Dog-friendly home with private pool & spa, outdoor kitchen area

• suburban neighbourhood where you need to drive everywhere • poorly maintained house and yard with lots of wind and sand. We rarely used the yard because the furniture (pillow/cushions) we so filthy with dust. • that walkway and landscaping stones that are watered twice a day, in a desert, and deep enough you need to step around it every morning. Many landscaping lights were broken over in the front; plants were sparse; there was an underground water leak in the irrigation system. • a living room TV that spends half its time buffering (although the bedroom doesn’t). But it wasn’t a huge deal because all the mainstream network channels are only available with log-in credentials. We did catch the Superbowl but somewhat the floating pink jelly fish over the plays destroyed any enjoyment; that was Nickelodeon. No Oscars for us. And don’t think you might connect you laptop to the TV to stream – not allowed. The listing indicated there was “cable”, so we didn’t expect fancy channels or a PVR. We did expect mainstream networks. • A house binder with inaccurate instructions and information about services in a different municipality • Sticky front gate – we had to climb over once as we couldn’t get out • Some of the furniture is not very stable – bed frame in ensuite, standing mirror You will now find (thanks to us pressuring VACASA): a toaster that works, hand towels for all four guests, a spa that works, ice cube trays to make ice (the water/ice feature of the frig doesn’t work), dinner plates that fit in the microwave. Burnt out bulbs replaced. The serious leak (that started after a repair person was looking at the water system to the frig) under the kitchen sink was fixed by a plumber. We’ve left in place our temporary fix for the leak in the office – towels and a styrofoam cooler to catch the drips during rainstorms (the most we measured was 4 inches). The promo pictures are accurate, but when you look a bit deeper the property is poorly maintained. Nor is it particularly well -appointed for long-term guests. The lemon and grapefruit from the backyard were delicious and the fragrance off the trees lovely. We have been coming to the Palm Springs area for 2 decades. This was our worst house. Vacation Palm Springs Rentals was great years ago when they were truly a local company; we don't plan to rent through VACASA again. Note: we rented for 2 months mid-Jan to mid-Feb.

The rooms were large and comfortable. The outdoor space and pool/spa was relaxing! The only thing I would say that is minor were the rugs in the master bedroom and office. They are a little older and warping at the edges so we were tripping on them often. It could hurt someone so I would suggest removing them to be safe. Again very minor! The house was still one of the best I have stayed in.

I loved the house overall

For the most part this was a nice place. Cons: you are in the middle if the desert but the air doesn't go below 78 degrees. Thank goodness for the pool because I was dripping sweat the whole time. Stains all over master bedroom carpet. Missing obvious kitchen utensils like spatula. Pros: Very nice pool, and yard. Beautiful house and very quiet neighborhood. Close to freeway and MN any places to eat. Try Don and sweet Sue's Cafe, It is a must and did not disappoint! Overall I would rent again but probably only in early spring or fall.

Had a fantastic stay! Great neighborhood, perfect location, and an amazing house for my short getaway. The home has everything you need! Communication with Monica was excellent! 10/10 recommended this home!

The house was beautiful , clean, amazing backyard with cozy pool and spa,I love this house very much,I have been renting houses in Palm Springs many years but this house was the best and I am going to rent next time again!

We had an absolutely lovely time and all our concerns were promptly addressed by the vacasa staff

In every respect this property (and the management) is better than described. Every possible need for a relaxing, hang around the pool, bbq, watch movies, cook gourmet meals. You name it, it's there. Location could be better, but wherever you are in PS you're going to need a car, so location is not important (10 minutes to downtown).

It's a wonderful House and pool area but it was in the wrong place. Besides the wind we had parties and loud music, barking dogs. We had to call the code enforcement for the loud music. It would be a great place for a family with young kids but for us wanting a quiet time to relax it didn't work out.

Web pictures don't do the home justice; its even better in person. Yard and pool is great with lots of sun and where necessary shade. A few minor issues experienced but nothing major.
