The pictures don’t do the property justice. The rooms were very spacious and cozy. Plenty of space in the pool for a family of 14. My family had an amazing and memorial weekend together.
I hosted a somatic retreat here. The outdoor pool area was wonderful and the main beds were so comfortable. The views are gorgeous with mountains on all sides and lots of amazing nature sounds. The host was attentive to all my questions and resolved minor issues very quickly!
My family and I, enjoyed this property. It"s well maintained and does not lack anything. The host is super attentive and on top of any questions we had. Beautiful house, location and views. The house is spacious, comfortable, clean, accommodating and excellent for a large group.
Property was beautiful and accommodating to our big family. There were enough plates for everyone when it came for all meal and the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The kids loved the swings and hammock too. It was a tranquil experience from us city folks looking to have some quality time with the family.
Our group had a fantastic stay! We were in the area for a wedding and the house was perfect for 5 couples. Check in was a breeze and conditions were even better than the pictures! Host was very communicative and the checkout was not a hassle whatsoever.
okay, after a brief power outage the ac stopped working around 9pm or so. 105 degrees outside temp it was Hot! messaged Christina who by the way was awesome and she sent out the Guy!! after doing everything possible to get the ac running he just couldn't get it working. Did I mention 105 temp outside? The Guy then informed me that he has an electrician on the way, Its almost 11pm and he has an electrician on the way!!! Enough said.
My family and I truly enjoy our stayed The kids had so much fun and love swimming and walking around the property. The ranch is beautiful and we all were able to relax and disconnect from the hectic city life. Christine the host was always available and answered all my questions.
12 dads from Iowa on an annual golf trip. House was great. Pool and hot tub were awesome. Christina was very prompt to respond. Had an issue heating the pool first night. She had someone out to fix it right away and refunded the heating cost for that day without us having to ask. Plan on staying here again next year.
I rented this place for my daughters’ birthday celebration, and it did not disappoint! The pool and spa was perfect, the distance from other structures good, it was nice and quiet, and the house itself was perfect! Great accommodations, a good kitchen for cooling meals for 10, a nice large table inside and out….and did I mention the awesome pool and spa? It was very comfortable! Thank you!
This was a great house for hosting and celebrating my sister 40th birthday with family. Great rooms, AC working great. Nice kitchen and living area to eat and hangout. Loved the outside set up the pool and great games to play while enjoying the day with family. Super cute decor very country loved the cute boots in every room. I would totally do this house again! Host was a great communicator and very attentive to any questions or needs! Thank you Christina!

The pictures make the place look nicer than it is. I booked this stay for a high school softball team. The gils said they found lots of bugs inside. The pool house where the coach stayed had no hot water. The two coaches had to take cold showers. The inside is nice and rooms are nice however the futons style beds should not be listed as beds. High school girls couldn’t even sleep on them. We had to go buy air mattresses to make it all work.

We had a great time and the property hosts/owners were very responsive and helpful if we ran into any issues. Great place for a group.
The ranch was just like the pictures... spacious, clean with A/C, salt water pool and spa. Christina answered all messages quickly and efficiently. Our family vacation, with 11 grandchildren, was so relaxing and fun. The swings, hammocks and playing around the open fenced in area was fun for the kids but especially the pool and night time swimming with the changing lights. It was a hit! With 20 in our party, we had space for everyone. We even had an uninvited guest of the ranch mgr. dog that we all enjoyed after we got used to her. The kids wanted to take her home. All in all very fun 5 days! Thank you so much.
My husband, daughter and I moved to La Quinta a few years ago and we feel fortunate every day that we get to live in this beautiful city. The Coachella Valley is a magical place and we are happy that we can share our homes with vacationers from all over the world. We are committed to ensuring that our guest have a fun- filled, relaxing stay and fully enjoy the beauty that the desert life has to offer.
