My husband and I stayed in Kay's studio for 4 nights in January. It was convenient to town and to the orienteering events we attended near the Slot canyon in the park. The studio was clean and had everything we needed and Kay was the perfect host. Her two dogs were friendly and fun.

Casita was just what we wanted and needed to get away from hectic interrupted lives. Very calm, peaceful location and property.
Casita is week stocked and clean. Would stay there again in a flash!!

A project in the Anza-Borrego desert meant I had to find a place of rest where I could cook and not worry about security. After the flower tourists left I found this place and couldn’t be happier with it.

My partner and I had a wonderful time at Kay's casita! It's the perfect size for two people with a great kitchen and many cooking supplies so you don't need to eat out. The bed was so, so comfortable. The bathroom was great and had a beautifully tiled shower. We really enjoyed having dinner on the patio with all of the lights off and enjoying the dark sky. It was a wonderful break from everyday life. Kay's dogs were very welcoming and we fed the horse and donkey many carrots. This might be my favorite rental experience ever. We will definitely be back!

Cute Little Casita
A perfect little place just far enough out of town to be absolutely quiet. but close enough to Borrego Springs to really enjoy it. Great spot from which to explore the desert. Extremely clean and well maintained. Tiny deduction due to the recent removal of the mature trees mentioned in the description. But new ones in the ground and should be even better.

Broken Brain in Busted Borrego Springs Bungalow
If I were to relate this rental experience to a film, I feel my journey would best corolate to the 2015 film THE VISIT, for the visit to Kay’s “ranch” made me run home and hug my mom for days after I kissed the ground of my entire apartment.
What appears as a relaxing and welcoming invitation soon takes a turn for the dangerous and the hostess is quick to exhibit unprofessional and uncomfortable behavior. Overall, Kay was a great exhibit of what happens when one does not take their medication or mental health seriously, for her texts and conversations soon turned violent, dismissive, and demanding. She became far too comfortable around us, and was improper with my male guest.
We decided to leave early after Kay informed us on a Saturday evening during a heatwave, as we were arriving with groceries ready to cook dinner, that power was completely gone. We also had no air conditioning, water, internet, or phone service. She had no generator or back up electricity. Kay only offered me an ice pack and four water bottles for 2 adults and 2 dogs.
I am disabled and my health took a turn for the worst due to the lack of safe and proper accomodations. I became sick and had to resort to using towels and sheets to clean my mess since Kay did not provide us with soap or water. Kay was insidious and accused me of playing the “disability card.” Kay even texted me that her job was more important than my health and continued to turn the water and power on and off after I called VRBO and asked about leaving early.
At the end we left running and screaming like the survivors at the end of a horror movie. We left traumatized but thankful to be alive, and vowing never to return.

I wanted a relaxing weekend with my dogs and the little casita on a small horse ranch in the desert was perfect. The cabin was very dog friendly and there was even a well-built dog run for the dogs to stretch their legs. We went in the hot part of the year, but the air conditioning was good and the morning sunrise on the large patio was beautiful.

Great casita
This cute little casita was just perfect, set about three miles from “downtown” Borrego and just a few miles from the state park. The casita was clean and cozy and we really enjoyed the patio for morning coffee. Kay, the owner, was very attentive to our needs and even let us play with her dogs and pet her horses and donkey. Just a great place for our trip to the desert!!! Highly recommend!!

We had a great time. The main bed needs replacing. I think it is one of those memory foam beds, but needs replaced. The pull out sofa was comfortable. We enjoyed everything else.

Relaxing
We just stayed here for 3 nights. It was very relaxing. A great get away. We felt safe and comfortable. Manager is on site if you need anything. Very friendly place. We had our little dog with us who found the two horses and donkey very interesting. We were very close to restaurants and grocery stores. Thank you Kay, we had a very nice time.

Beautiful Borrego Getaway
The Casita was the perfect place for our family of 3. Kay was incredibly gracious and the casita has everything we needed. It was fun to discover the two mustang horses and donkey on the property. The best part about Borrego this time of year-the beautiful star display at night!

Borrego Springs getaway
What a find! Our short getaway for some peace and quiet could not have been spent at a better location. Kay, the property Manager, was excellent in every way, made us feel very much at home. A very relaxing environment for the wife, myself and our pets. Will certainly try to return in the future.

Cozy oasis in the desert
What a find! Comfortable and convenient, this darling casita was all we had hoped for. Quiet and serene except for the occasional braying of the friendly donkey. Shaded patio, dog run, and very comfortable bed. 10 minutes from town. Very lovely host. We will be back!

The Perfect Stay for us
This charming casita was exactly what we needed to unwind and de-stress. Kay was the perfect hostess - responsive and welcoming, and the casita was immaculate. Well appointed with fluffy towels, soft bedding, and beautiful Mexican tile throughout. Sunrise through the window next to the bed . . . gorgeous sunsets over the mountains . . . comfy chairs on the porch for morning coffee . . . all around a perfect stay.
