The Grotto- 5bd/4ba-Waterfalls-Pool-Spa-Games Room-Secluded Acreage

Beautiful property. Plenty of space. Great for family time. Pool was amazing. Beds were very comfy. It was a little bit older house and this a few things a little less accessible, like the master shower. But very quaint and perfect for what we needed. Host was very easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend.

A great place to stay, we had a lot of fun with our friends just relaxing by the pool and enjoying the house. Norman was great, communicating well ahead of time so that we had everything we needed for a fun trip!

Really enjoyed the house, had all the amenities, the hot tub access was a bit tricky… use caution. It was expensive however it was also Stagecoach weekend! Pool/jacuzi controls were a bit tricky as well however the host was very responsive and helpful with everything! My sister left clothes behind and they promptly returned them to us which was greatly appreciated!

What a great property! Had eight gals in our group that was in the desert for a golf tournament. Everyone enjoyed all the amenities...lots of pool time, game room time and cocktails on the patio!! The pool was absolutely amazing! The location is definitely secluded and private. No worries if you want to play your music louder than a whisper, and no nosy neighbors sniffing around before you've unpacked your car (yes, has happened twice to our group on previous stays at other properties). House was spotless and just as described. The owner, Norman, provided all the instructions for operating everything in the house which was super useful and easy to follow. He was awesome with passing on all the necessary information!If you are looking for a great place for a large group, and you don't need to be right next to downtown, this is the spot. Short drive if you need anything, but you feel like you are in your own private oasis!!

This house was perfect for our senior boys trip. Eight boys and seven moms and it worked out perfectly! Basically there are two bedroom bedrooms off of the game room where the boys lived and the moms had the other half of the house with the kitchen and the family room and our own bedroom bedrooms and bathrooms. Pool was warm, hot tub was hot, and near lots of great hiking and golf and disc golf. The boys played a lot of bags. Two fridges was key. Plenty of room for parking and 10 to 20 minutes from anything you need.

The Grotto was a perfect setting for our family reunion. Clean and comfortable, we enjoyed the indoor space as well as the several games and especially the shaded swimming pool and hot tub. The back of the house is desert landscaped with a beautiful view of the mountains. Norman was quickly responsive to a minor issue and the kitchen was well equipped including a nice espresso machine for my son the barista. In summary, a great venue for a family reunion. We would happily stay here again next year.

We had a great stay with our extended family at the Grotto. It was a nice home base for exploring Joshua Tree National Park and Palm Springs. Both the kids and adults especially loved the game room. The house also has a helpful, detailed guide explaining how everything works. Norman was very quick and responsive to our questions.

The host was very helpful with details. The hotbtub was amazing and came in handy with the cooler weather. The game room was fun. THE BEDS WERE SUPER WONDERFUL!!!

We loved it. From the 7 year old to the 82 year old, this is a great sport for a large extended family gathering.

This place is amazing and such a paradise! I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for beautiful, tranquil luxury! Our group had so much fun and I cannot recommend this home enough! We were so happy in the accommodations were so beautiful. Thank you to our most gracious host who took care of every little detail.

A beautiful restful oasis we enjoyed with the entire family. Kids absolutely lived in the pool and hot tub. This house had very comfortable beds and all the kitchen amenities that we needed to make our stay enjoyable. Host was very responsive to my messages and directions were very clear and concise. Thank you!

The house has everything you would need for a great vacation including a spacious property, stocked kitchen, game room entertainment, and comfortable beds. You are located outside of Palm Springs, but we had no issue with finding an Uber to take us into town. Make sure you bring a portable speaker if you want to listen to music by the pool. We didn’t have one and thought the house would. Also, keep an eye out for insects. There was a black widow (we killed it) and wasps near the pool. Other than that would definitely recommend staying here. The hosts were very responsive and the house truly elevated our trip!

Everything was fantastic. Great local getaway.

Wonderful stay. Hope to return sometime.

Norman was extremlely responsive, the house and amenities were among the best quality we've ever stayed at, kitchen, pool, game room, all amazing - getting ready to book again!

We had a great stay at the Grotto! There were 12 girlfriends on this trip, and we fit perfectly into the space. The property is beautiful, and the gate and door codes made it easy for everyone to get in and out. Food deliveries and Ubers can come out to the house as well!

Had a great time at the oasis. Loved the pool and game room. Spacious and well maintained. The host was very friendly and responsive to any questions during our stay. We would consider staying there again if we were to visit Palm Springs again.

The house and pool were amazing allowing all of us adults to have the much needed relaxation that had escaped us. The kids played in the pool, spa and game room the entire time. There was plenty of space we could all lounge to retreat from the heat when necessary. The waterfall and foliage all made it seem like we were in a tropical destination.

Fun house for a family trip. The front yard is a perfect spot to hang out all day long, with the pool, game room and space for games you can play on concrete. The pool is a little smaller than expected and the fact that the pool wasn't by all the backyard games made it a little difficult for the family to be all together.

The Grotto was beautiful and the accomodations were very comfortable for our group of 8. We enjoyed the birds and resort-like grounds and are very happy with our stay. Thank you for making your lovely home available and for providing great communication before and during our stay!!

Great place for friends to gather. All 12 of us were able to eat around the table together and gather comfortably in the living room. Beds are comfortable and house temperature easy to control. Owners very responsive via text.

It was very nice
