The “Birdcage” is a cozy, rustic cabin with breathtaking views of the Coachella Valley. Sited high atop the Cahuilla Hills (adjacent to Bighorn Golf Club) and enveloped by the Santa Rosa Mountains, it is only 2 miles from downtown Palm Desert.
My aunt and uncle homesteaded this land in 1948 and built the cabin, affectionately known as 'The Bird Cage'. Frequented by movie stars in the 1950s who valued its privacy, it's one of the last homesteads in our area.

Stayed Feb 27, 2023This is the second time we've stayed at Ann's place, The Birdcage. We love this quirky, unique cabin and it's just perfect for two. But... our favorite part is the 360 degree views where you can watch the sun rise over the mountains in the morning and the sun retreat behind the mountains in the evening. It's location is convenient and at the end of the day it was so nice to return to this little slice of heaven. Thank you for hosting us Ann!

Stayed May 13, 2022This is a wonderful place to stay during your time in Palm Desert. It is perfectly located close to town. The property itself is extremely comfortable with a strong shower and functional layout. The outdoor space is equally well laid out and provides additional space. A great place to get away and relax. Communication with hosts was easy. Don’t hesitate to stay here. We are definitely planning a return trip!

Stayed Mar 17, 2022This is a charming, cozy, simple cabin with wonderfully expansive views - of the sunrises, the valley, the foothills/mountain ridges, the moonlit nights. We ate breakfasts and dinners on the patio and were out and about during the days. Very good hiking trails up the road. Fresh eggs were a bonus. Thanks!
