A Lovely Quiet Stay
This is our second girls trip to the round house and we simply love it here. There is lots of space, so you can either nap in your room while watching the critters outside or you can do puzzles in the main room gazing through the panoramic window. Super relaxing. (Also if you have time, hit a hot springs spa and the Cabot Pueblo Museum.)

Amazing & Unique desert house
What a special place! We loved the architecture, collectibles, cactus garden, and peacefulness. We made a big Thanksgiving feast here, and it was a perfect setting and the (round) kitchen, though cosy, had everything necessary included great oven and induction cooktop. Then we enjoyed a few quieter days and it was an equally wonderful place to unwind. The views of the sunrises, sunsets, and lively garden are amazing. A few practical notes: The sleeping areas include 2 private bedrooms, a huge "camping" room with several beds and more mattresses, and another listed bedroom with 2 twins that is actually the passageway into the bunk room. There is no dishwasher. One suggestion - add a fire pit on the beautiful front terrace! Thanks much for sharing your amazing home!

Hot Pools and Hikes
We enjoyed Miracle Hot Springs pools and hiked in nearby Morongo Valley. Great views from the living room with plenty of local fauna to entertain us for breakfast. Everyone in our family found a comfortable place to sleep.

Fantastic location
We did not use all the rooms since it was only 3 of us( it can accommodate many guests) . We had a couple of days with one of our daughters to explore the area. The beautiful unique home is very well equiped wiith everything you need. The location is very convenient since it’s close to Palm Prings as well as Joshua Tree National Park. We highly recommend this home.

Fun and relaxing!
This house has it all! Equipped with everything you’ll ever need, great views, and an all around Fun house! A great bonus part of the experience was just exploring the inside of the house. Many quirky features due to the design, but that made it all the more enjoyable. Jane is an excellent host and very communicative. She lets you enjoy your visit, but is available if you have any questions. Instructions were very clear. Neighborhood was very quiet and no one bothered us.

This was a delight in many ways! The 50’s architecture, the landscaping and nature right out the front, and even some new technology (induction stove) to try out

Desert hide-away and architectural throwback
The Glass House is built around a circular kitchen, which was well stocked and legibly labelled. The panoramic views from the open living area featured desert specimens and local wildlife. The house was comfortable enough for a few days stay. The temperatures the week of our visit peaked at 117 F, so we were glad the air conditioning kept the house comfortable without issue.

The round house in Desert Hot Springs
We had a small family gathering here after attending our son’s recent wedding in Palm Springs. This home and property was perfect for us and well located between Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park. We felt like we were staying in a friend’s home and loved the design, tidyness and views. There are too many details to describe, but we agree with all the other positive reviews. It is a well built home with a very strong 60s vibe. The kitchen is well equipped and all drawers and cupboards were labelled. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.
