Perfection

My husband and two young children had a wonderful time! The house was the cleanest place we have ever stayed. The pool and backyard are amazing. It’s very close to downtown Palm Springs. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic Week in the Desert

We had an amazing time at this home! The interior is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. However, we spent most of our time in the back yard floating around in the pool and lounging. The views of the mountain from the pool are simply stunning. In addition, the neighborhood is very quiet and convenient to downtown. We will definitely be back!

Cleanest vrbo we've ever stayed in.

We were really impressed with Colin's home. It was super clean and well-designed for our family of 4. The hot tub heater worked very well and quickly and we were out in the pool multiple times a day. It's in a great location, close to downtown and all the places we wanted to visit. If you were motivated, it's a pretty easy walk over to Palm Canyon Drive. We would definitely stay here again.

Fab house in great location

House was perfect for us. Great layout, kitchen very well equipped with everything our family needed. Nicely furnished with mid-century pieces. Beds were amazing. Outside area was a perfect size with great sun coverage and plenty of space to catch rays. Easy walk through Movie Colony into downtown Palm Springs but far enough away to o be very serene. Excellent. Will definitely be back.

Great Location with Awesome Mountain Views

A very nice professionally landscaped home with a good pool and hot tub facing the mountains. We spent numerous nights watching the sunsets and local hummingbirds from either in the hot tub or pool - extremely calm and relaxing. At night, many of the local residences also have professional uplighting accenting the many types of palm trees creating a surreal work of art in the quiet neighborhood.The home is centrally located and convenient to shopping / restaurants, and some local nice golf courses so really the best of both worlds.The owner was a pleasure to work with. We would definitely rent this property again.

Mid-Century charm

Rockette Ranch has been lovingly retored to its Mid-Century Modern origin with every modern upgrade seamlessly included. It is a comfortable, welcoming house in a very convenient area of town--a few minutes drive from anywhere in Palm Springs. The owner is very accommodating and helpful without being intrusive dureing your stay. The price is quite reasonable considering there is no surcharge fo heating the pool and spa. I've rented several properties in PS over the years but would return to Rockette Ranch in a heartbeat based on the pool heating bargain alone. You cannot go wrong at this little gem of a house.

Love the area

We love the neighborhood - so close to the big walking Ruth park. It’s great that there are two different grocery stores and many restaurants nearby. The area is quiet and the backyard with the pool and grassy area along with the vegetation that attracts hummingbirds was so nice. We are talking about coming back again next year.😀

Already planning to return

9.5 out of 10. As a group of older women, the hot tub and swimming pool had no rails and the steps into the hot tub were so high that it was extremely hard to get in and out, especially if one has arthritis. Keep this in mind depending on your groups needs as this probably applies to children as well. That said almost every rental in Palm Springs doesn’t have handrails at their pools!The kitchen had nice appliances and all the utensils and pots and pans we needed, the grill worked well. The decor was really lovely. Colin was very easy to contact. The location is ideal. In short we are coming back next year!

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is in great condition, clean and up to date. The location is convenient to restaurants and other places we wanted to visit but just far enough away to be quiet. The pool area is sunny all day and a porch provides a place in the shade. We highly recommend this property.

Palm Springs Heaven

We absolutely loved our stay at the Rockette Ranch in Palm Springs. The house was exceptionally clean and located in a quiet neighbourhood, close to everything Palm Springs has to offer. The weather didn't really co-operate but the pool, hot tub and house certainly helped make our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. We will definitely be back 😊
