Lost Horse Casita is an excellent home away from home for exploring Joshua Tree NP. Patrick and Kathy have provided everything needed for a seamless stay in their well appointed home! Communication from them was excellent. We enjoyed the hot tub on chilly night, taking in the gorgeous view of the valley below.
Twenty Nine Palms is located near the North (less busy) entrance to Joshua Tree, providing an excellent jumping off point. The town offers everything you need to stock up or get a bite to eat.
Favorite hikes/activities: 49 Palms Oasis Hike, Arch/Heart hike, Cholla Cactus Garden, Pioneertown, Wine and Rock Shop. Favorite restaurants: Crossroads Cafe (Joshua Tree), Pappy and Harriet’s (Pioneer Town), Kings Highway Cafe (Palm Springs).
All in all great long weekend getaway! Highly recommend!
