About this property

We are a NEW PROPERTY to VRBO - the 1st three rentals receive a 20% discount!

Looking for a winter getaway? Ready to enjoy a long weekend in Palm Desert? Participating in a tennis or golf tournament, or enjoying as a spectator? Attending one of the April music festivals? Coming to Eisenhower Medical Center for work or treatment? On a work assignment to the general area? Traveling nurse? Remodeling your house and needing a temporary place to stay? A family reunion or fun time with friends where you need multiple units - or overflow units? Or maybe you just love being in the desert - and at beautiful Shadow Mountain in particular? Whatever the reason, welcome to our condo ... your perfect desert retreat!

An oasis located in the historic Shadow Mountain Resort in south Palm Desert, our freshly painted and recently updated and refurbished ground floor, south-facing corner creekside king studio condo offers a sought-after location ideal for those seeking a relaxing and comfortable stay in the desert. Simply stated, our Shadow Mountain Condo in Palm Desert is the Perfect Place to Call “Home” during your stay in the desert!

• Spacious, Light-Filled Living Area: The condo is bathed in natural light throughout the day, thanks to a large sliding glass door and glass windows that create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Enjoy your morning coffee on your private patio with serene views of the nearby creek and mountains in the distance - offering a peaceful setting for daily walks, relaxation, and seasonal outdoor activities. This tranquil setting is perfect for singles and couples seeking a quiet, comfortable stay in the heart of Palm Desert.

• Resort-Style Amenities: Enjoy access to 3 guest pools and 5 hot tubs (one of which is steps from your front door), perfect for both starting your day and unwinding after a day of exploring, playing or working. Take a tennis or pickleball lesson. Enjoy watching lessons and tennis matches on Centre Court, all within the secure, gated community.

• Outdoor Activities: The condo’s location makes it easy to maintain an active lifestyle. Golf enthusiasts will love being steps away from the public Shadow Mountain Golf Course, as well as having easy access to numerous nearby world-class golf courses and driving ranges. The Resort offers tennis and pickleball lessons, plus a large greenbelt for soccer, volleyball and ping pong. Go for an early morning or evening swim. Relieve any stresses of your day in the hot tub. Walking the resort and neighborhood is always a treat.

• Proximity to Essential Amenities: Conveniently located near all that Palm Desert has to offer, including top-rated restaurants, concerts, museums, art galleries, casinos, and the famous El Paseo shopping district, known as the "Rodeo Drive of the Coachella Valley." Work out at one of the local fitness clubs, have a massage at a local spa. Whether you're staying for work or leisure, everything you need, and more, is within easy (and often walkable) reach.

• Comfortable & Modern Living: The condo features stylish, comfortable furniture and furnishings. The living room's couch and swivel chair are perfect for relaxing while reading a book, visiting with someone, or watching your favorite shows on the large smart TV. Stream your music through the iHome Bluetooth speaker for added comfort and enjoyment. The new AC system makes any day, hot or cold, your perfect temp. The new mattress, whose headboard is from Restoration Hardware and whose linens are inviting, will indeed provide a wonderful night’s sleep. The full kitchen, with its granite countertops and well-appointed features, is a delight in which to cook or bake. Dine inside at your kitchen table with placemats and beautiful dishes; or dine al fresco with fun outdoor dishes on the patio, or steps from your door at the round table next to the hot tub. Enjoy the large, inviting shower and its very high shower head, which any tall person will especially love! Weekly or semi-monthly housekeeping services can be arranged for extended stays. This condo’s tasteful decor and peaceful ambiance make it an inviting retreat for those looking to escape to the desert for any reason, whether for that getaway weekend or an extended stay. We promise - no snow to shovel here!

This family-owned property is meticulously cared for, has been updated, and is ready to welcome you. Book your stay today and experience the relaxation of Palm Desert living!

About the host

Hosted by Timothy Lawler

Host profile image
Our extended family and friends have been coming to Shadow Mountain for years and we are very happy to have been able to recently purchase this condo! Three generations loving the feeling of Shadow Mountain and the many things to do in the desert - the stresses of daily life literally rolling off your shoulders when you arrive! The smells, sounds and sights of the desert are so unique. We would love to have you enjoy Shadow Mountain and Palm Desert as we have - a very “special place”. We think you will agree!

Why they chose this property

We find Shadow Mountain to be a place for complete relaxation. With El Paseo being so close by, we may walk to dinner or shopping. And with the updated Shadow Mountain Golf Club being next door, it is an easy few minute walk to the course for an early round. Shadow Mountain Resort is centrally located to so many things in the Valley - an easy short drive to so many places - you are sure to find yourself with easy access to whatever it is that might interest you.

What makes this property unique

We especially love that this spacious studio is a corner unit, ground floor, creekside, with a full kitchen and great shower - and is close to a hot tub! It is a wonderful condo for a single person or couple looking for a nice, comfortable get-away or temporary abode - a location that can’t be beat. Much better than staying in a hotel! Family owned and managed, we recently purchased the condo, lovingly refurbishing and updating it for ease and comfort of enjoyment. We are sure you will enjoy it as much as we do!
