Avis Upscale, Dog-Friendly Home with Private Pool, Spa, & Gas Grill

The house itself is beautiful, well designed, and better than the pictures. The house and location were perfect for us. The layout was ideal for our family of all adults. 3 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms plus a half bath in the living room. The main downside of this house is the management company - Vacasa. I would not rent a house managed by them again. Other reviews mention privacy as an issue - the house right behind can see the entire back yard. The ground level is higher on their side, so the fence doesnt really make a difference since they are standing 3 feet highter on their side. This didnt bother us, but I can see how it would bother some if they were trying to have a relaxing/private weekend. When we arrived it was pretty warm out and the thermostat was locked. I'm not sure if this is how it always is - but we needed to get ready for a wedding so it was unfortunate to not be able to control the AC. Overall I think this house is great! They just need a new property management company.

This was a great house! Beautiful inside and well stocked. The backyard was great as well. Owners have done a great job of decorating, stocking and maintaining this property. We would come back again.

Fantastic, just the way it looks.

We had a wonder time and will come back. This is our 2nd stay at this property and every time it’s perfect.

This house was perfect for what we wanted. A short 6day stay with pool and hot tub. The outdoor fireplace was nice and the teen aged kids liked having their own washrooms. Highly recommended.

Looked as good in person as it did in the pictures and satisfied our need for pool time in the desert sun.

Overall, great but the oven didn’t work and one of the umbrellas was busted. Also, the tv’s we’re not great!!!

This is a gorgeous high end house. We loved staying here for the most part. There are a few fixes that need to be done: the interior doors need to be oiled, the exterior lights need to be fixed and the water tasted disgusting and was murky coming out of the sinks. But the worst part was the construction happening right outside the house on the street. They were working on the street itself with thumpers and the house literally shook and it was very loud. We discovered this when we arrived and again the following morning when it started back up again at 6am waking us up. No one had given us a heads up about this so we were extremely upset as we were planning on staying in the house and pool and relaxing. (And on a sidenote, property management made a really big deal about noise in the backyard. They wouldn’t even let us play music on our cell phone. They kept citing Palm Springs code to us stating that there would be $2000 fine and that we could be evicted from our rental if any neighbor reported music coming from the backyard. We were really shocked at how loud the construction was because any music that we could have potentially played wouldn’t even come close to the loud construction happening just across the street.) I tried contacting the management company multiple times, every time they said they couldn’t help me and that one specific person would call me back and he never did. I finally heard from him the day after we left (how convenient of them). Something to note, this property is managed by Vacation Palm Springs, who is owned by a different company so when I called in they had a hard time finding my reservation. This was a very frustrating experience. If the property management experience and the construction noise was different then we would totally come back again as we loved the house and pool itself! The management company did reimburse us some of the fees for the inconvenience, however they were quite insistent in reminding us that written in the rental agreement theyare not responsible for any nearby construction. More so to the point, I’m sure they knew because they have professional people that clean the house and I don’t understand why the cleaners wouldn’t report this to management. Or the actual owner of the house I’m sure was aware of it because permits had to be pulled for all of the construction happening to rip up the street. So why didn’t the owner of the house actually say anything?!? Very disappointed by management.

Two couples, two different generations, one dog, and lots of space for all of us. Loved the open kitchen, the misting devices around the pool, and the general layout. Lovely property!

Had a great 4 days relaxing around and in the pool. Just what we needed. Everything was as listed on the site. Would stay here again.
