The Riverside – Moroccan Chic Resort Retreat
Moroccan chic meets Southern California charm in this Mid Mod vacation home by famed developer, Paul Trousdale. This very private, one-of-a-kind 2265 sf home sits on over a quarter acre in the popular Tahquitz River Estates neighborhood. It features a gorgeous yard with an oversized pool and a waterfall spa surrounded by chaise lounges, an outdoor living area, a daybed, a built-in fire pit, and a covered outdoor dining area. You'll also find an outdoor shower, a beautiful fountain, lush landscaping, and spectacular mountain views. Beds: K, Q, Q, Q
This unique designer property - which was once home to Emmy award-winning set designer, Ken Johnson - was truly made for luxury living in Palm Springs. Inside you'll find curated artwork, comfortable furnishings, a spacious free-flowing floor plan, and walls of glass that blur the lines between indoor-outdoor living.
OUTDOOR LIVING SPACES As you walk through the uniquely carved wooden entrance, you'll be greeted by a gorgeous vacation paradise. The oversized pool has an integrated spa and is surrounded by lounge chairs, an outdoor living area, a vintage daybed, a built-in fire pit, and a fabulous veranda with alfresco dining. You'll even find an outdoor shower and a beautiful fountain! If you're in the mood to BBQ, you can find a BBQ grill in the outdoor area adjacent to the kitchen. Lush landscaping, towering palm trees, and stunning mountain views add to the magic of this spectacular property. ** The pool will be heated upon request with an additional service fee. Please let us know if you'd like to heat the pool so we can ensure it is heated before your arrival. If you home has a spa or hot tub, heating the spa is included with your rental at no extra cost ** ** Please Note: 1. This fee is not included in the quoted price on some booking platforms. 2. Pool heating may be added in minimum of 3 day blocks per request **
INDOOR LIVING SPACES Fabulous vacation home with the perfect blend of Moroccan chic and Palm Springs charm. Gorgeous and sophisticated but casual and comfortable at the same time. Walls of glass around the property blur the lines between indoor-outdoor living in true Palm Springs style. The free-flowing floor plan is perfect for spending time with your entire group - but there are also quiet spaces tucked away for getting some alone time. The living area - which features a gorgeous fireplace with Moroccan tile - flows into the dining area and well-stocked kitchen. There is also a separate den with a sofa and a desk - perfect for stepping away for remote working and learning. This property has all the appointments you would expect from a luxury home - high-speed internet, upgraded heating/cooling systems and a washer/dryer. The owners have thought of everything!
SLEEPING QUARTERS All bedrooms have been beautifully styled and feature a hotel-quality mattress with ample storage. The Primary Bedroom has a California King bed and an ensuite bath with a double sink. One Guest Room has a Queen bed and easy access to the guest bathroom in the hallway, the other Guest Room has a Queen bed and an ensuite bath. There is also a detached casita where you'll find a Queen bed with an ensuite bath - plus its own kitchenette equipped with a sink, a wine fridge, flat screen tv, and of course, its own coffeemaker. There is even a dining table for 2 guests and direct access to a fabulous private patio with more alfresco dining.
THE LOCATION Driving is completely optional while staying at this property - conveniently located in the popular Tahquitz River Estates neighborhood. You'll be less than a mile from the world-famous Palm Canyon Drive, close to both the South Palm Springs Business District and the bustling Downtown area. Grocery stores, fine dining, casual restaurants, nighttime entertainment, and some great coffee shops are all just a 15-30 minute walk or an easy Uber ride away.

The Riverside is a beautiful house with lovely landscaping and a great location. It is perfect for an extended family visit. Lots of great gathering places, yet privacy when it comes to bedrooms and bathrooms. The place was spotless and well furnished and the host were very responsive. Would definitely stay here again next time we are in Palm Springs.
Superb experience. Property met all expectations for 6 adults. Solid prep, communication and cleanliness. Charming ambience. We’ll be back!

Reviewer Comments:
This property, “Riverside” house in Palm Springs, is a dream. The design and layout, furnishings and amenities, from front gate Moroccan inspired door throughout the grounds and inside the home, we were taken away within a secluded retreat — all without having to board an airplane to Morocco for our adventure. Acme management company is on top of everything and handled any request with top notch professionalism. While residing at the “Riverside” house, it felt like a honeymoon destination - and rivaled the places we’ve stayed across the world. The listing photos posted are accurate, but seeing the property in person truly becomes a magical experience. Impeccable taste in decor and adherence to cleanliness — noticed especially in this pandemic era. Oversized pool, updated modern kitchen, separated quiet bedrooms, leather living room furniture, perfectly appointed wood framed windows with amazing views. We will return for sure as our first choice when visiting the PS area.
