Dates are flexible. The season of beauty in the Palm Springs area is January - May. We are open to renting our home to Intervac members during this time. Though we would not necessarily require an exchange, we will also consider an exchange as well. |

Palm Springs, CA, USA
We live about 10 minutes from downtown Palm Springs in the Mohave desert of southern California. Rancho Mirage is a community close to and just east of Palm Springs. From October through May the desert is a warm 65-85 F and inviting for golf, swimming, sun bathing, bicycling, hiking, etc.
In the summer months temperatures can reach 115. Our home has solar panels to keep you cool and comfortable. The house has expansive views of the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains. A heated swimming pool and spa are available; the pool temperature is maintained at a comfortable 88 F degrees year round. Rancho Mirage is a balanced combination of proximity to Palm Springs, Joshua Tree National Park, and a relaxing desert refuge. The house is centrally located to visit the greater Los Angeles area (2 hours), San Diego (2 hours), and Las Vegas (5 hours by car). We are 10 minutes from the Palm Springs International Airport.
Generally, we can be flexible about travel dates.

CH52638We will probably never live in such a beautiful house again. The furniture, the interplay of colors, the garden-simply gorgeous. This house exudes culture, taste and intellect, like a foil on which the personalities of Sandra and Thomas can be felt in outline. It was an all-round great experience that we wouldn't want to miss, not the immersion in desert modernism, the silence of the desert, the unique light and so much more.
