Good place for a getaway from the city life and lights. Beautiful views to see the sun come up and down and to stargaze including the Jacuzzi, overall a good place to book when in need of a break.

Lovely isolated experience in peace

We had a wonderful experience at the property. Everything was really well situated. Our doggy loved to roam the premises and the views of the stars and the Sun were spectacular. A gem!

5 Star View

We could sit on this porch and stare at this view forever! We did use the hot tub but honestly just sitting on the porch in the swinging chairs was our favorite. As much as this property earned every bit of the 5 Star rating for us, it is not dog friendly. We love cactus but our dog, not so much and pieces of it are everywhere including the dreaded goat head stickers. We would absolutely come back but without the dog. We found the park and town convenient enough for everything we needed.

Beautiful mountain retreat

Gorgeous views, comfortable, quiet and private. Exactly the perfect retreat that I needed while dealing with a family emergency in the area. Last minute booking went seamlessly; couldn't make the keypad entry work, but taken care of immediately by property management.

Peaceful place in Joshua tree

Me and my partner enjoyed our stay at the property. It was secluded and peaceful while being close to Joshua tree national park. The cleanness was a little below our expectations but it is understandable since the house is in rural area and it’s easy to get some dust. Overall we enjoyed our stay over there.

You cannot beat the views!

The views are amazing as the house is at the end of a trail perched on a hill surrounded by Joshua trees. It is remote enough to feel like you are alone, yet close to everything. The house is very cute, welcoming with many places to hang out. We will definitely come back!

Beautiful property and views! But...

We'll start with the positives: The house itself and surrounding property were beautiful and as advertised, the space in the house worked perfectly for work/vacation. The road in is certainly off the beaten path, but I knew that beforehand and the views and seclusion were well worth it!The negative: More often than not, there was a foul, stagnant water smell coming from the bathroom. That being said, if that issue was remedied, this house is absolutely perfect for my work and family needs in the future and I would no doubt stay again next year!

The best weekend in an incredible place.

If you are looking for a quiet and cozy place to relax - this house is exactly what you need. This place fascinates with stunning landscapes, incredible starry sky, silence and fresh air. The house is very cozy and equipped with everything you need. On the territory of the house there is a hot tub and a cowboy pool. We didn't use the pool, but the hot tub under stars is something incredible. There is also a cozy place with a firepit near the house. There is a beautiful view of the sunset and the starry night sky. You will definitely not regret if you decide to spend your vacation in this wonderful place.

Relaxing Spot

We went up for a short vacation before having to go back to work after the holidays. We had a little trouble getting into the house with the codes and all but everyone was quick to pick up our calls and worked to figure out our issues. The views are beautiful, especially at night. It's quick, remote and just what we wanted. Be sure to read their instructions on how to get there. Your GPS will probably mess up the first time.

Great house, okay customer service

I mean this property is gorgeous just insanely beautiful. The propane tank was full so we could sit by the fire every morning drinking our coffee watching the morning birds move around. Make sure to read the instructions to get to the house via the trip manager and not the email. Make sure to arrive when it’s light out can be difficult to find.

You have to see sunsets from Desert Noir!

Desert Noir is a dream! The house itself is cute and clean and very comfortable. Everything listed in the description was accurate. We truly felt like we were at home here and enjoyed our stay. The best part of our experience was the view! No words or pictures could ever describe the beauty of the area surrounding the house. Sunsets were magical! The house is far enough off the beaten path to enjoy the solitude of nature, yet close enough that getting to town and Joshua Tree National Park were easy. The check in / check out processes were simple and straight forward. I’d highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a cozy desert retreat!

Gorgeous setting, super private, cute house

My husband and I were there for a little romantic getaway, and the place was wonderful. House is small but very cozy and (mostly) well appointed. Bed was quite firm, but it didn’t bother us too much. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the peace & quiet, and the stunning views. Our favorite part was the hot tub; used it in the morning to get our day started, and in the evening for some incredible stargazing. It is a huge tub, but the cover is heavy & hard to remove completely, so we only used half. Wish there had been a bench there and/or some hooks to put our robes & towels (easy thing to provide). Speaking of towels… bring your own if you want a decent sized one for the spa (or shower). Also, no kitchen towels to dry the dishes (no dishwasher).All minor things though. The most challenging/frustrating part of our stay was dealing with Vacasa. Lots of automated messages, but contradicting information about check in. There was another issue we needed to communicate with them about and it was very frustrating. Over all poor communication. We will try to avoid properties managed by Vacasa in the future; much easier & nicer to deal with a homeowner or single manager directly.

