About this property

The Lemon Tree Casita – A Charming Pied-à-Terre in Palm Springs

(The City of Palm Springs ID #2893, TOT #9186)

The Lemon Tree Casita is one of the most charming and cozy pied-à-terres in Palm Springs, located in the iconic “Club Condominiums” — a beautifully maintained complex once favored by Hollywood stars. This tranquil retreat is perfect for rest and relaxation.

Why do we call it the Lemon Tree Casita, you ask? Because of the beautiful Meyer lemon tree on the patio, always bursting with fresh lemons to enjoy.

Located in the Racquet Club neighborhood, this 787 sq. ft. studio is ideal for two guests and just minutes from coffee shops, restaurants, the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, and scenic hiking trails.

Inside, you'll find a full kitchen with a convection oven/microwave, a gas fireplace, a large bathroom with a newly renovated walk-in shower, washer and dryer, and a small desk if you need to work. The studio is filled with natural light thanks to four skylights and opens to a private patio with mountain views. A covered parking spot and nearby guest parking are included.

The gated community features lush, manicured grounds, a stunning heated saltwater pool, and a spa tub. In citrus season, guests are welcome to pick fresh fruit from the many trees throughout the property. With a major supermarket just 4 minutes away and downtown Palm Springs only 1.5 miles by foot, convenience and serenity are both within easy reach.

Loved Lemon Tree Casita!

It was the perfect size for my husband and my weeklong getaway to Palm Springs. It was sparkling clean, beautifully appointed and the patio had an amazing mountain view! It is walking distance or a short Uber ride to downtown. The pool and hot tub were amazing and sometimes we were the only people using it. The check in process was easy, the owners Pam and Todd were great to work with. We will definitely stay here again!!

A Pleasant Stay In Palm Springs

A very clean, quiet, and well appointed unit with lots of thoughtful touches such as bottled water in the refrigerator. Excellent communication with/from the owner. It was pleasant walking around the surrounding nicely manicured grounds. It was an easy drive to downtown and other"touristy" destinations. My wife and I would not hesitate a moment to stay there again if we revisit the area. A jolly good time was had by all.

Some Needed Lemon Aid

What a great place to stay for a couple in Palm Springs! Perfect size for two, adorable, quiet, super clean (and we are super picky), and very well appointed. Really appreciated meeting Pam in person at check-in and her periodic (but not overbearing) text messages throughout our stay. She made us feel like if we needed anything (which we didn't), either her or her husband would be right there to help. We would go back in a heartbeat! Thanks Pam & Todd!

Perfect couples retreat!!

The Lemon Tree Casia is a perfect retreat for a retired couple. It was very clean and stocked with all the amenities you could ask for. In fact, I asked if there was a magnified makeup mirror and Pam said there wasn't one available, but she went out and bought one!! How thoughtful. That attention to detail for their guests was also evident in the fresh picked fruit, water and a bottle of red wine!! It was nice to have the host meet you in person and explain everything about the condo. The mountain view from the patio was amazing!! Pam and Todd were available for any questions that you had. We would definitely stay here again!!
