About this property

PERFECT PALM SPRINGS GET-AWAY

Your tranquil Palm Springs Oasis awaits you in highly sought-after South Palm Springs (think, less wind). Located just minutes from downtown and in close proximity to golf, horseback riding, shopping, hiking and great restaurants, our 4-bedroom home features a spacious living room with 60" TV, a family room with 65" TV and DVD player, a fully-equipped kitchen (yes, we love to cook), a beautifully manicured backyard with mountain view, a covered patio with built-in BBQ, an outdoor fire pit and a pool with elevated jacuzzi. Our Master suite has an ensuite bathroom with shower/tub, a TV and plenty of space to relax. The second bedroom has a queen bed with an en suite bathroom (shower); the third bedroom accommodates a queen bed; and the fourth bedroom has two twin beds. There is a third bathroom in the hall (shower). This home is perfect for families, couples or friends looking to relax. This is not a "party" house. Our neighborhood is quiet and we are committed to keeping it that way (no outdoor music, no late night or excessive noise please.) However, if you are looking to chill out, and enjoy some quality down-time, this home will not disappoint. If you are interested in this property, please click on “Contact Host” (not “Request to Book”) and provide the following information: (1) the number and ages of the adults and children in your group, (2) if you will be bringing a dog (and if so, the breed, age and weight), and (3) some information about your group (i.e., how you know each other.) We like to know who is staying in our home :). Please note that the minimum age to rent this property is 30 years old. The maximum number of sleep-over guests at this property is 8. One or two well-behaved, housebroken and recently groomed dogs will be considered for an additional $50 per dog. Thank you!

Wonderful Vacation!!!

My family of 7 stayed here over Thanksgiving and it had everything we needed. The home is clean, comfortable and had all the amenities. Our kids spent most of the time in the pool and the kitchen was well stocked for all our cooking needs. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Family Vacation Home

This property fully met - and in many regards, exceeded - our expectations. The layout was perfect for a family vacation that included three teenagers who value their space. The decor was modern and tasteful, the linens and towels were much nicer than what you usually find in a vacation rental and the kitchen was recently updated with high-end appliances and everything we needed to cook meals, including a full Thanksgiving dinner. The backyard was truly a private oasis with plenty of space to relax. The owners of the property were responsive and provided a lot of helpful information. The location was good - in a nice, quiet neighborhood, close to shopping. All in all, this is the nicest VRBO I have stayed in at this price point. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect base for exploring the area or staying home to relax

For our 28th year of our traditional Girls’ Weekend, 6 of us choose this beautiful home. Quiet neighborhood with super easy access to the Palm Springs airport, and everything you might need. Beautifully landscaped back yard with a pool and jacuzzi, and fire pit. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, utensils, and pots and pan for making meals. Owner and manager both are tremendously responsive to questions and genuinely wanting to ensure we had everything we need. Great hiking suggestions and spot-on restaurant recommendations. Easy drive to Palm Desert, La Quinta, Joshua Tree, etc. we used it as a home base some days, and relaxed and stayed around the house on other days, enjoying the pool. I highly recommend this beautiful home and thank our host for a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable Girls’ Weekend #28.

Better than I expected!

The house was exactly what was described in the description and pictures. It was really nice in person. The pool is where we spent most of our time, there was towels and pool toys ready for us. The house manager Regina was prompt on responding and made sure we were good. Regina was also very nice and welcoming. I would definitely stay again

The owners really went above and beyond for us. Stayed in communication and readily available if we had questions. We’ll absolutely be back next year… every year if they’ll have us!

Fantastic House & Stay

Such a perfect long-weekend getaway, and this couldn't have been a better property and experience. While we enjoyed going out in Palm Springs we spent most of the time at the house and in the pool because it was so hard to leave! Everything was cleaned spotlessly and decorated beautifully.

Home Away From Home

We just completed a one month stay at this wonderful property. We would highly recommend it on every level. The interior of the home is spacious and well appointed and consistent with the images online. The magic of this property is the yard. Unbelievably beautiful, absolutely private, and your own oasis. We also loved the fact that while we have stayed in other properties that may be fancier in their appointments, this one actually felt like home and the yard really is beyond compare. The management and owner of the property were extraordinarily responsive and helpful for the few things we needed to reach out to them for and we could not have asked for better service. Lastly, the property is in a wonderful location. It’s quiet, the wind is low, no air traffic, and close to everything while feeling secluded. We look forward to coming back!

