Mountain Shadow

Holiday Rental Description

In the La Quinta Cove neighbourhood, this Palm Springs home is surrounded by mountain trails, sprawling golf courses, and shops and restaurants. The San Jacinta Mountains loom as a rugged backdrop to the villa. A walled backyard offers a bit of privacy so you can swim laps in the pool or soak in the Jacuzzi in peace. Inside it feels boho chic with a hint of mid-century quirk. The living room is set around a fireplace and dotted with houseplants and curated trinkets. A second, less formal, seating area is set up by the big TV, perfect for a movie night. The kitchen has plenty of prep space, thanks to a granite island that doubles as a breakfast bar. If you don’t feel like cooking, it’s a five-minute drive to La Quinta Old Town where a healthy crop of restaurants, bakeries and cafés will see you through the day.

Home truths:
*There is a two-car garage and additional parking on the driveway
*The pool is not fenced in, so keep an eye on little ones at all times
*There are strict noise regulations in the neighbourhood
*A trailhead and golf courses are within walking distance, but shops and restaurants require a car
