This was our second time in this home and it did not disappoint. The house really is "Bright and Cheerful" and outfitted with everything one could need, from comfy beds to folding chairs to take to Sunday concerts in the nearby Civic Park. A 5 minute walk to El Paseo, 5+ minute drive to the wonderful Randall Henderson Trail, easy access to major roads in the region. The neighbourhood feels safe and is very quiet at night. Cecelia is terrific to deal with and is always available quickly by text or email to answer questions. She loves this house, her desert second home and it shows in the decor and care. Highly recommend.

Even better than expected.
The owner was very accommodating when we initially had to postpone our trip due to Covid travel restrictions and she was always quick to respond to questions. The property exceeded our expectations, the photos do not fully capture the lovely home Cecelia and her husband created. Unlike listings that are only used as rentals, this is her vacation home as well so things don’t feel “cheap”. The kitchen is fully stocked, the linens and towels are a good quality, the mattress was brand new and comfortable. It feels like a home without the clutter! If you prefer not to be “behind a gate” the location is ideal. A ten minute walk to both El Paseo and the beautiful Civic Park, and easy access to the major roads of the valley. The house sits on a main road through the neighbourhood but is not busy and at night we slept with the windows open as it was always quiet. Can recommend without hesitation.

Palm Deserts Best Kept Secret
Pictures don’t do it justice. Loved my month stay at Cecilia’s sweet desert oasis. The nice remodel makes the home comfortable, it was clean and convenient and the Mountain view out the front window is breathtaking!!! Waking up and sipping my morning coffee on the front patio was everything. Also loved the five minute walk to El Paseo shops and Starbucks. I loved the sweet neighborhood so much I’ve been looking for homes to purchase there. Hoping the right one pops up because this is the place to be! Thank you Cecilia for the amazing stay. Can’t wait to come visit again soon!
