This rental home and property are truly a "Little Resort for Two"! It has an excellent central valley location. What you see on the website is what you get. It is beautiful. Everything you need for your stay has been thoughtfully provided. The gated community is quiet and very well maintained as is the house and grounds. Lisa and Matt are excellent hosts and always promptly available to provide support when needed. The feisty little hummingbirds on Lisa's beautiful feeders provided a lot of fun entertainment.This was our second four-week stay and we look forward to returning. Jay and Kathleen - Denver, CO.

Relaxing and wonderful

We had a great stay. The house had everything we needed. The kitchen is well appointed. The host was always easy to reach if we had questions. Zero issues came up and everything was as promised. The back yard is stunning and we were greeted with three varieties of beautiful and friendly little birds at breakfast every day. The pool and hot tub were spectacular. Everything was well maintained. The mattress and bedding were comfortable… I know this is a big deal for many people, and we appreciated it, after many long hikes in the area. We also used the tennis and pickle ball courts and they were in great condition. The neighbourhood is lovely, and I could go on and on about the wonderful month we had. It is a gem in the desert and I would love to visit again.

Fabulous!

I just can't say enough good things about this "little resort." My husband and I spent three weeks here and it was perfect. The pool and hot-tube were awesome, well maintained, and very private. The landscaping is lush and well lit up at night. The house furnishings were very nice and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything one could possible need to prepare meals. The location of the house in Rancho Mirage was perfect, right in the center of the Valley, so very easy and convenient to get most everywhere. If the photos look too good to be true, trust me, the place looks just like it. I can't imagine anyone staying here and being disappointed. We have stayed at many places around the country over the years and I can honestly say this is one of two places I would definitely want to rent again. I think the tag-line should be changed from "Little Resort" to "Little Paradise." It is truly and exceptional property. Brad H.

Wonderful Vacation Accommodation

The name says it all. Lisa’s beautiful home really is, “A Little Resort for Two.” Having just stayed there for a month this November I can truly say that the reality is better than the pictures. The unit is spotlessly maintained and the back yard is fantastic. We ended up spending most of the month in the yard because it was such a beautiful and relaxing place to be. We had the best holiday that we have had in a long time. Some specifics: The unit is well outfitted. We cooked a lot while we were there and all the utensils and dishes we needed were provided. The whole unit has a Sonos music system including some portable speakers you can take outside. My wife is bugging me now to replace our mattress because the bed was so comfortable and cozy. Lisa is a fantastic host and extremely prompt to address any concern you might have. There is a really good grocery store, Irish pub and some restaurants about a two minute drive away. If you are visiting Palm Springs you won’t do better than this wonderful accommodation.

Exceeded Expectations!

We admit it. We're fussy. And particular. We want our house rentals to be squeaky clean, private, and safe and secure. We want an outdoor living area to be visually beautiful as well as comfortable. And like most fussbudgets we want quality accessories like sheets and towels. We like a spacious up-dated kitchen with all the accessories.. The owner, Lisa, must be fussy also. She has made this home a charming relaxing place and one that even an overly particular couple like us enjoy. And oh, that pool area is just gorgeous!

Perfect Paradise!

We highly recommend this beautiful, lovely home in a great neighborhood! We had a wonderul time staying at the property for 9 nights. Our stay and accommodations were excellent! The house is well equipped with very comfortable furnishings and great instructions on operation of the various household features. The pool and spa were very clean. The kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked with everything we needed. The communications were excellent and very responsive upon arrival and throughout our entire stay which was very important to us. We cannot wait to come back. The views are beautiful and the house was immaculate. It truly felt like a home away from home. We truly enjoyed all the butterflies and watching the birds in the backyard during breakfast, and taking walks in the morning. Special touches we enjoyed were the interior/exterior sound system, bongos, and lots of umbrellas for shade. We also enjoyed the tips like the great grocery store close by and the Ritz-Carlton hotel. We will not hesitate to come back here. It is perfect for 2 people. I really can’t say enough about how helpful Lisa and Matt were during our stay, and we so appreciated that!!!

Wonderful house with amazing amenities,.

We really needed a little gateway and Lisa’s house was perfect for it! House located in very private and quite a community. The house is extremely clean and very well decorated. We love.to cook, and stay in the house with a fully equipped kitchen was a blast! My husband like to watch sports, and the TV was perfect for it. Outside area is so beautiful, we had our breakfasts and afternoon drinks by the pool, and it was so relaxing! Jacuzzi and pool very clean, warm, and inviting. Bed is very comfortable. Everything in the house is beautiful and very well kept. In our next Palm Springs vacation, we will be staying in Lisa’s house again. Big thanks to Matt and Dodgers for very detailed orientation 😊.

This property is everything the pictures show and then some. The owner refers to it as “The Little Resort” and it is just that! Lisa has really put a lot of thought and love into her home.

We loved it and can’t wait to come back

My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our anniversary and absolutely loved it. The location was great, the house was fantastic, and the owner was very attentive to any questions via text and email. This property was a wonderful getaway and felt like our own private resort. The pool and spa were highlights as we took advantage of the really warm weather, but the whole house is well appointed with everything you need during your stay and the location is perfect. Quick and easy to anywhere in the Palm Springs area, while being peaceful and serene. We can’t wait to come back here to stay again and would highly recommend this property to anyone (unless you want to stay here the same dates we want, then we recommend it to everyone but you). #kiddingnotkidding Thanks to Lisa for making such an awesome place available to us!!

Perfect Wedding Anniversary Getaway

We absolutely loved our stay in this home! The owner went out of her way to make us feel welcome and appreciated, and the anniversary flowers were a lovely touch. Her home was immaculately clean, comfortable, and outfitted with anything we could need--and everything worked! The community is quiet and secure, while being a great location for exploring the area. The backyard is private and landscaped beautifully, the perfect setting for the pool and jacuzzi. We felt like the house was ours for our short stay, and we would not hesitate to stay here again for any reason. You will not be disappointed with your stay!

Property is very comfortable and clean.

What a way to spend a relaxing time! My wife and I had one of the best times in many years. The property is gorgeous, and the home itself is very clean and inviting. You could tell right away that the owner cares about their clients. It had everything you would need for a relaxing time away, including a great set up for music inside and out. The property owner is organized and easy to work with. If we did not understand how to use things or had any questions, we would text her and she would reply almost immediately. I would not hesitate to go back next year and would highly recommend this property to couples that want to unwind.
