Reviews

• 3/5

  Check in was easy, the large driveway and use of the garage was very nice. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking.

  Unfortunately, the property is in need of a good deep clean. Feet get dirty walking barefoot on the floors, overall it seemed like it had been empty long enough for dust to accumulate without a good wipedown to freshen it up and feel clean. Outside furniture and sitting area was uninviting. Biggest complaint was thermostat was locked up and set at 74 degrees, which meant heat came on and house couldnt be cooled by opening windows without heater running all night. No one was available to come turn it off. Homeowners were kind and responsive, but out of town.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Mark, we’re glad to hear that you had a quick check-in and enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen, driveway, and garage! We want our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we apologize you experienced some issues with the heat during your trip. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  
  - When you called about the heat we let you know that due to the power being turned off for a bit we needed to reset the system physically. We asked what temperature you would like it set at and planned on sending someone over but we never heard back from you. There would not have been an issue to have the windows open and you did mention to us that everything was ok and you had done that. We're sorry if there was a misunderstanding, we were happy to help get you situated.
  - We would have also sent the cleaners back if needed but you never mentioned the floors or dust to us. We take cleanliness very seriously and have not had this issue.
  
  We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.

• Low key, relaxing family retreat

  4/5

  This property worked out well for my husband and I looking for a place with character to get together with our grown children. Our questions were answered promptly before our trip so we could plan accordingly. Check in went smoothly and we quickly got used to the spaces. Of course we didn't bring cats but this was made for cat lovers with quirky cat walks throughout the house!! Nice back patio area. Some contents did not correspond with the kitchen cabinet labels but we managed. We made many memorable meals. Needed more hand Towels in the master bedroom bath area. I had my moment of peace waking up before dawn and watching the mesmerizing sunrise on the upstairs balcony. I noticed the stairs can be dangerous for older or very young person. We brought our own bikes and went biking past Yaqui Pass and around. One day we had an excursion to Badlands and Salton Sea where we'd visit whenever we're in Borrego since the 1990's. One thing I noticed was how filthy and unkempt the front door area was as if it had never been cleaned in years. Cobwebs on the door lights and below the sitting area, Lint and dirt on and around the doormat. It would make a better impression if the cleaning crew paid attention. All in all, we had a nice time as a family and enjoyed our stay.

• Amazing house and surroundings

  5/5

  We greatly enjoyed this beautiful, large and confortable house, its garden, the incredible views and Borrego Springs as well. We loved hiking in the area, rest on the terraces and being part of this special place. It'll remain very special in my heart and I really want to come back soon. Owners were also very helpful and nice, best souvenir from French family ❤️

• Comfortable & Happy Getaway with The Family

  5/5

  Overall, this was a very nice getaway for us. The house is clean and comfortable, good location. The desert setting is what we wanted and we got it. We visited the baths at Agua Caliente as a day trip.

  The property owner was very accommodating and responsive. Thank you.
