Wonderful stay, and we'll be back!

We had a wonderful time in the Roadrunner house! It's decorated well, was clean, and the hot tub which we used every night of our stay was so great. Swinging in the hammock at night looking up at the stars is something not to be missed. The toilet is a little small, but that won't stop us from booking this space again!

We really enjoyed our stay!! The property is new, cute and very clean with easy check in. The backyard is amazing, safely fenced up. The hot tub and hammock for stargazing were so fun. Absolutely nothing to complain about. Above and beyond our expectation.

Peaceful and relaxing stay

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a few nights while exploring Joshua Tree National Park. This place had everything you could need from toiletries to a humidifier in the bedroom. We enjoyed the hot tub on cold nights and the hammocks out back fo star gazing. The property is very peaceful and there is a resident great horner owl in the tree out front that was cool. Highly recommend

Our stay

The stay was nice. Great house with a beautiful little backyard. The only hiccup is that the code provided was not correct and we did not get a response until more than 24 hours later luckily we were able to get into the house around back, but this forced us to be unable to properly lock the house when we left for the day. All in all it was a solid stay. Hopefully the kinks with the check in can be smoothed out.

Awesome Spot !

Honestly a perfect place to stay in Joshua Tree. Super clean and well kept property with all the amenities we could have needed. I can’t say that I had one bad thing to say about the place. Jacuzzi was great for the two of us and the views from the backyard are unreal. Thanks for a great trip!

Amazing!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for the weekend and we fell in love with this house! The livingroom and kitchen are so nice, I love the hanging chairs and I like that they have games and books for people to enjoy! The rooms and bathroom were so nice and clean, big extremely comfortable king bed in the main room, slept like a baby. The back yard is by far my favorite! They have more outside games and areas to sit and relax. I really like that they provided some firewood for us, unfortunately we didn't use it, but it was nice that they did that :) We really enjoyed the hammocks! Feels nice to lay down and enjoy the sunset and at night was the best being under the stars, so beautiful! Overall, this was the best place I have ever stayed at and will definitely stay here again!! Thank you much we really enjoyed it! 😊

A good friend and I enjoyed this property for our girls getaway. The house was well appointed with a neat kitchen that we used for cooking all of our meals, comfy beds with AC units in every room. The bathroom was clean, the house was well decorated and it was super quiet at night.

Amazing property with all the amenities you’ll need for a perfect getaway. A quite space very close to Joshua tree national park entrance with breath taking views. My partner and I loved watching sunsets from the hot tub every evening!
