Jessica's cabin was IDEAL. Completely as described, if not better. Communication was easy and consistent, the cabin offered clean, comfortable accomodations (wow the pillows!), quiet, stars, and blue blue desert sky. Completely a 5 star stay.

This cabin exceeded my expectations!! I spent a solo trip up there. Spent the day seeing art for Desert X, I am always blown away with the beauty of the desert along with getting to see some cool art pieces as well! Pappy and Harriet's for a late night show. Spent some time doing yoga at the house and enjoying the solitude. Saw an epic sunset at the Daniel Popper "Transmission" sculpture (6 mins from cabin) Saw the best sunrise ever and saw the beautiful bright moon and many stars. Would 10/10 stay here again and hope to be able to come spend many more moments here. Great host, clean space, as advertised, incredible space for a little desert get away!!

Jessica’s cabin is cute and comfortable! It was the perfect size with plenty of space for comfort. Not too big or not too small! I’ve stayed at a few places in JT and this one is by far one of my favorites. Considering all the amenities, location, and overall comfort I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking to visit the area. Bonus points: Comfy bed Great views Privacy Fun off-roading opportunities close by 10/10 kitchen Cute little table outside on the deck

We loved our stay in this cozy cabin! We enjoyed stargazing at night and relaxing on the deck in the morning. It's a great place for a peaceful desert getaway and close enough to JT to go and explore during the day. Would love to stay again!

Peaceful cabin
Hidden Sands
The place is so secluded and peaceful!! The bed is comfortable and the place is clean, great kitchen for cooking! We did get stuck in the sand following the hand drawn directions from Jessica - avoid learco way! Especially the corner of Wilson and learco! Was expensive to get towed but thanks to the housekeeper Tammy it was a smooth process and not as expensive as it would’ve been without her! Would go back, maybe with a sturdier car (ours was a rental)! But we didn’t let that taint our time, the highlights were the Noah purifoy museum and the national park! Amazing place ❤️

Nice place and very clean and quiet. Only think I would say the stove don't work and the room portable heater but the main heater and a/c do work. I would definitely would go again with no problem.

Nice place in Joshua Tree. Would stay again. It’s remote and private. A good distance away so just make sure you have everything you need but not too bad if you don’t. Place was comfortable to just sit and enjoy the nighttime views. Surprisingly the bed was super comfortable along with the comforter and sheets. I have nothing negative only positive to say.
