We had a great stay! Most of the property on the inside and in the backyard has been recently, completely, and gorgeously renovated. We LOVED the hot tub and spent so much time out there even though it was cool, bordering on cold when we were there in January. My son was playing in a lacrosse tournament at the Polo Grounds and it was so much closer (and more fun!) than the team hotel that was way over in Palm Desert. Also, it was my mom's 85th birthday and we celebrated her with an awesome tri-tip BBQ on the grill on Friday night. We also took her out to dinner on Saturday night at the Cliff House, a fancy place, conveniently close in La Quinta. I wish we had more time to do some shopping, which was also very close to this property. There are a couple of things to know - there are stairs! The master is on the main floor but the two additional bedrooms and bathroom are upstairs. So is the futon. Fair warning if you are traveling with an older person who is not adept at stairs. Also, although the property backs up to a busy street and we could hear the cars when we were outside, it really wasn't bothersome or disruptive at all. When you are sitting in the hot tub, everything else gets tuned out.

Everything seemed new in the house. The pool was beautiful. We had one minor issue and the owner promptly took care of it for us. This is what really counts in a rental.
