Could not have been lovelier. Remarkable location; very sweet house; well appointed kitchen (a rarity among Airbnb rentals); comfortable beds; beautiful outdoor space. Simply could not have been happier.

Carrie suggested we take screenshots of the directions before we got there in case of signal loss, but G Maps took me right to the door. I was glad I had an SUV since the last mile or so is a bit bumpy and sandy, but we saw a UPS truck, so it's not that bad. The fireplace makes the front room and kitchen a great place to drink coffee on a winter morning and the hiking trail down the street is a fun walk among the boulders, with a great view of the valley at the end. Would stay here again if we make it back. read less

Beautiful place, pictures don't do it justice. The house frames the natural beauty outside, perfectly. We had a great relaxing vacation. Will definitely come back.

Wonderful home in stunning, relaxing, private location. Will definitely plan to go again!

The extra directions were helpful as we did not have cell service but Maps was accurate as well (we just made sure we had directions loaded before we lost service). The road out to the house was quite bumpy but easy if we took our time. The home is gorgeous and peaceful! Beautiful stargazing on the back patio and cozy inside for quiet desert evenings. Carrie was extremely helpful with communication and very prompt with any questions! We hope to be back sooner rather than later! read less

Great place with tons to do. Loved the records and record player, both patios, and jacuzzi, stargazing was exceptional.

Always peaceful and beautiful experience. It’s a well laid out home and comfortable while feeling a part of the desert.

This place is a gem in the desert. You’ll feel very comfortable and pampered in the space, from outdoor amenities to wonderful beds and art. Highly recommend.

The front patio was nice to lounge in if the sun was too much and the back patio had all the amenities like an outdoor dining table, and hammock to stare at the stars on the clear desert nights. We appreciated all the details like robes, towels for the hot tub, and blankets for the chilly nights stargazing on the hammock. There was also a bag of some JT Coffee for breakfast which i loved..
The location was quiet and secluded and it's a quick drive to the Red Dog Saloon and Pappy Harriet's for music and cocktails or Giant Rock Meeting Room for some delicious pizza and beer.

Big beds, 2 bathrooms, comfy living room furniture and a great dining room table. The turntable with a great record selection was my favorite! We listened to records the entire time.
The backyard has everything you need to enjoy the gorgeous views…fire pit, lounge area, hot tub, bbq (we used for our dinners), as well as plenty of space and privacy. No matter what part of the property you are on you have a scenic view.
Carrie has thought of everything you need for an Airbnb stay! From robes and Mexican blankets to coffee tumblers with desert animal names to tell them apart and all the kitchen necessities you need. She is a quick responder to messages too! Great host!

Beautiful natural light filtered throughout a modern and simple design made this feel like a luxury apartment, with all the amenities, placed right in the middle of beautiful desert views for miles. Everywhere you are in this place feels like exactly where you should be with every seating area well thought out and very comfortable for quiet relaxation, reading a book or socializing. The hot tub is just far enough away from the home to feel a little secluded and perfect for nighttime soaks and stargazing. Top it all off with the most amazingly comfortable beds! We even got wildlife visitors nearly every day. Black Lava Lodge is truly something special and Carrie was so great to work with! What an amazing find! read less

The location is so easy to get to town...but still be very private and hidden in Joshua Tree! We can't wait to come back for the 3rd time soon. read less

Carrie was extremely pleasant to deal with and we really enjoyed the solitude, views and amenities on the property. Both nights we stayed in and made dinner and listened to the her records. Beds were super comfortable and we appreciated how the rooms were on separate sides of the dwelling - it made them feel more private. I’d recommend this place for anyone who feels like they want to “get off the grid” but still be conveniently close to civilization and have all the modern creature comforts at hand. Truly an excellent choice for a desert getaway. read less

Hands down one of the best places I have ever stayed.

The location is just gorgeous. The property itself is wonderful and the views on all sides represent everything I love about being out here. Expansive nature and the most soothing silence. The house has the perfect layout and easily accommodated myself, my fiancé, my mom and her husband. There is plenty of privacy when you need it and a great common area to share evening cocktails and meals.

Being able to share this part of the planet with my mom and her husband for the first time was deeply meaningful and Black Lava Lodge was the perfect place to showcase it. They now share my deep love of the desert and I couldn't ask for a better birthday gift! read less

Everything about our stay was perfect and leaving paradise was incredibly difficult. Communication with the host was respectful and easy.

The location offers the perfect secluded desert experience but is close enough to JT NP and the surrounding towns to satisfy any of your needs. Super close to Pappy & Harriet's so we were able to catch a great outdoor concert while we were there.

The amenities/extra touches (outdoor blankets, aromatherapy, stargazing hammock, yoga mats, endless kitchen equipment, outdoor games, etc) were very appreciated and enjoyed. We loved the JT coffee so much that we even went out to buy more and bring it back to share with our family and friends!

