About this property

Camp 1959 – Authentic 1959 Mid‑Century Retreat with Pool, Two Bonus Casitas & Mountain Views

Experience the epitome of the Palm Springs vacation lifestyle at this iconic 1959 Meiselman home - a true mid‑century modern retreat where lazy poolside days effortlessly turn into magical, starlit evenings.

Located in sunny Palm Springs, CA, this private and stylish Palm Springs vacation rental offers unobstructed mountain views, timeless architectural details, and a resort‑style outdoor oasis designed for relaxation, connection, and unforgettable memories.

Tucked behind frosted glass gates and surrounded by a tall hedge perimeter, the property feels like your own secluded sanctuary. Multiple vantage points throughout the home and yard showcase sweeping views of the San Jacinto Mountains, creating a postcard‑perfect backdrop from sunrise to sunset.

At its heart, this home is a classic Meiselman - featuring 1,500 square feet of indoor living space, clerestory windows, tongue‑and‑groove ceilings, abundant glass facing the pool, and a signature galley‑style kitchen. French doors open into the great room, where the open‑concept layout makes this getaway ideal for entertaining and enjoying the quintessential Palm Springs indoor‑outdoor lifestyle.

The great room offers comfortable seating with a sofa and dual armchairs, a large smart TV, and a cozy gas fireplace - perfect for movie nights or relaxed conversations. All three bedrooms in the main house feature king‑size beds, stylish décor, and furnishings that embody the iconic Palm Springs vibe.

Music lovers will appreciate the media system, complete with a turntable, vinyl collection, and iPod integration to set the perfect mood. When it's time to wind down, the two detached cabins offer additional privacy and comfort - each with its own bed, wall‑mounted air conditioner, and television. One cabin includes a queen‑size bed, while the other features two twin beds. A convenient outdoor half bath near the pool serves these spaces.

The outdoor living area is where this home truly shines. Spend your days floating in the refreshing pool, lounging in the hammock, or soaking in the sunshine on the spacious pool deck. As evening falls, gather around the fire pit, enjoy alfresco meals at the outdoor dining table, or fire up the built‑in gas BBQ grill. With ample seating, outdoor lighting, and panoramic mountain views, this backyard oasis delivers the ultimate Palm Springs pool home experience.

Inside, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need for at‑home dining, while the den offers a large smart TV and an oversized futon - perfect for extra guests or a cozy movie night.

Conveniently located just five minutes from the Palm Springs Airport and Downtown Palm Springs, this home offers easy access to world‑class golf courses, hiking trails, art galleries, restaurants, nightlife, and shopping. Nearby attractions include the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, botanical gardens, desert parks, and the high‑end outlet mall. Joshua Tree National Park, Disneyland, and SeaWorld are all within a comfortable drive, making this home an ideal base for exploring Southern California.

Whether you're seeking a stylish mid‑century escape, a private poolside retreat, or a vibrant Palm Springs getaway, this Meiselman masterpiece delivers an unforgettable desert experience.

A perfect springtime getaway.

Five friends, five rooms, a pool, a hot tub and a beautiful pool deck and garden for relaxing all day and all night. It was a wonderful getaway. The kitchen was well equipped, allowing us to cook almost every meal during our stay. We also enjoyed listening to the vinyls in the house.

Peaceful and private oasis

Had a wonderful long weekend stay. The house was equipped with everything needed to make it home away from home during the time. We enjoyed many hours of the day and evening lounging in the pool and taking in the beautiful view of the mountains.

Nice Place, Management Needs Improvement

It was a really nice house in a good area in Palm Springs. Our family enjoyed our stay, especially how much space there was to lounge and relax. We did not appreciate being disrespected by the property manager when arriving and finding out the pool was not heated when we had payed for it to be. We called the after hours number since we arrived in the evening. We were told "it is common knowledge that when the pool is heated, the spa cannot be heated at the same time." The pool was at 82 degrees when the welcome book said it should be heated to 86 degrees. We told the manager on the phone we did not appreciate being talked that way when we were just trying to figure out why the pool was not heated. We were told that we can have a refund and somebody else would call us the following day and then hung up on. Then conveniently after the phone call, we were locked out of the main house. There is a keypad lock to the main house that somehow the dead bolt locked and we were unable to get back inside for a few hours. We tried to call multiple times with no answer. We were finally able to get a hold of a different person, Xinna, who was actually helpful and eventually was able to get a hold of the owner to provide the code. We were left outside with no keys, clothes, food, anything with a 12 and 4 year old. Not a great way to start our vacation. All we wanted to do was relax in the pool. We are still waiting on our refund from that first day.
