Oasis in the desert!

So enjoyed staying in this charming midcentury house. Amazing views from everywhere, inside and out. Great location. Close to the park and town, but also lots of privacy and unobstructed views of the desert. Overall a great home base to both relax and explore the area!

Relaxing week in perfect home

The house was just beautiful and exactly met our needs. The location was perfect. Such amazing views and so many different areas surrounding the home to enjoy them. The pool and hot tub were big favorites for the kids. Brand new grill was much enjoyed. I will look to stay only there whenever we return.

Lovely home in a beautiful setting.

We enjoyed our stay in the Poppy House. Very close to the State Park and a wide range of scenic desert hikes. It is also close to stores and restaurants in the charming town of Borrego Springs but it still felt private and peaceful. The home is spotless, beds are comfortable, and the kitchen is well stocked for cooking. We really loved the pool area with hot tub. Terrie was super nice and accommodating. All around great stay!
