Rancho Santa Rosa Casita Spa Sauna & Art Gallery High Desert Mountain Retreat


We are located in the high desert above Palm Springs with 15 degree cooler weather at a 4000 ft elevation. The back area stays at around 70 degrees in the winter. Enjoy the full sun in all seasons. Our property is a half acre and is fenced in on both sides for privacy, bordering the Bureau of Land Management National Forest. The back area of the property is private, exclusive and has a well maintained freshwater jacuzzi and high powered rock steam sauna that includes eucalyptus aromatherapy. Located on the property is also a fun little art gallery that features paintings, glass, wood sculpture and jewelry. by local artisans.

Access is just one block off the highway 74 between San Diego and Palm Springs on a paved road. Each guest is given a private tour of the property upon arrival. . We reside on the property and are available 24/7 for whatever our guests may need. We also offer served refreshments. Enjoy views of the 8000 ft Santa Rosa Mountain that we are at the base of.

We are new to this platform however we have had our property listed for about 7 years on other platforms. We have hosted over 1000 guests with almost all 5 star reviews. Our calendar is linked with those platforms to avoid double bookings.
