About this property

Travel Back in Time to this Gorgeous 1950's Remodel

Beautifully appointed 2 bedroom, 2 bath home at the top of La Quinta cove. Two blocks from hiking trails and bike paths. This 1950's home has been completely remodeled and updated with designer finishes. This cozy home comfortably sleeps 6 and is great for small families or a romantic couples getaway. There is a large great room with the original stone wood burning fireplace for those cozy desert evenings. The home is on a double lot with a large grass yard for youngsters to play (rare in La Quinta cove) and the dog to run. A beautiful stone waterfall feature will lull you to deep rest and relaxation as you enjoy the beautiful desert days. Two blocks from the Cove Oasis trailheads and the Fred Wolff Bear Creek Nature Trail where you can walk, jog or ride a bike.

Two bedrooms have brand new comfy memory foam mattresses as well as a Queen sleeper sofa and a twin sleeper sofa in the Great room - both have brand new memory foam mattresses as well.

There is also an outdoor living area with seating for six, high top bar table, lounge chair and BBQ. The designer kitchen is completely equipped with all necessities including spices and cookware, utensils, and full barware.

We welcome you to come and be our guests in this very special desert retreat.

Beautiful Home

Due to our travel lifestyle, I stayed at over 20 properties last year, and this was the cleanest, most well-stocked property I have ever been to, and the beds were comfortable! If you like being outdoors is close to hiking trails and downtown La Quinta is just a few minutes away.

Wonderful experience in La Quinta! Beautiful house - decorated with every comfort in mind: coffee/tea, filtered water, great linens and beds, and a lovely back yard. Perfect for friends/family.

Perfect for our likes and needs.

The house and location are great. The proximity to the Santa Rosa mountains, the walking /hiking trails, the views, and the nearby oases, are outstanding. The grassy back yard, is private and relaxing, for us and our dog. The house is equipped with most everything we could need. It’s also a short drive to restaurants and services. All of the above are reasons we have made repeat visits, for weeks at a time.

Hidden gem with incredible back yard

This property looks just like the photos. Charming decor through out and very well maintained. We felt cozy and at home. Unfortunately, we were there for dog shows so we didn’t spend that much time relaxing and hanging out. The dogs absolutely love the yard and were more relaxed than being at a hotel.

Amazing hosts

This is our second time staying at this house. The owners are so generous and classy with everything. They welcome you with a fresh baked goods ( changes every time) so beautiful and comfy house, one minute walk to hiking trails and 2 minute drive to town. All the places we have stayed in the past, they had a long list of to do list before checking out, but this place did not want us to do anything ❤️❤️❤️

Clean and quiet, nicely equipped

Very clean, beautiful backyard with comfortable furniture, super quiet. Owner is responsive and generous, lots of coffee capsules, paper goods, streaming TV etc. Extra clean sheets and towels. One thing to know is that the bathroom for the second bedroom is not adjacent— you have to walk through the kitchen, dining room, down three steps and across the living room to get there, quite a hike in the middle of the night.

Oasis in the Desert

Very clean. They have everything and I mean everything you need here. We overpacked thinking I would need basic amenities. This place has all that covered. The house is super clean and welcoming, the yard is spectacular. I had breakfast on “the rock” each morning with my lizard buddies. You are surrounded by beautiful mountains. For us flatlanders of Ohio it truly made my first trip to the desert one to remember. Thank you so much for your hospitality!!! Angela and Randy Long

Immaculately Clean, beautifully appointed

2 adult friends recently spent a long weekend at the property. The house was spotless clean. The furnishings and decor are soothing & comfortable. The attention to quality & detail is evident in every room. The beds, linens, towels all high quality. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. The owners had fresh baked cookies waiting for us. The house is on a spacious lot, with grass, shade tree, soothing water feature & comfortable patio furnishings. Owner communication was quick, responsive & welcoming. I highly recommend this property !

Beautiful, great location

This home was even more beautiful than depicted in the photos and description. I would not change a thing about it. Beautifully appointed, with every detail considered for guests, my friend and I and my dog enjoyed a fun, relaxing weekend here. Catherine and Tim were exceptionally responsive to our (only one or two) questions. The home is thoughtfully furnished, and impeccably landscaped, we enjoyed sunrises, sunsets, and hikes on the local trails in the canyon just a very short walk from the house. It is a short drive to La Quinta Village where we enjoyed some delicious meals and shopping. I hope to stay here again net year, we loved it.

Wonderful house, yard and location!

We stayed here during the tennis match and therefore spent little time at the house. But when we were there, the house, property and location met every need. Extremely clean, attractive, pleasant and with all needed amenities. The house is remodeled to a 50s style with all modern conveniences--very comfortable and well equipped to deal with heat. As others have pointed out, the yard is large, attractive and really pleasant. We sat outside for breakfast most mornings. Hosts were excellent communicators. Best of all, the house is just 1.5 blocks from an extensive park system with hiking trails of all lengths. Really enjoyed those early morning walks! All in all, a great place to stay!
