The Neighborhood:
Welcome to Sunrise Park!! Close to Downtown! (read more below)

The Sunrise Park Neighborhood has some of ​the ​best examples of mid century​ modern architecture and ranch style​ ​homes in Palm Springs. ​

Architects Roy Burton, Hugh Kaptur, and William Cody loved the neighborhood so much that they each built their own homes there.​

* ​I​n fact, our home is located next door to the William Cody residence.

You'll be pleasantly surprised when you discover​ our neighborhood.​ ​Sunrise Park i​s ​centrally located, nestled conveniently within one mile of the Palm Springs Airport​,​ and​ less than a mile to ​the ​​Downtown Village dining and shopping area​ and the Uptown Design District​.

There​ is​ plenty to do​ and see​ within an easy bike (or walk!) ride.​ Convenience is what residents love about this neighborhood.​ ​Discover it for yourself!

The Sunrise Park​ neighborhood​ lies between Alejo Road to the north, Ramon Road to the south, Farrell Drive on the east, and Sunrise Way on the west.

The spa is heated on demand and included in your rental rate. Pool systems are monitored remotely.

NOTE: Host will not be able to provide any refunds for occasional nonworking pool heating that occurs during your stay but we will do our best to have it solved in a timely manner. Please notify us asap!

The pool can get dirty very quickly at times due to wind and desert weather. A company cleans the pool and spa twice a week.  We will do our best to accommodate any additional cleaning needs including the provided skimmer.


NOISE:

- The convenience of our location to the airport does come with an occasional sound of airplanes. However, we are NOT beneath any flight path.

- We are located in a quiet residential neighborhood therefore it is important to stay within the noise ordinances. Please remember we are surrounded by mountains and voices can easily carry.

QUIET TIME is between 10pm and 10am. Please consider moving indoors after 10pm. If you choose to be outside, please be considerate of the neighbors and use low voices.

Please, don’t bring speakers outside. Per the city of Palm Springs: "Audible music, or music that can be heard from the property line, is strictly forbidden in vacation rentals in the Palm Springs area." (that includes music coming from inside of the home.) If your neighbors can hear music, you are in violation of the City Ordinance and guests will be cited and fined."
