About the area

Palm Desert

Located in Palm Desert, this condo is next to a golf course. While the natural beauty of Palm Canyon and Indian Canyon can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can check out Empire Polo Club. Check out an event or a game at Agua Caliente Casino, and consider making time for Living Desert Zoo and Gardens, a top attraction not to be missed. Swimming offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling, hiking, and rock climbing nearby.

Short Palm Desert Stay
House was nicely appointed and satisfactory for our stay. We would suggest improved lighting in the guest bathroom tub/shower and a new shower knob in the master bath. Very responsive host.

Nice Place
The amenities described were completely accurate , this would be a particularly good property for families …Carrie has everything for kids and dogs and adults too ….it is pretty Spartan in its appointments , but that is its allure …It would be pretty difficult to break things if you were traveling with a family ….Full golf and fitness center are major pluses too
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022
