Unlike most RV / camper rentals in the area which are illegal, JT Village Campground is a legally permitted campground with the county of San Bernardino following all environmental and county rules and regulations. There are four other campsites on the 2.5 acre property so you may have some neighbors but sites are few and spaced far apart.
Please note this is an RV trailer, not a house. This is a "glamping" experience that may require you to patiently wait a few minutes for the hot water to kick in, use a lighter to ignite the oven etc. We make everything as user-friendly as possible and are a call or text away if you need assistance!
SHARED CAMPGROUND:
You will be sharing the campground with other happy desert visitors. We are a community of Glampers with Sol & Sotosha. Please be respectful and bring good vibes only!
FIRE PIT:
You may use the fire pit during your stay. We provide firewood for sale on site. Due to county regulations, you may NOT start an outdoor fire if winds exceed 5MPH. Never leave the fire pit unattended!
BBQ:
We provide charcoal for sale on the campground. We have utensils for your use.
FAMILY:
We are family friendly! No infants are allowed. Children 2 years old and above must be included as part of the total guest count. Please note that the house is NOT child-proof (ie no outlet protectors, steps, etc). Please see our House Rules for more information.
NO PETS:
This is strictly enforced and monitored at check-in. We are unfortunately not able to make any exceptions to this rule. We have other RV's that allow pets.
ENCLOSED FENCE:
The campground is fully enclosed, but keep in mind there may still be opening that wildlife can still pass through.
NO OUTDOOR MUSIC:
Sound travels far in the desert. Take a moment to listen to how much you can hear! Guests must refrain from any outdoor music playing from amplifiers or Bluetooth speakers at ANY time of day or other disruptions that may cause a disturbance to the community even outside of quiet hours. You may play music while in the house with the doors closed, but please only play music from your phone or computer at a low volume while outside. Thank you for being a good neighbor!
GOOD NEIGHBOR POLICY:
Please be respectful of the neighbors! We are in a quiet, peaceful area of Joshua Tree. There are strict county ordinances regarding excessive noise and light pollution. Use quiet voices and refrain from any loud outdoor noise or disturbances by 10pm. Failure to respect quiet hours or after an initial warning may result in cancellation of your reservation without refund.
WIFI:
We have the fastest wifi in the area (15mbps), but we do not guarantee these speeds at all hours of the day. We are in a remote area of Joshua Tree so speed depends on the neighborhood bandwidth, weather, and many other factors outside of our control.
PHOTOSHOOTS & VIDEOS:
If you’re interested in doing a photoshoot or shooting a video for commercial use, please let us know what it is for. You must get approval beforehand! If approved, we have an additional fee for licensing and usage.
WILDLIFE:
You’re surely guaranteed to encounter wildlife on your stay including families of Quail, coyotes, rabbits, rare Albino lizards, insects, snakes, and the endangered kangaroo mice.
NO SMOKING:
No smoking or burning candles. This is a non-smoking unit. Any and all smoking should be kept outdoors and at least 15 feet away from any open exterior doors. There will be a $250 charge for anyone not honoring this guideline. PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE CIGARETTE BUTTS in the property. Animals will pick them up and get sick.
Please help keep the campgrounds clean and do not litter!
CLEANING:
Health & safety is our number one priority. Our in-house cleaning team is trained on CDC and WHO protocols. We take extra measures to ensure the unit is sanitized and safe before every arrival. For this reason we aren’t able to offer early check-ins or late check-outs. Thank you for understanding!
VERIFICATION: Bookings are protected by TRUVI. After confirmation, guests must complete identity verification (takes less than a minute) before arrival. Check-in details will be shared after this step. Guests may also need to agree to House Rules or Terms & Conditions.
CHECK-IN FORM: Before check-in instructions, guests must fill out a form via our link to help coordinate our ground team.
LACK OF CELLULAR COVERAGE:
You will notice that cell service is hard to come by in our secluded desert setting. Don't worry—consider it an invitation to unplug and fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty around you. We recommend planning ahead to make the most of this serene escape from the digital world.
NO TV CHANNELS:
Please note that our TV's on RVs do not have TV channels. Only DVD player is connected.
HOT WATER:
Please note that may not be available during winter months due to pipes freezing.
PLEASE READ & AGREE TO HOUSE RULES BEFORE MAKING A BOOKING
Relatively close to Joshua tree, possibility to cook Further away from the park than expected (20 minute drive) The property was very dirty, the lighter for the gas stove was missing and I had to buy a new one. In the microwave was rotten food from the people before which smelled bad and prohibited me from using it. The coffee machine was broken. After I complained I got moved to a different RV for the second night, but that one did not have bowls or cups. Also in the new RV there were no curtains in the sleeping room.
Beautiful surroundings. The trailer has one of the best views in the park. Glorious weather while there. The space is a bit tight and definitely feels like glamping. The shower water was warm and checking in was easy. Add additional time to come to and from downtown Joshua Tree as it is a bit of a drive and there is a gate that takes manual opening and closing. It was a fun experience while had the chance to be there.
The stay was amazing! We had a wonderful night enjoying the open sky and even spotted some shooting stars—so happy to have experienced it. The grill and fire pit were excellent, and the little camper “Ray” has such a charming vibe. The host was very responsive and helpful in resolving any issues.
It was nice and cozy, secluded and had everything we needed. It was a tad bit dusty on top of the window shades, and the table was asking to fall over.
Clean, nice and good location
EXPERIENCIA LAMENTABLE: Llegamos a la propiedad y no había nadie, solo había una cámara y tenias que meter el coche en la plaza de la auto caravana, para colmo y siendo de noche cerrada, te mandan rellenar una serie de contratos y documentos ridículos para cubrirse en salud ellos y para que firmes eximiendo de cualquier responsabilidad a los propietarios. Te mandan hacer foto de pasaporte de noche y foto selfie para dar fe de que eres tú. Todo ello de noche y no leyendo bien las fotos a no haber luz diurna. Todo esto para que te den un código de cuatro cifras abrir un cajetín y así tener la llave para entrar en la caravana. Al entra en ella, la caravana está destrozada, una mesa que se cae, las sábana amarillas y sucias, el fogón con restos de comida, la papelera llena de otras personas anteriores, una auténtica pesadilla la verdad. Por si fuese poco, solo se encendía una luz de la caravana, ni siquiera había luz en el baño, hacía mucho frío y al poner la calefacción se quedó puesta y se puso la caravana en 28 grados y no se podía desconectar… horrible… después de intentar, en contacto con el propietario que nos ayudase alguien o que viniesen a socorrernos, por cierto todo esto sin llamadas, con mensajes por booking… lamentable una vez más… después de casi dos horas con toda esta película de miedo… finalmente desistimos el alojarnos allí con la calefacción a tope y toda la desesperación que teníamos porque el propietario no nos daba solución alguna y nadie jamás se personó allí, ( de todo lo reseñado tenemos fotos y vídeos como pruebas). Al final contratamos otro hotel con booking y avisamos a dicho propietario que era una auténtica vergüenza todo la situación creada y que dejábamos la propiedad. Lo único bueno de todo esto es que nos devolvieron el dinero de la reserva aunque nos fastidiaron esa noche soñada viendo las estrellas.

Secluded and fenced in making it safe from wildlife but still close to town, 30 mins to the national park. Super cozy with a great view of the stars, can’t forget the secret hammock! It could have been a tad bit cleaner, drawers and fridge had crumbs/pieces of food
Super nice spot for a night in the dessert & stargazing! The contact & communication of the host was amazing & friendly! :) Cleanses level was okay. The AC was quite loud, but sleeping with open windows was okay.
