The box
We had a great stay at the box very beautiful place in the desert would’ve been nice to use the pool but at 300 a day not worth it. Pool is pretty small but overall it was a great stay. We enjoyed Pioneer town and some of the other Places.

This is a great spot to get away. Like 15 minutes from the park entrance which makes it convenient if you're heading out for night hikes or to see the stars.

A Modern yet Organic Experience
Modern and simple in the middle of the beautiful desert. Visually an amazing place. Overall, the experience was amazing but would have liked a more comfortable bed and a little better stocked kitchen (wine classes, larger cookie sheet, etc). Would definitely stay there again!

Disappointing, frustrated and left premises within 30 minutes
Several issues- 1. It wasn’t clear from the listing that there were 2 separate houses on the property. 2. Poor communication with the property manager 3. No welcome note, local guide or map of sorts or a welcoming/friendly email.4. Dirt on the floor, though the type of flooring hid it pretty well visually, paint peeling in some spots , family room woven area rug with some serious pulls creatin a safety hazard. 5. You could hear winds screaming and howling very loudly likely due to poor sound proofing. I mean it was loud. 6. The bedding seemed subpar quality. I peeked at the pillow under the case and said to myself’ I can’t be laying my head on this’ 7. As I pulled in, there was some guy who looked like a pool guy to fix something at the other house. This freaked me out a bit. With all of the above, I made a decision to not be there any longer. The whole experience was very disconcerting. Within 30 minutes or so after arrival, I notified the property owner/manager that I have departed and will not be staying.
