Fun Modern Home!
This is a perfect place to stay for Modernism Week or anytime! The updates to this Krisel designed home are thoughtful and the furnishings are fabulous. It was very comfortable for four adults. The location makes it easy to get to downtown with a short drive, and it is close to groceries, gas, etc. The neighborhood is quiet and interesting to walk around. We enjoyed the lovely pool and hot tub surrounded by beautiful landscaping. All the appliances are pretty new and heat/air conditioning functioned well. We had a great stay and would highly recommend staying here, especially if you are a fan of mid-century modern design.

So Mid-Century
We will come back for sure. This home was so cool. It's exactly how pictures show yet better in person. Such a great neighborhood. My teenage daughter and her friend loved the pool. Host was great. I had a couple questions and all were answered right away. This place does not disappoint.

Completely As Advertised!
We have been VRBOing for over 15 years now. It is refreshing when a property represents itself on the site completely as it is. Usually there is a few things that have aged since the pics were taken or have been slightly exaggerated. Not in this case. What you see and read in the property description is what you get. The neighbourhood is nestled in a quiet mid century modern neighbourhood. Super easy to navigate the streets to stores, amenities and so close to the Palm springs strip. The beds were SUPER comfy(all of them), the kitchen was well appointed(I'm a home chef), and the living area was as shown; mid century modern chic. The piece du resistance is the back yard and pool. This property has the nicest backyard pool area we have experienced in our travels(Florida, California and Hawaii). The grass is plush and soft, the trees provide shade in the heat of the afternoon and the salt water pool is heated without extra charge(rare we've found). The view of the mountains is spectacular as you look out over the pool from the deck chairs. The firepit really can pump out the heat if needed(we were here during the SoCal Spring of 2023 cool weather, so it came in handy). We stayed 2 weeks and never found ourselves pining for a change of scenery. Difficult to find negatives to this property. If I were to be extremely picky I would say that the small low end Weber BBQ struggled in the windy weather to produce enough HP for a good char on a steak. Oh yeah, as with my previous experience with other mid century mod furniture, while it looks nice, it isn't built for comfort. Having said that, I(our entire crew) wouldn't hesitate for a second to book this property again. Thanks to Jeff and Chris for their attentiveness, attention to detail and the welcome basket. Fantastic property.
