Wonderful stay

Had a great stay here. Stargazing in the hot tub was a highlight. Property has laundry on site, plenty of coffee/tea options (espresso maker!). Location is pretty private for being in a neighborhood, nice quiet road and close to Joshua Tree town center. Very helpful and responsive hosts—so kind. Thanks!!

Great location

If you're looking for luxury accommodations, this isn't it. But if you want peace and quiet, dark night skies, close access to the park, a comfy bed and a good shower, Coyote Creek is for you! We enjoyed all the explicit instructions posted around. We didn't have to wonder how to work anything! Lots of wildlife. Bird-watchers will love it!

The most wonderful, cozy stay in all of JT

It is evident how much thought, love, and intention Roy & Pam have put into their beautiful home. From all of the wonderful amenities to the eco-conscious property efforts, there is much gratitude to the desert in all of it. We can’t wait for our next stay.

The Great Escape

Coyote Canyon Retreat is a wonderful home so close to Joshua Tree National Park. The home is bright and airy, super comfortable, and had everything we needed. The property is great, with many different cacti, trees, wildlife, and a spacious patio with seating for lots of guests. SO quiet!

Wonderful Stay in Joshua Tree

We had 63 days at this little piece of paradise. The house is situated at the end of a dirt road. We often saw coyote, rabbits, quails, and a variety of other birds. The house had all the comforts we needed with a well stocked kitchen, a comfortable bed, and there were plenty of towels and blankets. We appreciated having trails within a short walk from the house. We did not use the hot tub but we did use the outdoor shower for a morning cold shower (better than coffee to wake up!). The hosts were always responsive and helpful. We would definitely use this accommodation in the future on our return to Joshua Tree.

An unforgettable stay in a beautiful place

Our stay at Coyote Creek has been amazing. Pam and Roy have been brilliant throughout, communicating with us and providing us with details plus being on hand and approachable during our stay. Check in and out was easy. The retreat is a very special place, in it's own peaceful and secluded corner of Joshua Tree. We loved spending time outside with so many breathtaking views to see - seeing the sun rise and set on the patio and star gazing with a meteor shower in the spa were amazing experiences! There was plenty of wildlife watching to be done aswell. The home itself is lovely and has everything we needed, instructions on using appliances were very kindly left by Pam and Roy. We were able to cook meals and wash some clothes. When indoors we loved looking at the record collection and playing a few - soul food for any music lover! Our amazing stay will live long in the memory and we only have good things to say. We will recommend Coyote Creek to our UK friends and are sure that anyone who stays will feel as lucky as we do to have spent time in such a special place. Thank you so much Pam and Roy!

Great stay near the park

We enjoyed our time at the Coyote Creek! The location, so close to the park was perfect and the views from the windows exceptional. We enjoyed the hot tub after a few hikes and the view of the stars from the tub was incredible. We also enjoyed listening to many of the vinyl records from the vast collection. The sleeper sofa was also very comfortable. We loved having the gas grill available and the variety of spices and condiments made cooking much tastier. The large yard looks beautiful but unfortunately it was too cold and snowy to enjoy it. We did see 2 coyotes cross the yard. We loved all the instructions available to make everything work. Roy and Pam are excellent hosts! They are friendly and just want your stay to be the best. They were very helpful and quick to answer our questions. We really enjoyed our stay.

A very magical time in Joshua Tree

Coyote creek is exactly as advertised. Communication with the owners was stellar. We go to Joshua Tree National Park usually about 4-5 times per year. First time staying in Coyote Creek. We loved it! 10 minutes to the park entrance - we spent all day in the park, then home in the late afternoon to relax, cook dinner and listen to records and read. Liked leaving our regular life behind and just enjoy coffee in the morning, back to the park and repeat. Perfect for us. Has everything we needed inside and happy to see the roadrunners around outside. Would love to stay again. Thank you!

Great location and stay in Joshua Tree

My 17 year old daughter and I stayed here recently for a couple nights to tour Joshua Tree National Park and the area. Had a great time. The house was very nice and clean. They even had some extras there including a cooler and outdoor chairs that came in handy during our explorations. Perfect location to see the stars, although we also went into the park after dark one night which was awesome. Location was very convenient to both the park and town for restaurants. I chose this property specifically because of the record player and album collection. May sound strange, but my daughter loves records and we are both music enthusiasts, so it was a cool addition to our trip. Only complaint was the Be Aware Of Rattle Snakes sign on the front porch. My daughter is petrified of snakes, so the validation that there are snakes in the area made it tough to get her to hike or spend much time outdoors. LOL (not really a complaint...I was glad for the information - she was not)

About the host

Hosted by Roy Houston and Pam Hansen

Host profile image
Pam and I grew up in LA and San Diego. We both like to garden at our home in San Diego. We have 70+ varieties of edible plants growing. We've been coming to J-Tree since the 70's - climbing and hiking with family and friends.

Why they chose this property

We looked for years to find a vacation place. We knew instantly this place was special, 2.5 acres, terrific views and room for family and friends.
The only noise you hear is from the wildlife coming thru the property.

What makes this property unique

You'll never feel cramped on the extra large covered porch with amazing mountain views.
Being high on the hills above the town and 3 miles from the Park makes the location extra special.
