During a quick Spring Break visit to the desert, we brought our kids to Joshua Tree. We stayed in the Casa Rosita of the Desert Lily. The price was comparable to two hotel rooms and it was a much, much better way to go for our family. Three kids shared the queen bed in the bedroom and we adults stayed on the hide-a-bed in the family room. At sunset we enjoyed the patio looking out on the desert. When the sun went down, we set up a game of monopoly on the dining table. After the game, we turned off all the lights to go look at the stars. My son and I did our star gazing from the hammock. The location gave us surprisingly quick access to the National Park, considering that it felt so remote and quiet, on an unpaved road. Within 5 minutes drive we were in the park and within about 20 minutes we were climbing on the rocks at Hidden Valley. Great place to stay, especially for a family vacation.
