Charming mid century modern apartment

This apartment is comfortably set up with all the amenities needed for a short or long stay. The location was perfect for going either to Joshua Tree or Mt San Jacinto or Palm Springs. I loved the mid century modern decor, probably because it triggered nostalgia for my youthful days. Pool was nice for cooling off.

Clean, but weird location

The property was mid century modern and relatively true to the pictures. However, there were some things that seemed out of place - there were creepy children pictures over the sofa, and it felt like a revamped motel. It was also in the middle of no where. The property manager was easy to contact.

Great place to stay

We had a comfortable time. The apartment was a good space. Because we cooked, everything was there to do that.The location of the Getaway was great to travel to Joshua Tree National Park and then Palm Springs. Little problem with the plumbing, but that was getting fixed.

Easy Getaway

Eric was a great communicator beginning to end. He was available by text for anything from traffic predictions to spa recommendations. I left my glasses by the pool as we left which could have been disastrous - but because of swift phone calls between Eric the caretaker and Eric the manager, I was informed and able to to turn around on the freeway and drive back for them in time! The place was comfortable and a great base for three days of desert hiking in all directions. Hopefully, we will return some day!

We are already planning to return to the Getaway.

We loved Eric's place! It was clean, well maintained and has fantastic mountain views from both the condo and pool area. The retro look and feel of the unit was so well appointed and much appreciated. Close driving distance to Palm Springs. Joshua Tree and Pioneertown and only a few blocks from Cabots Adobe Museum. Resting by the pool and hot tub after a full day of touring was an added bonus. Wishing we would have stayed longer!

A relaxing condo

We stayed at this condo for three weeks in March/18 and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. When we arrived we were pleased to find a quiet, secluded area behind the gate where the pool and hot tub are. We chose not to heat the hot tub but others that did enjoyed it. We would imagine the pool will be perfect for the hot weather. Eric has tastefully decorated the condo we had in a definite 60’s theme. It was funky and different and the sheets were the whitest we have ever had in any rental. With regard to another review a microwave would be very useful. This condo is near to both Palm Springs and Palm Desert and not a long distance from Salton Sea, Idyllwild and Salvation Mountain-all worth exploring. Some great spots for birding near by and Indian Canyon is a must see.The Thursday night street market in Palm Springs and the Saturday Market in Palm Desert are fun and have so many different vendors to check out. We would not hesitate to stay here again . Thanks Eric and Eric, it was a pleasure meeting both of you. Jim and Jocelyn Russell

Nice place and well executed

We were there the week of 3/27/17. Everything about this place is nicely done/implemented and exceeds what you would expect. So it's a 1 bedroom apt with its mid century bones preserved and appropriately appointed. The place is super clean. We cooked a lot. The kitchen is well appointed with pots and pans that you would have in your own home. My only gripe was not having a pot big enough for a big ole batch of spaghetti. The bed is firm and comfortable. I brought my own amazon fire tv stick. But guess what? He already had Roku with Netflix and Amazon so I didn't need it. We did not pay to heat the hot tub. But after hiking and walking all day the cool waters soaking our legs while enjoying a drink was great. The place is 11 mi from downtown Palm Springs. It worked great for us as we covered a lot of area there and Joshua National Park. It's a quick trip in to Palm Springs. Eric has great taste and a commitment to providing an appreciated experience. You need to go there. Greg

Good value for the money

My wife and I spent 3 weeks at this property and enjoyed our stay. The area is reasonably quiet. No traffic. Close to just about anything. (Especially when everyone drives 80 mph) The apartment was clean and well organized. Most of whatever we needed was available. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was nice and clean. The view at night into the valley below was very pretty. There were a few things that were disappointing. No microwave. If you have leftovers from eating out, which we did, reheating was kind of a pain. There actually is no counter space available for a microwave but maybe a small table on rollers would work? (Eric) Also, the couch looks cool but, I'm sorry, it just wasn't very comfortable. It was hard to sit on for very long, especially if you have a bad back, which I do. The pools aren't heated unless you spend extra money. So we didn't use them at all. Water was way too cold. But there are many spas around that allow use of their hot mineral pools for a minimal fee. The one we went to had 8 pools of varying size and temperature and they even had live music. The most we paid was $5 p.p. So, all in all, this is a very nice property. Not high end but neither is the cost.
