Gorgeous mountain views surround Casa Santa Rosa, our home in La Quinta Cove. Located near the top of the 'Cove' and only one block from the hiking trails around the perimeter, Casa Santa Rosa is the perfect getaway for those who seek the sunshine, peace and tranquility of the southern California desert. The only sounds you will hear during the day are birds chirping and doves cooing. Hummingbirds are quite numerous and are attracted to some of the beautiful flowers in our desert landscaped yard. Relax near our private pool and read a good book or go hiking or biking on the numerous nearby trails. Nights in the desert are magical with a beautiful, clear view of the Milky Way Galaxy unhindered by city lights.
Our 1900 sq/ft home is only minutes away from over 100 world-class golf courses including Silver Rock Resort which recently hosted the Bob Hope Classic in 2008. Old Town La Quinta with its numerous shops and restaurants is also just minutes away. Our mild winters make us a popular destination for tens of thousands of "snowbirds," who travel here from all over the United States, Canada and many other countries to enjoy championship golf, tennis and polo, swimming, hiking, luxurious spa treatments, fine dining and unique shopping. And with an average rainfall of 3 inches, the Coachella Valley is a 'Fun In The Sun' destination for thousands of people from all over the world.
Come and see how the deep blue skies mix with the earthy browns of the surrounding Santa Rosa Mountains and the vibrant greens of palm trees and desert plants!! The natural beauty of this area will captivate you and bring you back time and time again.

Why the Owner Chose La Quinta Cove
We fell in love with La Quinta and the 'Cove' the first time we saw it. The gorgeous Santa Rosa Mountains and the close proximity to over 100 golf courses made it an easy decision for us and we decided to purchase a retirement home here and to rent it out as a vacation home for a few years. It's an easy 2 hour flight from Bellingham, Washington for us to get here and the warm weather during the winter will certainly make it attractive.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Sun, sun and more sun! Golf, golf and more golf! Winters in Vancouver can be wet and dreary and it just made sense for us to have a getaway somewhere where the sun shines almost year round.
The Arnold Palmer Classic Course at SilverRock was named in the “Top 10 New Courses That You Can Play” by Golf Magazine. It was the only golf course in California to make the Top 10 list.
With grace and charm, the storied La Quinta Resort & Club has reigned over the Coachella Valley as the deserts queen of Greater Palm Springs hotels.
There isn’t a single word to describe all that The Living Desert is and does. We must string words together, like beads: zoo and endangered species conservation center – botanical gardens etc.
Old Town La Quinta's picturesque Main Street is lined with restaurants, boutiques, cafes and shops!
