Good but problems with internet, random alarms, water, A/C, and kitchen issues
The pictures are accurate- it is a very lovely place and we enjoyed it. However, there were some issues that really undermined our stay. 1) one of the bedrooms (adjoining master) is really hot unless you leave the door to the master bedroom open. That is a privacy and comfort problem. 2) the internet is very slow- forget about trying to have a productive video meeting 3) the gate alarm kept going off randomly, one night it was probably double digits and woke people up. Seems like an ongoing problem and the property manager isn't reachable at night 4) the water cut off for a couple of hours and we had to harass the property manager to come and he seemed annoyed about it 5) had a problem with the kitchen stove sparking and one of the door handles was pretty loose. I get the impression that none of these issues started with us but the property manager has band aided them rather than fix them, such as how the alarms needed repair twice and how they have long been aware of how one of the bedrooms doesn't cool unless the master is open. So 4 stars to the property (beautiful but some maintenance issues) and like 2 for the property manager.

Another Great Family Vacation
This is our second time staying at Desert Ridge Estates. The first time was 8 years ago and was full of wonderful memories: a family vacation, a small family reception after our marriage, and time spent with cousins, nieces/nephews, brothers/sisters and parents/grandparents. We have been talking about returning to Desert Ridge for many years, and we finally made it! This time we also made many memories that will last a lifetime: our wedding anniversary, the second birthday of our son, the joy of watching 3 young children born since our last visit, and welcoming newer members into the family! This location has everything you need - a lake, pool, movie room, game room for kids and not-so-kids, and plenty of space for quite time and naps. It is truly an oasis in the desert. The owners, Shayna and Marie, are great hosts. They do everything they can to ensure you have a good time. And the on-site caretaker, Lenny, will do anything he can to make your stay wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed this truly unique and special place! You won’t be disappointed!

This property in even better in person than online!
My best friends and I recently stayed here for a girls trip and the property is just beautiful. Some of the pictures don't even do it justice as the theater is bigger than it looks, and the bunk room has some beautiful new bunk beds. The pool and lake are perfect and the beds are incredibly comfortable. Our only hiccups were that the ice machine wasn't working and that we weren't aware that the caretaker lived on the grounds, and he would randomly show up unannounced both outside and inside the house. Also the cleaners were still there when we arrived, but we just waited in the yard and had a drink. We had the best time ever in the game room, in the lake, and in the pool. We had a butler to handle the ice issue so it wasn't too bad, and very much enjoyed our time at this gorgeous property. I would very much recommend this for anything from weddings to a trip with the family as it has everything anyone could want!

Covid GET AWAY
We had a great time! Manager Marie is great with communicating fast. When we pulled up the property is BEAUTIFUL!! Lake is clean and grounds are well kept. So many activities we didn't leave once. House is so large, perfect for a large family/group we never felt on top of eachother. They provide mostly everything you need. THE VIEW IS EVERYTHING makes for great family pictures. My rating.... I give it a 7/10 only because house keeping was there for quite awhile after check in. Refrigerator was not working, would not get cold. I was worried about my breast milk! :/ Internet didn't work when we 1st got there, but was fixed the next morning. But all in all my family and I had a great stay we do recommend giving this place a go! Thx Marie!

Awesome Lake House in Palm Springs area!
Every moment of our trip was enjoyable and didn't want to leave. The house is perfect for a few families with kids. We brought our own Stand UP paddle boards and the kids loved being on the Lake! We were able to fish anytime and the lights around the lake made it even more enjoyable at night times. The pool was huge as well and loved that it was such a great addition to the lake. The fire-pits around was also relaxing..and the game room and weight room was a bonus. The only thing that could have been better was if the house in front of the property didn't have their music blasting 24 hours of EDM music starting Friday through Sunday morning. Other than that, our weekend at the Desert Ridge Estate was perfect! Definitely a rebook property! Almost better than going to Hawaii!

About the host

Hosted by Desert Ridge Estate

Host profile image
We wanted to make this home the number one place to visit in the desert. While vacationing here prior to becoming the new owners we looked for ways to improve on what was already beyond amazing. A vacation is important and we want everyone who comes here to have the best experience possible. Family and friends are valuable and spending quality time with them is the most important thing for us.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in the desert area. I missed the peaceful nights where you can actual see the stars. The mountain views are breathtaking and the privacy of this Estate is ideal for our private get aways with friends and family. The activities are endless and we rarely leave once we're there.

If we do decide to leave ,we’re just minutes away from several world class golf resorts, the famous Indian Wells Tennis Garden, the Empire Polo Club and the heart of Palm Desert which offers incredible shopping, top notch entertainment, and unbelievable international dining experiences.
