Good location, in a quiet neighborhood within the expansive and beautifully preserved and gated golf club. Host was very responsive. The house itself needs some tlc, updates and deep cleaning.
I give it 5 stars - but the Spa didn't work (heating issue) which I was really wanting to be able to soak after 18 holes of golf. The good news is - there was a nice bath tub so I took a soak in the bath tub after a long day of golf.

Superb retreat for exploring Borrego Springs
Wonderful two bedrooms golf course home, with hot tub and view of nearby mountains and golf course. Wonderful full kitchen and spacious living area. Great communication from the host. Beds are very comfortable and bathrooms are great as well. Will visit again!
This place was very close within walking distance to our sister and brother-in-law's home, where we spent Thanksgiving. Our gracious host Alberta welcomed us to the home, and we said our good-byes on our last day. Everything was very well communicated.
Whole experience was excellent. Host was very responsive and helpful. House was pristine and beautiful, in a great locations. Would highly recommend this wonderful place to stay when in Anza Borrego.
I needed a quiet getaway in a comfortable and beautiful setting, and that's exactly what I got. The gated entrance made me feel secure, the grounds are desertscaped and immaculately groomed. The house itself offered everything I needed or wanted. I highly recommend it.
Very clean and comfortable, well appointed house in nice community. Outstanding host made sure that all needs were met. I'd stay there again if I was in the area.
We came down for my birthday to play some golf and relax. Second time we’ve stayed here and we’ll be back. The host is very gracious and accommodating. Great location and very relaxing. We love Borrego Springs and the Anza- Borrego Desert and have been exploring the area for twenty plus years. Plenty of places for exploring with our Jeep and Rams Hill is a first class golf course.
Spring wildflowers, big horn sheep, and dark skies at night - relax under the stars in a peaceful oasis with easy access to all that the Anza Borrego desert has to offer!
We like this place. Quiet corner of the world. The house is comfortable. Pet friendly places with step-in shower aren’t all that common. I also recommend the restaurant at the club. Maybe the nicest venue in Borrego Springs, and not all that pricey by today’s standards
Super clean, well equipped, great location. I have privately communicated a suggestion for improvement to the host.We stayed there with another couple and there was plenty of private space. Location is inside manned security gates.

Great place in the desert
This place is very nice. Nice setup and decor, beautiful landscaping and view, well cared for home. The owner is very kind, gracious and responsive. She made the stay easy and got right on it when there were questions and issues.
My friend and I wanted a place away from our cold and snow. We were so excited to try this home away from home. We were so pleased with every aspect of the accommodations as it was everything and more than we expected !! We loved the place and will stay longer next time !!

Nice place and good for dogs
This was our 2nd time here. Nice place. Quiet.Internet searches can be slow. Netflix, etc. runs fine. Rams Hill development is pretty nice. Restaurant has great views, the food is excellent for the price.
My husband and I spent two weeks at this beautiful property. It had everything we could want plus. We totally enjoyed our visit and look forward to doing it again in the future. The owner was extremely prompt in answering our questions, and was always available. We had a great vacation.

Beautiful and comfortable
A very nice home for a Spring trip with my sister and our mom. The home was very easy for mom to navigate -- all one level. The kitchen is very well stocked with pots and pans for cooking dinners. The furniture is very comfortable, and the tub wonderful.
Our first time to Borrego Springs and staying at this home made our trip so enjoyable.
The home located in Ram Hill Resort was close to many places of interest in Anza Borrego State Park.
The gated entry at Ram Hill Resort provided us an extra feeling of safety during our stay.
We look forward to our next trip to Borrego Springs and we will be staying at this home again.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
We enjoyed our 5 night stay in this lovely, spacious home in the Rams Hill Golf Club near Borrego Springs. The patio faced the golf course and the view was more of the native trees and vegetation than the golf course itself which was a plus in our book! We love bird-watching and this was a great place to do it (including seeing two barn owls in the back yard). We also loved the peace and quiet and easy access to town and hiking trails. The host was very responsive to our questions and needs.
Very nice property in a nice area. The host was exceptional , all check in info was easy to follow and contact was quick. We left an item behind and when we contacted Alberta she arranged to personally hand deliver it back to us. That was amazing. Thank you. We will definitely stay at this property again.
