Clean, private mid-century gem

Home is exactly as advertised. Very clean; kitchen and bathrooms stocked with supplies; easy check-in process with security code; binder with all pertinent details about the house, including restaurant recommendations; big back and side yard with soothing waterfall; outdoor fire table was easy to operate. Highly recommend this house.

Great place for a family stay with a pet

This property is wonderfully furnished with nice appliances and a lovely patio area. The large back yard has a fountain in the corner too. I will definitely for renting this again for family when they come to town.

Perfect for our likes and needs.

The house and location are great. The proximity to the Santa Rosa mountains, the walking /hiking trails, the views, and the nearby oases, are outstanding. The grassy back yard, is private and relaxing, for us and our dog. The house is equipped with most everything we could need. It’s also a short drive to restaurants and services. All of the above are reasons we have made repeat visits, for weeks at a time.

Beautiful Home

Due to our travel lifestyle, I stayed at over 20 properties last year, and this was the cleanest, most well-stocked property I have ever been to, and the beds were comfortable! If you like being outdoors is close to hiking trails and downtown La Quinta is just a few minutes away.

Beautiful, great location

This home was even more beautiful than depicted in the photos and description. I would not change a thing about it. Beautifully appointed, with every detail considered for guests, my friend and I and my dog enjoyed a fun, relaxing weekend here. Catherine and Tim were exceptionally responsive to our (only one or two) questions. The home is thoughtfully furnished, and impeccably landscaped, we enjoyed sunrises, sunsets, and hikes on the local trails in the canyon just a very short walk from the house. It is a short drive to La Quinta Village where we enjoyed some delicious meals and shopping. I hope to stay here again net year, we loved it.

Amazing hosts

This is our second time staying at this house. The owners are so generous and classy with everything. They welcome you with a fresh baked goods ( changes every time) so beautiful and comfy house, one minute walk to hiking trails and 2 minute drive to town. All the places we have stayed in the past, they had a long list of to do list before checking out, but this place did not want us to do anything ❤️❤️❤️

Oasis in the Desert

Very clean. They have everything and I mean everything you need here. We overpacked thinking I would need basic amenities. This place has all that covered. The house is super clean and welcoming, the yard is spectacular. I had breakfast on “the rock” each morning with my lizard buddies. You are surrounded by beautiful mountains. For us flatlanders of Ohio it truly made my first trip to the desert one to remember. Thank you so much for your hospitality!!! Angela and Randy Long

Wonderful house, yard and location!

We stayed here during the tennis match and therefore spent little time at the house. But when we were there, the house, property and location met every need. Extremely clean, attractive, pleasant and with all needed amenities. The house is remodeled to a 50s style with all modern conveniences--very comfortable and well equipped to deal with heat. As others have pointed out, the yard is large, attractive and really pleasant. We sat outside for breakfast most mornings. Hosts were excellent communicators. Best of all, the house is just 1.5 blocks from an extensive park system with hiking trails of all lengths. Really enjoyed those early morning walks! All in all, a great place to stay!

Beautifully appointed mid-modern house with a great yard, all new appliances, beautiful yard, and super quiet right next to hiking trails. And hosts are super-responsive and thoughtful. A great place for a quiet stay, which is what I wanted, so if that is what you are looking for I highly recommend.

Clean and quiet, nicely equipped

Very clean, beautiful backyard with comfortable furniture, super quiet. Owner is responsive and generous, lots of coffee capsules, paper goods, streaming TV etc. Extra clean sheets and towels. One thing to know is that the bathroom for the second bedroom is not adjacent— you have to walk through the kitchen, dining room, down three steps and across the living room to get there, quite a hike in the middle of the night.

Hidden gem with incredible back yard

This property looks just like the photos. Charming decor through out and very well maintained. We felt cozy and at home. Unfortunately, we were there for dog shows so we didn’t spend that much time relaxing and hanging out. The dogs absolutely love the yard and were more relaxed than being at a hotel.
