Lovely stay in Tahquitz

Had a comfortable stay in a great property. Owner was very friendly and was easy to communicate with. Enjoyed the pool area especially. Got out and walked the neighborhood with our dog, we loved the peace and quiet of the neighborhood, so lovely at night. Great proximity to downtown PS and all the restaurants and shopping. Perfect location!

Danny was a fantastic host and made sure we knew all the ins and out of the house when we arrived. The house was great and had everything we needed. Just a shame as the weather meant we couldn't use the pool as planned which was so sad as the whole backyard set up is amazing. If we return to Palm Springs again we'll definitely look to see if Danny's house is available.

Great experience. Beautiful backyard and pool with lots of lounge areas. Only complaint would be the gate which we had to manually open and close to park the car or leave.

Look no further, pick this gorgeous home

A classic Palm Springs home and visit! We only had a weekend to enjoy it and wish we had longer. A perfect location and home - the pool is fantastic, the views, the landscaping, the photo ops, comfy beds… I’m so glad we found this gem. It was my first time in PS, and we will be back and hopefully stay here!

My girlfriends and I spent the weekend here and were very happy with our stay. The property description doesn't include all of the amenities that are offered. Everything you could need was provided. When we return to Palm Springs, we will be booking this property.

An Oasis in Palm Springs

My husband and I couldn't have enjoyed our stay more at Danny's home. The beautiful decor allowed us to slip right into that laid back mid century vibe for the entire week. The home itself is extremely comfortable and fully equipped in every way. Equally delightful is the pool and patio area, where we spent most of our time. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and think the Taquitz River Canyon Estates and Deepwell neighborhoods are the best part of Palm Springs to stay. We definitely hope to return, perhaps for two weeks next time!

Why they chose this property

The USS San Lorenzo is located in the south part of Palm Springs. This is a very quiet and safe neighborhood. This neighborhood is not in the windy part of town.

I have an awesome view of the mountain from both the pool and Jacuzzi.
