Neighborhood

Located in the rocky northwest corner of Palm Springs, just south of Chino Canyon on the edge of the Little Tuscany neighborhood, sit half a dozen or so architecturally significant private homes, including the Kaufman Desert House, built between the mid 1940s and the late 1960s. Although some of the houses are not as visible from the street as most modernists would prefer, there’s still enough to see and appreciate in this area. Only 5 minutes from down town Palm Springs.

This was the perfect peaceful place to crash after a weekend of wedding festivities and exploring Joshua Tree! The hosts were responsive and flexible and the house was beautifully decorated and clean. The pool wasn’t too bad either! 😉 Highly recommended!

I would have to say this is the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at. We had an absolute blast with our dogs this weekend at the Great Escape. The property was incredibly chill and peaceful, providing exactly the relaxing retreat we needed. The amenities were top-notch, and the surrounding nature made it a perfect getaway. We will definitely be back for future visits! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a serene and enjoyable stay.
