Stayed here for a few days with 2 kids while visiting Joshua Tree National Park and Palm Springs. Was a great place with lots of amenities. Very spacious and clean, well equipped kitchen, outdoor space was great with the hot tub, fire place, grill, and more. The game room was a total bonus and was a great spot to unwind after visiting the park. Was a very easy process to get in and out. Would recommend!
