Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Previous Guests: “An absolute gem of a home located minutes away from the front gates a Joshua tree. It is rare to find an air bnb where you immediately feel “at home” upon walking inside. The design of this home has so much character and charm with an obvious attention to detail. The hosts are very accommodating and wanted us to have the best experience possible. We are fairly local and are already planning our trip back.” - Cris “This home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described. Amazing views off the front porch of the surrounding mountains. The location was ideal—super close to the west gate of Joshua Tree park and also close to restaurants and shops in town, but still quiet and peaceful. The host was incredibly responsive and friendly, and provided excellent local recommendations. The beds were super comfortable, Wifi was great speed for a desert home, a fully stocked kitchen, and enclosed outdoor space felt very private and serene. It had two of the biggest cacti I’ve ever seen up close! We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and hassle-free experience!” - Nick “This place was fantastic. I’ve been to Joshua tree over 10 times and this place was the perfect mix of value, proximity to the park, being secluded enough and amenities at the house.

Neighborhood

Drive a couple of hours east of Los Angeles, and you’re in a different world. Nowhere is that more apparent than Joshua Tree with its many artist residences, rugged rock formations, and stark desert landscapes. Named after the twisted, bristled Joshua Tree, a stay in this little Mojave desert community is synonymous with art exhibitions, beautiful night skies, hikes, delicious food, and plenty of hours lounging about in aesthetically pleasing surroundings. The Ranch at Quail's End is located about 5 minutes from downtown Joshua Tree and another 5 minutes from the West entrance of the national park. Surrounded by a rocky, mountainous landscape that we like to call "luxury alien planet". Peaceful, beautiful and convenient.

We absolutely loved our stay! The location was perfect, the accommodation was beautiful, the pool was a real highlight, and the view was simply breathtaking.

Thank you for an amazing stay! David was very communicative, detailed, and responsive through the whole process. The house was clean and well decorated. We felt like we walked into a welcoming home. Everything was well stocked, particularly the kitchen which was much appreciated! We loved hanging out on the porch which had great views of the desert and was great for stargazing. Check in and check out process was straightforward and easy. We look forward to staying here again!

We had such an amazing stay! The home was absolutely beautiful — clean, cozy, and perfectly designed for a peaceful desert getaway. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive, making everything so easy from check-in to check-out. I wish we could’ve stayed longer. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting Joshua Tree! 🌵💫

If I could rate this stay higher than 5 stars I would. David was very responsive and provided clear check in instructions. The home was beautiful and the pictures don’t do it justice. It is so peaceful and tranquil. The hot tub and fire pit were perfect! We will definitely be staying here again the next time we visit.

Quails End Ranch is a true desert gem. The home is spotless, cozy, well stocked; it’s the setting that makes it unforgettable. Evenings in the hot tub under the Milky Way were breathtaking, with skies so clear it felt like we could see forever. During the day, we were surrounded by desert beauty/wildlife. Quail families scurrying through the yard, jackrabbits darting by, roadrunners running by (BEEP BEEP) & doves calling in the quiet. At night, the sound of coyotes howling nearby reminded us just how close to nature we really were. The towering saguaro cactuses create a stunning backdrop for sunrises/sunsets & make the property feel magical in every direction. The ranch is peaceful, private; the perfect place to relax, stargaze, & recharge. Every thoughtful touch inside/out made our stay effortless & comfortable. Our dog loved exploring the gated space, we loved the peace/views & the natural wonder all around us. This is a place we will remember for a long time & can’t wait to return.

David’s place was such a great stay, he was very kind in letting us check in early. The home was everything we needed and more. The pictures don’t do it justice. It was very clean and had just about everything we needed. It was the perfect place for a little getaway. We will be coming back.

David’s place in Joshua Tree is an absolute desert gem—surrounded by breathtaking scenery that glows with golden hues at sunset. We set our reservation date around a meteor shower and spent most of our time outside lounging on the two patios or in the hot tub as well as the cowboy pool star gazing for hours. It was perfect. The home is immaculately clean, with every detail thoughtfully maintained to perfection. I particularly loved the fact that there are healthy plants in literally every room. Just minutes away, you'll find great restaurants and convenient shopping, making it an ideal location for both adventure and comfort. Despite its proximity to everything, the atmosphere is wonderfully peaceful and calm, offering the perfect escape from our busy daily life. I couldn’t imagine a more beautiful, relaxing retreat—five stars all the way! We didn't want to leave and will be back for sure!

Location

The street leading to our driveway, like most in the area is dirt, but are are only a few hundred meters off the main paved road and our dirt road is well kept and minimally bumpy, unlike many neighborhood roads in the area. You'll be fully comfortable driving any type of vehicle, 4-wheel drive not necessary. Plenty of parking at the home - 2 covered spots and plenty more space in the wide open driveway.
