All beds are of high quality as are kitchen stainless steel appliances and the bar is equipped with what you need to imbibe in style. 30 acres of natural desert landscape adjacent under towering Mt. San Jacinto mountains.

This is one of Wexler’s best.

60th Birthday Party

A great time at a unique home. Close to restaurants, golf, shopping. Larry communicated with us throughout the stay asking if we needed anything, fantastic host. The home was the perfect venue for my wife’s 60th. Our kids and their spouses were with us and they had a good time as well. The sun was out so we had an opportunity to soak up some rays as well.

Magical Mid-Century Modern!

This beautiful home was fulfilled in its mid-century modern vision, from the neighborhood, furniture, decor, and architecture, down to its awesome vinyl collection. It felt like we got a glamorous glimpse into Palm Springs past but it also has all of the modern conveniences such as wifi, large TV screens and a modern kitchen. We enjoyed it, thoroughly, as well as Larry the owner. I would give it six stars if I could.

Modernism Week - 2022

The perfect place to stay during Palm Springs Modernism Week. We (3 couples) enjoyed a comfortable stay in a period correct Wexler home. And, the house is decorated and to set the "vibe" it is filled with 50's memorabilia. Larry (our host) was helpful and available. We texted and spoke on the phone several times during our stay for his suggestions and recommendations. As a bonus, in addition to the pool area there are several other outdoor seating / entertainment areas around the home you'll want to explore.
