Borrego Springs Stay

My husband and I recently spent 3 nights at this property in Borrego Springs. The location is amazing. We were able to walk out the backyard into the desert. Minus one star due to the cleanliness in the kitchen, however Ruth did offer to send a cleaner out. Overall we would love to return to this property.

Heaven in the desert

Beautiful home, quiet and nicely appointed. The great thing about this property is it's location, with the back yard vistas of nothing but desert, sunrises and sunsets. It's a short drive into town (Christmas Circle) and we rode our e-bikes around the neighborhood.

Great house for a hiking vacation with friends

We came with a group of 5 friends and family to enjoy day hiking in Anza Borrego, and the house was perfect for that. The location is great, the house is spacious, and the kitchen and BBQ were very useful.

Nice spot in a great area

This is a good house for a couple, two couples, or a small family. For longer staying visitors, you need to be aware that there is no washer or dryer but there are two laundromats 3 miles away in Borrego Springs downtown.

Quiet retreat

The property is as advertised, situated in a small cluster of homes at the edge of the desert. The roadrunners, mourning doves and jack rabbits shared the back yard with our dog. Relaxing, comfortable and just a perfect winter retreat.

Great Desert Getaway

The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The telescope was outstanding! When we arrived, I contacted the property manager with a question, and she got back to me right away and was very helpful. It’s a great location to explore the State Park and enjoy the stars at night.

Very comfortable base for exploring Anza-Borrego

This is a very nice, comfortable house a few miles south of Christmas Circle. Three bedrooms sleep up to five, and there are two bathrooms. The kitchen is completely equipped, (though we took ourselves repeatedly to Red Ocotillo and Epicurious for meals, both excellent). The weather didn't permit a lot of stargazing, as described in the listing, but the glimpse we had was stunning, beautiful open desert skies. We expect to return here in the near future.

Quiet desert retreat

House was very clean. Quietest place we’ve ever stayed and we love quiet. Our bed was very comfortable too. Right next to a large natural area so lots of birds and cacti - even a Roadrunner in the back yard! (We love birds). Heater worked well and quietly. Due to high winds the trash containers had blown over prior to our arrival and it took a few days to pick up the trash but not a problem for us.

Borrego Stay

House worked out great for us. Easy, and close to Christmas circle. Kitchen had all the amenities. Wi-fi was great, which is not always the case in Borrego :-) . House was easy to get into with key pad entry. Came in late night, street/house was very dark, hard to find house number but figured it out. Thank you!

Needs maintenance generally and poor host

We had high hopes for this stay given the past reviews and description. The home is fine but there were lots of parts that were faulty (e.g. taps that didn’t work, lights that didn’t come one etc.). On day three of five there was some rain and the property leaked in the master bedroom so badly that we had to pile towels by the window and move out of the master bedroom for two of the five nights. We contacted the guest contact immediately but had no reply for 24 hours. We also contacted evolve vacation rentals to let them know of the issue and ask for compensation for the disruption to our vacation and received no reply. We offered to wait to leave a review until they had spoken to us so they cannot reply to say otherwise. So our recommendation would be to avoid booking this property since Evolve clearly are not responsive or customer-friendly hosts.

Nice home

Our stay was too short for all there is to see and do in Borrego Springs. The house is well laid out, with a master bed and bath on one side of the living room and the kitchen, second bedrooms and bathroom on the other. There is also a comfortable couch and sofa if you want to stretch out somewhere else. The only advice I have is to print out the confirming email as when we arrived, I tried to look up the key code for the front door and found I didn't have cell service. It was also dark as the owners respect the Dark Sky Certification of Borrego and turn off outside lighting unless necessary. Problem was easily solved but caused a moment of consternation.
