Highly recommended by previous guests! A Recent Guest Review: “This house was so beautiful. The interior was unique and had everything we needed. The host also left detailed instructions on everything which made it easy to figure out where things were/how to work certain systems etc. Everything was also extremely clean which is always great. Although, the best part was the backyard. Such a large space with provided games like corn hole as well as floaties for the pool. We had so much fun here and I would definitely book with this host again.” - Brooke

Location:
Our home is located in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Tram View Heights, a community that reflects the evolving character of Palm Springs. The area is experiencing redevelopment and growth, adding to its vibrant and dynamic atmosphere. Like other parts of Palm Springs. Like many urban areas, you may notice a visible homeless population in the city, including downtown and surrounding regions. However, rest assured that the property offers a private, peaceful retreat, perfect for social gatherings without concerns about noise. While the neighborhood lacks many sidewalks, it’s ideal for those who prefer a more relaxed environment, though it may not be the best for long walks with dogs. The home is particularly suited for adults looking to enjoy the lively, diverse energy and the unique charm of Palm Springs. Please consider this when planning your stay, as it may not offer the conveniences typically sought for family visits.