Carrie was transparent and responsive when a previous issue with the water/well needed to be fixed during our stay. This led to no negative effects on our vacation and was much appreciated.

We can't wait until we have a chance to make it back to Black Lava Lodge! read less

She was communicative and flexible as the attendee count and dates in our group evolved over time, including the eventual use of the darling bunkhouse.

The location made us feel like we had a true desert experience, while still being close to civilization. The photos and other reviews were spot on. The amenities were thoughtful (special blankets for outside use, spa towels for the jacuzzi, yoga mats) and we appreciated the clear labels and instructions that made our stay a breeze. The only thing we would have loved to have would be umbrellas or other options for shade on the back patio.

We enjoyed and would recommend the following nearby:
-Joshua Tree Bottle Shop (nicely curated selection, knowledgable staff, reasonable prices)
-The DEZ fine food takeaway (elevated sandwiches, pastries, salads, quiches, sausage rolls, lattes, chocolates, etc.)- YUM

We made great memories at the Black Lava Lodge and would recommend it to others. Thank you, Carrie! read less

It is a great relief to arrive at a place and not have to think about anything because the hosts have done it for you. Such a well-maintained space with attention paid to every detail. Cool art, great décor and a fab vinyl album selection. The kitchen has everything one needs and the Joshua Tree Coffee is such a nice touch! The living room fireplace was super cozy on the cooler evenings. Very restful sleep in a super comfy bed. (USB chargers bedside – yay!) Glorious outdoor space can’t be beat. We took full advantage of everything… the lounge area, spa under a moonlit sky, firepit, etc. Appreciated thoughtful details like lanterns, flashlights, outdoor blankets, towels and robes! So lux! Wowzer sunsets, glorious view of the mountains and hiking right out the back door. The sushi from Kimi Grill is the best – don’t let the location inside the Travel Lodge deter you! (We had it twice.) Also, just down the road is the famous Pappy and Harriet’s (get there 30 minutes before opening to get a table early.) We found BLL a perfect base to explore Joshua Tree NP. Carrie was very responsive and gracious, and proactive with all the info we needed when the power went out for a hot second. When searching for a place to stay in the Joshua Tree area, we hesitated a minute wondering if the off-road would be a negative factor, but it absolutely should not be a deterrent and is very tame. The privacy this place affords is worth the small effort to get to it. We can’t imagine a better place to stay in the area and are already eyeing a return next year with family! read less

The photos of the home cannot show how the 360-degree views of the home put you in the middle of a private desert paradise. Your back yard has never-ending views and the perfect view of a desert sunset, and your front yard looks out to boulders and Joshua trees. We were there during a cold week in March but still took advantage of the outdoor spaces. Especially the firepit and hot tub. I can imagine the warm desert nights allow for more opportunities to enjoy the expansive outdoor spaces.

I know we had neighbors while out there, but they are far enough away that you actually feel like you are the only people there for miles. There's great hiking nearby at "Sand to Snow: Black Lava Butte and Flat Top Mesa" - we hiked for 4 miles and did not see another soul the entire time. Joshua Tree National Park is a short drive away and was the perfect distance for a day trip. Also, Pioneertown was a fun visit and we really enjoyed Pappy & Harriet's for their food and drink. We hope to return to see a show there next time!

The home is the perfect getaway size for two couples. There are two nearly identical bedrooms that both have their own bathrooms. Yes, the kitchen is on the smaller side, but it worked just fine for a home rental use. And be prepared for comfy beds! I don't know what kind of mattress and bedding they use, but I want the same for my home.

I can't say enough good things about this property and all the special details that went above and beyond most rentals. Thank you Carrie for allowing us to enjoy your beautiful home for a very special getaway. read less

We’re a group of four friends who have been coming to JTree once a year for a few years now and the Black Lava Lodge is by far the best place we’ve stayed in. The area is amazing and you get just around the house almost the same JTree density and you’d get inside the park.

The house is beautiful, the amenities are great and you really get a feeling that it has been purposefully designed to the smallest details. From having a shaded place to sit outside on both sides of the house so that you can be outside in the morning and in the afternoon. The windows in the living room allowing you to see the sunrise and everything else really just feels very much planned.

I was a bit skeptical to travel in a desert city with our one and half year old girl, but the lodge is perfectly equipped and super comfy. The 8-acres fields have been an amazing playground with many birds, cottontail rabbits, lizards... but also a wonderful relaxing zone where we enjoyed having a drink on the patio, gathering around the fire pit or resting after a hiking day in the bubbles of the new hot tub.
We definitely loved the perfect balance between adventures and peaceful rest! read less

If you - like us - live in crowded major metropolis and feel a need to get away from people for awhile, this place on the outskirts of Pioneertown near Joshua Tree National Park in the Mojave Desert might be exactly what you're looking for. The pictures, although quite accurate, really don't do the place justice. It's very tastefully appointed with many awesome little touches - from bathrobes, to thick spa towels, to an aromatherapy device on the bedside table, to the record player and vinyl collection. We spent a lot of our time there on the porch and patio just enjoying the fresh air, the sunsets and the stars.

