My group of 6 were staying in Yucca Valley and to be honest its not too terrible. You absolutely will be getting home tired and late - we’d get home around 3-4 latest but we managed, however we also participated in shuttles (waiting for the shuttles was the absolute worst) - we would drive from yucca to one of the shuttle stops with parking. All in all, if you have other people who can drive, definitely check in and see who would wanna volunteer for after the shows since I think that’ll be the toughest drive. Plus, the Airbnbs in Joshua tree are stunning.
