About this property

Spectacular Getaway for Golfers and Sun Lovers - Premiere Property

Gorgeous fully furnished single story large 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home, on the 10th fairway of the Palm Desert Country Club. House has been recently updated with new flooring throughout, furniture, updated fireplace, newer kitchen appliances, cabinets, countertops and backsplash, new linens, towels, furniture, windows and treatments, refrigerator, microwave, gas range, dishwasher, flat screen TV's and beautiful desert landscaping. Private salt water, PebbleTec pool and spa with south exposure guarantees you maximum fun in the sun. The north facing patio off of the living and dining rooms offers expansive golf course views, gas BBQ, ceiling fans, plenty of comfortable outdoor seating and a new propane fire pit for your evening relaxation. Two bicycle's with helmets and two sets of golf clubs are available for guests to use.

Access to Clubhouse, Clubhouse Restaurant and Golf Pro Shop are open to renters. Weekly live music within walking distance at the clubhouse. Close proximity to Indian Wells Tennis Facility, plentiful restaurants and shopping in Palm Desert and La Quinta.

Glory Restored at Palm Desert Country Club. Over the last few years Palm Desert Country Club has spent over 10 Million dollars renovating the golf course and clubhouse. This former host of the Hope for Tomorrow Golf Tournament (past winners include Tom Kite and John Cook) has completed its return to glory. The Golf Course was originally designed by Billy Bell Jr. in 1962 and has been completely redesigned by Cary Bickler (including the 9 hole executive course); Don’t let the 6,400 yards on the scorecard fool you, this course has some strategically placed bunkers and new water hazards that keeps even the longest of hitters honest. The breathtaking views of the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains are as good as any that you will find in the desert. The look and the feel of the 13,000 square foot clubhouse definitely represent the surrounding community of over 1,800 homes on Avenue of the States. Live music is provided at the walking distance clubhouse on Friday & Saturday nights during the season.

Close to the Indian Wells Tennis Garden (less than 2 miles). Convenient for many activities in the Coachella Valley: HITS Thermal Desert Circuit, Bob Hope Chrysler Classic (now known as the Humana Challenge Golf Tournament), Dinah Shore, Indian Wells ATP Tennis Tournament, La Quinta Arts Festival, Coachella Fest, Stagecoach, and many, many activities including fine dining, shopping, golf, tennis, hiking, biking, and hot air ballooning, etc. Great shopping at El Paseo, downtown Palm Springs, Westfield Mall, Cabazon & Desert Springs Outlets, Old Town La Quinta. Local attractions like the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, Living Desert, McCallum Theater, Fantasy Springs, Agua Caliente & Spotlight 29 Casinos, Red Jeep Tours. 30 minutes from Palm Springs International Airport.

Close to a lot of great golf courses

We liked the area for golf and it was close to shopping and Costco. The time of year may be the cause but we hardly sat outside or use the pool they were in the shade a lot. But the hot tub was nice after a long day on the course. There was a dog next door that liked to bark when golfers came through or we were outside and he could hear us. My husband enjoyed the Direct TV to watch the World Jr hockey tournament. Paul the host was right on it when we found out the dryer wasn't heating up. Thanks for a great stay.

Summer vacation

After three years of not being able to travel due to Covid my wife and I were really looking forward to a holiday in Palm Springs. We were not disappointed and our choice of house rental couldn’t have been better. There is everything you need at Paul’s place and I mean everything. Check in is so easy and stress free. We felt so relaxed for the whole month we rented. There’s also a nice welcome gift awaiting you when you arrive.

A wonderful home away from home!

We rented this beautiful home for a month and could not have been happier. The house itself has a spacious layout, the furnishings are new and comfortable, and the decor is lovely. The kitchen is updated and extremely well stocked with everything we needed. The location was convenient--close to El Paseo, College of the Desert, and the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. Extras abound--the wonderful pool and spa, billards, bicycles, books and games, a stationary bike for exercise, and even bocce ball out on the golf course after the golfers have vacated. Add to that the extremely nice and responsive owners, and you have the perfect home away from home!

SECOND VISIT JUST AS WONDERFUL AS THE FIRST

We thoroughly enjoyed our second time staying at Paul's house for a month. It was just as wonderful as the first. The property is a peaceful oasis in a central location, just minutes from whatever you need or want. Paul takes great care of the property and keeps it well stocked with whatever guests might need. With beautiful poolside, mountain and golf course views, plus comfortable beds, there is little reason to venture abroad. Looking forward to a third stay.

Heuvel's Haven

This was our 3rd stay at the property and as always the experience was fantastic. The home is close to all amenities, it's comfortable, homey and has everything you need to enjoy your time off. The owner is a pleasure to deal with and cares about the small details that make the difference between just average vs fantastic.