A funky, cool desert oasis

This property is right out of a movie set. It's in a beautiful and remote location in Yucca Valley. The house and setting are lovely, tucked away in the desert. It was somewhat difficult to access and our GPS and directions didn't match so we were lost on back roads in the desert but eventually found our way with the help of Turnkey Properties customer service. It was definitely worth finding though! A beautiful home with many places to enjoy the views on the patio and deck. The property has a cowboy pool, a hot tub and a gas fire table, all of which we enjoyed. More explicit directions are needed on the property listing however on how to drain the cowboy pool and turn off the hot tub motor when finished. I tried to do both and couldn't and customer service was unable to help when I contacted them. We left before dawn the next morning, so I hope Turnkey Properties was able to handle the check out instructions.

Serene and beautiful

We stayed with our dog for 5 nights. The stars were beautiful and the valley had far clear views. Secluded is correct, it was a very private location. The directions were clear to get to, and we arrived at midnight. The code we were given didn’t work but we quickly were able to contact the host and get another. The house was well equipped, there are many places to hang out, outside. The hanging swings, the lawn chairs by the fireplace, the patio, and the trailer with deck was a nice place to go in the afternoon. We didn’t use the cowboy pool because we should have swept out the red dust before we started and decided to stop filling it. The hot tub worked well. The only thing to be cautious of are the many cholla cactus around, the spines stick to your shoes then can track in the house. We got them stuck in our feet before realizing where they came from. Our dog got them in her paw and then her tongue when she tried to remove them. Be careful! The laundry room had a funny odd smell but you only spend a few minutes in there anyway. Kitchen could use more dishrags, mixing bowls, but I cook more than most people. Bed was comfortable, nice long table, comfortable couch. Limited storage for clothes and places to put stuff. Overall a beautiful property and we have lots of great memories. I would go back.

A Picturesque Oasis with Room for Improvement

Our stay at Desert Noir was a memorable experience filled with breathtaking beauty and a sense of remote tranquility. Nestled in a picturesque location, the property offers stunning views that make waking up each morning feel like a dream. The house itself exudes a professionally decorated charm, with thoughtful touches that add to its allure. The seclusion of this place is a true gem; you'll feel like you're in your own private paradise. The landscape and surroundings add to the feeling of being somewhere truly special. However, while the property has its high points, it's clear that it's in need of some maintenance. Many of the potted plants were dead, some decorations and outdoor lights were broken, and some amenities required attention. The pool had a leak and was completely drained after a day at the park, the pool filter was out of order. The outdoor shower was also non-functional. We were informed that the hot tub had a leak but after refilling it, it seemed to hold up. One aspect that raised concerns was the outdoor camper, which had "danger" and "keep out" signs on it. Check-In was unclear, the emails say meet face to face, but after four calls to figure out where to go I found out they just call you at check-in time with the lock code In summary, Desert Noir has the potential to be a truly stunning property with a little TLC. While there were some misses during our stay, they were not show stoppers, and we would definitely consider returning for another visit

Beautiful remote getaway

We had a great time in this place. Incredible views, everything you need can be found in the house, beautiful property to stay in. Very close to the village and national park. Wildlife is visible from the bedroom window. The dirt road to the house is pretty long, so make sure you have an appropriate car.

The best

The location is the best- it’s surrounded by Joshua Trees, even more than you’d see in the park. The rental itself is very cute and comfortable. We enjoyed star gazing from the hot tub every night.

Joshua Tree Black House

The views are spectacular and location private. The house was clean and had quality clean linens. Having an outdoor fire pit was perfect for star gazing. We enjoyed walking the road every morning with our dog and our Tesla Model Y made it easily uo the 1+ mile sandy road.
