Greetings travelers! 

👋

We’re Joe & Kim

 

Devoted small-business owners with passion for family, design, the outdoors and creative expression.

 

Our hosting journey began in 2019 when we bought our first vacation home in the Cascades of Washington State. As avid snowboarders, sharing the Leavenworth Chalet with fellow adventurers has been an absolute joy.

 

But Gloc Haus really started with a different kind of dream—reimagining our detached two-car garage into Belvidere Haus, a tiny home in Seattle. We originally built it with family in mind, hoping to create a multigenerational space where we could one day support our parents if needed. Until then, we rented it long-term, and after five years, transitioned it into a vacation rental, opening the doors to tiny home enthusiasts and travelers. Hosting here since early 2022 has been an amazing experience.

 

That same year, we fell in love with Joshua Tree National Park and launched Hi-Desert Haus. Our expression of a minimalist desert oasis of calm in the form of a charming rambler. There’s something special about the peaceful energy of this home, and we hope you feel the warmth and care we’ve poured into its design.

 

Creating these spaces has kept us busy, but we’re beyond grateful to be doing what we love—focusing on family, designing places where you can truly relax, and making meaningful connections along the way.

 

We appreciate you being here and considering Gloc Haus for your next memorable getaway. Thank you for your support! 💛