Amazing pool great location

We had a great stay. Even though it was Uber hot in Palm Dessert, having a pool made all the difference. The rooms were comfortable and bathrooms were well stocked with toiletries. My kids didn't want to leave at the end and that says alot. Highly recommended!

Fabulous Palm Desert Stay

We stayed at this lovely home in Palm Desert for a month and it was fantastic. Some of the highlights included the heated pool and spa along with the wonderful patio and fire pit. The views of the mountains and golf course are truly breathtaking and if you like spending time relaxing outdoors but with a nice cup of coffee or glass of wine only a few steps away, this place is for you. The beds were very comfortable and the house had everything we needed. Never once did I say, “I need this”. The owner, Paul, has thought of everything from pool floats to bikes complete with air pump. And dealing with Paul was great. We had some unplanned changes in travel plans and he was so very accommodating. This was truly one of the nicest VRBO stays we have had.

The home has everything you need

The home has everything you needWe are golfers and we enjoyed the golf course being in the backyard and it’s very close to the higher and expensive courses that we played a couple times also. The hot tub and pool were very enjoyable and the neighborhood is very quiet. The beds are very comfortable and they furnishA lot of the necessities like shampoo soap towels and other hygiene products so you do not have to go out and purchase any. The television system and fire place were very enjoyable also. Great for a family of four or six people

Beautiful Home!

I would definitely recommend this home and would stay there again. It was very clean and comfortable. All rooms, bathrooms and kitchen are updated. All amenities were available. The owner was available for any issue that came up (super minor shower issue that was resolved in less than 10 minutes). The pool is beautiful and very private. The view of the golf course was so beautiful. Definitely a 5 star!!

Amazing house and amenities

Paul's house was an amazing getaway with all the amenities you could want and more. Generally I find vacation homes will have cups/plates/etc, but not some of the essential necessities like butter/oil/etc. He had everything! Ziplocks, foil, etc. This was a great plus. Also the bathrooms were extremely well stocked with nice shampoos and soaps. His outside space was absolutely amazing! My friends and I would definitely come back and stay here again if we were in the area. Also - Paul is super communicative and wants to make sure you have a great time. Unfortunately with both working and doing an MBA, I was rather sparse on communication but he was always there to answer within hours.

Amazing home!

Where do I begin? This house is amazing, the owners have thought of everything in stocking their home! This was our 3rd winter in Palm Desert, and the best rental we have had by far! From pool toys to makeup mirrors for us ladies! Pool towels, speaker outside to listen to music, comfy patio furniture to sit and watch the golfers! The beds were also very comfy, which isn’t usually true with rentals. We arrived to this very clean home, and what do we find, a gift! We had no issues during our 2 months, except a little blip with the Direct Tv, which Paul had fixed immediately! The owners really take care of the house! Our 2 months was fantastic, and so excited to be returning next year! Within arriving this year, we knew the first week we wanted to return next year and contacted Paul immediately! If you are travelling to the area, this would be a great home for your vacation. It has absolutely everything you need!

Wow Wow Wow!! Amazing!!!

I don't know where to start describing how beautiful this house is! We stayed here for a week over thanksgiving with our family and it was so lovely. The home is in a great area with easy access to grocery stores and restaurants. The best feature was the salt water pool and hot tub in the front, and the golf course view from the back patio. This allowed us to relax in separate areas, perfect for families and groups. The morning and afternoon sun is great for the pool area! Also, the hosts have thought of literally everything!! I have rented houses where there is only one roll of toilet paper..not the case here. Directions for everything are very clear and the house is well stocked!! For instance, I almost purchased inflatables for the pool then we arrived and they had lovely ones! Along with noodles and an air compressor. Just very thoughtful details. Next, the beds, pillows and bedding were very comfortable. This is so important when you are on vacation and helped us get a good night's rest! The salt water pool was great because we never felt sticky or smelled chemicals while relaxing in the pool - it made all the difference. The house is just overall lovely, clean and with high-end finishes. We will definitely rent it again!

Home sweet home!

This was a beautiful accommodation. Everything was completely stocked from shampoo and conditioner to laundry detergent, board games, and kitchen wares. A real home away from home. The owner touched base with us part way through our stay to check in and see if we had everything we needed. Note: the patio off the living room provided us with comfortable seating for 6 in shad ALL day! We lived in this space when we were at the house. It was entertaining to watch the golfers play. (We were facing the 10th hole on the Palm Desert Country Club course.) The gas fireplace added a nice touch when the night cooled down. The pool which has sun most of the day (we used the umbrella provided to give a little shade) was a great place for sunbathing and swimming. We also enjoyed the hot tub at night by the pool. The pool area was very private (not like some others with pools facing the golf course fairway.). Note: the bedrooms are carpeted with tile in the rest of the house. Thanks again Paul!
