We are located in the high desert above Palm Springs with 15 degree cooler weather at a 4000 ft elevation. The back area stays at around 70 degrees in the winter. Enjoy the full sun in all seasons. Our property is a half acre and is fenced in on both sides for privacy, bordering the Bureau of Land Management National Forest. The back area of the property is private, exclusive and has a well maintained freshwater jacuzzi and high powered rock steam sauna that includes eucalyptus aromatherapy. Located on the property is also a fun little art gallery that features paintings, glass, wood sculpture and jewelry. by local artisans.

Access is just one block off the highway 74 between San Diego and Palm Springs on a paved road. Each guest is given a private tour of the property upon arrival. . We reside on the property and are available 24/7 for whatever our guests may need. We also offer served refreshments. Enjoy views of the 8000 ft Santa Rosa Mountain that we are at the base of.

We are new to this platform however we have had our property listed for about 7 years on other platforms. We have hosted over 1000 guests with almost all 5 star reviews. Our calendar is linked with those platforms to avoid double bookings.

A retreat into a preserved peice of history and nature retrofitted for todays needs

My girlfriend, dog (Sheppard)and I had the misfortune of only being able to stay two nights. We arrived later than planned and the property manager Robert was not only great at commutation but was a warm and friendly person. He gave us a tour upon arrival at 830 pm which included the Casita we stay in, the art gallery of truly original local artists.(All for sale which we will be back to by some of). Also the hot tub and sauna with lights and jets, he also have us a lesson in best methods and uses of sauna and hot tub. Also in the Casita is a short list of reasonable rules and an index of all things to do in the area,local restaurants stores ect. Also a menu available of muffins,truffles,wines available from Robert and his wife any where on the property. There was everything you could think of. There is a bbq and dishes and towels,robes, coffee tea ECT. It's is a small cabin perfect for couples more than that is unlikely to work. My girlfriend dog and I had a blast it was a whole experience and Roberts love of the area and history is evident in his tour and his gallery of artists. after the tour he left us to be and said text if you need a menu item or help. We will be returning to hike the Santa Rosa wilderness trail more with our dog that is less than a mile away across the street. This trip was worth our 9 HOUR DRIVE from Reno and only wish we had more time to spend . We will be returning!!
