So Convenient For Walking

As described. No surprises. Put on some Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, etc. and drift back to the 1950s. Depending on your speed a 5-15 minute flat walk to the center of downtown. Friends spent a couple of nights and plenty of room for 4 adults. Would definitely go back.

Amazing Coachella Weekend

John was such an amazing host. He texted me before our arrival and throughout our trip. His house was very comfortable and safe during our stay for Coachella weekend. He even provided us recommendations for things to do in the area. We will definitely come back to stay in Palm Springs, hopefully with John again.

GREAT LITTLE PLACE IN PALM SPRINGS

We enjoyed our stay. Joh's house was the perfect place to return to after our long desert hikes. It is private and quiet and we particularly enjoyed having a "cold one" after our hikes sitting in the private patio and watching the resident doves flying about. John is a genial host and very accessible if you have any questions or concerns.

Perfect Getaway Spot

From the moment we arrived, we knew we had made the right choice. The location is excellent, and the Mountain View is top notch. Our host, John, made sure we had everything we needed to have a comfortable and relaxing stay. He even went out of his way to provide a blow up mattress so my son would have his own place to sleep. The home is on a quiet street just off Indian Canyon Drive and within a short driving distance of all the great restaurants and shops of downtown Palm Springs. I was very pleased by the deep cleaning that occurs when one guest leaves before the next one arrives. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to friends and family looking for a place in Palm Springs.

2021 Covid Winter in PS

Exactly as described and exactly as shown in the VRBO photos, is what I found upon arrival. My host, John was there when I arrived. He gave me a quick walk through of the house. The home has a seemingly infinite number of lighting choices. Lighting for all the fabulous artwork and separate room lighting...all on dimmers. John was always nearby, asking if all was good and if there was anything I needed or had questions about. I was self- quarantining the first 10 days I was here. Most of that time, outside on the back patio. Again, the space was just as presented. Overall, I had a very comfortable and positive experience here. I would definitely book here again!
