Great rental with thoughtful and responsive owners
We had an amazing experience with this home and owners during our 2 month pandemic rental. The home was just as described with exceptional mountain and fairway views from the deck, living room, and kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances and utensils for grilling, baking, and cooking. Beds and linens were comfortable, water was always hot, and the garage was spacious for our vehicle and gear.
The owners, Linda and Allen, were welcoming, helpful, and extraordinarily responsive. They thought of almost every detail renters could need, including having a back up printer toner cartridge available. They even allowed use of holiday decorations including an awesome Christmas palm tree. When the furnace had an issue, Allen had a repair person analyzing it within 2 hours, and the malfunctioning part replaced within 4 hours.
The location on the 7th fairway of Monterey Country Club’s east course was private and quiet, and an easy walk to all the complex amenities. Pools and hot tubs are available for renters use. Meals from the clubhouse are reasonably priced, and during the pandemic include free delivery. Golfers can purchase reasonably priced Tier memberships which also include access to the outdoor fitness center and sports courts. We enjoyed both group and private golf lessons.
The home is well situated to access endless hiking trails, multiple mountain ranges, as well as shopping and art opportunities in Palm Desert and Palm Springs.
We hope to return to this home and rent from Linda and Allen again.
