We had a very nice and relaxing stay here with my family. The place was quiet, clean, and looked just like the pictures. The room was well organized, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Communication with the host was also great — very friendly and quick to respond. During the summer, we enjoyed staying in and playing games during the daytime when it was hot. In the late afternoon, we drove to Joshua Tree around 4:30 PM. It was only about a 20-minute drive, and we had enough time to drive from the West Entrance to the South Entrance and enjoy the scenery before heading back home around 9:30 PM. If you’re looking for a quiet, comfortable, and family-friendly place to stay, we definitely recommend this place!

We loved our stay at Hawk and Mesa. The way it's laid out on the property feels very private, yet you get a full vista as well. Very comfortable home for one couple. Comfortable bed in the main bedroom. We didn't use the second bedroom. Fully stocked kitchen with every tool and appliance you'd need. Very attentive customer service when needed.
