This is a great place to stay in the desert. Wonderful views from the backyard sitting around the fire pit. This is a very comfortable home in a quiet neighborhood. Close to town and short drives to many of the scenic areas around Borrego Springs.
The house was very comfortable, pretty well appointed and clean. Appreciated it was pet friendly and in a quiet neighborhood. This was our 2nd stay and I'm sure not the last.
Love this house, just what you need for a desert getaway. This was our second visit to the property and we had no issues. We love that there is nothing but vast desert behind the property. Thank you.
House clean and everything worked. Very beautiful location, very quiet, with open desert right out the back yard, a big plus for nature lovers, trail runners and dog owners. The house even includes an Orion telescope, to take advantage of the dark sky. Host was very helpful. Would highly recommend as a place to stay in Anza Borrego.
We enjoyed our quiet weekend stay at this location. It's a short drive to the center of the town of Borrego Springs, and the interior is comfortable, more than enough space for two adults, and with all the amenities we needed for a relaxing stay.
This location was perfect for a quiet get away to enjoy the stars at night and some light off roading during the day. Host was pleasant and very responsive. Would love to stay there agaiy
My father and I traveled to see the spring blooms. The home was a perfect base location, the neighboorhood is quiet, and we enjoyed the sunrises in the back yard.
We came with a group of 5 friends and family to enjoy day hiking in Anza Borrego, and the house was perfect for that. The location is great, the house is spacious, and the kitchen and BBQ were very useful.
Check in was smooth. The location was quiet. The kitchen was better equipped with dishes, pots and pans, etc. for cooking than your typical rental, which we appreciated. There could have been a few more blankets for the kid’s bedroom. Overall, we had a peaceful stay.
My husband and I recently spent 3 nights at this property in Borrego Springs. The location is amazing. We were able to walk out the backyard into the desert. Minus one star due to the cleanliness in the kitchen, however Ruth did offer to send a cleaner out. Overall we would love to return to this property.
Beautiful home, quiet and nicely appointed. The great thing about this property is it's location, with the back yard vistas of nothing but desert, sunrises and sunsets. It's a short drive into town (Christmas Circle) and we rode our e-bikes around the neighborhood.
As advertised, the house situated st the edge of the desert, was peaceful, comfortable, and provided a space to enjoy the quiet beauty of Borrego Springs area.
Overall this was a nice stay and some of the things I'll mention are personal preferences so I don't want to assume others will be bothered. The AC is set to not go below 72, which is too hot for sleeping for those of us who stayed here, unfortunately VRBO is all AI communication now which was incredibly frustrating. Eventually we were able to talk to the property manager (not the actual owner) and get the minimum turned down. This property seems like it exists purely to be a rental which is why I don't use air b&b so that was a bit frustrating. Having a required minimum for the day makes perfect sense and 72 is very reasonable but it's far too hot for sleep for many people. There is no hair dryer and no washer and dryer either. Both of these are in every rental I've ever stayed in so that was a bit surprising and inconvenient. The floors were a bit dirty (as many people have noted in other reviews) so if you're bothered by that plan to wear socks or slippers around. Lastly, the pillows are extremely flat for side sleepers. I ended up folding a towel under my pillow for more height. Besides that everything else was pretty nice, there were other quirks but overall it's a decent house. I loved the little painting decals throughout on the walls, very lovely and sweet. The most important part is the beautiful starry sky and the seats out back where you can sit and star gaze. Wonderful.

Hot hot hot!
Borrego was 115 degrees, so the air conditioner in the house was much appreciated. The house is charming and cozy. The area is quiet and the views are fantastic.
