House was everything and more. So clan and comfortable. Outdoor area can’t be beat. Our group loved the amenities (there were SO many, we didn’t even get to use them all!) great proximity to store (walking distance) and tennis. We would love to come back one day!
Absolutely STUNNING Event Home with World-Class Amenities! My wife's 70th birthday celebration was an absolute success, and it was all thanks to this incredible event home & it's ex
This home is perfect for a family gathering or event. Beautiful, spacious, extremely well-equipped. Lots of activities....everything from a pool table to a pickleball court, volleyball, bocce, cornhole...everything! The bedrooms are all comfortable. The location is convenient. Nancy was easy to contact and responsive. Highly recommend this property for a family stay!
My family had an awesome stay. Everything from the booking to the check in to the stay and the check out went very smoothly. Nancy the host is great to deal with.
Our family spent six nights at Nancy‘s place in Palm Desert. The home and grounds were amazing and as advertised. Nancy was communicative and helpful whenever we needed it! I highly recommend.
Was an absolutely perfect place for me to celebrate my 80th birthday and the Thanksgiving week with my wife and family. Once there you don't want to leave--we only left for two rounds of golf and one evening dinner.

We had a great time with our family at this beautiful property. It’s well stocked with everything you need. Our kids had a ton of space to play. It was super relaxing for the whole group.

You were amazing guests!!! Come back anytime!!! You took such great care of our beautiful home:)
House and amenities are perfect for an active family who enjoys hanging out together.....pool, spa, pickle ball court, ping pong, pool, corn ball toss, bocci ball, volley ball, basket ball. The house is amazing with ample accommodations for a large family.
This home is beautiful and had all that we needed for a fun getaway. My family came out from different states and we really enjoyed the pool, and all the other sport offerings. Plenty of room for dining, cooking and sleeping for the 13 of us. We had a great time! Nancy was a very gracious host and responded quickly to any questions we had.
Nancy was wonderful! She sent text messages and videos setting us up for an easy check in and stay. The property is as advertised. This will be our new go to property in palm desert.
It was more than expected. Everything was above 5 star. We stayed here between wedding activities for my daughter and the serenity and space was loved by all. Nancy was always a text away. Highly recommended.
We spent four nights here as a group of ten, enjoying Indian wells. And no one really wanted to tleave the house - so much space and so well decorated and landscaped. We stay at 8-10 vrbos every year for decades and the communication and check in process was the best! Can’t wait to return and stay longer.
Did a guys trip here with 10 other guys and the place was great. Plenty of space outside with lots to do. There were a couple minor issues that were dealt with swiftly. It is exactly like the pictures which is a good thing. Was a great experience.
House and property were amazing. It was too hot to enjoy all the backyard amenities (it got to 118°) but would love to go back in spring or fall. The back covered patio was huge and perfect for the hot weather, pool was great, overall just amazing!
This house was amazing and perfect for my active competitive family with more games and things to do then we could get to. Definitely a luxury property we would stay at again. Nancy was great in her communication with us and very helpful with any questions that came up. Would highly recommend and we will likely be staying here again. Brian

Thank you Brian!!! I really appreciate the feedback! You were super guests and I'll look forward to having you all again!!!
For many years our children and grandchildren have traveled with us for Thanksgiving. Maui and Kauai have been two long-time favorites and now we will add Palm Desert. The house is lovely with many gathering spaces but the best part is all of the outside activities. Pickleball became a favorite and we had many family matches. Nancy was responsive when we had questions and made our stay and Thanksgiving dinner preparation as smooth as can be. Definitely a place we would like to return to!

Thank you for being such wonderful guests, and for the lovely review! I’m so glad you enjoyed our home so much. I guess the Pickleball court was a good idea!
Nancy was amazing from start to finish. Detailed videos were provided of the home and how to get in and get out and use everything. The home was immaculate. It never ended. Just a massive compound of fun activities. Comfortable big and clean. Saving for future visits. 10/10
Fabulous vacation home fully equipped with everything. Home shows pride of ownership and host Nancy goes above and beyond to help guests feel comfortable in her home. Pool features impressive, beautiful gardens, large sand area and fire pit/conversation area in addition to basketball and pickleball courts. Property exactly as Nancy describes. Was wonderful home for 50th Anniversary multi-generational family gathering. All of us agreed we would love to stay here again!
The pictures don’t do this property justice. The place had everything you could imagine and more. The host was there for the few questions I had and made us feel like we were family. We would 100% go back if we had a larger group trip or family vacation. The pool was perfect and the house was in great condition. Having the casita was an added plus for people who wanted to go to bed earlier. 10/10 I’d rate this place.
Nancy’s house is amazing. Every amenity. The backyard is gorgeous. Perfect to host a party. We had adults and kids from 2-13 years old. Everyone wanted to stay forever. Nancy made everything so easy. She was easy to talk to and available for questions. I would love to come back someday!
Our family used this piece of paradise to stay with our family for a milestone birthday celebration. It was a perfect space to welcome multiple families, preferences and age ranges. We had grandparents, parents, young adults and children all finding their own space to enjoy and we had the perfect common areas to enjoy meals and game time together. Aside from the property, the owner is super accommodating and responsive. I'm trying to find another reason to come back with another set of friends! What a memorable way to spend our family vacation!
