About this property

Magical Garden Retreat with Pool, Hot Tub & Mountain Views✨

Located in the Indian Palms Country Club, this is a fabulous house for the Coachella and Stage Coach music festivals, Joshua Tree National Park, and the Thermal HITS horse show (as well as for the PGA West golf tournament and Indian Wells Tennis Garden).
The property lends itself to indoor/outdoor living at its best! The back yard offers a surprisingly secluded retreat with views of mountains looming in the not-too-far distance. Enclosed by living walls of tall green vegetation, the garden is planted with aloes, milkweeds (to attract butterflies), roses and other increasingly native plantings. The pool is delightfully refreshing on hot days, and hot tub -- well -- it is almost always a delicious spot to be at. Bougainvillea covers the patio and grill area, where there is an outdoor dining table and chairs, and 4 reclining lounge chairs.
The three bedroom house is gently growing from its 1970's heritage into its more modern, nomadic 2020's self (with some of its 1970's features still in tact ;) The house has an open living/dining area with an adjoining kitchen, a master bedroom with king bed (or two twins), a second bedroom with a California king, and a third bedroom with a queen bed. The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and the two other bedrooms share a bathroom. Two of the bedrooms have sliding doors leading to the back/side yards.
Whether waking up to the chorus of birds in trees, roadrunners dashing across the lawn, bright sun and skies or going sleep to chirping crickets and stars blazing overhead, this is a sweet little spot to be at.

A few things to note:
- The house is located in the gated community of Indian Palms, for which you will receive guest passes.
- Our neighborhood is very peaceful; loud partying is not tolerated.
- A dog may be permitted with pre-approval. Please send us information if you are looking to bring your dog.
- Check-in & out is flexible when the cleaning schedule allows.
- The pool can be heated for an additional daily fee.
- The 14% Occupancy Tax is WAIVED for stays of 30 days and more.
- Monthly rates may not be quoted correctly. Please ask if you are interested.

Wonderful home, relaxing atmosphere
My spouse and I needed to get away from the fog on the coast and get nice and hot while relaxing. This place did the trick plus some! Brooks is an awesome and communicative host, you know exactly what you’re getting and you’ll be happy renting this spot for a relaxing getaway! I wish there were more bars and restaurants near the place since we like to be out among people, but if you’re looking to cook- a wonderful kitchen waits for you here too.

Great house and sunny pool!
We thoroughly enjoyed this home, the floorplan is outstanding with a large living room and the master bedroom opens out to the hot tub and pool. With southern exposure on the back of the home the pool get excellent sunlight all day and the owners will heat the pool daily for a nominal fee. Barbecue grill works great also. We will be back

Great place
Even better than pictures. Wonderful pool. Comfy beds. Kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans. It was only a short drive to get on I 10. Off street parking. Also easy to find. Would stay at again.

Much needed break
My spouse and 10 yr old dog enjoyed (5) nights decompressing from our stressful lives. The property had everything we needed. The owner is extremely responsive and accommodating. Definitely on our list of places to stay at again.

Great stay for Coachella
We stayed here for Coachella weekend and had a great experience - it's a perfect location to be able to walk into and out of the festival and avoid crazy traffic, and the property itself was lovely.

About the host

Hosted by Brooks C.

Host profile image
This is a family house that my sister and I inherited from our mother, who was a wonderful and lively horsewoman and enlightenment-seeker. We are travelers who love to explore, meet people, and learn new ways. I live in Cambridge, MA, with family and animals -- my sister in San Francisco. (Photo circa 2006)

Why they chose this property

Our mother bought this house in 1996 so she could bring her horses to the HITS horse show each winter. She, and we, love the ease and comfort of the house and its location. We also love the friendly, more low-key nature of Indian Palms -- it's a gated community without attitude.

What makes this property unique

We love the backyard! Lounging under the bougainvillea-covered trellis, soaking in the hot tub, cooling off in the pool, watching butterflies and birds drift between plants... all with views of the Santa Rosa mountains looming in the distance. It's magical!
