Tom and Nancee, Grand Rapids, MI
Walking through the house to the backyard for the first time is a major surprise. Incredibly beautiful. We are gardeners and could appreciate the landscaping, with tastefully designed pool and hot tub. Coffee each morning poolside with the view of the mountains got the day off to a good start (stunning views). The kitchen is quite roomy and the hosts have appointed this extremely well. If what you need here is not present then you don't need it! The master bedroom bed was wonderful. Our kids visited once from L.A. and the "blow-up" bed really filled the bill for the grand kids, who easily "fit" in the second bedroom with their parents. The outside cabana room was a real plus, complete with comfortable sitting, television, and atmosphere. The attached two-stall garage was another plus, The hosts were very responsive and helpful in pointing out things or answering any questions we had. One problem: it didn't last long enough (and we stayed a month). Highly recommend. We enjoyed hiking and various restaurants -- Lulu's --a wonderful bar for happy hour -- good and nicely priced. This place has a wonderful energy. If you like Mexican food, we recommend Las Casuelas, which is almost next door to Lulu's. Palm Springs is off the charts! We absolutely loved it and will be back -- it's a real place with real people. We travel a fair amount and count this place as one of the best!
