Lost Oasis - Walk to Palm Canyon Drive! Read The Reviews!

Our stay was fantastic. The AC kept us cool during the heat wave and we felt right at home here. Our only comment is we wished the landscape lighting was working.

This property was the absolute perfect getaway for my spouse and I - would be perfect for 2 couples. It's a wonderfully laid out house with common area in middle, beds/bath flanking either side. The moment you walk in the door, your eye is taken directly to the backyard through the spans of floor to ceiling, wall to wall glass. Private, hedge lined backyard and sparkling pool are ready for you to come and enjoy. The pool layout is perfection - tanning shelf on one end with raised hot tub on the either. The hot tub spills over to pool creating the most wonderful sounds (this is a total win in Palm Springs as there is a noise ordinance which prohibits ANY and ALL amplified sound - so no speakers, music, etc. Not all houses have this type of fountain benefit). The fountain provides the perfect ambient sounds for back yard relaxing in absence of being able to play music. In addition, there is a very large extended covered patio - perfect respite for the non sun lovers or for lounging and chatting. Aside from dinners out, the house was our destination and we made the most of every single moment there. It's very well located on the south end of town (not windy like the north end of town, which is location benefit). Check-in/out was a breeze and contactless. The property management company was easy and quick with communication. Check out protocols were simple. Would recommend this property so much so that We've already booked a return visit in a couple of months.

Two very nice house with big bedrooms. The kitchen had all you need in the way of kitchenware with the exception of too few plastic glasses for the patio and pool area. The management company, Acme, was very responsive and as nice touch provided 12 oz of freshly roasted coffee from Sisters (Oregon). One item of warning - the garage door is the kind that folds outward and is not a rollup. This means the garage can only be used by a vehicle that is less the 6'2" tall. Our Sequoia would not fit. The Tahquitz River Trail is right across the street and is a fun walk. We did it everyday. The neighborhood was quiet and even the remodel going on next door was not disturbing. Interestingly, we had lots of birds in the trees at the rental property and all the neighbors and they serenaded us all day long. Final vote by our family - we would definitely come back again.

The place was perfect- two large bedrooms on opposite ends of the house so you can have your own space. Lots of large windows letting light in. The hot tub is large and the pool is long enough to sort of swim laps whereas most backyard pools are too short for that. There's also real grass and a bunch of places to sit and relax in the yard. The location is nice too with a walk along the riverside just in front of the house. Great place to walk the dog when it starts to cool down in the evening. Would love to go back! Only downside was that we did not have access to the garage door so the car gets very hot in the sun. If we could park the car in the garage, it would be the perfect spot.

The house is better than it looks in the photos. Everything is perfect. Very spacious. On a super quiet street facing the small river. Nice walking trails right out the front door. The pool and jacuzzi were great. Wifi very strong 300 mb+. Great communication with management company. Highly recommend.

Our only suggestions are: 1. Repair seat cushion supports of 3 white dining room chairs we set aside 2. Make sure the guest has the right code for the garage 3. Doggie Gift Box? Our Standard Poodle has the same 30 year old toys as our 3 previous Standards in perfect condition. These are very low impact, soft mouthed canines. The squeakers in the 2 toys in the cute doggie gift box broke within 15 minutes. Why not contract with a local pet shop to provide a toy and non-toxic treat? The gesture of the gift box was awesome but a bit of a waste of money. By utilizing a local shop, you could be supporting the local community and providing quality items - less to live in the landfill. By the way, we always bring our own shampoos, etc. wherever we travel. But the products here are exceptional! What a great surprise! And perhaps warn guests not to walk their pooches in the cool of the morning or evening. The coyotes are making their rounds! We need these predators and should do what we can not to disturb them. Thank you! We love this property and would like to replicate it with only one or two bedrooms.

My husband and I had a great time at Lost Oasis! We drive down to Palm Springs often for quick getaways from the Bay Area. Check-in was super easy and Acme was super responsive and the texting was fantastic. Everything was clear for check in too. We loved the house, location and the Pool area. We walked on the path right outside the house every morning and grilled dinner most evenings. Our days were spend by the pool reading and relaxing; its a very quiet neighborhood (exactly what we needed and wanted). The white chairs on the pool landing were where we had morning coffee and afternoon relaxing under the umbrella - that was so nice!! This house is close to downtown we has a great dinners/lunches there. We also spent some time in Palm Desert and the nearby casino in Cathedral City - all very close and accessible. The layout of the house was great, we needed nothing and the kitchen was super well stocked - we had everything we needed and more. I especially liked playing records when we were cooking dinner and eating inside; very nice touch with frank sinatra and cream albums ;-) This house takes pets so we experienced some allergies in the 2cnd bedroom; we assume it was due to the higher pile rugs that might be holding some dander. We are pet lovers so we understood completely; low pile or no pile rugs might work better. I would recommend this house to anyone looking for the Palm Springs lifestyle - mid century modern- experience and if you like to cook, like we do, you will want...

