners were very friendly and responsive, and the whole place was very cute. There's even a heated pool (which I missed when booking so we didn't have swimsuits). We will definitely stay here when we visit Joshua Tree again. We can't wait to come back!
