About this property
Desert Shadows by AvantStay | Breathtaking Views & Pool
Escape to a lovely Joshua Tree retreat! This home is near the park's entrance and offers beautiful desert views. It's a peaceful and private place, close to shops and galleries in town and not far from Palm Springs attractions.
The enclosed yard is beautifully landscaped, perfect for outdoor living in California. In the summer, you can cool off in the private pool or relax in the shade of the patio lounge. There's also a tree swing for a more laid-back experience. In the winter, the home's proximity to the national park and hiking trails is great for guests. After your adventures, enjoy an alfresco meal on the outdoor dining table with a gas grill. At night, gather around the gas firepit or soak in the hot tub for starlit conversations.
Inside, the spacious single-level layout offers comfort for groups and privacy for guests. The kitchen is well-equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. There's a bistro table for two and a dining room table with seating for eight. Relax by the living room fireplace for a family game night or watch shows and movies on the smart TV. Musicians can entertain guests with the piano. The home also includes essential amenities like central air-conditioning, free WiFi, and a private washer and dryer.
Nearby Attractions: Joshua Tree National Park, Joshua Tree Village, Keys View, Hidden Valley, Barker Dam Trail, Arch Rock, Cholla Cactus Garden, Integratron.
Joshua Tree initially attracted artistic types looking for an unspoiled environment to inspire their creative side. Nowadays, it also appeals to distant travelers for its superb stargazing, mountain climbing, and vibrant art scene. Within driving distance from Los Angeles and Coachella Valley, this nature lover’s dream invites you to unplug, enjoy the outdoors, and admire the surrounding Joshua trees, of course.

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. The house was comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. The hosts were responsive and helpful. The outdoor patio, pool, hot tub and views were perfect. Great place to stay to enjoy all that Johsua Tree has to offer.
We were really happy with this house in the desert. I enjoyed the library of books, all related to some type of adventure. We enjoyed game night with the various selection of games that were available.
Beautiful house, spacious rooms with amazing desert views, gorgeous backyard , well equipped kitchen, dining room facing the backyard, perfect location just minutes from the National Park. Very good, quick and efficient communication with the manager. Wonderful vacation
We loved the house! It was perfect for 4 adults and 5 children. The kids had a great time in the yard: hot tub, pool, fire pit and grassy area. The kitchen had everything you needed and the property management even included a nice welcome package that, to my delight, included coffee! I love when a vrbo property thinks of the small things that really make a difference. The house looked nice and was very clean. Plenty of towels/linens supplied (even pool towels). The property was so close to the entrance to the park- just a few minute car ride. Would definitely rent this place again.
We are a family of nine with three children and six adults.
The property was clean and spacious. The kitchen had all the equipment/items we needed (although the dinning room table and chairs are a bit wobbly). It is pet friendly so our black lab Olive was able to come along as well.
The location was quite and just down the street from from Joshua Tree National Park.
The owner is just across the street and came by to say hello and make sure all was well.
We have rented many properties in California over the years for family trips and found this to be our favorite house!
We highly recommend it.
