Yucca Valley, CA, United States
We have plenty of space for cars to park, but there isn't any public transportation near us. It would be best if you brought your own car and used that to get around. In the event that you go out at night to bars or dancing, there are Ubers/Lyft/cabs available, but can't always be relied upon Per our Yucca Valley Short Term Rental Permit, we are only allowed 4 cars at the property at any time and street parking is not allowed. Please keep this in mind when your group is planning to travel.