Carrie was super warm and communicative! There was a gas snafu we couldn’t figure out and she sent someone to have it sorted right away!

It was more than we expected and we thoroughly enjoyed EVERY SECOND! My personal favorite feature was the chlorine-free hot tub where we could watch and be mesmerized by the incredible night sky. The last night we were there we saw 3 shooting stars. If you're looking for a quiet, gorgeous, modern home to retreat to this is the place. I also aprpeciated all the details - yoga mats, blankets to use when you're haning out by the fire, a really cool record player with the perfect records for a desert weekend vibe, reverse osmosis water filter (I'm a water girl and this was REALLY important to me), and the list goes on. Definitely recommend. Worth every penny. 🙂 read less

From soft spa robes to Mexican blankets to Le Crueset cookware, everything is tastefully thought out. And the Sand to Snow preserve across the street means you can hike the desert without ever leaving. read less

A patch of heaven in the desert. Do the hike about a mile down the road, incredible! beautiful house, serene and loads of thoughtful touches. A+

A place that felt like home, but also felt like an oasis in the wilderness that has been 2020. We cooked all our meals here in the small but complete kitchen, lounged by the indoor fireplace morning and evening, enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit, took several walks, hikes, scrambles up rocks right out the front door. The desert in the Joshua Tree area never fails to inspire and heal; the awe inspiring rock formations, Suess-like plant life and incredible star at night. Highly recommend if you really want get away from it all. read less

Incredible location, and Carrie was SUPER responsive when we needed to communicate. Amazing place, highly recommend!

With the wide valley and Sawtooth Mountains below and the boulder rock cliffs behind,
It's a perfectly situated setting to experience the beauty of this desert area.

Everything is thoughtfully set up for a low impact, healthy chem free, relaxing, fun experience.

I was there during the hotter temp times and really appreciated the solid AC during the day.

The Outdoor shower, the HotTub without Chlorine are the bomb, it just takes a lil care in how you use it...and w/ a new moon, the star gazing was fantastic.

Carrie has been a fantastic host, timely responsive, clear, and available if needed.

She was also flexible when I had to make a quick change of dates. I appreciated how much I felt supported in creating this trip.

Definitely pay attention to all direction instructions. (Hidden by Airbnb) maps or such might lead you astray!

Thanks for such a sweet little respite, a way to see my local fam, and will def be back in the future! read less

Truly gorgeous 360 degree location and peaceful, clean home. Extremely helpful and prompt communications!

Lovely retreat, stylish & cozy. Very well stocked kitchen if you like to cook. Property is private & remote but convenient to Pioneertown and the national park.

After dinner we would sit in the hot tub and watch the Neowise comet cross the sky, or sit on the lounge chairs and write and read. We decided to take a working trip out to Joshua Tree and Carrie was incredibly attentive to us, even going as far as to make sure all the internet was running well and working for us, making our trip not only possible but easy. We loved the grill, and the trip into town made for fun outings or date nights. In the mornings we lounged in the hidden rock hammock and took meditate strolls around the property. The best part about Carrie's home was just the pure privacy you felt, so far away and so removed from others you could only see the faint distant glow of headlights. If you're looking for somewhere quiet, romantic, remote, relaxing (with all the modern amenities), or just want to see the milky way, Carrie's home is the right choice! read less

Unforgettable experience. Hope to visit this amazing place again:)

The best Airbnb experience of my life! Must do.

A must book!! We will be back without hesitation. A wonderful getaway to some peace and quiet. Everything about this property is magical and restorative.

The attention to detail at Black Lava Lodge made it extra special. The views, the style, the outdoor living spaces - the Joshua Tree vibe is everywhere. Thanks Carrie!

Our closest neighbors were the many jackrabbits hopping around the fields, and the odd road runner.

We had an excursion to Pappy and Harriet's but otherwise just lounged around the beautifully designed house. Thanks for a relaxing stay! read less

We used the hot tub and the fire pit. It was great waking up to the song of the birds and the view was amazing!

Carrie's home has everything you can ask for in a short term rental. If you come for rest and relaxation, this home has it as you can literally just decompress and absolutely do nothing. We really enjoyed the spa at night under the stars, and cooking in the clean amenity filled kitchen. If you're looking for more of an adventure there are literally activities that are right at your doorstep, including first class hikes, taking a short drive to Pappy and Harriet's to see a show, or even a reasonable drive into the national park and all it offers. We chose a little of both and still came back from our weekend well rested and rejuvenated. Carrie is a first class host who's communication was above and beyond my expectations. You will not regret renting this house and all it offers it's guests. I can't wait to come back and visit once again. read less