Great Family Vacation!

This house fit our family perfectly! We were here over Christmas and it was my immediate family, 2 adults and 2 kids, plus my in laws and sister in law. The kitchen was fully supplied to cook all day on Christmas. The kids swam in the nice heated pool for hours. The owners were so nice to provide everything we needed from where to go for hikes to laundry soap. If we visit Palm Springs again, we would definitely stay here!

The Perfect Family Retreat

We had 7 of us stay for a long pre-Christmas weekend and it was everything we hoped for. Gorgeous backyard and plenty of space inside. The kids used the heated pool every chance they got. Great accessibility for my father. We were so lucky to find this place since we could bring our dogs, too! Zero complaints. Seriously. House was full of anything we'd possibly need, not to mention the Xmas tree with lights next to the fireplace -- the ambiance was truly what we were looking for and then some. The owner and manager were both incredibly helpful, plus respectful of our time to relax. Above and Beyond. 5 stars.

A lovely, quiet retreat on the South end of sunny Palm Springs

The house is clean, spacious, fully loaded, secluded with a heated pool and hot tub, and we couldn’t have been happier with our friend getaway. Everyone was comfortable, and we were able to cook and enjoy our stay mostly staying at the house. Highly recommend this property!

Patterson family Thanksgiving

The house is beautiful and fit our needs wonderfully. The kitchen was equipped very well - better than others we’ve experienced. This was great, as we used it to cook a full Thanksgiving dinner for 7! The pool and spa were laid out nicely, and we used them every day. We hope to stay again in the future!

Relaxing and peaceful

Perfect place to enjoy a beautiful backyard. We made full use of the pool, hot tub and fire pit. This place is very quiet which was perfect because we didn’t want to listen to any neighbors partying and playing annoying music. We were with our three grown up children and I loved that their 3 bedrooms were located at the other end of the house and we had ours at the other end. It is worth checking the supplies in the kitchen before grocery shopping. Overall, perfect relaxing place to stay.

Wonderful experience!

I rented Margaret's house for a week with 3 friends and we had a great experience! Margaret and Regenia were available if there was any problems, but the wonderful flip book they had about the house answered any questions. The pool and hot tub were wonderful and the house and patio are just as pictured! Would definitely go back!

Relaxing vacation home centrally located

Came here for a 3 night stay with 4 girlfriends. Plenty of room for us all to sleep comfortably and have enough privacy with bathrooms, hanging out space, etc. Regenia made the check in/out process seamless with a "welcome" chilled bottle of wine-and there is plenty of instructions in the house manual that has all your questions answered at the tip of your fingers. Great space for eating, lounging, working. The pool area/backyard is huge is, with plenty of seating both in and out of the sun. We enjoyed sitting at the fire pit each night with the cool breeze and some wine! Very clean, beds comfortable, kitchen well stocked, and lots of fans, AC (it was 95-99 degrees) to keep you cool. Would go back for sure! Thank you Margaret for the comfortable and relaxing space.

About the host

Hosted by Margaret Parker

Host profile image
We love to travel, eat, golf and enjoy life. We hope that these passions are reflected in our Palm Springs home. Palm Springs is magic, and we think you'll find hanging out in our back yard as magical as it gets.

Why they chose this property

When my parents sold our family home, I was devastated and went on a mission to find my own Palm Springs retreat. I looked at a lot of houses, but was consistently disappointed at what I started calling "Big House, Little Yard" syndrome! When I found Casa El Gaucho, I immediately fell in love with the back yard, but boy, did the house need a lot of love. Six months of construction was no picnic, but it was well worth it. We love this home, and think you will too.

What makes this property unique

If you like drinking your coffee outside with lots of birds, a view of the beautiful San Jacinto mountains, and peace and quiet, then you will love Casa El Gaucho. But please no outdoor music, no parties, and no excessive noise, especially at night. Thank you.
