Great home base for exploring the area

The house was a perfect place for us to relax and swim or rest in between sightseeing and exploring Palm Springs, Joshua Tree, the Aerial Tramway and San Jacinto.

The Ranch Rocks!

We spent a superb week enjoying all aspects of this fabulous home. Colin has thought of everything you need in a home from home. The pool was brilliant and we loved spending our days relaxing in the garden.

Great Location with Awesome Mountain Views

A very nice professionally landscaped home with a good pool and hot tub facing the mountains. We spent numerous nights watching the sunsets and local hummingbirds from either in the hot tub or pool - extremely calm and relaxing. At night, many of the local residences also have professional uplighting accenting the many types of palm trees creating a surreal work of art in the quiet neighborhood.The home is centrally located and convenient to shopping / restaurants, and some local nice golf courses so really the best of both worlds.The owner was a pleasure to work with. We would definitely rent this property again.

Palm Springs Heaven

We absolutely loved our stay at the Rockette Ranch in Palm Springs. The house was exceptionally clean and located in a quiet neighbourhood, close to everything Palm Springs has to offer. The weather didn't really co-operate but the pool, hot tub and house certainly helped make our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. We will definitely be back 😊

Mid-Century charm

Rockette Ranch has been lovingly retored to its Mid-Century Modern origin with every modern upgrade seamlessly included. It is a comfortable, welcoming house in a very convenient area of town--a few minutes drive from anywhere in Palm Springs. The owner is very accommodating and helpful without being intrusive dureing your stay. The price is quite reasonable considering there is no surcharge fo heating the pool and spa. I've rented several properties in PS over the years but would return to Rockette Ranch in a heartbeat based on the pool heating bargain alone. You cannot go wrong at this little gem of a house.

Wonderful place

I visited with my Mom and her cousin , both in their 80s. The house was wonderful. It was very clean, accessible and has a beautiful view. We appreciated the hot tub and pool being heated and used it every day. The house is very well equipped with comfortable beds. Colin the owner was very nice to work with and super inviting. We loved our stay and will try to visit again soon

You won't find a better stay anywhere!

Can't lavish enough praise on Colin's lovely house in a great neighborhood in Palm Springs. Incredibly well stocked with everything and anything you could possibly want. Colin met us personally at check in which was welcome. Lovely indoor and outdoor spaces. Weather was cool for the most part during our stay so even though pool and jacuzzi were heated we didn't take advantage of them as much as we would have liked. Would definitely return without hesitation if the opportunity presents itself. Thanks Colin for a memorable stay in one of our favorite places to be, Palm springs!

Fun in the sun

My husband and I were looking for a VRBO full house rental with a private pool. The pictures did not spoil. We arrived to a beautiful mid-century modern home. The house was immaculate and extremely comfortable. The kitchen had everything you could want and the beds were very comfortable. We loved using the pool, outdoor space and the jacuzzi. Colin was able to get us in a few hours earlier than our check-in time. He came over, meet with us and shared any necessary information. We will definitely return. A hidden gem!

Stay with children

We enjoyed our time here, however the was one hiccup. Upon arrival the owner informed us that he would be coming on Sunday to pick up his RV. This was not previously disclosed. We assumed that they would simply pick up the RV and leave. However, they came inside the house twice without ok’ing with us to make sure it was ok. We have 3 small children. They were there for about 30 minutes and it just made us feel very uncomfortable. I would say that other than this, we did enjoy our time. House was clean and had all the necessities.

Colin was wonderful and very accomodating. Some of the furniture has been upgraded since the pictures in the listin which was nice. The pool and spa are prefect - heated pools are my favourite. The layout of the house is also perfect and the area is amazing. My husband used the available bikes to cycle to downtown PS each morning. My only issue is that there was a strange smell in the house like stale cigarette smoke. I don't know if that's what it was but it was stronger in carpeted areas and came on stronger when the air conditioner would start up. This might not be an issue for many people but we're fairly sensitive to odors so this wasn't great for us.

We recently stayed in Palm Springs with our 16 and 11 year old as part of our tour of the West Coast / Hawaii. We absolutely loved it here. Everything you could possibly need. Pristinely clean. The pool / jacuzzi was wonderful, views amazing and just perfect. Colin was lovely to deal with too. Our only regret is that we weren’t able to stay longer! We hope to come back one day …….

We are local Palm Springs residents, we will respect your privacy but we are available to take care of any issues that might come up during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We bought this house for the spectacular unobstructed mountain views. Unfortunately the best view was from the garage so we tore down the garage and replaced it with a new pool and spa. We then opened up the living room and dining room to the new south facing yard and mountain views.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy morning coffee on the pool patio watching Mt San Jacinto change colors as the sun rises, return in the evening with a glass of wine to watch the sunset. As the mountain turns dark the tram station lights up and watch the tram climbing to the top.
