Stay for Coachella
This house has everything you need. The kitchen was well equipped with all the things we needed for the weekend. The property was very spacious and well spread out. The back house is perfect for separation of guest. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. The property is closely located to Downtown Palm Springs with many places and amenities near by. Mike was great, he kept in contact with us for any questions or issues we had. My family had a blast.

Palm Springs Winter Break
We had a great stay for 6 nights. It is clean and backyard has lots of room and we swam in the pool and relaxed at the spa. It is a nice and quiet neighborhood, and super close to downtown, restaurants and shops.

Quiet neighborhood and lovely property.
This is a very nice and quiet neighborhood. The pool area is very well kept and a nice relaxing place to enjoy. The property is close attractions such as the down town area and close the dry river bed for walking. Highly recommend the property.

Perfect Honeymoon
This house is perfect for two couples or group of friends. It feels like it's ideally set up for 4 people based on the number of seats in the dining and living areas, but you could fit up to 6 if you're cozy. The location is a very short drive (<5 min) to the main strip as well as restaurants and grocery stores. It was exceptionally quiet with no road noise. Beautiful view of the mountains as well.

Perfect vacation
The property was perfect. Very clean, great for a quiet week. The only outdoor noise was landscaping - it was very peaceful yet very close to all the restaurants and activities. Like other reviewers mentioned, the owner is great and very available. The property is exceptionally well stocked for a vacation rental. It had more than what we needed. Can’t wait to visit this property again.

This is a beautiful house with everything you would need for a great vacation! Walt was great to work with, and we felt so comfortable during our stay. The beds are beyond cozy and the pool and backyard were something from a dream. Pictures do not do this house justice!!

Fantastic week in Palm Springs!
Overall this is a great house. Full amenities as listed. Was worth paying to heat the pool / spa. The kitchen was well equipped. The contact with the house manager / agent was near real time and super helpful/responsive. The neighborhood is fantastic, the proximity to shops and food was also great. The only suggestion was that the air mattress was not great. Consider putting a mattress or day bed in the TV room.

Great Neighborhood and We’ll Stocked
We loved this property and the neighborhood! Great swimming pool with privacy, I’m glad we paid to have it heated this time of year. There was plenty of dishes and kitchen accessories including utensils for the bbq which we didn’t use. We will recommend this property and would love to come back to enjoy the pool and the down time in a relaxing home.

Private and Perfect
Frank’s house was perfect for my husband and I, my daughter and her beau and our two dogs. We ended up spending most of our time outdoors in the beautiful yard, in the pool, spa or one often various sitting areas. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies that Frank generously provided (how often do you stay in a vacation property where there are extras of paper goods, dishwasher pods etc?) Also, prior guests left a number of useful pantry items.
The three citrus trees provided us with amazing grapefruit and oranges for yummy drinks that we had to concoct because the fresh fruit tasted amazing.
The house was comfortable and well appointed. We had a minor plumbing issue and I texted Walt who had a plumber there within 30 minutes. Walt also made sure that we were well situated upon arrival.
The house is a quick walk to the Tahquitz river where we walked both our dogs and ourselves daily.
Overall, a great house in a great location that is beautifully appointed and well maintained.

the property was everything we expected. The back garden and the pools were private, the grapefruit and orange trees beautiful. A perfect stay.
