You are probably familiar with the guard-gated private golf club community that is The Citrus Country Club. The Silver Rock Resort, home to the Bob Hope Classic, is directly across the street.
Our home is south facing (this is the most sought-after orientation) with a wonderful view of El Toro Mountain.
The pictures and the list of amenities pretty well tell the story. The home has everything you need for comfortable living.
Our home is available for 30 day minimum rentals year round.
This home is on the 2nd fairway of the Citrus course. Great for entertaining. We have opened the back yard to the golf course so that it feels like we have a large expanse of land and the whole fairway side of the house is glass. It gives the feel of being outside even when you are actually inside - where you have air conditioning if you need it.
The great room has a surround sound system to make those movies and concerts come to life. There is also a spacious wet bar with refrigerator in the great room.
The library/office is a great place for those things that need to be done while away and the wireless high speed internet connection makes it easy to keep up with the office, friends, family, or learn about things that are going on in the desert that you would want to know about.
It has everything from an HP printer/fax/copier/scanner to rubber bands and staplers. And yes, we keep an extra printer cartridge on hand because we know that the printer always runs out at the most inopportune times. Just bring your computer and make yourself at home.
We had a wonderful time making the casita a special place. We also enjoy sitting around the outside fireplace. It‘s a great place to visit or just relax and read a good book by the fire.
We would be honored to share our home with you.

Map & Owner's Profile
Why the Owner Chose Citrus
This home was purchased new for Kathy's parents upon their retirement in 2000 and has been maintained with the utmost of care.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We love the view of El Toro mountain. It is in the center of our field of vision in both the great room and the master bedroom suite. Our home also faces south which provides the very most sunshine. The surround sound in the great room makes for great music and movies and the fireplaces both inside and out provide atmosphere even though our evenings are relatively balmy. The beautiful casita with the luxurious king bed is a treat for any guest.
Owner's Map of Citrus
Jim and Kathy live in Redlands, just about 100 miles west of La Quinta, and hope to enjoy the desert home upon retirement. For now we are still skiers and, with both of our children - and therefore all of our grandchildren - living in the Sacramento area, we spend most of our discretionary time skiing at Lake Tahoe in the winter. This enables us to share our home with guests from Canada and other cold weather locations who really appreciate seeing our sunshine. For many years Kathy owned and managed her commercial interior design firm and Jim is in the medical field. We enjoy hosting guests and making every effort to be sure they have a wonderful time at the desert.

Really enjoyed the house, it was clean and well supplied especially the office. We were looking to buy a property in the area so the office including the WIFI printer etc. turned out to be extremely helpful. We loved the room in the house (only 2 of us), the kitchen is very well equipped and having a lemon tree in the back side yard was terrific for cooking and fresh oranges in front of the house was unbelievable!! The barbecue was very useful when required. Only used the master bedroom and the bed was very comfortable. We had a couple issues with ants and electrical problem and the owner took immediate action to rectify the problems. The property has this wonderful south exposure with lovely outdoor furnture and we always felt extremely safe in the Citrus development. Used the spa only and it was extremely enjoyable.

From the minute we stepped into this beautiful comfy home with the open spaciousness extending out across the golf course to include Mount Toro in the distance -- my husband & I knew our month's vacation was going to be perfect. I loved the state of the art kitchen appliances & especially the delicious comfortable bed. Our generous host has thought of everything that one could possibly need (too numerous to mention) Eating Grapefruit & lemons straight from the tree -- what a treat ! . The Citrus ia a gated community so there are no safety concerns & shopping restaurants etc all within a short distance. The photo's on the Website do not really do it justice ! Thank you Kathy for allowing us to share your home Ed & Sally Frankovich

BEAUTIFULLY APPOINTED HOME IN THE NICEST GOLF COMMUNITY IN LA QUINTA. THE VIEW OUT OVER THE GOLF COURSE WITH THE MOUNTAINS IN THE BACKGROUND IS UNEQUALED. OUR FAVORITE PLACE IN THE GREATER PALM SPRINGS AREA.
