Family Labor Day 2024 Weekend Getaway

Overall excellent getaway! The home was magnificent and much more than we expected. The house was beautifully decorated and we were all comfortable from the moment we walked through the door. The pool along with the outside TV and water misters added to our enjoyment. We will definitely return back to make more memorable family memories!

Excellent house

Excellent property in the PGA West development. Extremely clean had all amenities to make it feel like home. Easy walk to the community pool. Excellent pathways for riding your bikes with minimal car traffic. Close to golf courses and La Quinta village.