This property is really nice, in a great neighborhood, hip design (including metal floors, which we've never seen), great layout (two master bedrooms on opposite sides of the house), and the backyard is amazing (and fully enclosed if you have dogs.). There is even one extra tiny room with a twin bed that they do not include in the listing. The management company was very communicative and we appreciated the attention to detail...including leaving a little welcoming kit for our pups and amenities you would get in a hotel, including bathrobes, shampoo/conditioner/lotion, coffee. The washing machine was broken, so the management company arranged to have our laundry picked up and laundered for us off site. The pool was lovely and we loved the wide step in the shallow end with chairs and an umbrella. There was one issue with the plumbing backing up that we had to deal with, which is why we are giving it less than five stars. The management company was super responsive to the issue, but still put a little damper on the last day/night of the trip. But aside from that little hiccup, everything else was really great.

Great MCM house, great location. The house had everything, and the mid century detail was perfect!. As others commented, the uncertainty of exactly when the pool and lawn maintenance was going to arrive, leaves those who want privacy a little on edge. Otherwise, no complaints.

Loved the local, well stocked kitchen & lots of towels. Beds were comfy. Communication with rental agency was great but we had to talk to them daily. In our 5 day stay, we had pest control, tree trimmers, lawn & pool maintenance & plumbers out twice. The water heater needed to be replaced so we only had 2 nights of warm water. We’d still all stay there again.

Really enjoyed the home. It was a quintessential Palm Springs home with beautiful yard. We loved the open concept and outdoor sitting areas. The pool and spa were excellent. The kitchen utensils and cooking-ware were great. The BBQ was challenging as we couldn’t get all the burners working. The shower in the master bath didn’t have quality water pressure. The air conditioning worked well and over all we really enjoyed our stay. I would recommend the property to others!

This is the third year of spending time at Lost Oasis and was as satisfactory this year as it has been in the past. The location is great, the design and amenities of the house of very good and ACME's service was excellent, We had a few normal lmaintenance issues with the forced air heating system and the microwave, and thanks to Andrew, they were taken care of immediately. It was a pleasure to stay there and have it rented again for next year.

Overall Comment There were some issues with our reservation due to COVID we appreciated the company resolving it with us. I do wish though the property was what we expected. We loved the house itself and the location. Truly, we would buy it if it were available. The beds are extremely comfortable, it's really quiet & private and the place itself was very clean. We were so happy to find a super well stocked kitchen. Not with food but with tools & appliances. We love to cook on holiday and that was wonderful (sometimes rentals aren't so great on that). There are lots of great games, puzzles & books throughout the house. It's very traveler-considered. Some not excellent things to know - there is no laundry which was pretty surprising (never had that happen before), the bbq is tiny which is fine but again surprising given the house & comps (we rent a lot in PS), finally the gardener, pool cleaner and trash pickup are upon four different days so you have to be ready to be interrupted on four days each week. I was caught in my underwear once! It would be great if they could consolidate them all to one day. Another thing to know, it's not good or bad, but the floors in the house are metal. We thought it was really cool but it might be a consideration for some travelers. Our issue was the pool. It's an amazing pool. We wish we could have used it. But we were there in December and it never got to temperature. We spoke with the company pretty much every day and it was never resolved. There

The best pool, wonderful trees and great bird watching. We will certainly be back! And Acme does an amazing job, even coming each week to take out the trash cans for pickup. Very responsive and helpful. The first week the A/C went out and they had it fixed in just a few hours. Really great company.

As always, the home was a perfect place to spend several months. Great location next to the Riverside Drive walking path to take the dog and central location to both the north and south sides of Palm Springs make walking and driving easy. The house is clean, contemporary and well furnished with no over the top pastels or movie star photos on the walls. And Acme, also as always, does a fine job and is very responsive if needed.

This property was truly exceptional. Modern mid-century California style that was spotless, comfortable and so easy to vacation in. The house supplied everything our family needed to rest and recharge. The landscaping was serene and coupled with the pool and spa it made for perfection from early morning to late in the evening. The pool temperature allowed for a refreshing swim and the spa heated up quickly enhancing the relaxation experience. Acme was very easy to work with and they provide first-class service. When we return to Palm Springs we will surely call on Acme again. Thank you

Overall Comment Everything was very nice. The only suggestions I would have is to buy better beds, they were very uncomfortable and when you lay in them very noisy from the plastic wrap on the mattress Also, we could not use the Oven - it had some Error message on its screen and we did not know how to clear it to be able to use it. Plus the BBQ is very small and does not work very well

Thank you to the wonderful staff at Acme House for making our 4th of July holiday visit AMAZING AND PERFECT! From our initial inquiry, to check-in and check-out, everything was seamless. We dealt with Camille via email; and Michelle helped us with everything on-site. They were both incredibly helpful and informative. The online photos do not do this place justice - despite the pics being gorgeous! When you see it with your own eyes, you'd think that you arrived in some tropical paradise oasis heaven! The backyard and swimming pool more than what we hoped the pics would be. We basically lived in the backyard our entire 4 day stay! The house is immaculately clean, well stocked with everything you can think of. The master bedroom ensuite bathroom's tub/shower is spectacular! You will love the layout of the interior - the kitchen and living room is all open space and looks out to the pool. The A/C gets as cold as you need it to :) We can't say enough great things about this house. It's definitely one of our best finds/stays EVER. Thank you, Michelle and Camille - we will be back!
