Guestbook Comment
This was my first experience with VBRO and I picked the right home to start with. The owners are very helpful and knowledgable about the area. The rental process and return of all deposits went smoothly. However, the home was the best part. A truly beautiful location, fabulous decor and all the comforts of home and then some. I plan on making VBRO my only choice for travel. Thanks again to Donna and Beth.
House is exactly as pictured. We did not have access to the Casita as it was rented out to a long term renter. Rooms are spacious and the back yard is large and well maintained. Kitchen is well stocked with quality appliances and cookware. Plenty of dishes and silverware. Beds are very soft. Quiet gated community that has 3 pools, tennis courts, and playground. Only one pool was heated during out stay and was a 10 minute walk from the house. Easy access to I-10 and hwy 111. Not far from downtown Palm Springs which has numerous restaurants and shops.
Can tell that the owners take great pride and care of this property.

A Great Vacation Getaway.
This is a well appointed and equipped property located at the foot of the San Jacinto Mountains. The neighborhood is quiet and very walkable/bikeable, with nice tennis courts and multiple pools. We have stayed a month, and it felt very much like home. The owners obviously have great pride of ownership and maintain it and use it as a second home, not just a rental. It is conviently located a few minutes drive from downtown Palm Springs, with surprisingly easy access to other area cities.

Many Pluses to this Property
For our stay for the month of February we were impressed by the spaciousness of each room, the well stocked kitchen, good appliances and lots of good towels and bedding. Good use was made of the bikes available, riding around the Mountain Gate development for our exercise. We were disappointed the nearest pool was not heated.
This was our sixth home rented annually in greater Palm Springs and not our first choice on location, more traveling to theaters, favorite restaurants, friends in Indio, but great access to our many favored Palm Springs restaurants and activities. Having two ensuites for two couples was appreciated. With this location for us and some updating, particularly flooring, required plus larger cleaning and hidden VRBO booking fee, we felt the accommodation was somewhat over priced, unless you need all four bedrooms.

Great Place to Escape the Winter Blues!
We visited here last winter and were thoroughly impressed with the whole experience. It was located near great amenities, golf courses and dining. The house itself is clean, well maintained and had all of the amenities we needed. Would highly recommend.

Great Winter Escape
My winter escape from Chicago. Stayed at this house for 4 months. This is one of the best houses I rented. I have been at Ojai, Laguna beach and Redondo beach for the past three years for winter. House is in a gated community close to town and close to windmills. House is open and spacious. Kitchen is well equipped. Loved having the Casita. Great place to entertain my golf buddies from Chicago. Nice backyard where we spent drinking morning coffee and evening tea. Few steps from the house is Jacuzzi. I used to enjoy the Jacuzzi looking at the surrounding mountains. Only problem was the reception on my cell phone was poor and intermittent. However they have free local and long distance unlimited calling with their landline. You have to rent a PO box. Home owner and Manager were very responsive and quickly resolved issues promptly. All in all, it was a great place to stay and I may return again in the future.

Great Value!
My friends and I rented this property for a long weekend of golf in the Palm Springs area. The house was very reasonably priced and absolutely immaculate. All the instructions we received were very clear and easily followed. I will definitely be checking the availability of this house on all my future visits to the area. Thank you Donna and Elizabeth for a wonderful stay.

Great Family Vacation
This home was a great place for our family of 8 adults to get together. The living area and kitchen are spacious. We enjoyed cooking together and having good conversations at the dining table. The 3 bathrooms made it easy to get ready for going out or clean up after our wonderful hike on the San Jacinto mountain. The home was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking.
The location is wonderful, close to the Palm Springs Areal Tram and downtown Palm Springs with many great restaurants and shops. The neighborhood is very quite and peaceful. We would recommend this house to anyone that needs a larger place to gather.

January stay in Palm Springs
This home definitely had great view of the mountains, as well as plenty of space inside - including a huge master bedroom and kitchen. It was extremely clean and well appointed, with comfortable beds and
just about everything else a person could want. The owners were very helpful with many good suggestions and lots of great information. The casita was great for the couple that appreciated a bit more privacy. Our family gathering there was wonderful!

Vacation Dream Home
Our stay was dreamy from start to finish. The owners made our vacation planning a breeze. The second we stepped through the door, we felt right at home and knew we had made the right decision. The rooms were as spacious as the pictures showed, especially the master bedroom with a huge ensuite bath. Loved having our coffee and croissants in the backyard with the morning light illuminating the spectacular mountain views. We barbecued out there in the evening with the stars looking down on us. The house has the kitchen of my dreams and the amenities throughout made us feel quite pampered during our stay. Truly a sanctuary, this peaceful home was the perfect vacation spot.

Nice Place for Family Reunion
This lovely home was the perfect place for three couples to spend a long weekend. The large living room with dining table was perfect for talking and eating with our group. I liked the in-law bedroom entered outside the front door for its privacy. The house was clean and well maintained. It's a nice neighborhood to walk in; we had trouble with the remote control for the gated entry otherwise everything else was really nice. I would definitely stay here again!

Dear Donna / Elizabeth,We...
Dear Donna / Elizabeth,We were apprehensive about renting a “Brand NEW” home especially without pictures. This was our first experience of renting a destination home. Your reassurance and follow through was outstanding. Every detail and commitment you made was kept and then some. Everything from your quotation to the return of our deposit was professional and timely. Our rental experience was wonderful and beyond our expectations. We now have many wonderful pictures and memories of the 10 days spent in your home.Your home is everything that you say in your advertisement. We slept so soundly in your comfortable beds (the mattress pads must be the secret). Our trip to Palm Springs was to celebrate our parents 60th Anniversary. Everyone in our family (all 8) and our visitors were very impressed with the décor, spaciousness and quality of your home and the furnishings.Thank you so much for making our vacation so enjoyable and worry free. I highly recommend this property rental! Barry Brown & Family, Abbotsford, B.C. Canada

Relaxing and Quiet for family
People were easy to work with. The house was so nice and clean as described (clean is really important to me) and well stocked (plenty of towels in linen closet, plates, utensils and such). The beds were super comfortable. There were 7 of us, ranging in age from 16 to 82 and we all enjoyed it. My dad uses a cane and a walker and had no trouble navigating the house as it was large and open (small step up to get inside). Mostly we ate at the house except for one very yummy dinner at Johnny Costas in downtown Palm Springs. The mountain view from the backyard patio and the community pool was beautiful. We loved the open kitchen/living room floor plan. The community pool areas and tennis courts were perfect, large and clean and quiet with lots of chairs and shade area. There is also grassy areas at the end of the blocks which we used to kick around a soccer ball and hit a volleyball. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend this property.

We stayed here during the Christmas 2009
Holiday season along with another
family.
Just wanted to say that we loved the
place. It is pretty high-end, great
location next to the aerial tramway and
awesome views from the backyard. It has
an awesome fully stocked kitchen and
everything that one would need for a
more-than-comfortable stay. The complex
itself is very quiet and has
pool/jacuzzi which we could use even in
winter! Fully recommended!
