We enjoyed staying in this lovely, centrally located home. The home was beautifully decorated and equipped with everything we needed. The property management company was very responsive and helpful in accommodating our needs.
We enjoyed a short stay to help brace us for a Midwest winter. Wonderful MCM vibe. We heated the pool and spent SO much time outside, it was wonderful.
We had an amazing stay at this house! It was clean, quiet, and the perfect spot for disconnecting and enjoying some much-needed pool time. Highly recommend!
This house was perfect for our stay in Palm Springs! The mid century design and furniture was awesome. The private backyard was a fun place to hang with a few different areas to sit and easy to get to from the sliding glass door in the kitchen. Lots of hummingbirds to watch also! The pool was clean and refreshingly cool. The house had all the essentials, like towels, pots and pans etc. I would definitely stay here again!
Cute and clean space to hang out for the weekend while being in town for stagecoach. Jerry was very attentive to anything we needed. The pool and backyard was perfect. Thanks for having us
Fun mid-century modern home located in a quiet neighborhood with vibrant, playful art & a mountain view from the pool. Plenty of outside space for sun or shade. We had an excellent time.
This place is a true masterpiece. Surrounded by art in every room and immersed in the mid century experience, you canât help but enjoy this place for the total eye candy that it is. After daily outings, it was a wonderful sanctuary to return to for some poolside quiet time. The rental agency was very responsive and check in and check out was effortless. This place was the icing on the cake of our Palm Springs adventure.
We truly enjoyed a very relaxing stay at Googie Ranch. The check-in process was smooth and easy, and the property was just as advertised. We appreciated all of the authentic mid-century modern touches, including the Formica countertops and furniture of the era. The Nat Reed art throughout the house maintained that great vibe. And relaxing by the pool was just awesome!
We truly enjoyed our relaxing stay at the Googie Ranch!
What a delight it was to stay at the Googie Ranch! Bathed in sunlight and lovingly decorated with the striking and whimsical art of Nat Reed, this classic Alexander home is a mid-century modern-lover's dream. If you're looking for a touch of fun, elegance, and mountain views to die for, look no further. The property managers were responsive and helpful throughout our stay....we can't wait to return!
The Pros: The hiuse is very clean, decorated with owners artwork, quiet neighborhood, super close to downtown.
Cons: We wish pool heating was available because the water was way too cold. One of the main reasons we rents the house was to be able to swim. Also, the mid-century furniture, although cool looking, is very uncomfortable. Lastly, many VRBO properties provide minor amenities of bath soap and shampoo. It would be nice for this to have been provided.
Fantastic! 5 stars! A+ Love this property. Can't say enough good things about it and the communication, check-in and check-out. Easy-peasy all the way.
Absolutely love the decor! This mid-century gem is decorated with sense of humor, kitsch, and a genuine appreciation for the era of the home.
The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking. Bring your own spices and you can find just about every pot, pan or utensil you are likely to need. You may want to buy ice unless you're down with cracking old school ice trays like we had when I was young (aging myself here), but really, how big of a deal is that?
The expansive backyard is exceptionally well maintained and has everything you could need for a quiet, relaxing vacation with family or friends. SIX lounge chairs, a grill and a table for four to nosh outside, four additional chairs around the fire pit, a hammock... honestly, what doesn't this property have?
Ok, Palm Springs doesn't let you have raucous parties in the neighborhoods. Tough patooties, folks. Stay downtown for that. Stay here to relax and enjoy the beautiful desert sky overhead while you float in the heated pool. I did.
This house was perfect for our trip with our tween daughters that wanted lots of pool time. The backyard is really incredible. The inside really feels like stepping back in time, in the best way possible. It feels perfectly preserved mid-century without feeling dingy. The pillows are very full, so if thatâs not your jam, bring your own.
Pristine mid-century vacation home â just one issueâŠ
We LOVED Googie Ranch! The vintage furnishings and decor are truly impressive, the home is clean and well maintained, and the secluded back yard and pool are perfect - especially the outdoor shower. The pink poodle paintings were particularly charming! The only real issue we had â which is the reason for the four start rating instead of five â is that the mattresses are not comfortable and need to be replaced. We tried both the primary bedroom (queen) and main guest bedroom (king) â and both felt like they should have been replaced years ago. We did not try the second guest bedroom because that one has two twin beds. One other thing I would mention to the property manager â which is a truly minor issue â is that all of the pool inflatables leaked air and wouldnât stay inflated. Maybe get rid of those and replace them with new (should not be a huge expense). Despite these issues we loved the property so much that we would stay there again.
The Googie Ranch is a great MCM spot in Palm Springs. Itâs eclectically designed with all that you need to have a wonderful stay. It has a nice kitschy mid-century vibe and is located near all the Palm Springs hot spots. Itâs located in a quiet neighborhood of other cool mid-century desert modern homes. it has a nice pool and a nicely decorated patio and backyard. If I could just offer two small suggestions they would be that the bathrooms need to be given some TLC such as re-caulking and re-grouting would help freshen it up a bit. Plus the exterior needs some TLC as well. Overall it was a great stay
My husband and I stayed here for our 39th wedding anniversary! The home was perfect. Conveniently located. Close to airport and downtown. Home was super clean. High-end washer and dryer on site was a big win. We absolutely loved the mid-mod artwork, furniture and overall vibe. Owners/property managers were very responsive to questions and needs. You definitely want to stay here, it will not disappoint. We will certainly stay here again!
The home was perfect for my wife and kids, very clean and all the amenities required for a 4 night stay. Home owner and property manager were available for all questions.
Our family of four (2 adults, 2 young kids) had a fantastic stay. The house was clean, bright, awesome decor, in a quiet neighborhood, a two-minute walk from a playground. The beds were comfy. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans, plates, drinkware, servingware. The backyard was so fun! The firepit was great on nights that weren't too breezy. We had the pool heated ( a must in November), and it was a good size with one end shallow enough for a five and seven year old to stand up in and play. We had a great, relaxing stay and would love to return some day.
The house design and decor is as described, very palm springs, and fun. It had everything we needed and with young kids was a great set up. No problems with the house supplies or process of checking in and out. The host was responsive, even texting late at night during a power outage! However it does feel the house is a bit worn out and could use some updating.
The biggest concern was the cleanliness, especially during the pandemic. High touch areas were clearly dirty upon arrival, so we spent time cleaning the house and doing laundry before being able to enjoy it.
The pool and outdoor space was great, and where we spent most of the time. Overall we had a fun weekend.
My friends and I had a great time at this amazing home. The house was comfortable and the pool was great to use during the hot summer days. The host was very fast at replying and very accommodating. Highly recommend! My friends and I would love to come back soon. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Restored several years ago to reflect the era in which it was built. Vintage furniture and optimistic art by the owner are key elements of this home. Recent updates include terrazzo tile floors, new dishwasher, gas range and washer and dryer.
